Aktis Oncology, Inc. AKTS

We are a clinical-stage oncology company focused on expanding the breakthrough potential of targeted radiopharmaceuticals to large patient populations, including those not addressed by existing platform technologies. The field of targeted radiopharmaceuticals is currently led by two marketed products that illustrated transformative survival outcomes and quality of life benefits can be conferred by delivering radioisotopes to solid tumors. These leading products, which target prostate specific membrane antigen or somatostatin-2 receptor, are each currently approved in only one tumor type, yet have seen considerable commercial uptake and have become fundamental pillars of cancer treatment. Despite these advances, we believe that the field of radiopharmaceuticals is still in its infancy, with many emerging companies still primarily focused on these same two targets. In contrast, we see a significant opportunity to broaden the cancer patient populations benefiting from targeted radiopharmaceuticals by developing next-generation technologies that expand the scope of tumor targets for which it is possible to safely deliver a powerful payload of an alpha-emitting radioisotope. To ensure patient demand is reliably met, we are also establishing efficient end-to-end supply, with a combination of critical internal capabilities paired with established external vendors. Through these efforts, we seek to maximize clinical utility across multiple indications in multiple tumor types, and to expand the commercial uptake of radiopharmaceuticals beyond the traditional nuclear medicine setting and into the more expansive clinical oncology setting.
