NKT3447 is an oral, selective inhibitor of CDK2 which reduces cyclin E expression. It is being evaluated for the treatment of patients with cancers driven by cyclin E amplification or overexpression.
The collaboration aims to evaluate NKT2152, a small molecule that inhibits hypoxia inducible factor 2α (HIF2α), in combination with standard-of-care Tecentriq (atezolizumab) and Avastin (bevacizumab) in first-line treatment of unresectable/advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
Under the terms of the agreement, Hansoh will be responsible for all the development costs for NKT2152 in Greater China and will receive the exclusive rights to develop and commercialize NKT2152 in the region.
The anti-tumor effect observed in several xenograft models suggests NKT2152, a HIF2α inhibitor, may have broader activity in other solid tumors beyond ccRCC that lack a VHL gene deficiency.
The collaboration with NiKang, will play an important role in the advancement of both tivozanib and NKT2152 program. Under the terms of the agreement, NiKang will sponsor the trial and AVEO will co-fund the trial. Both companies will provide its respective drugs at no cost.
