Under the IND, the company plans to initiate a Phase 1/2 first-in-human, open-label clinical study later this year. The Phase 1 portion will assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary clinical activity of AVZO-103 as a single agent and in combination therapy in patients with advanced solid tumors.

"The clearance of our IND for AVZO-103 marks our third IND clearance this year, highlighting the productivity and dedication of our R&D team," said Mohammad Hirmand, M.D., Co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of Avenzo Therapeutics. "This bispecific ADC is designed to simultaneously target Nectin4 and TROP2 to potentially enhance tumor cell killing while sparing normal tissue. We look forward to studying its potential to address significant unmet needs for patients with cancers that co-express these targets, including urothelial cancer."

"We are excited to assess this combination in the clinic as we seek to establish palazestrant as a potential backbone endocrine therapy for metastatic breast cancer," said Sean P. Bohen, M.D., Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Olema Oncology. "Based on the promising profiles of palazestrant and atirmociclib to date, we look forward to evaluating the potential of this novel combination and, if successful, advancing to a pivotal trial in the frontline setting. With OPERA-01, our first pivotal study of palazestrant, underway and our OPERA-02 ribociclib combination trial in frontline metastatic breast cancer anticipated to initiate this quarter, we remain focused on achieving our goal of transforming the metastatic breast cancer treatment paradigm."

Under the terms of the agreement, Pfizer will supply atirmociclib for use in the Phase 1b/2 study and Olema will lead the conduct of the study. All clinical data and inventions relating to the combined use of atirmociclib and palazestrant resulting from the study will be jointly owned, with Olema maintaining full global commercial and marketing rights to palazestrant.

This announcement represents Olema’s second clinical trial agreement with Pfizer. The companies’ previous agreement was established in November 2020 to evaluate palazestrant in combination with palbociclib (IBRANCE) in patients with recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic ER+/HER2- breast cancer.

"Today’s approval of TIVDAK marks an important milestone for Zai Lab, further strengthening our Women’s franchise in Greater China," said Andrew Zhu, Chief Commercial Officer, Greater China, Zai Lab. "Treatment options for patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer after initial therapy are limited.

With our established commercial infrastructure for ZEJULA in Hong Kong, we are uniquely positioned to ensure TIVDAK reaches patients without delay."

TIVDAK is currently under regulatory review for its Biologics License Application by China’s National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), which was accepted in March 2025.

About TIVDAK (tisotumab vedotin-tftv)

TIVDAK (tisotumab vedotin) is an ADC composed of Genmab’s human monoclonal antibody directed to tissue factor (TF) and Pfizer’s ADC technology that utilizes a protease-cleavable linker that covalently attaches the microtubule-disrupting agent monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) to the antibody. Nonclinical data suggest that the anticancer activity of tisotumab vedotin is due to the binding of the ADC to TF-expressing cancer cells, followed by internalization of the ADC-TF complex, and release of MMAE via proteolytic cleavage. MMAE disrupts the microtubule network of actively dividing cells, leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. In vitro, tisotumab vedotin also mediates antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.

TIVDAK received full approval from U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in April 2024 for adult patients with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with disease progression on or after chemotherapy.

Zai Lab has an exclusive license from Seagen Inc., acquired by Pfizer, to develop and commercialize TIVDAK in Greater China (mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, collectively).
