<\/p>\n
Paris (France), 20 November 2018 \u2013\u00a0<\/b>Ipsen (Euronext: IPN; ADR: IPSEY) and 3BP today announced the first patient has been dosed in a Phase I\/II study for the first-in-class radionuclide\u00a0177Lu-IPN01087 (formerly known as 3BP-227). IPN01087 is a compound that targets cancer cells in patients with advanced solid tumors which express the Neurotensin Receptor Subtype 1 (NTSR1). <\/p>\n
The key objective of the Phase I dose-escalation trial (EUDRACT Number 2017-001263-20) is to evaluate the safety and activity, as well as to identify the optimum systemically-administered dose of radiation to treat patients with any of the following solid tumors expressing NTSR1: pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, Ewing sarcoma and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
Alexandre Lebeaut, Executive Vice President, R&D and Chief Scientific Officer, Ipsen,<\/b>\u00a0said:\u00a0\u201cIpsen is committed to bringing to cancer patients innovative systemic radiation therapy with targeted radiopharmaceuticals. We are pleased to report progress of the development of IPN01087 in this Phase I\/II study. Our targeted theranostic approach \u2013 which we are advancing in partnership with 3B Pharmaceuticals- provides a novel and exciting potential therapeutic solution for unmet medical needs across a number of solid tumours.\u201d<\/em>
\u201c<\/em>This is a great milestone for IPN01087 and for 3B Pharmaceuticals,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0said\u00a0Dr. Ulrich Reineke, Managing Director of 3BP<\/b>.\u00a0\u201cWe are pleased that the compound is in clinical trials and we remain passionate about systemic radiation therapy and its potential to improve patients\u2019 lives.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"template":"","categories":[1763],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34271","press_release","type-press_release","status-publish","hentry","category-corporate-pressrelease","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
