'Ascentage Pharma to Present Five Preclinical Studies from Innovative Pipeline at AACR'

 Ascentage Pharma (NASDAQ: AAPG; HKEX: 6855), a global biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovering, developing, and commercializing therapies to address global unmet medical needs primarily for hematological malignancies, today announced that five abstracts highlighting the latest preclinical results from its pipeline programs have been selected for presentations at the 2025 American Association of Cancer Research Annual Meeting (AACR), taking place April 25-30, 2025, in Chicago, Illinois, USA.

The data to be presented encompasses five of the company’s novel drug candidates: BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor olverembatinib (HQP1351), Bcl-2 inhibitor lisaftoclax (APG-2575), FAK/ALK/ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor APG-2449, EED inhibitor APG-5918, and IAP antagonist AS03157.

The AACR Annual Meeting is the critical driver of progress against cancer, the place where scientists, clinicians, other health care professionals, survivors, patients, and advocates gather to share and discuss the latest breakthroughs. From population science and prevention; to cancer biology, translational, and clinical studies; to survivorship and advocacy; the AACR Annual Meeting showcases cutting-edge cancer science and medicine.
