About
Purple Biotech Ltd., a clinical-stage biotechnology firm based in Rehovot, Israel, is dedicated to pioneering treatments that help cancer patients, particularly in the United States, overcome tumor immune evasion and drug resistance. Its pipeline features two primary oncology assets: CM24: A monoclonal antibody designed to block carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1). This candidate is undergoing Phase 1b/2 clinical trials, where it is being evaluated as a combination therapy with anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors for non-small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer. NT219: A small molecule compound that targets insulin receptor substrate 1 and 2 (IRS1/2) as well as signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathways. NT219 is currently in Phase 1/2 clinical studies for the treatment of recurrent or metastatic solid tumors and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. The company was formerly known as Kitov Pharma Ltd until its rebranding to Purple Biotech Ltd. in December 2020.
