“Brain metastases are rapidly emerging as a key pillar of paxalisib’s clinical development,” said Dr. John Friend, Chief Executive Officer of Kazia. “We have seen a high level of interest from clinicians in the emerging data from this patient population, and it is exciting to now have that interest complemented by FDA’s award of Fast Track Designation. With important data read-outs expected in adult and childhood brain cancer during CY2023, we will be working with investigators and advisors to drive forward our research in brain metastases also.”
