Black Diamond Reports US FDA’s IND Clearance for BDTX-1535 to Treat Gliobastoma and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Shots:
- The US FDA has cleared an IND application to initiate a P-I study of BDTX-1535 (master key inhibitor of EGFR) in patients with Gliobastoma & NSCLC. The study is expected to initiate in Q1’22 & clinical update in H2’23
- In pre-clinical studies, the therapy showed an oncogenic alteration of EGFR in GBM resulted in distinct conformations with pharmacology & drug resistance. In cell-based assays, BDTX-1535 showed selective inhibitor of EGFR mutations in GBM & NSCLC, favorable brain-penetrant PK profile in animal models
- The results showed dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition & complete regression in intracranial GBM & lung cancer drug resistance models that expressed targeted EGFR mutations
