GenFleet Therapeutics (Shanghai) (HKG:2595) said Thursday its oral drug, GFH375, is now in the phase III stage of testing in China to treat a specific mutation of pancreatic cancer and non-small cell lung cancer after receiving breakthrough therapy designations for pancreatic, lung, and colorectal cancers, according to a same-day bourse filing.
Additionally, GenFleet's international partner Verastem is planning to open a registrational phase III study of the drug in combination with anti-EGFR therapy or chemotherapy, after the company's study designs met the U.S. FDA's criteria.
Shares of the company were up nearly 3% in midday trading.
