At the AACR-NCI-ORTC conference, researchers from Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc. presented advances in targeting MYC condensates, revealing a potential breakthrough strategy for treating cancers driven by MYC – a well-established oncogenic driver that is frequently overexpressed or amplified across a range of human cancers.
The U.S. FDA has granted orphan drug designation to Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc.’s DPTX-3186, its first-in-class condensate modulator for the treatment of gastric cancer. The designation follows the recent opening of Dewpoint’s IND application for DPTX-3186 earlier in October, and is the first orphan designation ever granted to a condensate-modulating therapeutic.
Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc. has announced an IND in the U.S. for DPTX-3186, a first-in-class oral condensate modulator designed to selectively disrupt oncogenic Wnt/β-catenin signaling in tumors. Dosing is set to begin before year-end in a phase I/II trial conducted in partnership with cancer centers and opinion leaders in gastric and other Wnt-driven cancers.
Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc. has closed its series D financing to advance DPTX-3186, a first-in-class condensate modulator (c-mod), into clinical trials by year-end and deliver early clinical proof of concept in gastric cancer by the end of next year.
Dewpoint Therapeutics Inc. and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma Corp. have entered a research collaboration worth up to $480 million to advance Dewpoint’s novel TDP-43 small-molecule condensate modulator for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Under terms of the deal, Boston-based Dewpoint will receive an undisclosed up-front payment and is eligible to receive R&D-based milestone payments up to $480 million. Upon reaching those milestones, Osaka, Japan-based MTPC will have an exclusive option to license the program and assume responsibility for global clinical development and commercialization. Dewpoint will also receive tiered royalties on net sales.
