About this update from Kairos Pharma, Ltd.
Kairos Pharma Ltd. (NYSE American: KAPA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on innovative cancer therapeutics, provides a mid-year update for 2026 and a look ahead to the rest of the year in a letter to shareholders from CEO John Yu, M.D.: To our valued Kairos Pharma Shareholders, As we move toward the close of the second quarter, Kairos has been focused on adding some potentially impactful new development candidates to our existing pipeline. We announced the signing of a term sheet for a strategic asset acquisition with Celyn Therapeutics, Inc., a privately held biotechnology company backed by OrbiMed and Torrey Pines Investment. The Company will be acquiring the worldwide rights for a highly differentiated, clinical-stage oncology asset targeting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and esophageal and gastric cancer: CL-741, a Phase 1-ready, orally available type IIb c-MET kinase inhibitor. CL-741 is a Phase 1-ready therapeutic candidate targeting EGFR-mutated lung cancer, a treatment landscape valued at an estimated $16.2B in 2026 (Future Market Insights). We intend to utilize Kairos’s proven expertise in developing drug-resistance therapeutics and establishing strong clinical partnerships to accelerate CL-741's pathway for patients with EGFR-mutant and c-MET-driven lung cancers. CL-741 will add to our already existing portfolio of exciting targets, including ENV-105, KROS-201, KROS-102 and ENV-205. We remain committed to seeing these therapeutics through the clinical system alongside our partners utilizing non-dilutive clinical funding as much as possible.
