Loxo@Lilly Unveils Three New Oncology Programs at 2023 AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics
- Loxo@Lilly announces preclinical data for new oncology agents targeting KRAS G12D and Nectin-4
- New molecules planned to enter clinical trials next year
- Highly potent and selective KRAS G12D inhibitor and pan-KRAS inhibitors with selectivity over HRAS and NRAS
- Next-generation antibody drug conjugate targeting Nectin-4
- None.
The poster presentations will include preclinical characterization data for a highly potent inhibitor of KRAS G12D that is selective against wild-type KRAS, a highly potent and isoform-selective pan-KRAS inhibitor with activity against a broad spectrum of the most common activating KRAS mutations and high selectivity over wild-type HRAS and NRAS, and a fully human monoclonal anti-Nectin-4 antibody conjugated to a topoisomerase I (TOPO 1) inhibitor.
"This marks the first preclinical data for three of the new molecules planned to enter clinical trials next year in areas of cancer biology with continued need for new and better treatment options," said Jacob Van Naarden, president, Loxo@Lilly. "These new programs represent years of focused work to create differentiated molecules against exacting target product profiles. We look forward to moving these programs into the clinic over the next year."
