TuHURA Biosciences und Kintara Therapeutics (Nasdaq: KTRA) haben bekannt gegeben, dass Kineta Inc. die Teilnahme an der VISTA-101 Phase 1/2 klinischen Studie zur Evaluierung von KVA12123 bei Patienten mit fortgeschrittenem soliden Tumorkrebs wieder geöffnet hat. Die Studie hat 30 von 39 geplanten Patienten rekrutiert, einschließlich eines Monotherapie-Arms und eines Kombinationsarms mit Mercks KEYTRUDA®. Kineta erwartet, die vollständige Rekrutierung bis Ende 2024 abzuschließen.

KVA12123 hat vielversprechende erste Ergebnisse gezeigt, darunter partielle Ansprechrate und stabile Erkrankung in den Kombinationskohorten und dauerhafte stabile Erkrankung in den Monotherapie-Kohorten. Das Medikament hat ein günstiges Sicherheitsprofil mit keinen dosislimitierenden Toxizitäten oder Zytokinfreisetzungssyndrom gezeigt. TuHURA befindet sich derzeit in der Due Diligence für den möglichen Erwerb von KVA12123 von Kineta, nach einer nicht rückzahlbaren Zahlung von 5 Millionen Dollar und einer vereinbarten exklusiven Verhandlung.

Positive
  • KVA12123 has shown partial response and stable disease in combination cohorts
  • Durable stable disease observed in monotherapy cohorts
  • Favorable clinical safety and tolerability profile with no dose limiting toxicities
  • No evidence of cytokine release syndrome at any dose level
  • TuHURA made a $5 million nonrefundable payment to Kineta for exclusive negotiation rights
Negative
  • Trial enrollment not yet complete, with 30 out of 39 projected patients enrolled
  • Full enrollment not expected until the end of 2024
  • Potential acquisition of KVA12123 by TuHURA is still under due diligence and not finalized

The reopening of enrollment for the VISTA-101 clinical trial is a positive development for KVA12123's progress. With 30 out of 39 projected patients enrolled, the trial is nearing completion, potentially accelerating the development timeline. The absence of dose-limiting toxicities and cytokine release syndrome in initial results is encouraging for the drug's safety profile.

The partial response and stable disease observed in combination cohorts, along with durable stable disease in monotherapy, suggest promising efficacy. However, it's important to note that these are early results and more comprehensive data will be needed to fully assess the drug's potential. The synergies with TuHURA's IFx and Delta receptor technologies could enhance the asset's value if acquired, potentially leading to novel combination therapies.

TuHURA's $5 million non-refundable payment for exclusivity rights demonstrates strong interest in KVA12123. This strategic move could position TuHURA for a significant pipeline expansion with a potentially Phase 2-ready asset. The October 1, 2024 deadline (with possible extension) for the exclusive negotiation period creates a clear timeline for investors to watch.

For Kineta, this deal provides immediate capital infusion and potential for a larger acquisition, which could be a catalyst for its stock. The resumed trial enrollment is likely to maintain investor interest and potentially increase the asset's value if positive data continues to emerge. However, investors should be cautious as the acquisition is not guaranteed and the trial's final results will be important for determining KVA12123's true value.

30 of a projected 39 patients have been enrolled in the clinical trial to date, including a monotherapy arm with KVA12123 and a combination arm utilizing KVA12123 together with Merck's anti-PD1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab)

Kineta anticipates the trial to be fully enrolled by the end of 2024

TAMPA, Fla. & SAN DIEGO, August 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- TuHURA Biosciences, Inc. ("TuHURA"), a Phase 3 registration-stage immune-oncology company developing novel technologies to overcome resistance to cancer immunotherapy, and Kintara Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: KTRA) ("Kintara"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of new solid tumor cancer therapies, today announced that Kineta, Inc. (Nasdaq: KA) ("Kineta"), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of novel immunotherapies in oncology that address cancer immune resistance, has reopened enrollment in its ongoing VISTA-101 Phase 1/2 clinical trial. As previously announced on July 8, 2024, TuHURA entered into an Exclusivity and Right of First Offer Agreement (the "Agreement") with Kineta for the potential acquisition of Kineta's KVA12123 VISTA blocking antibody and related rights and assets associated with and derived from the asset. Kineta and TuHURA are cooperating on the reinitiation of patient enrollment into this trial during TuHURA's due diligence period with respect to the KVA12123 assets.

