Mechanism-first
We begin with the biology of cell-cycle regulation and identify the patients most likely to respond.
Precision Oncology
Zentia is unlocking a new targeted approach to cancer — a biomarker-driven, oral therapy designed to give physicians and patients more options where few non-chemotherapy treatments exist today.
Innovating for patients
Zentia is developing an oral, first-in-class therapy that targets a central regulator of cell-cycle progression — breaking down the safeguards that cancer cells rely on to survive and grow.
Built on more than a decade of WEE1 biology, our lead candidate is designed to provide physicians and patients a choice for a targeted, non-chemotherapy option where few alternatives exist today.
Our approach
We translate deep mechanistic science into therapies matched to the biology of each patient's disease — not just to a tumor type.
Our mission is clear — to unburden patients through a more convenient, targeted approach to cancer care.— Zentia Leadership Team
We begin with the biology of cell-cycle regulation and identify the patients most likely to respond.
Biomarker-driven enrollment pairs each patient with the therapy most relevant to their tumor's biology.
An oral, once-daily formulation designed to fit into daily life — not a hospital schedule.
How we work
Deep mechanistic biology of cell-cycle control pinpoints novel, druggable targets.
Compound selection, biomarker validation and registration-ready study design.
Global, biomarker-driven trials advancing from first-in-human to registration.
An oral, convenient therapy designed to unburden patients and their families.

An oral therapy that patients can take at home is a meaningful shift. The biomarker-driven design means we can finally match the right patient to the right treatment.
The team's depth of WEE1 biology is unmatched. It's rare to see a program so thoughtfully designed around the underlying science of the disease.
As a patient, the idea of a more convenient option — without infusion visits — gives me real hope. Zentia treats us like people, not just diagnoses.
For patients & physicians
Answers about our investigational therapy, clinical trials, and what participation involves. Always speak with your care team about what's right for you.
Our lead candidate is an oral, once-daily kinase inhibitor taken at home. It targets a key regulator of cell-cycle progression that cancer cells depend on to survive and divide.
Trials use a companion diagnostic to identify biomarker-positive patients whose tumors carry Cyclin E1 amplification — pairing each person with the therapy most relevant to their disease biology.
No. It is a targeted therapy designed to interrupt a specific mechanism in cancer cells. It is being developed as a non-chemotherapy option with a more convenient, oral administration.
