Corbus Pharmaceuticals CRB-701 ASCO 2026 Pre-Meeting Detail (May 22): Phase 1/2 Nectin-4 ADC in HNSCC + Cervical Cancer; Oral Cervical Session May 29, HNSCC Poster May 30, Mid-2026 Registrational Study Start in 2L HNSCC
Corbus Pharmaceuticals announced ASCO 2026 abstracts featuring updated clinical data from the Phase 1/2 study of CRB-701 (SYS6002), a next-generation antibody-drug conjugate targeting Nectin-4. The oral presentation in cervical cancer is scheduled for Thursday May 29 at 4:57 PM CDT; the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) poster on Friday May 30 at 4:30 PM CDT. The data will include clinical response durability and HNSCC patient-subgroup analysis. Corbus reached broad alignment with the FDA on registrational-study designs in second-line HNSCC and cervical cancer, enabling potential accelerated approval based on objective response rate and full approval on overall survival. The company expects to initiate a registrational study for CRB-701 in second-line HNSCC mid-2026. CRB-701 targets the same Nectin-4 antigen as enfortumab vedotin (Padcev) and Bicycle Therapeutics' zelenectide pevedotin — the second-line HNSCC opportunity is the segment where the three programs will compete most directly.
