Nuvectis Pharma, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
and Business Highlights
August 6, 2024, Fort Lee, NJ - Nuvectis Pharma,
Inc. (NASDAQ: NVCT) ("Nuvectis" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development
of innovative precision medicines for the treatment of serious conditions of unmet medical need in oncology, today reported its financial
results for the second quarter 2024 and provided an update on recent business progress.
Ron Bentsur, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvectis, commented,
"During the second quarter we continued to advance our clinical trials for NXP800 and NXP900. For NXP800, the Phase 1b clinical trial
in platinum resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer is continuing to enroll patients at approximately 15 clinical sites in the United
States and United Kingdom and we remain on track to provide an update from this study during this fall. In addition, the Investigator-sponsored
clinical trial in cholangiocarcinoma is also recruiting patients, and we plan to provide an update from this trial by the end of 2024.
For NXP900, the dose escalation clinical trial is ongoing, and so far, three cohorts have been completed with no reports of dose limiting
toxicities. We are continuing to plan the next steps in the development of NXP900, with particular interest in combination strategies
with EGFR and ALK inhibitors in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer resistant to EGFR and ALK targeting drugs. Lastly, we
continue to effectively manage our financial resources, which we believe can take us through the key milestones for both development programs".
Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Cash, and cash equivalents were $18.1 million as of June 30, 2024 compared
to $19.5 million as of March 31, 2024. The decrease of $1.4 million in the cash balance during the second quarter of 2024 is a result
of the operating expenses for the quarter, partially offset by the utilization of the at-the market facility.
The Company's net loss was $4.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2024, compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease in net loss of $1.4 million, rounded.
Net loss for the second quarter of 2024 fiscal year included $1.3 million in non-cash stock-based compensation.
Research and development expenses, including non-cash stock-based compensation,
were $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease
of $1.4 million, rounded.
General and administrative expenses, including non-cash stock-based
compensation, were $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31,
2023, an increase of $0.2 million.
Interest income was $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30,
2024, compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $0.1 million.
About Nuvectis Pharma, Inc.
Nuvectis Pharma, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the
development of innovative precision medicines for the treatment of serious conditions of unmet medical need in oncology. The Company is
currently developing two clinical-stage drug candidates, NXP800 and NXP900. NXP800 is an oral small molecule GCN2 activator currently
in a Phase 1b clinical trial for the treatment for platinum resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian carcinoma and in an Investigator-sponsored
clinical trial for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast Track Designation to the NXP800
development program in platinum resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian carcinoma, and Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma.
NXP900 is an oral small molecule inhibitor of the SRC Family of Kinases (SFK), including SRC and YES1. NXP900 has a unique mechanism of
action in that it inhibits both the catalytic and scaffolding functions of the SRC kinase thereby providing complete shutdown of the signaling
pathway. NXP900 is currently in a Phase 1a dose escalation study.
