Pipeline and clinical development
Zidesamtinib (NVL-520) and neladalkib (NVL-655) are lead assets, both advancing through pivotal trials for ROS1+ and ALK+ NSCLC, respectively.
NDA for zidesamtinib in TKI pre-treated ROS1+ NSCLC accepted, with PDUFA date September 18, 2026; NDA for neladalkib in TKI pre-treated ALK+ NSCLC accepted, PDUFA date November 27, 2026.
Phase 3 ALKAZAR trial for TKI-naïve ALK+ NSCLC and Phase 1a/1b HEROEX-1 trial for HER2-altered NSCLC ongoing.
Clinical data and efficacy
Zidesamtinib demonstrated 44% ORR in TKI pre-treated ROS1+ NSCLC, with emerging median DOR of 22 months and strong intracranial activity.
Neladalkib showed 31% ORR in heavily pre-treated ALK+ NSCLC, 68% ORR in ALK G1202R mutation, and 46% ORR in lorlatinib-naïve patients.
Both drugs exhibited favorable safety profiles, with low discontinuation and dose reduction rates due to adverse events.
