2026年3月5日,复星医药子公司复宏汉霖(2696.HK)宣布,公司自研的口服创新赖氨酸乙酰转移酶6A/B(KAT6A/B)小分子抑制剂HLX97的新药临床试验(IND)申请已获得国家药品监督管理局(NMPA)批准,拟用于晚期或转移性实体瘤的治疗,有望为乳腺癌等实体瘤耐药患者带来新的治疗方案。潜在同类最优:精准抑制KAT6A/B,挑战后线治疗KAT6A(Lysine Acetyltransferase 6A)及其旁系同源物KAT6B(Lysine Acetyltransferase 6B)是MYST 家族的组蛋白赖氨酸乙酰转移酶(HAT),在多种肿瘤的发生发展和耐药性产生中发挥着关键作用。临床前及临床研究显示,在既往接受过多种治疗的ER+/HER2-转移性乳腺癌患者中,KAT6A基因的扩增/过表达与内分泌治疗耐药性的产生密切相关。此外,也观察到 KAT6A/B基因的异常表达出现在卵巢癌、子宫颈癌、结直肠癌、前列腺癌、肺癌和脑胶质瘤中等多种实体瘤中1-3,提示KAT6A/B抑制剂在多类肿瘤的治疗中具有潜在的应用前景。HLX97 是一款具有同类最优潜力的创新型口服KAT6A/B抑制剂。通过精准抑制KAT6A/B的活性,HLX97能够调控肿瘤细胞的增殖,诱导肿瘤细胞凋亡,具有“快速起效、快速清除”药代动力学特性和高选择性,旨在最大化药物抗肿瘤活性的同时减轻产品的血液毒性。非临床研究显示,HLX97具有良好的抗肿瘤效果和安全性。与同类产品PF-07248144相比,HLX97展现出更强的KAT6A/B抑制活性和对KAT5/7/8更高的选择性,其中,HLX97在更低剂量下即展现出与同类产品相当或更优的抗肿瘤活性;在相近抑瘤水平时,HLX97引发的血液学毒性显著更低,预示其在临床上可能拥有更宽的治疗窗口。同时,HLX97显示出良好的ADME特性,包括高口服生物利用度和优异的药代动力学特征4-5。全域全程全球:构建乳腺癌全生命周期治疗生态乳腺癌是全球第二以及女性最高发的恶性肿瘤,成为导致女性癌症死亡的主要原因。其中,ER+乳腺癌是最常见的乳腺癌亚型,约占所有乳腺癌病例的70% 6。尽管抑制雌激素生成、直接靶向ER的干预措施等内分泌治疗已成为其基石疗法,显著降低了ER+乳腺癌的复发率和死亡率,但新生耐药和获得性耐药仍然是一项重大挑战。鉴于乳腺癌中KAT6A基因的扩增/过表达已被证实与内分泌治疗耐药性的产生密切相关。因此,靶向抑制KAT6A/B活性有望成为一种克服耐药的有效策略7-9。HLX97成功获批临床,标志着复宏汉霖已经构建了完整贯通的小分子药物研发能力。从成熟靶点的差异化开发到新兴靶点的战略布局,公司正加速实现大分子与小分子药物的深度融合与优势互补。通过自主研发与战略引进,复宏汉霖已在乳腺癌领域建立了“全域全程全球”的完整治疗生态,产品管线包括中美欧等全球50多个国家和地区获批上市曲妥珠单抗生物类似药汉曲优(美国商品名:HERCESSI,欧洲商品名:Zercepac),首个美国获批的帕妥珠单抗生物类似药POHERDY,早期强化辅助治疗药物汉奈佳(奈拉替尼),创新CDK4/6抑制剂复妥宁(伏维西利)等上市产品,以及新表位抗HER2单抗HLX22、新型内分泌疗法拉索昔芬片HLX78、LIV-1靶点ADC HLX41、HER2xHER2双表位ADC HLX49、HER2 ADC HLX87等高潜创新分子,持续推进覆盖乳腺癌各分型分期的单药及联合疗法临床研究,通过强化管线协同效应,持续提升覆盖提升治疗价值。未来,复宏汉霖将继续坚持“以患者为中心”的研发理念,依托平台化、系统化的创新体系,加速推进具有全球竞争力的差异化创新管线布局,为全球患者提供更可及、更有效的治疗选择。关于复宏汉霖复宏汉霖(2696.HK)是一家国际化创新生物制药企业,致力于为全球患者提供高品质、可负担的生物药,产品覆盖肿瘤、自身免疫疾病、眼科疾病等领域。自2010年成立以来,公司已构建涵盖全球研发、临床、注册、生产及商业化的全产业链平台,拥有全球员工近4,000人,并在中国、美国和日本等多地设有运营及分支机构。依托生物类似药形成的稳健现金流反哺创新研发,复宏汉霖正稳步迈入“全球化2.0”阶段,持续打造可复制、可持续的全球增长模式。截至2026年初,公司共有10款产品在全球60个国家和地区获批上市,其中7款已在中国获批。在欧美主流生物药市场,复宏汉霖亦取得多项里程碑式突破,已有4款产品获得美国FDA批准、4款产品获得欧盟EMA上市授权,充分体现了公司在研发体系、质量管理及生产能力方面已全面对标国际最高标准。在创新驱动方面,复宏汉霖依托上海、美国等多地协同布局的研发体系,构建了多元化、平台化的创新技术矩阵,覆盖免疫检查点抑制剂、免疫细胞衔接器(包括多特异性TCE)、抗体偶联药物(ADC)以及AI驱动的早期研发平台等前沿方向。目前,公司拥有50余项处于早期阶段的创新资产,其中约70%具备同类最佳(Best-in-Class)潜力,并在全球同步推进30余项临床研究。核心产品H药 汉斯状(斯鲁利单抗,欧洲商品名:Hetronifly)作为全球首个获批一线治疗小细胞肺癌的抗PD-1单抗,正加速全球布局,已在全球40余个市场获批上市;同时,多款潜力创新资产,包括PD-L1 ADC HLX43及新表位HER2单抗HLX22正全面推进全球关键性临床研究。依托通过中、欧、美三地GMP认证的生产体系,复宏汉霖已建成总产能达84,000升的生物药生产平台,形成覆盖全球六大洲的稳定供应网络。未来,复宏汉霖将始终坚持以患者为中心,聚焦未满足的临床需求,持续推动创新成果向临床价值与患者可及转化,在全球生物医药创新生态中创造长期而稳健的价值。Henlius Receives IND Approval for Its Potential BIC Novel Oral KAT6A/B Small Molecule Inhibitor HLX97 Shanghai, China – March 5, 2026 – Shanghai Henlius Biotech, Inc. (2696.HK) today announced that the NMPA has approved the IND application for HLX97, a novel oral small molecule inhibitor targeting Lysine Acetyltransferase 6A/B (KAT6A/B) independently developed by the company, for the treatment of advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It is expected to provide a new therapeutic option for patients with breast cancer and other solid tumors who have progressed on standard therapies.A Potential Best-in-Class KAT6A/B Inhibitor for Later-line Treatment of Solid TumorsKAT6A (Lysine Acetyltransferase 6A) and its paralog KAT6B (Lysine Acetyltransferase 6B) are histone lysine acetyltransferases (HATs) belonging to the MYST family. Together with other chromatin-associated proteins, they acetylates lysine residues on histone H3 and plays a key role in the development and drug resistance of various tumors. Preclinical and clinical studies demonstrate that, amplification or overexpression of KAT6A is closely associated with endocrine therapy in heavily pretreated patients with estrogen receptor-positive(ER+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer. In addition, dysregulation of KAT6A/B has been observed in various solid