Aktis Oncology 

Aktis Oncology, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology firm dedicated to advancing targeted radiopharmaceutical therapies for cancer treatment. Their core innovation lies in a proprietary miniprotein radioconjugate platform, which enables the discovery and development of potent radiopharmaceutical therapies designed to precisely deliver tumor-killing radioisotopes. Among their pipeline candidates is Nectin-4, a miniprotein radioconjugate specifically engineered to treat locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer. Key programs also include AKY-1189, a radioconjugate engineered to target Nectin-4 expressing tumors across various indications such as metastatic urothelial cancer, breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer, and cervical cancer. Another significant therapy, AKY-2519, is under development to deliver radioisotopes to B7-H3 (CD276) expressing tumors, addressing prostate cancer, lung cancer, and other solid tumor types. Originally incorporated as HotKnot Therapeutics, Inc., the company officially rebranded to Aktis Oncology, Inc. in April 2020.
