Peluntamig (PT217) was granted two orphan drug designations (ODD) for the treatment of SCLC and NEC, respectively, by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It was also granted two Fast Track designations for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) with disease progression following platinum chemotherapy with or without a checkpoint inhibitor, and metastatic de novo or treatment-emergent neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC), respectively, by the agency. Last year, Phanes entered into a clinical supply agreement with Roche to study peluntamig (PT217) in combination with Roche's anti-PD-L1 therapy, atezolizumab. The multi-center Phase I/II clinical trial of peluntamig (PT217) (NCT05652686), known as the SKYBRIDGE study, is currently evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of peluntamig (PT217) in patients with advanced or refractory cancers expressing DLL3. A Phase I clinical trial of peluntamig (PT217) is also ongoing in China (CTR20242720).
