Preclinical candidate LAE120, a novel selective USP1 inhibitor shows effective anticancer and combination activity with PARP inhibitor (AACR 2024) - "The combination of LAE120 and Olaparib (PARP inhibitor) yielded a more robust and durable anti-tumor efficacy at low dose (TGI: 110%, LAE120, 5 mg/kg BID + Olaparib, 50 mg/kg QD). Preclinical-tox studies indicated the molecule was well tolerated without significant toxicities and hematological observations. Both in vitro and in vivo data strongly support further investigation of LAE120, whether as a single agent or in combination therapy."
