Spyre Therapeutics Inc. is off to a good start in its goal to create the best combination therapy for inflammatory bowel disease, a group of chronic, relapsing autoimmune conditions of the digestive tract that encompasses Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. The Waltham, Mass.-based company estimates the market for IBD is currently at approximately $25 billion but will jump to around $40 billion in 2030.
Researchers from Spyre Therapeutics Inc. reported on the therapeutic efficacy of combining anti-TL1A and anti-IL-23 antibodies in preclinical models of colitis.
Targeting an ultrarare disease affecting about 250 U.S. residents, Immedica Pharma AB’s Loargys (pegzilarginase) won accelerated FDA approval to treat hyperargininemia in those ages 2 and older with arginase 1 deficiency (ARG1-D).
Paragon Therapeutics Inc. and Spyre Therapeutics Inc. jointly presented preclinical data for the novel extended half-life humanized anti-IL-23 monoclonal antibody (MAb), SPY-003, being developed for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Recent advances in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, have shown that inhibiting the interaction between the α4β7 integrin and the endothelial ligand mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MADCAM1) has proven useful, safe and effective.
Preventing the interaction between the cellular adhesion integrin α4β7 and endothelial ligand mucosal addressin cell-adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) is a validated strategy for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis treatment. Paragon Therapeutics Inc. and Spyre Therapeutics Inc. have reported preclinical efficacy data on SPY-001, a long-acting monoclonal antibody targeting integrin α4β7.
Researchers from Paragon Therapeutics Inc. and Spyre Therapeutics Inc. have reported preclinical data for SPY-002, a novel extended half-life, fully human IgG1 monoclonal antibody (MAb) targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like ligand 1A (TL1A), being developed for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Just over a month after expressing “substantial doubt that the company can continue as a going concern,” Aeglea Biotherapeutics Inc. came back from the brink with a deal to take over Spyre Therapeutics Inc. in a stock-for-stock transaction, signed concurrently with an agreement to raise $210 million via the sale of series A preferred shares.
