Nuvation Bio works on experimental medicines for cancer, testing them in clinical studies rather than selling approved products. Its most advanced candidate, NUV-422, is a small molecule built to block CDK2, CDK4 and CDK6, enzymes involved in cell division that are often implicated in tumor growth.
Beyond that lead program, the company is developing several other compounds aimed at different cancer-related targets. NUV-868 is an oral BET inhibitor meant to affect proteins tied to tumor growth and cell differentiation, while NUV-569 targets Wee1 kinase to interfere with how cancer cells repair DNA damage. NUV-1182 works against adenosine receptors, and a separate drug-drug conjugate platform is being built to pair a PARP inhibitor with existing cancer treatments, with a focus on ER-positive breast and ovarian cancers.
The company traces back to 2018, when it was founded under the name RePharmation Inc., adopting the Nuvation Bio name in April 2019. It is headquartered in New York, New York, and its shares trade on the NYSE under the ticker NUVB.
Nuvation Bio’s GekkoIndex — Gekko’s 0 to 100 smart money score — reads 71.3, in the Buying zone, down 6.5 points over five sessions.
