TuHURA Biosciences, formed by CohBar and Morphogenesis, a UF startup, a Phase 3 immuno-oncology company developing novel therapeutics to overcome resistance to cancer immunotherapy, announced that it has filed an Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the study of its TBS-2025 VISTA inhibiting antibody for the treatment of molecularly defined subsets of AML and other blood related cancers. The IND is being filed following detailed feedback and guidance from the FDA on the IND filed in February 2026.
“We are excited to be the first company to advance a VISTA-inhibiting antibody for investigation in hematologic cancers, targeting molecularly defined subsets of AML, including those with NPM1 and in the future, FLT3-ITD mutations, two of the most common mutations present in approximately 60-70% of patients with AML.
