Frequently asked questions about Lenvatinib

What is Lenvatinib used for in Hepatocellular Cancer?

Lenvatinib is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of Hepatocellular Cancer (HCC). It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development, with an active trial recruiting adult participants with HCC or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer. The drug is administered intravenously and is being evaluated for adverse events and change in disease activity.

What does Lenvatinib target?

Lenvatinib targets FLT1, FLT4, and KDR, which are receptor tyrosine kinases involved in angiogenesis. As an inhibitor of these targets, it is designed to block signaling pathways that promote tumor growth and blood vessel formation. This mechanism is being investigated in the context of hepatocellular cancer and other solid tumors.

Who makes Lenvatinib?

Lenvatinib is being developed by AbbVie Inc., a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker ABBV. The company is conducting a Phase 1 clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of the drug in adult participants with hepatocellular cancer or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer.

What phase is Lenvatinib in?

Lenvatinib is currently in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by regulatory authorities and is still undergoing clinical trials to evaluate its safety and effectiveness. The ongoing Phase 1 study is actively recruiting participants with hepatocellular cancer or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer.

What clinical trials is Lenvatinib in?

Lenvatinib is being evaluated in a single active clinical trial with the identifier NCT06858813. This Phase 1 study is recruiting 232 adult participants with hepatocellular cancer or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer across multiple countries, including the United States, China, Israel, Japan, Puerto Rico, Spain, and Taiwan. The trial is active-controlled and randomized.

Is Lenvatinib the same as ABBV-324?

Lenvatinib is also known as ABBV-324, as indicated in the clinical trial title. The study NCT06858813 evaluates intravenously infused ABBV-324 in adult participants with hepatocellular cancer or squamous-cell non-small cell lung cancer. Both names refer to the same investigational drug being developed by AbbVie Inc.
