Early Phase I clinical studies have shown significant tumour reduction in breast, head and neck, lung, bile duct, and pancreatic cancers using soluble intravenous FID-007 injection.

The partnership will also focus on co-developing new tailored cancer treatments.

Moffitt will utilise its extensive scientific and immunology knowledge, tissue sample access and nonclinical research resources. Fulgent will provide its nano-particle-based drug development platform and comprehensive genetic and genomic testing capabilities.

Moffitt president and CEO Patrick Hwu stated: “This partnership aligns with Moffitt’s mission to contribute to the prevention and cure of cancer. We are looking forward to working with Fulgent to accelerate the translation of scientific discoveries into lifesaving treatments for our patients.”

In November 2022, Fulgent Pharma was acquired by Fulgent Genetics for $100m.
