– INX-315 is a novel, potent and selective inhibitor of CDK2 with compelling pre-clinical efficacy and safety data
– First-in-human, Phase 1/2 study of INX-315 in patients with ER+/HER2- breast cancer who have progressed on a CDK4/6i regimen and CCNE1-amplified solid tumors that have progressed on standard of care treatment
– Incyclix expects to initiate the study during the 1st quarter of 2023
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Feb. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Incyclix Bio, LLC, a next-generation cell cycle control company, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared an investigational new drug (IND) application for the Company’s lead compound, INX-315, a novel, potent and selective CDK2 inhibitor. The Phase 1/2 first-in-human study (INX-315-01) will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary antitumor activity of INX-315 in patients with advanced/metastatic cancers.
“CDK2 is a known driver of cancer cell proliferation and a target with broad clinical potential,” said Patrick Roberts, Pharm.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Incyclix Bio. “The approval of our IND for INX-315 is a significant milestone in our mission to advance the care of cancer patients through the development of precision treatments that regain cell cycle control.”
INX-315-01 is a first-in-human, Phase 1/2 open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study that will enroll patients with ER+/HER2- breast cancer that has progressed on a prior CDK4/6i regimen and patients with CCNE1-amplified solid tumors that have progressed on standard of care treatment. The study will be conducted in the United States and Australia.
