Through the acquisition, Sentynl will commercialize the Zokinvy (lonafarnib) globally. It is the first and only treatment approved by the U.S. FDA to target the cause and symptoms of progeria, also known as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
Zokinvy (lonafarnib) is a first-in-class farnesyltransferase inhibitor. It is approved for Hutchinson- Gilford Progeria Syndrome and Processing-Deficient Progeroid Laminopathies.
Lonafarnib is a first-in-class, oral prenylation inhibitor which inhibits a host enzyme, blocking a critical step in HDV viral assembly. Lonafarnib has been dosed in over 450 chronically infected HDV patients across global clinical sites, including the Phase 3 D-LIVR study.
Zokinvy® (lonafarnib), is a first-in-class disease-modifying agent that blocks the accumulation of defective progerin and progerin-like proteins which leads to cellular instability and premature aging in children and young adults with progeria.
Sarasar (lonafarnib) is a well-characterized, first-in-class, inhibitor of farnesyl-transferase, an enzyme involved in modification of proteins through a process called prenylation. HDV uses this host cell process inside liver cells to complete a key step in its life cycle.
Zokinvy (lonafarnib), is a well-characterized, first-in-class, orally active inhibitor of farnesyl transferase, an enzyme involved in modification of proteins through a process called prenylation.
Zokinvy (lonafarnib) is a first-in-class disease-modifying agent that has demonstrated a statistically significant survival benefit in children and young adults with HGPS.
Under the terms of the agreement, AnGes is responsible for obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval for Zokinvy (lonafarnib) in Japan and will be the exclusive partner for distribution and commercialization.
Lonafarnib is a first-in-class, oral prenylation inhibitor in a global Phase 3 trial. Peginterferon lambda is a first-in-class, type III, well-tolerated interferon entering Phase 3.
Zokinvy is the first and only FDA approved therapy to reduce the risk of death in patients with Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS or Progeria) and for the treatment of processing-deficient progeroid laminopathies.
