Under the collaboration, Araris will use its proprietary linker-conjugation platform to generate next-generation novel ADCs against undisclosed targets provided by Taiho.
Under the agreement, Taiho will obtain option rights for PhOx430, a first-in-class small molecule targeting GnT-V and additional undisclosed compounds and to exclusively develop and commercialize the compounds in Japan and certain other territories in Asia.
TS-1 is a combination of three pharmacological compounds: tegafur, an antimetabolite agent that, after absorption by the gastrointestinal tract, is converted into the anticancer agent fluorouracil (5-FU); gimeracil (5-chloro-2, 4-dihydroxypyridine, or CDHP).
Taiho has also completed its acquisition of Cullinan Oncology’s subsidiary, Cullinan Pearl Corp. (Cullinan Pearl) which has worldwide rights outside of Japan* to CLN-081/TAS6417.
Vepafestinib (TAS0953/HM06) is an investigational, potent, orally administered, highly selective RET inhibitor, is pharmacologically distinct, exhibits a distinct binding mode to RET, and has shown evidence of enhanced brain penetrability characteristics in preclinical model.
TAS6417 (CLN-081), is designed as a next-generation, irreversible EGFR inhibitor for the treatment of a genetically defined subset of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Under the agreement, Taiho will acquire Cullinan Oncology’s subsidiary, Cullinan Pearl, which has worldwide rights outside of Japan* to CLN-081/TAS6417, EGFR exon20 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) regulatory milestones.
The approval is based on results of a Phase III clinical study (CONSOLE6) comparing the efficacy and safety of Arokaris® versus fosaprepitant in patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy in combination with palonosetron and dexamethasone.
Taiho exercised its option for anti-TIGIT antibodies domvanalimab (development code: AB154) and AB308 from Arcus Biosciences (“Arcus”), in Japan and certain other territories in Asia (excluding China).
Taiho Pharmaceutical has submitted to the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare a new drug application for an NK1 receptor antagonist antiemetic drug for gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea and vomiting) associated with cancer chemotherapy.
