Tempest inks Roche atezolizumab supply deal for Phase 3 liver cancer trial; extends rights plan
Tempest Therapeutics, Inc.
- Master clinical supply agreement with Roche for free atezolizumab in planned Phase 3 trial of amezalpat (TPST-1120) in first-line unresectable/metastatic HCC.
- Phase 3 study: TPST-1120 + atezolizumab + bevacizumab vs placebo + atezolizumab + bevacizumab; Tempest retains all data from the trial.
- Board extended rights plan to expire after 2025 annual meeting or Oct 2026 if stockholders approve, citing stock undervaluation after positive survival data and FDA alignment.
- Rights plan triggers at 10% beneficial ownership (15% for passive institutions), with grandfathering for existing holders above threshold.
