Nuvectis Pharma Rises in Pre-Market Following FDA Orphan Drug Designation for NXP800, Fueling Optimism Ahead of Key Clinical Data

Global Markets News

Nuvectis Pharma (NASDAQ: NVCT) has achieved a significant milestone with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granting Orphan Drug Designation for its lead candidate, NXP800. This designation, specifically for the treatment of ARID1a-deficient ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers, marks a critical step forward in Nuvectis’s mission to address unmet needs in oncology. Orphan Drug Designation: A Strategic Advantage The FDA’s Orphan Drug Designation is awarded to drugs that show promise in treating rare diseases affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. For Nuvectis, this designation not only validates the potential of NXP800 but also provides several strategic benefits. These include tax credits for clinical trial costs, exemption from certain FDA fees, and potentially seven years of market exclusivity upon approval. NXP800 targets ARID1a-deficient cancers, a subset of ovarian cancers that present significant treatment challenges. The Orphan Drug Designation underscores the importance of this candidate in potentially offering a new, more effective treatment option for patients with this specific genetic mutation. Background and Market Impact This latest achievement builds on Nuvectis Pharma’s earlier successes. Earlier this year, the FDA granted Fast Track Designation to NXP800 for its development in platinum-resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer. The Fast Track status, combined with the Orphan Drug Designation, highlights the urgent need for innovative treatments in this space and positions NXP800 as a potential game-changer in oncology. Financial analysts have taken note of Nuvectis’s progress. H.C. Wainwright recently reiterated its buy rating for Nuvectis, setting a price target of $21. This optimistic outlook reflects the market’s confidence in the company’s strategic direction, particularly as it prepares to release key clinical data later this year. Anticipation for Upcoming Results The next few months are expected to be pivotal for Nuvectis Pharma. The company is poised to share updates from its ongoing Phase 1b clinical trial of NXP800, which targets patients with platinum-resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian cancer. This trial is being closely watched, as positive results could significantly advance the development of NXP800, bringing it closer to pivotal trials and eventual regulatory approval. Additionally, Nuvectis is also conducting a Phase 1a dose escalation study for NXP900, its second key candidate, which targets YES1/SRC-driven tumors. Updates from this study are expected to provide further insights into the safety and potential efficacy of NXP900. ### Nuvvectis' Full announcment, titled " Nuvectis Pharma Announces Orphan Drug Designation Granted by the FDA for NXP800 for the Treatment of ARID1a-deficient Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Cancers" was published on August 29th, 2024. ### This article is for informational purposes only and is not intended to serve as financial, investment or any form of professional advice, recommendation or endorsement.

