Ambrx Biopharma said Wednesday that the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration has granted Fast Track designation to its
proprietary anti-PSMA antibody-drug conjugate investigational
therapy, ARX517.
The company's ARX517 is intended for the treatment of patients
with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer upon
progression on an androgen receptor pathway inhibitor.
Fast Track designation is a process designed to help the
development and expedite the review of drugs which may demonstrate
substantial improvement over available therapy for serious
conditions with unmet medical need.
Ambrx said ARX517 is currently being studied in a Phase 1/2,
first-in-human, open label dose escalation and dose expansion trial
enrolling patients with mCRPC whose tumors have progressed on at
least two prior FDA approved treatments for prostate cancer.
