Nuvectis Pharma (NVCT) said Thursday its phase 1b trial to evaluate NXP800 in patients with platinum-resistant ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer demonstrated antitumor activity, including tumor shrinkage.
"The antitumor activity observed despite patients' advanced disease and extensive pre-treatment, while controlling for thrombocytopenia, is promising," said Ron Bentsur, CEO of Nuvectis.
The company expects to report additional clinical data from the trial in Q2 of next year, Bentsur said.
NXP800 was granted orphan drug designation by the US Food and Drug Administration in August.
Nuvectis Pharma shares were 54% lower in recent premarket trading.
