targeted anti-cancer therapeutics
IMPACT Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of targeted anti-cancer therapeutics based on synthetic lethality. Impact has assembled one of the most comprehensive DNA damage response (DDR) global pipeline of novel drug candidates generated by in-house discovery efforts and is expanding to other novel synthetic lethality targets to broaden its pipeline.
IMPACT pipeline products include PARP inhibitor (Senaparib/ IMP4297), WEE1 inhibitor (IMP7068), ATR inhibitor (IMP9064)，PARP1 selective inhibitor (IMP1734, in collaboration with Eikon Therapeutics) and other novel DDR pathway inhibitors. The lead clinical program, PARP inhibitor (Senaparib/ IMP4297), is in Phase II/III studies for ovarian cancer, small cell lung cancer and other indications worldwide, including China. Senaparib’ s preliminary clinical data demonstrated superior tolerability and wider therapeutic window compared with other marketed PARPi. The phase III clinical study of Senaparib for advanced ovarian cancer maintenance treatment following first-line therapy met primary endpoint, with best-in-class efficacy and safety profile, and its NDA has been accepted by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). IMPACT Therapeutics presented pivotal phase 3 clinical data for Senaparib as first-line maintenance therapy in advanced ovarian cancer patients and preliminary clinical data for Senaparib in BRCA1/2 mutated recurrent platinum sensitive ovarian cancer at ESMO Congress 2023. IMPACT is conducted phase I/II study of WEE1 inhibitor (IMP7068) globally and presented preliminary clinical data at ESMO Congress 2023. ATR inhibitor (IMP9064) has also been undergoing phase I clinical studies in multiple countries and regions including United States and China and results of monotherapy dose escalation of FIH study was presented at ESMO 2023.
