NextPoint Therapeutics Announces First Patient Dosed in Phase 1a/b Clinical Trial of NPX267, a Novel Therapeutic Targeting KIR3DL3 to Reactivate Exhausted T and NK Cells in HHLA2+ Solid Tumors

First-in-class monoclonal antibody targeting KIR3DL3, the inhibitory receptor for HHLA2, designed to reverse immune suppression in the tumor microenvironment

The study will assess safety, tolerability and inform dosing strategy

Cambridge, MA – August 17, 2023 – NextPoint Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing precision immuno-oncology therapeutics targeting the novel HHLA2 pathway, announced today that the first patient has been dosed with NPX267 in a Phase 1 first-in-human clinical trial for the treatment of patients with solid tumors known to express HHLA2, a tumor antigen strongly upregulated in many human tumors independently of PD-L1.

The Phase 1a/1b open-label, multi-center study (NCT05958199) consists of a dose escalation and an expansion stage to evaluate the tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity and biomarker strategy of NPX267 in patients with metastatic solid tumors including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other indications.

Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor 3DL3 (KIR3DL3) is expressed on effector T cells and natural killer (NK) cells in the tumor microenvironment and is an inhibitory receptor for the tumor antigen HHLA2, expressed on a range of solid tumors. Binding of KIR3DL3 to HHLA2 is believed to allow tumors to cloak themselves and hide from immune cells.

“Many cancers hijack the HHLA2 pathway to evade the immune system, whose signaling mechanisms were independently co-discovered by NextPoint’s scientific co-founders, Dr. XingXing Zang and Dr. Gordon Freeman,” said Detlev Biniszkiewicz, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of NextPoint Therapeutics. “Because HHLA2 is expressed independently of PD-L1 and is often highly expressed in PD-L1-negative cancers, targeting the HHLA2-KIR3DL3 interaction is a promising new approach for patients with cancer.”

“We are excited to launch the clinical evaluation of NPX267, our lead therapeutic program targeting the HHLA2 pathway,” said Leena Gandhi, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of NextPoint Therapeutics. “This study will provide important data on the therapeutic activity of NPX267 as well as the mechanism of HHLA2-mediated immunosuppression via KIR3DL3 and inform our clinical strategy for developing precision immunotherapeutic treatments for patients.”

About NPX267

NPX267 is a first-in-class monoclonal antibody targeting KIR3DL3, the inhibitory receptor for the HHLA2 pathway (B7-H7), and is designed to prevent immune escape in solid tumors. By blocking the binding of KIR3DL3 on exhausted T and NK cells to HHLA2 expressed on tumor cells, NPX267 may be able to reactivate tumor antigen-primed immune cells in HHLA2-expressing solid tumors. Preventing KIR3DL3-mediated immune suppression may enhance anti-tumor immune responses for patients with HHLA2-positive cancers – a tumor antigen expressed independently of PD-L1.

NextPoint Therapeutics Announces $80 Million Series B Financing co-led by Leaps by Bayer and Sanofi Ventures to Advance Novel Immuno-Oncology Programs

Programs target the novel HHLA2 pathway, activating anti-tumor immune responses to find and destroy cancer cells

Cambridge, MA / Leverkusen, Germany – January 10, 2023 – NextPoint Therapeutics, a biotechnology company developing a new world of precision immuno-oncology, announced today that it raised $80 million in Series B financing co-led by Leaps by Bayer, the impact investment arm of Bayer AG, and Sanofi Ventures, the strategic venture capital arm for Sanofi. The financing will be used to advance NextPoint’s two lead precision immuno-oncology programs into the clinic, both targeting the newly discovered HHLA2 pathway to activate anti-tumor immune responses.

