Registration Statement on Form F-3, as amended

Filed: July 19, 2018

File No. 333-226240

Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Kazia Therapeutics Limited (the “Company”) hereby requests acceleration of its Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-226240), as amended, so that it will become effective on August 30, 2018, at 4:30 p.m. (Washington D.C. time), or as soon thereafter as practicable.

The Company hereby acknowledges that:

 

1.

should the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

 

2.

the action of the Commission or the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Company from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and

 

3.

the Company may not assert staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

If you have any questions, or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to call Nathaniel Douglas at Baker McKenzie, the Company’s outside counsel, at (202) 835-4277.

Sincerely yours,

/s/ Kate Hill

Kate Hill

Company Secretary
