Notable Labs Receives FDA Clearance to Proceed Further with Volasertib Phase 2 Study

 

Phase 2 dosing plan, agreed with FDA, paves the way to initiate patient enrollment

 

FOSTER CITY, Calif., July 24, 2024 – Notable Labs, Ltd. (Nasdaq: NTBL) (“Notable”, “Notable Labs” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage precision oncology company developing new cancer therapies identified by its Predictive Medicine Platform (PMP), today announced progress for the Phase 2 volasertib program following receipt of “Clearance to Proceed” from the FDA and agreement on the dosing plan for its Phase 2 clinical trial. With trial start-up activities launched in the first quarter of this year, Notable intends to initiate enrollment in the Phase 2 study for PMP-enabled development of volasertib for relapsed refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the coming months.

 

“We are pleased to report positive progress in our clinical development program to evaluate the use of volasertib, in combination with decitabine, for patients with R/R AML. Receiving FDA’s clearance and agreement on a Phase 2 dosing plan positions us to move forward to activate study sites,” said Thomas Bock, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Notable. “AML remains a devastating and life-threatening unmet need, especially for patients whose disease has progressed after first-line treatment, and especially in those who have received venetoclax-based therapies. Advancing the volasertib program through the next Phase 2 implementation steps represents meaningful progress for the Company. We are excited about the potential of volasertib, our predictive platform, and our carefully designed clinical program to enhance patient clinical outcomes and tolerability. We look forward to updating our investors and key stakeholders as we proceed.”

 

Glenn Michelson, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Notable commented, “Our study design and enrollment strategy for volasertib has been informed by our robust clinical validation trials conducted at Stanford University, the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and other recognized institutions. In addition, our program incorporates learnings from the agent’s originator, Boehringer Ingelheim, and leverages their extensive post-hoc analysis of the initial Phase 3 AML study. These valuable data guided our decision to in-license volasertib and the overall development strategy. We are enthusiastic to advance a promising new treatment option for patents with R/R AML, building on our platform.”

 

Amer Zeidan, MBBS, Associate Professor of Medicine (Hematology), Chief of Hematologic Malignancies at Yale Cancer Center and study co-chair shared, “As a clinical researcher with experience in acute myeloid leukemia, I am excited about the potential of volasertib, in combination with Notable’s platform and the enhanced trial design, to overcome some of the problems experienced in prior trials of this agent. This study will allow us to understand if volasertib could offer promise to advance care for patients with acute myeloid leukemia.”

 

The Phase 2 study will begin with a dose optimization lead-in and incorporate body-surface area (BSA) dosing, prophylactic antibiotic treatment and best supportive care. The second part of the study is planned to enroll patients with R/R AML who are PMP-predicted responders. The Company is working towards initiating dosing of the first subjects in the Phase 2 trial. Based on our plan, Notable expects to have initial data from the dose optimization lead-in during the fourth quarter of 2024, initiate selective enrollment of PMP-predicted responders after that, and start to report initial efficacy results during H1 2025.

About Volasertib

 

Volasertib is a PLK-1 inhibitor with demonstrated activity in AML and other tumor types, including solid tumors, with significant unmet medical need. Building on the performance of volasertib on PMP, an important and proprietary step during Notable’s targeted in-licensing strategy and decision making, Notable will utilize its PMP to predict volasertib-responsive patients prior to their treatment, with the goal of selectively enrolling and treating those predicted responders, increasing volasertib’s response rates and overall patient outcomes, and fast-tracking volasertib’s remaining clinical development in this patient population. Volasertib was originally developed and manufactured by Boehringer Ingelheim and previously granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA. Notable in-licensed volasertib and obtained exclusive worldwide development and commercialization rights, except for certain rare pediatric cancers.