Additional new investors in the round include Invus, Catalio Capital Management, Sixty Degree Capital and PagodaTree Partners. Existing investors that took part in the financing include MPM Capital Management, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s Binney Street Capital and NextPoint founder Gordon Freeman, PhD. As part of the financing, Rakhshita Dhar, Senior Director of Venture Investments Health at Leaps by Bayer, and Paulina Hill, Partner at Sanofi Ventures, will join the NextPoint Board of Directors.

NextPoint’s programs aim to deliver monotherapies for cancer patients without viable treatment options. While immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting PD-1/L1 have revolutionized cancer treatments, many patients do not benefit from these medications and require novel therapeutic strategies. Similar to PD-L1, the tumor antigen HHLA2 is a member of the B7 receptor family¹, is highly expressed on certain hard-to-treat cancers², and drives avoidance of detection from the immune system. Importantly, HHLA2 is independent of PD-L1 and is often most strongly expressed in PD-L1-negative cancers. NextPoint’s approach re-activates immune cells in tumors that are suppressed by HHLA2-driven immune evasion.

NextPoint originated from the combined expertise of its academic founders, Gordon Freeman, PhD, of the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and XingXing Zang, PhD, of Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Drs. Freeman’s and Zang’s independent discovery and characterization of the HHLA2 pathway formed the basis of the NextPoint approach. The company and its founders have shown in preclinical models and with analysis of existing clinical datasets that the HHLA2 pathway is an important tumor-suppressive mechanism in many patients^3,4.

“NextPoint is building a deep understanding of the HHLA2 tumor-specific immune-escape mechanism, with the ultimate goal of establishing standalone treatments in cancers with high HHLA2 expression,” said Detlev Biniszkiewicz, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of NextPoint Therapeutics. “The support of our new investors along with the continued commitment of our existing investors and founders emphasizes our momentum and progress in defining precision immuno-oncology for new patient segments.”

Juergen Eckhardt, MD, Head of Leaps by Bayer, commented, “Leaps by Bayer was founded to help solve ten of the world’s biggest challenges in health and agriculture, including preventing and curing cancer. We are thrilled to support NextPoint, an exciting addition to our oncology portfolio, as it works to redefine the treatment landscape of immuno-oncology.”

NextPoint Therapeutics, Inc. Privacy Notice

LAST UPDATED: May 18, 2022

This Privacy Notice is intended to describe how NextPoint Therapeutics, Inc., (“NextPoint”) collects, uses, and shares Personal Data that you submit to us and that we collect through our website https://www.nextpointtx.com (the “Site”). The Site provides a venue to obtain information about NextPoint, our activities, and products we may offer.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT

For purposes of this Privacy Notice, “Personal Data” means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. As described in detail below, we may collect certain Personal Data from or about you in connection with your use of, or your submissions to, the Site.

We may collect Personal Data as follows:

When we leverage and/or collect cookies, device IDs, location, data from the environment, and other tracking technologies. We may collect certain Personal Data using cookies and other technologies, such as web beacons, device IDs, geolocation, HTML5 local storage, Flash cookies, and IP addresses. We specifically use browser cookies for different purposes, including cookies that are strictly necessary for functionality and cookies that are used for personalization and performance/analytics. When you visit the Site, we may also automatically collect certain data about your device, including information about your device’s operating system, your web browser, IP address, and time zone. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. Our “Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies” section contains more information and options to control or opt-out of certain data collection or uses.

You are not required to provide all Personal Data identified in this Privacy Notice in order to use the Site; however, if you do not provide the Personal Data requested, we may be unable to provide some or all of the Site to you.

USE OF COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES

The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to improve user experience, for performance and analytics, and to improve our content, products, and services. We also use cookies and similar technologies for purposes of marketing and advertising.

A “cookie” is a small text file that a web server stores in browser software. A browser sends cookies to a server when the browser makes a connection to the server (for example, when requesting a web page from the same domain that created the cookie). The purpose of cookies is to remember the browser over time and distinguish one browser instance (or user) from all others. Some cookies and other technologies may serve to track Personal Data previously entered by a web user on our site. Most browsers allow you to control cookies, including whether or not to accept them, and how to remove them. Cookies can remember login information, preferences, and similar information.