tumors, including ovarian, cervical, colorectal, prostate, lung cancers, and glioma1-3, underscoring the broad therapeutic potential of KAT6A/B inhibitors in oncology.HLX97 is a novel, oral KAT6A/B inhibitor with best-in-class potential. By precisely inhibiting KAT6A/B activity, HLX97 inhibits tumor cell proliferationand induces apoptosis. It is characterized by a "fast-on/fast-off" pharmacokinetic profile and high selectivity, designed to maximize anti-tumor efficacy while minimizing hematologic toxicity. Nonclinical studies have demonstrated that HLX97 exhibits potent anti-tumor activity and a favorable safety profile. In comparisons with PF-, HLX97 exhibited superior enzymatic inhibition and enhanced selectivity against KAT5/7/8. Notably, in preclinical studies, HLX97 demonstrated anti-tumor activity comparable or superior to the reference molecule at lower doses. Furthermore, at similar efficacy levels, HLX97 induced significantly less hematological toxicity, suggesting a potentially broader therapeutic window in the clinical setting. Additionally, HLX97 shows favorable ADME characteristics, such as high oral bioavailability and excellent pharmacokinetics 4-5.Breast cancer is the second most common cancer globally and ranks as both the most frequently diagnosed malignancy and the leading cause of cancer death among women. Among its subtypes, estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer is the most prevalent, accounting for approximately 70% of all breast cancer cases 6. Treatment strategies for ER+ breast cancer include inhibition of estrogen production and interventions directly targeting the ER, collectively referred to as endocrine therapy. Although endocrine therapy has significantly reduced recurrence and mortality rates in breast cancer, de novo and acquired resistance remain major clinical challenges. Given the established role of KAT6A amplification/overexpression in driving endocrine therapy resistance in breast cancer, inhibition of KAT6A/B activity represents a promising strategy to fulfill this umet medical needs7-9.Building a Full Continuum Care Ecosystem for Breast CancerThe IND approval of HLX97 marks a key milestone in the establishment of Henlius’ fully integrated small-molecule drug R&D capabilities. Building on this, the company is executing a differentiated strategy across its pipeline—pursuing both innovation on established targets and moves into emerging ones—to fully harness the potential of its integrated small-molecule and biologics platforms. Henlius has built a comprehensive pipeline covering the full continuum of breast cancer care through internal innovation and strategic collaborations. Its marketed products include HANQUYOU (trade name: HERCESSI in the U.S., Zercepac in Europe), a trastuzumab biosimilar approved in over 50 countries and regions including China, the U.S., and Europe; POHERDY, the first pertuzumab biosimilar approved in the U.S.; HANNAIJIA (neratinib), an extended adjuvant therapy for early-stage breast cancer, and CDK4/6 inhibitor FUTUONING (fovinaciclib). Meanwhile, Henlius is advancing next-generation molecules such as novel epitope anti-HER2 antibody HLX22, oral selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) lasofoxifene (HLX78), KAT6A/B inhibitor HLX97, LIV-1-targeting ADC HLX41, HER2×HER2 bispecific epitope ADC HLX49 and HER2 ADC HLX87 through its robust innovation platforms and collaborative R&D. Building on this foundation, Henlius remains committed to advancing monotherapies and combination regimens across all breast cancer subtypes, enhancing therapeutic value through strengthened pipeline synergies.Looking ahead, Henlius will continue to adhere to its "patient-centric" R&D philosophy.
