Frequently asked questions about NBTXR3

What is NBTXR3 used for?

NBTXR3 is an investigational oncology therapy being studied for adult soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity and trunk wall, where it is administered with radiation therapy. It is also being evaluated in combination with anti-PD-1 immunotherapy for advanced cancers, including metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and other solid tumors.

What does NBTXR3 target?

NBTXR3 is a crystalline nanoparticle designed to be activated by radiation therapy. When injected into the tumor and exposed to radiation, it is intended to increase the local radiation dose within cancer cells, potentially enhancing tumor cell destruction while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. Its mechanism does not involve a traditional molecular target.

Who makes NBTXR3?

NBTXR3 is being developed by Nanobiotix S.A., a biopharmaceutical company. The company's stock is listed under the ticker symbol NBTX.

What phase is NBTXR3 in?

NBTXR3 has completed a Phase 2 clinical trial in adult soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity and trunk wall. It has also been studied in Phase 1 trials, including one that is active but not recruiting, evaluating the drug in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy for advanced cancers. It remains an investigational agent in clinical development.

What clinical trials is NBTXR3 in?

NBTXR3 has been studied in several clinical trials. NCT01433068 was a completed Phase 1 trial in adult soft tissue sarcoma. NCT02379845 was a completed Phase 2 randomized trial in soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity and trunk wall. NCT03589339 is an active Phase 1 trial combining NBTXR3 with anti-PD-1 therapy for advanced cancers.

Is NBTXR3 the same as NBTXR3 crystalline nanoparticles?

Yes, NBTXR3 is also referred to as NBTXR3 crystalline nanoparticles in clinical trial titles. The drug is a hafnium oxide nanoparticle formulation designed to be activated by radiation therapy.
