NPX887 is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting HHLA2 (B7-H7), a novel immune checkpoint and tumor target antigen. It is being evaluated for non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma & other solid tumor types known to express HHLA2/B7-H7.
The funds aim to support the clinical development of NPX267 for the treatment of patients with metastatic solid tumors including (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer and HHLA2 expressing metastatic malignant neoplasm.
NextPoint investigational product NPX887 is a fully human monoclonal antibody targeting HHLA2 (B7-H7). Currently evaluating under the IND enabling stage for the treatment of solid tumors known to express HHLA2, a tumor antigen strongly upregulated in many human cancers.
NPX267 is a first-in-class monoclonal antibody targeting KIR3DL3, the inhibitory receptor for the HHLA2 pathway (B7-H7), and is designed to prevent immune escape in solid tumors.
The financing will be used to advance NextPoint’s two lead precision immuno-oncology programs into the clinic, both targeting the newly discovered HHLA2 pathway to activate anti-tumor immune responses.
