NRIX Nurix Therapeutics Inc

Nurix Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRIX), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing targeted protein modulation drugs designed to treat patients with cancer and inflammatory diseases, today announced that members of the Nurix team will make oral presentations on Nurix programs and participate in several industry panel discussions at the 7th Annual TPD & Induced Proximity Summit, being held October 28–31, 2024, in Boston, MA.

“The growing interest in the targeted protein degradation field underscores the immense therapeutic potential of this approach,” said Arthur T. Sands, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Nurix. “As an early leader in this space, Nurix has developed a broad pipeline and established numerous successful collaborations. We are excited to share preclinical data from our previously undisclosed pan-mutant B-Raf selective degrader with CNS exposure along with a review of clinical data from our NX-5948 selective BTK degrader with updated case reports.”

Presentations

Title: An Orally Bioavailable, Brain Penetrant Pan-Mutant B-RAF Degrader for the Treatment of Primary & Treatment-Resistant Solid TumorsPresenting author: Ya-Wen Lu, Ph.D.Session: Track B: Preclinical: Unearthing Brand New Bifunctional Modes of Action & Achieving Potent, Selective ADME PreclinicallyDate and time: Tuesday, October 29th, at 11:30 AM ETDescription:

• Nurix has developed a potent, selective, and orally bioavailable mutant-specific B-RAF degrader for use in oncology
• Potent anti-tumor activity observed in multiple CDX and PDX disease models representing Class I, Class II and Class III B-RAF mutations.
• Anti-tumor activity was also observed in the setting of CNS disease and treatment-resistance, suggesting the potential for utility across a broad range of solid tumor types

Title: Clinical Activity of NX-5948 in CLL & NHL: A First-in-Class BTK DegraderPresenting author: Paula G. O’Connor, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, NurixMorning Keynote Plenary Session: Advancing Bifunctionals Towards the First Approval with Clinical Data from Leaders in the Clinic Date and time: Wednesday, October 30th, at 9:00 AM ET. Description:

• NX-5948 is an investigational, orally bioavailable degrader of BTK that is currently being evaluated in relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies and recently advanced into Phase 1b expansion cohorts.
• Emerging data continues to support the utility of BTK degradation in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL including those with CNS involvement and with tumors harboring BTK inhibitor resistance mutations
• Recent data demonstrates clinical activity in Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia (WM)
• Updated case reports will be presented

The slides for these presentations may be accessed following their presentation at the 7th Annual TPD & Induced Proximity Summit, via links in the Scientific Resources section of the Nurix website.

About NX-5948

NX-5948 is an investigational, orally bioavailable degrader of BTK that is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1a/b clinical trial in adults with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies. Additional information on the Phase 1a/b clinical trial can be accessed at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05131022).

About Nurix Therapeutics, Inc.

Nurix Therapeutics is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative small molecules and antibody therapies based on the modulation of cellular protein levels as a novel treatment approach for cancer, inflammatory conditions, and other challenging diseases. Leveraging extensive expertise in E3 ligases together with proprietary DNA-encoded libraries, Nurix has built DELigase, an integrated discovery platform, to identify and advance novel drug candidates targeting E3 ligases, a broad class of enzymes that can modulate proteins within the cell. Nurix’s drug discovery approach is to either harness or inhibit the natural function of E3 ligases within the ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively decrease or increase cellular protein levels. Nurix’s wholly owned, clinical stage pipeline includes targeted protein degraders of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase, a B-cell signaling protein, and inhibitors of Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B, an E3 ligase that regulates activation of multiple immune cell types including T cell and NK cells. Nurix is headquartered in San Francisco, California. For additional information visit http://www.nurixtx.com.
