Kazia Therapeutics has in-licensed a novel SETDB1-targeted epigenetic drug platform from QIMR Berghofer, including the lead candidate MSETC, designed to restore immune response in treatment-resistant cancers. This acquisition expands Kazia's oncology pipeline to address tumor immune evasion at the chromatin level, complementing its existing therapies targeting gene expression and protein degradation. The SETDB1 program is in preclinical development with plans for IND-enabling studies and potential strategic partnerships. Kazia aims to advance this alongside its PD-L1 degrader program, with combined development costs estimated at $6 million over 18 months, supported by Australian R&D tax incentives.