To date, KVA12123 has cleared the fifth of six monotherapy dose levels and two of the four cohorts in combination with Merck's anti-PD1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab). Initial results demonstrating partial response and stable disease in the combination cohorts, and durable stable disease observed in monotherapy cohorts, were reported earlier this year at the American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2024. Additionally, the initial results of KVA12123 showed a favorable clinical safety and tolerability profile with no dose limiting toxicities and no evidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS)-associated cytokines at any dose level.

Dr. James Bianco, Chief Executive Officer of TuHURA commented, "We believe KVA12123 has the potential to be a promising new treatment alternative for patients with cancer. Importantly, KVA12123 has demonstrated multiple synergies with both of our IFx and Delta receptor technologies and could be a promising addition to our pipeline, bringing in a potential Phase 2 ready, novel checkpoint inhibitor. The expected completion of the enrollment in the Phase 1 portion of the VISTA-101 trial this year is an important milestone in the continued advancement of this program, and we are pleased to work closely with the Kineta team to get patient enrollment underway again as we continue to investigate the possibility of acquiring this asset under the Agreement." 

"We have made noteworthy progress with the trial, and the data seen to date have demonstrated KVA12123 has been well tolerated with no dose limiting toxicities and no cytokine release syndrome. We are very pleased to resume enrollment for VISTA-101 and are focused on the successful execution and working towards completing enrollment which we expect to do by the end of 2024," said Thierry Guillaudeux, Chief Scientific Officer of Kineta.

As previously announced, under the terms of the Agreement, Kineta received a $5 million nonrefundable payment from TuHURA. Pursuant to the Agreement, among other things, Kineta has granted TuHURA an exclusive right to discuss and negotiate with Kineta the potential acquisition of Kineta's worldwide patents, patent rights, patent applications, product and development program assets, technical and business information, and other rights and assets associated with and derived from its development program related to KVA12123. This exclusive right shall continue through the first to occur of (a) the execution of any definitive agreement with respect to a potential transaction by TuHURA or one or more of its affiliates and (b) 11:59 PM Eastern Time on October 1, 2024, subject to extension for an additional 20 days. TuHURA is currently engaging in due diligence under the Agreement.

About KVA12123

KVA12123 is a VISTA blocking immunotherapy in development as an infusion dosed every two weeks being evaluated in an ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial both as a monotherapy and in combination with Merck's anti-PD1 therapy, KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab), in patients with advanced treatment refractory, solid tumors. Competitive therapies targeting VISTA have demonstrated either poor monotherapy anti-tumor activity in preclinical models or induction of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in human clinical trials. Through the combination of unique epitope binding and an optimized IgG1 Fc region, KVA12123 demonstrates strong monotherapy tumor growth inhibition in preclinical models without evidence of CRS in clinical trial participants. KVA12123 has been shown to de-risk the VISTA target and provides a novel approach to address immune suppression in the TME with a mechanism of action that is differentiated and complementary with T cell focused therapies. KVA12123 may be an effective immunotherapy for many types of cancer and represents the introduction of a new class of checkpoint inhibitors.

VISTA (V-domain Ig suppressor of T-cell activation) is a negative immune checkpoint that suppresses T cell function in a variety of solid tumors. High VISTA expression in tumor correlates with poor survival in cancer patients and has been associated with a lack of response to other immune checkpoint inhibitors. Blocking VISTA induces an efficient polyfunctional immune response to address immunosuppression and drives anti-tumor responses.

As previously announced, TuHURA entered into a definitive agreement for an all-stock transaction with Kintara to form a company combining expertise and resources to advance a risk diversified late-stage oncology pipeline. The combined company will focus on advancing TuHURA's personalized cancer vaccine(s) and first-in-class bi-functional ADCs, two technologies that seek to overcome the major obstacles that limit the effectiveness of current immunotherapies in treating cancer. The combined company is expected to operate under the name "TuHURA Biosciences, Inc." and to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker "HURA." The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including stockholder approval of both companies, and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2024.

About TuHURA Biosciences, Inc.

TuHURA Biosciences, Inc. is a Phase 3 registration-stage immuno-oncology company developing novel technologies to overcome resistance to cancer immunotherapy. TuHURA's lead personalized cancer vaccine candidate, IFx-2.0, is designed to overcome primary resistance to checkpoint inhibitors. TuHURA is preparing to initiate a single randomized placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration trial of IFx-2.0 administered as an adjunctive therapy to Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in first line treatment for advanced or metastatic Merkel Cell Carcinoma.

In addition to its cancer vaccine product candidates, TuHURA is leveraging its Delta receptor technology to develop first-in-class bi-functional ADCs, targeting Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells to inhibit their immune suppressing effects on the tumor microenvironment to prevent T cell exhaustion and acquired resistance to checkpoint inhibitors and cellular therapies.