Liquid Death Becomes Official Partner of Italy’s Campobasso Football Club

Club Underdog

Liquid Death, the healthy beverage platform and one of the fastest-growing non-alcoholic brands, is now the official water and flavored sparkling water partner of Italy’s Campobasso Football Club (Campobasso), which is co-owned by Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, Emmy Award-winning hosts of LIVE with Kelly & Mark, the top-rated talk show in the United States. Liquid Death was unveiled as a partner of Campobasso in late July on LIVE, with a guest appearance and jersey swap by Ryan Reynolds. The Deadpool star was gifted the new Liquid Death branded Campobasso FC jersey by Consuelos while exchanging a Wrexham A.F.C. jersey, the Welsh club which has gained global popularity through its “Welcome to Wrexham” series on FX. “The Campobasso journey has been a fairytale over the past two years, taking this club from the bottom to winning two consecutive promotions for the first time in our 100-plus year history,” said Consuelos. “Much in the same way Liquid Death has built one of the boldest brands on the planet right now, we built Campobasso with precision, fearlessness and by dreaming big. Campobasso FC has now arrived and is ready to play on big stages, and what better brand to partner with than Liquid Death, who has taken on the giants and won just as we intend to do on the pitch.” As part of a multi-year agreement that makes Liquid Death the official water partner of Campobasso FC, fans will see Liquid Death at all Campobasso FC concession stands, on stadium signage, on special edition jerseys, and wrapped around the team's tour bus. Liquid Death will also collaborate on LED ad boards, the player tunnel walkway, product kiosks, unique activations, and events for Campobasso FC fans in North America, and more. “This is our first venture into European football, and we couldn't be more excited for it," said Ryan Heuser, Liquid Death’s senior vice president of experiential marketing. “We’re thrilled to bring our infinitely recyclable, ice-cold cans of Liquid Death to the highly passionate fans of Southern Italy’s historical club. We’ll be on the road with the team as the exclusive sponsor of the team bus and carried at all concession stands at the Molinari Avicor Stadium in Campobasso.” Matt Rizzetta, Chairman of North Sixth Group, parent company and operator of Campobasso FC, oversaw the revival of the team from near obscurity, with only 70 fans at matches during its first game in 2022, to attracting 30,000 fans for its celebration upon the club’s triumphant promotion to Serie C in 2024. “The partnership between Camopbasso FC and Liquid Death brings together two of today’s feel-good underdog stories in sports and water,” said Matt Rizzetta, Chairman of North Sixth Group, parent company of Campobasso FC. “With Mike Cessario and Liquid Death, our journeys intersect in many ways and share the same values of perseverance, courage, and overcoming the odds. We couldn’t think of a better partner with whom to join hands as we both write the next chapter in our respective underdog stories.” Located between Rome and Naples in the region of Molise, Campobasso carries a proud football tradition that dates back more than 100 years. The team has one of the most passionate followings in central and southern Italy, having beaten some of the most successful teams in Italian football such as Juventus, AC Milan, and Lazio, during its glory years of the 1980’s. In 2022, fans of Campobasso were at risk of losing football completely after the team was denied entrance to the professional leagues. On the brink of losing all hope of competing in Italian football, North Sixth Group acquired Campobasso along with Ripa and Consuelos, restarting from the fifth tier of the Italian football pyramid. Since acquiring the club, Campobasso has won two consecutive championships and has been promoted to Serie C, the third tier of Italian professional football. Liquid Death uses comedy and entertainment to promote both sustainability and healthy products. Liquid Death’s social following captures more than 9.5 million followers across TikTok and Instagram, making it the third most followed beverage brand globally. The company donates a portion of proceeds to nonprofits as part of their partnership with 5Gyres and the Thirst Project.

K3 Holdings and Alpine LA Properties Congratulate Team USA for Winning Paris Olympics Medal Count

K3 Holdings

K3 Holdings, a privately held real estate investment firm with extensive holdings throughout the United States and Alpine LA Properties, a leasing company providing newly remodeled apartments at affordable rates in Los Angeles, congratulated Team USA for their outstanding performance in the Paris Olympics. Following more than two weeks of competition and lifetimes of preparation, athletes representing the United States won 126 medals (40 gold) leading all other countries at the conclusion of the games in Paris. "Congratulations to Team USA for showcasing the true spirit of excellence and determination, bringing home the most medals and making us all proud,” stated Michael Kadisha, a Principal of K3 Holdings. "Winning the most medals is a triumph of skill and perseverance, and more so, a testament to the unity and resilience that define the American spirit. Dedication, hard work, and a never-give-up attitude leads to greatness, and we are all inspired by the performance of our athletes in Paris.” "In sports, as in life, the way we handle victory says as much about us as the victory itself. Gratitude and humility elevate every achievement. Winning with grace and losing with dignity are the hallmarks of true champions,” Michael Kadisha continued. “The K3 Holdings and Alpine teams were impressed at how Team USA proved themselves to be real winners by celebrating their victories while honoring their opponents with respect and gratitude.” The Olympics serve as a unique platform where nations from every corner of the globe come together in a spirit of friendly competition. Beyond the medals and records, the Olympics foster an environment where cultural exchange and mutual understanding thrive. In a world often divided by differences, the Olympics create a space where adversaries can engage in dialogue, learn from one another, and find common ground through shared values of sportsmanship and respect. "The Olympics is a powerful testament to how people from diverse cultures and backgrounds can come together to achieve greatness," stated Nathan Kadisha, a K3 Principal. "The actions of Olympic athletes in Paris show us that dedication, perseverance, and mutual respect transcend borders and ideologies. These are the values that can truly unite us and drive real change beyond the games." “We are excited that Los Angeles will be hosting the Olympics four years from now,” Michael Kadisha said. “By watching athletes from rival nations compete with honor and integrity, in our own community, we will once again be reminded that even in competition, there is room for cooperation, empathy, and the possibility of resolving conflicts peacefully.” ### For more information or to schedule an interview with a K3 spokesperson, please contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or dan@danrene.com Contact Details K3 Holdings/Alpine LA Properties Dan Rene +1 202-329-8357 dan@danrene.com Company Website https://k3holdings.com/
