“We believe fadraciclib is establishing a leadership position among MCL1 suppressing compounds in development. Our recent, peer-reviewed publication elaborates the mechanistic rationale for fadraciclib as an anti-cancer therapy signifying the benefits of inhibiting CDK2 and CDK9, two complementary cancer pathways,” said Spiro Rombotis, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continue to be encouraged by observations of deep partial response and prolonged stable disease with tumor shrinkage as an intravenously administered monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors and antileukemic activity in combination with venetoclax. In parallel with evaluating fadraciclib in certain leukemias, we are executing a precision medicine strategy to evaluate the compound in patients with solid tumors with study enrollment expected to begin by the first quarter of 2021. As the global pandemic continues to unfold, our priorities are to ensure patient and employee safety and support efforts to stem COVID-19 disease as part of our corporate social responsibility. Despite the challenges we remain committed to our strategy of building an innovative pipeline addressing the rising problem of cancer resistance and achieving our clinical milestones to drive shareholder value.”
