PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBIO), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company that focuses on genetic diseases and cancers, today announced preclinical findings for its SHP2 inhibitor, BBP-398, in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The results are featured in a poster presentation titled ‘BBP-398, a potent, small molecule inhibitor of SHP2, enhances the response of established NSCLC xenografts to KRASG12C and EGFRmut inhibitors’ at the AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics taking place virtually on October 7 – 10, 2021.
“We are excited to share our promising preclinical data in non-small cell lung cancer models, which provides a critical step in understanding the potential that BBP-398 has for patients with tumors driven by RAS or other MAPK-pathway activating mutations,” said Eli Wallace, Ph.D., chief scientific officer at BridgeBio Oncology. “For patients with this type of progressive cancer, there is a serious need for more innovative medicines to be accessible as quickly as possible. Our potentially best-in-class SHP2 inhibitor could be an ideal combination agent for certain cancer patients given its promising profile of preclinical results and potential for once daily dosing.”
