NAYA Biosciences (NASDAQ: NAYA) announced the expansion of its bifunctional antibody pipeline with NY-500, a novel PD-1 x VEGF tetravalent bifunctional antibody for treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other solid tumors. The company is developing NY-500 using its proprietary FLEX antibody platform and optimizing it through an AI partnership with MabSilico.
Recent clinical data with ivonescimab, a similar PD-1 x VEGF antibody, has demonstrated superiority over Keytruda® in non-small-cell lung cancer treatment. NAYA aims to initiate clinical trials for NY-500 in early 2026.
Additionally, NAYA is developing NY-303, a GPC3-targeting bifunctional antibody, currently in phase 1/2 clinical trials for HCC patients not responding to PD-1 +/- VEGF therapy. Recent data presented at SITC showed NY-303's ability to reverse resistance to PD-1 checkpoint blockage. Phase 1/2a clinical trials for NY-303 are expected to begin in 2025.

The second presentation showcases a Graph AI model analyzing GPC3 gene expression and NK cell tumor infiltration's influence on hepatocellular carcinoma survival rates. These insights support the planned Phase I/IIa clinical trials in H1 2025.