Cookies, as well as other tracking technologies, such as HTML5 local storage, and Local Shared Objects (such as “Flash” cookies), and similar mechanisms, may record information such as a unique identifier, information you enter in a form, IP address, and other categories of data.

We may also use web beacons or “pixels,” and in certain circumstances may collect IP address, screen resolution and browser software and operating system types, clickstream patterns, dates and times that our site is accessed, and other categories of data.

If you want to block the use and saving of cookies from the Site on to the computers’ hard drive, you should take the necessary steps within your web browser’s settings to block all cookies from the Site and its external serving vendors, or use the cookie control system, if available upon first visit. Please note that if you choose to erase or block your cookies, certain parts of our Site may not function correctly. For information on how to disable cookies, refer to your browser’s documentation or documentation specific to certain types of cookies (for example Flash cookies and HTML5 cookies).

Our Site may use the following technologies to implement cookies and pixels:

Google Analytics. In order to ensure that the content from the Site remains up to date, user-oriented and comprehensive, this Site employs Google Analytics, a web-analysis tool from Google Inc. (“Google”) that enables us to optimize our Site for you. Google Analytics uses cookies that track your preferences during your visit to our Site. This allows us to simplify navigation, for example, thereby helping us to make the site more user-friendly. The information that is generated in this process (including the IP address) is anonymized, making personal identification impossible. An evaluation for reporting purposes is carried out only after the anonymization process. The data, generated by this Cookie are usually transferred and stored on a server in the USA. As a user of our Site, you always have the option of disabling cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers allow cookies as a default setting. Should you change this setting, this may disrupt certain functions of our Site. Furthermore, you can prevent Google’s acquisition and processing of the information that is generated by the cookie and concerns your activity on the Site (including your IP address) by downloading and installing a browser plug-in. In this process, your IP-Address is in a first step reduced to Countries in the European Union or other Countries in the European Economic Community. The actual link to the tool is: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=us. Further information on the terms of use and the privacy options of Google are available on:
http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html
Google AdWords. As an AdWords customer, the Site also uses Google conversion tracking by Google on some pages. This means that Google AdWords places a cookie on your computer (“conversion cookie”) if you have accessed our webpage via a Google ad. These cookies become invalid after 30 days. If you visit certain pages on our Site and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that someone has clicked on an ad and been directed to our page as a result thereof. Each AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected with the help of the conversion cookie allows us to prepare conversion statistics to optimize our services. AdWords customers know, for instance, the total number of customers who have clicked on their ad and been redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. But they do not receive any information by which users can be personally identified. If you do not want to participate in the tracking, you can prevent the placement of the necessary cookie – for instance through a browser setting that deactivates the automatic placement of cookies in general. “You can also deactivate conversion tracking cookies by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain googleadservices.com”.
Google Remarketing. Moreover, the Site uses Google’s Remarketing technology on some pages. With this technology, users who have already visited our web pages and online services and shown in interest in what we have to offer are shown targeted advertising on other websites of the Google Partner network. The ads are displayed through the use of cookies, by means of which the user’s behavior during his or her visit to the website is analyzed and then used for targeted product recommendations and interest-based advertising.

If you do not wish to receive any interest-based advertising, you can deactivate Google’s use of cookies for these purposes by going to https://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, users can deactivate cookies from third-party providers by going to the network advertising initiative’s deactivation page (link: https://optout.networkadvertising.org/?c=1).

Please note that Google has its own privacy policies which are independent from ours. We do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies and procedures. Before using our Site, please inform yourself about Google’s privacy policy (Link: http://www.google.com/privacy.html).

