Tee Labs Incubatee: Full-Life Technologies Announces FDA Approval of IND Application for New Drug ²²⁵Ac-FL-020

Tee Labs Incubatee: Full-Life Technologies Announces Clearance from FDA of IND Application for ²²⁵Ac-FL-020 for the Treatment of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.Heidelberg, Germany – May 30, 2024 – Full-Life Technologies (Full-Life), a fully integrated global radiotherapeutics company, today announced it has received clearance of its Investigational New Drug (IND) Application from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clinical trials of ²²⁵Ac-FL-020, its PSMA-targeted radiopharmaceutical for the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The company plans to begin clinical studies in the U.S. and globally in 2024.
²²⁵Ac-FL-020 employs targeted alpha-radiotherapy designed to selectively attack cancer cells, reducing the damage to healthy tissues. In preclinical models, radiolabeled FL-020 displayed a very promising in vivo biodistribution profile, with high and sustained tumor uptake and fast systemic clearance. ²²⁵Ac-FL-020 exhibited robust anti-tumor activity in LNCaP xenograft mice, with a favorable safety profile. The upcoming Phase I clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor activity of ²²⁵Ac-FL-020, and will lay the groundwork for further clinical development, aiming to establish ²²⁵Ac-FL-020 as a valuable therapeutic option for patients with mCRPC.
“The IND application clearance is a significant regulatory milestone in our development plan for ²²⁵Ac-FL-020”, said Steffen Heeger, M.D., M.Sc., Chief Medical Officer of Full-Life. “This important step underscores our overall commitment to the therapeutic potential of radiopharmaceuticals and once again highlights the value of the team´s effort, dedication, and cross-functional collaboration. We are excited to initiate the Phase I clinical program, which provides the first opportunity to gather human data on ²²⁵Ac-FL-020’s safety and anti-tumor activity.”
About ²²⁵Ac-FL-020
²²⁵Ac-FL-020 is a novel, potential best-in-class, next-generation PSMA-targeting radionuclide drug conjugate (RDC) that will enter global Ph1 clinical studies in 2024. Its targeting vector, FL-020, was discovered using Full-Life’s proprietary UniRDC™ platform, which enables significant improvement of drug uptake in the tumor while maintaining fast systemic clearance. In pre-clinical models, ²²⁵Ac-FL-020 has demonstrated potent anti-tumor activity and a favorable safety profile.
