Nuvalent, Inc., (Nasdaq: NUVL), a biopharmaceutical company focused on creating precisely targeted therapies for clinically proven kinase targets in cancer, today reported recent pipeline progress and third quarter 2021 financial results.
"Throughout the third quarter of 2021, we continued to progress our novel portfolio of precisely targeted therapies for patients with cancer. Notably, our first clinical trial of NVL-520, the 'ARROS-1' study, is now open for enrollment of patients with advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC and other solid tumors," said James Porter, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer at Nuvalent. "We anticipate a robust set of upcoming operational milestones, including the dosing of the first patient in our ARROS-1 study in 2021, the advancement of our parallel lead program NVL-655 into clinical development for ALK-positive cancers, and the expansion of our portfolio with additional internally developed product candidates. With a dedicated, expert team and a strong balance sheet in place, we believe we are well-positioned to achieve the milestones ahead."