In some cases where we are not already authorized to process the Personal Data under applicable law, we may ask for your consent to process your Personal Data:

Special Categories of Personal Data. We generally do not collect or require special categories of Personal Data (such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, health information, biometric data, or sexual orientation) in order to access our Site. In the event you voluntarily provide this information to us or we need to collect such information to provide a specific service to you, we will obtain your consent if required by law. If you choose not to provide consent, you may not be able to access all of the features and content of our Site. In certain circumstances, subject to applicable law, we may process or otherwise disclose special categories of Personal Data without consent, such as to protect the vital interests of you or of another person.
Cookies. We may also request consent for some cookies in accordance with our cookie policy.

HOW WE MAY DISCLOSE INFORMATION

We may disclose Personal Data as described in this Privacy Notice, including:

For the Purpose Disclosed. We may disclose your Personal Data to fulfill the purpose for which you provided it to us.
Affiliates. We may disclose some or all of your Personal Data to our subsidiaries, joint ventures, and other companies under our common control (collectively, “Affiliates”), for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice. Where we share Personal Data with our Affiliates, we will require our Affiliates to honor this Privacy Notice.
Service Providers. We may disclose Personal Data to business partners, distributors, service providers, marketing partners, and vendors in order to maintain, provide and improve the Site. We may also share Personal Data for other technical and processing functions, such as sending e-mails on our behalf, technical support, or otherwise operating the Site, for analytics, and for marketing purposes. Such third parties may have access to Personal Data only as needed to perform their functions for us, and they may not use Personal Data for other purposes.
Pursuant to Legal Process and Protection of Rights. We may also disclose Personal Data to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant, or other lawful request for information we receive, or as otherwise pursuant to legal process. We may also use and disclose Personal Data to establish or exercise our legal rights, to enforce our Terms of Use, this Privacy Notice, or agreements with third parties, to assert and defend against legal claims, or if we believe such disclosure is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding actual or suspected illegal or fraudulent activities or potential threats to the physical safety or well-being of any person.
Corporate Transactions. Subject to applicable law, we reserve the right to sell or transfer Personal Data in the event that we are acquired by or merged with another company or in connection with the potential sale or transfer of some or all of the business assets of the Site or NextPoint, including for the purpose of permitting the due diligence required to decide whether to proceed with a transaction. If the sale occurs, the purchaser will be entitled to use and disclose the Personal Data collected by us, and the purchaser will assume the rights and obligations regarding Personal Data as described in this Privacy Notice.
Consent. We may also disclose Personal Data with your consent.

DE-IDENTIFIED OR ANONYMOUS DATA

We may create de-identified or anonymous data from Personal Data by removing data components (such as your name, email address, or linkable tracking ID) that make the data personally identifiable to you or through obfuscation or through other means. Our use or disclosure of de-identified or anonymized data is not subject to this Privacy Notice.

DO-NOT-TRACK

Do-Not-Track is a public-private initiative that has developed a “flag” or signal that an Internet user may activate in the user’s browser software to notify websites that the user does not wish to be “tracked” by third-parties as defined by the initiative. The online community has not agreed on what actions, if any, should be taken by the websites that receive the “do not track” signal, and therefore Do-Not-Track is not yet standardized. Please note that the Site does not alter its behavior or use practices when we receive a Do Not Track signal from your browser.

INFORMATION FROM CHILDREN UNDER 13 YEARS OF AGE

We do not knowingly collect information from minors under the age of 13 years without parental consent. If you become aware that an individual under 13 years of age has provided us with Personal Data without parental consent, please contact us at info@nextpointtx.com. If we become aware that an individual under 13 years has provided us with Personal Data without parental consent, we will take steps to remove the data as permitted by law.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

Our Site may contain links or otherwise provide access to another website, mobile application, or Internet location (collectively “Third-Party Sites”). We provide these links merely for your convenience. We have no control over, do not review, and are not responsible for Third-Party Sites, their content, or any goods or services available through the Third-Party Sites. Our Privacy Notice does not apply to Third-Party Sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any Third-Party Site with which you choose to interact.
