About Narmafotinib
Narmafotinib (AMP945) is the Company’s best-in-class inhibitor of the protein FAK, a protein overexpressed in pancreatic and other cancers, and a drug target gaining increasing attention for its role in
solid tumours. The drug, which is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of FAK, has shown promising
data in a range of preclinical cancer studies. The drug has successfully completed a healthy volunteer
study, and is currently in an open-label Phase 2a trial in pancreatic cancer where a combination of
narmafotinib and the chemotherapies gemcitabine and Abraxane® is being assessed for safety,
tolerability and efficacy.
About the ACCENT Trial
The ACCENT trial is entitled ‘A Phase 1b/2a, Multicentre, Open Label Study of the Pharmacokinetics,
Safety and Efficacy of AMP945 in Combination with Nab-paclitaxel and Gemcitabine in Pancreatic
Cancer Patients’.
The ACCENT trial explores the use of narmafotinib in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy
of gemcitabine and Abraxane® in first-line patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. The trial is a
single-arm open label study conducted in two stages. The first stage (Phase 1b), completed in
November 2023, identified a 400 mg oral daily dose of narmafotinib, given in the days preceding
regular chemotherapy infusion, as safe and well tolerated.

This second stage (Phase 2a), of the trial is designed to assess drug efficacy in combination with
gemcitabine and Abraxane. The primary endpoints are Objective Response Rate (ORR) and Duration
on Trial (DOT) with secondary endpoints being Progression Free Survival (PFS) and Overall Survival
(OS). Safety and tolerability will continue to be assessed.
More information about the ACCENT trial, including a list of participating sites, can be found via the
