Accelerated Approval regulatory
"designed to support a potential Accelerated Approval submission."
Accelerated approval is a process that allows new medical treatments to be approved more quickly than usual if they address serious or life-threatening conditions and show promising early results. For investors, it signals that a treatment may reach the market sooner, potentially boosting a company's prospects, but it also involves some uncertainty since full evidence of effectiveness is still being gathered.
Phase 3 medical
"plans to initiate a global randomized confirmatory Phase 3 trial by midyear 2026"
Phase 3 is the late-stage clinical testing step for a new drug or medical treatment, where the product is given to large groups of patients to confirm effectiveness, monitor side effects, and compare it to standard care. Successful Phase 3 results are often the final scientific hurdle before regulators decide on approval and market launch—like passing a final exam before graduation—and can sharply change a company's valuation and future revenue prospects.
IND-enabling studies medical
"STAT6 degrader, NX-3911, in IND-enabling studies."
Ind-enabling studies are early research efforts that test whether a new drug or treatment is safe and effective enough to move forward in development. They are like preliminary tests to ensure a product works as intended before investing more resources into large-scale trials. For investors, these studies are important because successful results can signal potential progress toward bringing a new product to market, impacting its future value.
targeted protein degradation technical
"focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of targeted protein degradation medicines"
Targeted protein degradation is a drug approach that uses small molecules to mark harmful or malfunctioning proteins inside cells so the cell’s own disposal system breaks them down, rather than simply blocking their activity. For investors, it matters because this method can potentially tackle diseases that traditional drugs cannot reach, offering a new class of therapies with broad commercial and patent potential—like switching from silencing a problem to removing it entirely.
deferred revenue financial
"Deferred revenue, current | 18,754 | | | 17,580"
Cash a company has already received for goods or services it has promised but not yet delivered; it's recorded as a liability because the company still owes that product, service, or future revenue recognition. For investors, deferred revenue signals upcoming work or deliveries that will convert into reported sales over time and affects short-term obligations, cash flow quality, and how quickly a firm can grow recognized revenue—think of it like prepaid subscriptions or gift cards a business must honor later.

Nurix plans to initiate a global randomized confirmatory Phase 3 trial by midyear 2026 to support full approval. The Phase 3 study will compare once daily bexobrutideg monotherapy to the most recently approved non-covalent inhibitor, pirtobrutinib, in patients with r/r CLL whose disease has progressed after prior BTK inhibitor therapy.
NX-5948-301
Nurix continues to enroll select cohorts in the NX-5948-301 Phase 1a/1b clinical trial (NCT05131022) in patients with relapsed or refractory B cell malignancies. The Phase 1b study includes cohorts testing the safety and efficacy of the 600 mg dose of bexobrutideg in earlier lines of therapy in CLL patients. Updated data from this study are anticipated to be presented at upcoming medical meetings throughout 2026. More information on the ongoing Phase 1a/1b trial of bexobrutideg is available at www.clinicaltrials.gov.
Healthy volunteer SAD/MAD study
Nurix is conducting a Phase 1 single ascending and multiple ascending dose (SAD/MAD) study (NCT06717269) to evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety of a new tablet formulation of bexobrutideg. This study is intended to support an IND filing and enable expansion into immunology and inflammation indications in 2026. More information on the Phase 1 SAD/MAD trial of bexobrutideg is available at www.clinicaltrials.gov.



Zelebrudomide
Zelebrudomide is an orally bioavailable degrader of BTK and the cereblon neosubstrates IKZF1 (Ikaros) and IKZF3 (Aiolos) designed for the treatment of relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies. Nurix is conducting a Phase 1a/1b clinical trial (NCT04830137), including a Phase 1b expansion cohort focused on patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. Nurix is enrolling in the dose escalation cohort of the Phase 1a/1b trial using the chirally controlled drug product. Additional information on the zelebrudomide clinical trial can be accessed at www.clinicaltrials.gov.
NX-1607
NX-1607 is an investigational oral inhibitor of the E3 ligase Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B (CBL-B) being developed for immuno-oncology indications, including a range of solid tumor types and lymphomas. Nurix is evaluating NX-1607 in an ongoing Phase 1 trial (NCT05107674) in adults in a range of oncology indications. This study includes a thorough investigation of both dose and schedule in the Phase 1a portion. Additional information on the NX-1607 clinical trial can be accessed at www.clinicaltrials.gov.
Strategic collaborations with Gilead, Sanofi and Pfizer
Sanofi continues to advance the STAT6 degrader, NX-3911, in IND-enabling studies. Nurix retains the right to opt-in after clinical proof of concept to a 50/50 U.S. profit share and co-development agreement. Gilead continues to advance the IRAK4 degrader, GS-6791, in an ongoing first-in-human Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers. Nurix retains the right to opt-in after Phase 1 to a 50/50 U.S. profit share and co-development, subject to certain restriction.
