Lupin To Present Cancer Drug Data at ASCO 2025


Global pharmaceutical firm Lupin Limited will present results from its Phase 1a clinical trial of LNP7457—a novel PRMT5 inhibitor—at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago from 30 May to 3 June 2025. The data will be showcased during the Developmental Therapeutics—Molecularly Targeted Agents and Tumour Biology session on 2 June, between 1:30 pm and 4:30 pm (CDT), at Poster Board #422.

LNP7457 is a SAM-competitive PRMT5 inhibitor being developed for monotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumours. According to trial findings, the drug has shown a favourable safety and tolerability profile, with pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) data supporting further development. Food intake was found to have no impact on drug metabolism.

The maximum tolerated dose and the recommended Phase 2 dose were established based on cumulative safety, PK/PD, and efficacy data, and are consistent with preclinical models and existing safety profiles of PRMT5 inhibitors.

Vinita Gupta, CEO of Lupin, commented, “We are pleased to share encouraging data from our Phase I trial. LNP7457 represents a novel epigenetic therapeutic with significant promise, and reinforces our commitment to advancing innovative treatments for cancers with limited options.”

Lupin has already commenced its Phase 1b trial in India and aims to further evaluate LNP7457 for various oncology indications where unmet clinical needs persist.
