What Sparked Kazia Therapeutics' Over 51% After-Hours Surge? - Kazia Therapeutics (NASDAQ:KZIA)
Kazia's patient with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer showed an initial immune-complete response, surpassing typical 0.6-4% complete response rates for pembrolizumab monotherapy.
- Kazia Therapeutics Limited announced a patient with stage IV triple‑negative breast cancer treated under an FDA-authorized single-patient expanded access protocol combining paxalisib with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy achieved an initial immune-complete response per iRECIST criteria.
- Kazia and investigators hypothesize the paxalisib plus pembrolizumab and chemotherapy strategy addresses checkpoint inhibitor resistance, noting `Although this is a single expanded-access case and requires confirmatory imaging, the depth of response aligns closely with our mechanistic hypothesis.`
- Imaging showed the patient had an 86% reduction in tumor burden after three weeks, with a PET/CT scan after three months confirming complete metabolic resolution consistent with an initial iCR.
- Unless Kazia timely requests a hearing, Nasdaq staff indicated on Tuesday that its ADSs could be suspended or delisted, and the company plans to request a hearing to stay any action.
- Kazia intends to request a follow-up FDA Type C meeting to discuss paxalisib survival data and will present at the Brisbane Cancer Conference and SABCS from December 10-14, 2025.
