Nuvalent develops targeted therapies targeting clinically proven kinases in oncology. Its drugs are small molecules that precisely interact with the target kinase in the original tumor and the mutated target kinase in the drug-resistant tumor. This allows the drugs to treat both the original tumor and tumors with emerging resistance mutations. Structure-based design technology addresses the issue of kinase selectivity to minimize side effects and ensure durable treatment responses. The company's pipeline includes clinical trials against non-small cell lung cancer and the treatment of brain metastases.
