ReHeva Biosciences has concluded the Phase I clinical trial of its investigational drug, RH324, for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The trial analysed the tolerability and safety of increasing doses of RH324 in advanced NSCLC patients who have failed treatments previously.
ReHeva carried out the trial in partnership with Case Comprehensive Cancer Center University Hospitals and Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, US.
ReHeva Biosciences CEO, co-founder, and chief scientific officer Dr Zeenia Kaul said: “At ReHeva, we are driven by a steadfast belief that cancer treatment can be transformed to help patients live longer and healthier with cancer.
“The completion of our Phase I clinical trial represents a tremendous milestone toward realising this vision.
“By maximising the potential of plant-derived agents to target multiple tissues and mechanisms of action, we are advancing the narrative of cancer treatment.”
