HENLIUS (Stock Code: 02696) Announces IND Approval for KAT6A/B Inhibitor HLX97 in Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors

Bulletin Express03-05

Shanghai Henlius Biotech, Inc. announced that its investigational new drug application for HLX97 (a KAT6A/B small molecule inhibitor) has been approved by the National Medical Products Administration to commence a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. According to the announcement, HLX97 was developed to inhibit the activity of the lysine acetyltransferases KAT6A/B, which are considered significant in the progression of certain tumor types. Breast cancer studies suggest that suppressing KAT6 may help overcome resistance to endocrine therapy.

The announcement observes that there is no existing global approval for a KAT6A/B small molecule inhibitor, highlighting the potential significance of this therapy. The company states it cannot guarantee successful development or commercialization, and advises shareholders and potential investors to exercise caution when dealing in its shares.
