Recently, Haichuang Pharmaceuticals announced that the company has introduced a potential "first-in-class" new drug under development from Germany's amcure GmbH, the clinical trial application of HP558 injection has been formally approved by the National Food and Drug Administration (NMPA) of China Accept
.
HP558 is an inhibitor that specifically targets CD44v6 and has completed phase 1 clinical trials in Europe
CD44v6 is a splice variant of the CD44 family of transmembrane glycoproteins.
It is involved in many processes related to tumor progression, including epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell migration and invasion
.
HP558 can block the signal transduction of the three tyrosine kinases VEGFR-2, c-MET and RON by binding to CD44v6, thereby strongly inhibiting the growth and metastasis of squamous cell tumors
Preclinical and clinical trials have shown that HP558 has good anti-tumor activity, safety and tolerability, and has potential therapeutic effects in gastrointestinal tumors
.
At the same time, it can also be used in combination with chemotherapy or other targeted drugs, which is expected to treat a variety of advanced tumors
