Frequently asked questions about Z650

What is Z650 used for?

Z650 is being studied for the treatment of advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, a type of esophageal cancer. It is an investigational small molecule developed by Sunshine Biopharma Inc. The clinical program has focused on patients whose tumors show EGFR over expression or gene amplification, meaning the therapy is aimed at a biomarker-selected population.

Who makes Z650?

Z650 is being developed by Sunshine Biopharma Inc., which trades under the ticker SBFM. The company is the sponsor of the clinical program for this small molecule in oncology.

What phase is Z650 in?

Z650 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and is not approved for commercial use. The Phase 1 study in advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma has been completed, and no trials for Z650 are currently listed as active.

What clinical trials is Z650 in?

Z650 has been evaluated in one clinical trial, NCT03888092, titled Z650 in Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma With EGFR Over Expression or Gene Amplification. The Phase 1 study enrolled 81 patients in China, was uncontrolled and non-randomized, and is now completed.

Is Z650 biomarker-selected?

Yes. The Z650 Phase 1 trial, NCT03888092, specifically enrolled patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma whose tumors had EGFR over expression or gene amplification. This biomarker-selected design means study participants were chosen based on the presence of these EGFR features.
