Alpha Tau Submits First Pre-Market Approval Module to the FDA for Alpha DaRT® for the Treatment of Recurrent Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC)

On January 5, 2026 Alpha Tau Medical Ltd. (Nasdaq: DRTS, DRTSW) ("Alpha Tau", or the "Company"), the developer of the innovative alpha-radiation cancer therapy Alpha DaRT reported the submission of the first module of its pre-market approval (PMA) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), following the FDA’s previous decision to allow the Company to use the more flexible modular approach. The Company submitted the module as part of an application for the use of Alpha DaRT in treating recurrent cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), the second most common form of skin cancer, for patients not indicated for surgery or standard radiation therapy, and for whom no curative systemic treatment is available. This module is focused on comprehensive documentation with respect to non-clinical studies as required under the PMA application.

Uzi Sofer, CEO of Alpha Tau, stated, "Alpha Tau continues its fast pace of activity, charging forward in our pursuit of potential marketing authorizations across a wide range of tumors, with an eye toward future commercialization. The decision by the FDA to allow us to submit our PMA in a modular form will hopefully allow for ongoing FDA review and feedback as each module is submitted, and we look forward to this dynamic and efficient authorization review process with the FDA."

Yaniv Sagie, VP Quality and Regulatory Affairs, added, "Thank you to our outstanding team for this great accomplishment, our first PMA module submission, and for all of the other achievements working with regulators around the world. I appreciate the support of our advisors who work closely with us and hope to accomplish great things for Alpha Tau together."

Alpha Tau is currently conducting its multi-center pivotal ReSTART study exploring the use of Alpha DaRT in recurrent cSCC, one of five clinical trials currently approved in the U.S., and anticipates completing patient recruitment in Q1 2026. Alpha Tau has received Breakthrough Device Designation from the FDA in this indication as well as for recurrent glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity with similar criteria, and is also part of the FDA Total Product Life Cycle Advisory Program (TAP) to accelerate market access for the potential treatment of recurrent GBM.

Dr. Rosenthal will provide an overview of the company and its lead program, VGA039, a first-in-class monoclonal antibody therapy that targets Protein S, with dual actions promoting platelet attachment and enhancing fibrin deposition to restore hemostasis. VGA039 has potential to be a universal hemostatic therapy that can treat numerous bleeding disorders, starting with von Willebrand disease (VWD), and is currently being evaluated in a pivotal Phase 3 study for the treatment of VWD. Interim data from the ongoing Phase 1/2 multidose study of VGA039 in VWD were presented at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) (Free ASH Whitepaper) Annual Meeting in December 2025, demonstrating substantial bleed reductions in all patients, across all types of VWD and all types of bleeds.

Insilico Medicine Announce US$888 Million Multi-Year Collaboration with Servier for Drug Discovery and Development in Oncology

On January 4, 2026 Insilico Medicine ("Insilico"), a world-leading artificial intelligence (AI)-driven drug discovery company, reported a multi-year research and development (R&D) collaboration with Servier, an independent international pharmaceutical company governed by a foundation. This strategic alliance is focused on identifying and developing novel therapeutics for challenging targets in the oncology space by leveraging Insilico’s proprietary AI platform, Pharma.AI.

Under the agreement, Insilico will be eligible to receive up to US$32 million in upfront and near-term R&D payments and will lead the AI-driven discovery and development of potential drug candidates that meet predefined criteria, while Servier will share the R&D expenses and lead clinical validation and commercialization processes.

"This collaboration underscores Servier’s commitment to applying cutting-edge technologies to address unmet medical needs for the benefit of patients and reflects our confidence in Insilico’s internally developed and validated AI platform", said Christophe Thurieau, Executive Director Research at Servier.

"I am excited to see the collaboration—it is yet another strong acknowledgment of our AI capabilities and R&D expertise", said Alex Zhavoronkov, PhD, founder, CEO and CBO of Insilico Medicine. "As we deepen the integration of generative AI into every stage of the pharma value chain, I believe the future of pharmaceutical superintelligence is never so close, where AI agents could actually make decisions and design experiments, driving a virtuous cycle of faster, smarter, and safer drug development."

Insilico has extensive experience in AI-driven oncology drug discovery and development. The company has established a robust oncology pipeline that targets multiple cancer indications, leveraging both moderately novel and well-established mechanisms. Among its most promising assets, the potential best-in-class pan-TEAD inhibitor ISM6331 and the MAT2A inhibitor ISM3412 are both undergoing global, multicenter Phase I clinical trials. Additionally, four other oncology programs have been fully or partially out-licensed to partners, with Phase I clinical trials actively in progress.

Harnessing state-of-the-art AI and automation technologies, Insilico has significantly improved the efficiency of preclinical drug development, setting a benchmark for AI-driven drug R&D. While traditional early-stage drug discovery typically requires an average of 4.5 years, Insilico has nominated 20 preclinical candidates from 2021 to 2024, with an average timeline—from project initiation to preclinical candidate (PCC) nomination—of just 12 to 18 months per program, with only 60 to 200 molecules synthesized and tested in each program.
