American Marconi Wireless News - Onco-Innovations Advances Progress Towards First-in-Human Trial with Avance Clinical Start-Up Agreement

Under the agreement, Avance will provide expert clinical and regulatory support to Onco as the Company pursues trials targeting advanced-stage cancers with PTEN¹ or SHP-1² deficiency. Deliverables include the development of an Investigator's Brochure summarizing the drug's preclinical performance, the authorship of a detailed clinical trial protocol, and independent medical and statistical review related to a Phase I clinical study. These documents are essential prerequisites for regulatory agencies to evaluate the safety and scientific merit of an investigational therapy.

Additionally, Avance will perform a nonclinical gap analysis, reviewing existing data to identify any remaining preclinical work required for a future Investigational New Drug (IND) application. The agreement also covers the planning and preparation of a pre-IND meeting with the with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), a critical regulatory milestone aimed at aligning Onco's trial design with agency expectations and reducing development risk.

"This collaboration with Avance is another example of our progress as we continue to move towards discovery to clinical development. It's about turning promising science into a real clinical opportunity for patients. Their regulatory and operational expertise will be essential in shaping a trial that is not only scientifically sound but also built for execution. We're excited to enter this collaboration with Avance," stated Thomas O'Shaughnessy, CEO of Onco-Innovations.
