Work at Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has led to the identification of new protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitors potentially useful for the treatment of cancer.
Protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitors have been disclosed in an Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. patent and described as potentially useful for the treatment of cancer.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has out-licensed China rights to its colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor inhibitor, pimicotinib, to Merck KGaA in a deal worth up to $605.5 million. Pimicotinib is in phase III trials in patients with tenosynovial giant cell tumors in China, the U.S., Canada and Europe.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has received clearance from China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) to conduct clinical trials in China of ABSK-051, a novel small-molecule CD73 inhibitor, for advanced solid tumors.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has received FDA clearance of its IND application for ABSK-012, a highly selective small-molecule inhibitor of fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4), for advanced solid tumors.
Four other companies want to replicate Biomarin Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s recent success as they seek approvals to treat the rare but most prevalent genetic form of dwarfism, achondroplasia. The U.S. FDA approved the sNDA for injectable Voxzogo (vosoritide), fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) inhibitor from Biomarin on Oct. 20.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. announced positive first-in-human data for its highly selective fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 4 inhibitor, irpagratinib (ABSK-011), for treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with FGF19 overexpression, which is seen in roughly 30% of liver cancers.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd. has divulged pyrazole derivatives acting as protein arginine N-methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) inhibitors reported to be useful for the treatment of cancer.
Abbisko Therapeutics Co. Ltd.’s colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R) inhibitor, pimicotinib (ABSK-021), is advancing from phase I trials to pivotal phase III trials in patients with tenosynovial giant cell tumors (TGCT) in the U.S. and China following clearance from both regulators.
