Zai Lab's stock surged 5.05% during intraday trading following the announcement of a significant clinical partnership.
The company has entered into a collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim to develop an innovative dual DLL3-targeting combination therapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The partnership will evaluate Zai Lab's ADC drug, zocilurtatug pelitecan, in combination with Boehringer Ingelheim's T-cell engager, obrixtamig.
Investor sentiment was bolstered by recent positive Phase I clinical results for Zai Lab's drug candidate, which demonstrated potent and durable responses in previously treated patients, including those with brain metastases, alongside a favorable safety profile. This progress has enabled the program to advance into a global Phase III registrational study.
