In a statement, Nurix Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIX) said that it joined forces with Roche to develop and commercialize bexobrutideg, a potential best-in-class oral degrader of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK).

According to the two parties, the collaboration encompasses a comprehensive clinical development plan spanning malignant hematology, immunology and neurology intended to explore the full clinical potential of BTK degradation across diverse patient populations. In addition to the Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, the collaboration plans to pursue multiple label-enabling studies across a range of malignant hematology indications as monotherapy and in combination regimens,  and expand development into immune-mediated diseases, including Phase 2 trials in MS and CSU.

“Partnering with Roche, a world leader in the treatment of B-cell malignancies, positions Nurix to fully realize the potential of bexobrutideg across multiple indications in oncology, immunology, and neurology,” Nurix Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIX) President and CEO Arthur Sands said.

As part of the agreement, Nurix Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIX) is set to receive $700 million in upfront cash payments and is eligible to receive up to $2.3 billion upon milestone achievement.
