Whitehawk Therapeutics, Inc. WHWK
We are a clinical-stage oncology therapeutics company applying advanced technologies to established tumor biology that are intended to efficiently deliver improved cancer treatments. We have deep experience in chemistry, formulation, and drug delivery, as well as research, clinical, and commercial pharmaceutical development, resulting in successfully taking product candidates from the clinic to approval, launch, and commercialization.
In December 2024, we entered into an intellectual property license agreement (the "WuXi License Agreement") with WuXi Biologics (Shanghai FX) Co., Ltd. ("WuXi Biologics") for the development and global commercialization of a portfolio of three next generation antibody drug conjugates ("ADCs") targeting clinically validated, broadly overexpressed tumor antigens in high potential cancer indications with significant unmet need. These ADCs are constructed utilizing an advanced linker-payload platform called CPT113 that has been shown to provide increased stability in blood circulation and deliver targeted release of a Topoisomerase I ("TOP1") inhibitor payload into cancer cells.
