About NX-5948: NX-5948 is an investigational,
orally bioavailable degrader of BTK that is currently being
evaluated in a Phase 1a/b clinical trial in adults with relapsed or
refractory B-cell malignancies. Additional information on the Phase
1a/b clinical trial can be accessed at www.clinicaltrials.gov
(NCT05131022).
About NX-2127: NX-2127 is an investigational,
orally bioavailable degrader of BTK and cereblon neosubstrates
Ikaros (IKZF1) and Aiolos (IKZF3). NX-2127 is currently being
evaluated in a Phase 1a/b clinical trial in adults with relapsed or
refractory B-cell malignancies. Additional information on the
ongoing clinical trial can be accessed at www.clinicaltrials.gov
(NCT04830137).
About Nurix Therapeutics, Inc.
Nurix Therapeutics is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company
focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of
innovative small molecules and antibody therapies based on the
modulation of cellular protein levels as a novel treatment approach
for cancer, inflammatory conditions, and other challenging
diseases. Leveraging extensive expertise in E3 ligases together
with proprietary DNA-encoded libraries, Nurix has built DELigase,
an integrated discovery platform, to identify and advance novel
drug candidates targeting E3 ligases, a broad class of enzymes that
can modulate proteins within the cell. Nurix’s drug discovery
approach is to either harness or inhibit the natural function of E3
ligases within the ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively
decrease or increase cellular protein levels. Nurix’s wholly owned,
clinical stage pipeline includes targeted protein degraders of
Bruton’s tyrosine kinase, a B-cell signaling protein, and
inhibitors of Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B, an E3
ligase that regulates activation of multiple immune cell types
including T cell and NK cells. Nurix is headquartered in San
Francisco, California. For additional information visit
