BBO-8520 / BridgeBio, BridgeBio Oncology Therap - LARVOL DELTA

BBO-8520, a first-in-class direct dual inhibitor of GTP-bound (ON) and GDP-bound (OFF) KRASG12C, exhibits robust efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer preclinical models (AACR 2025) - P1 | "Sotorasib and adagrasib, allele-specific KRASG12C covalent inhibitors that only target KRASG12C in the inactive GDP-bound (OFF) state, have been approved for patients with KRASG12C locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)...BBO-8520 also exhibits strong combination benefit in vivo in the KRASG12 CDX model NCI-H2122 when combined with either BBO-10203, a selective RAS:PI3Kα breaker that blocks RAS-mediated activation of AKT in clinical development (NCT06625775), or the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab. In summary, BBO-8520 is a first in class, potent and selective KRASG12C dual GTP-bound (ON) and GDP-bound (OFF) inhibitor that exhibits robust efficacy and may improve upon approved, KRASG12C GDP-bound (OFF)-only inhibitors in NSCLC. BBO-8520 has entered phase 1 clinical trials in patients with KRASG12C NSCLC that are either naïve or have experienced first-generation KRASG12C (OFF) inhibitors (NCT06343402)."

BBO-8520 Preclinical Data Published in Cancer Discovery Supports the Potential for the First-in-Class Molecule to Provide Therapeutic Benefit in KRASG12C Mutant Tumors (Businesswire) - "Data demonstrates BBO-8520 binds directly to both the 'ON' and 'OFF' states of KRASG12C, leading to rapid and complete inhibition of KRASG12C activity. In murine models, BBO-8520 treatment results in greater potency, deeper responses, and slowed development of resistance compared to approved, 'OFF' only KRASG12C inhibitors."
