Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals for Afuresertib
The combination therapy consists of Laekna’s afuresertib (LAE002), a highly selective ATP competitive AKT inhibitor in clinical trials with favorable efficacy and safety profile, and Innovent’s PD-1 inhibitor sintilimab (TYVYT), which has been approved for six indications.
LAE002 (Afuresertib) a potent next-generation small molecule pan-AKT kinase inhibitor in combination with sintilimab and chemotherapy, targets patients with specific solid tumors who have been refractory to treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
Afuresertib is a clinically proven, highly potent small-molecule pan-AKT inhibitor. Afuresertib is being studied in global clinical studies in four different cancers including ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, triple-negative breast cancer, and HR+/HER2- breast cancer.
The companies will work together to conduct clinical studies assessing the combination of sintilimab and afuresertib (LAE002) in patients with multiple types of solid tumors that have been refractory-or failed to respond-to treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.
According to the agreement, CMAB will provide a full spectrum of CMC services based on the recognized global quality standards for Laekna Therapeutics’ anti-PD-L1 antibody (LAE005).
