About Avacta - https://avacta.com/ (https://avacta.com/)
Avacta Therapeutics is a clinical-stage life sciences company expanding the
reach of highly potent cancer therapies through its proprietary pre|CISION®
platform. pre|CISION® is a payload delivery system based on a tumor-specific
protease (Fibroblast Activation Protein or FAP) that is designed to
concentrate highly potent payloads in the tumor microenvironment while sparing
normal tissues. Avacta's innovative pre|CISION® peptide drug conjugates (PDC)
are a novel entry to the XDC drug class, leveraging the success of antibody
drug conjugates with alternative methods of delivery beyond antibodies.
Our pre|CISION® PDCs leverage this tumor-specific release mechanism to
provide unique benefits over traditional antibody drug conjugates, releasing
active payload in the tumor and reducing systemic exposure and toxicity which
enables dosing to be optimized to deliver the best outcomes for patients. The
lead clinical program is faridoxorubicin (AVA6000), a Gen One FAP-enabled
pre|CISION® version of doxorubicin that delivers the payload directly in the
tumor with limited peripheral blood exposure and has demonstrated preliminary
activity in tumor types sensitive to doxorubicin including salivary gland
cancer and soft tissue sarcoma.
