Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals for METYROSINE
L1-79 (DL-alpha-Methyltyrosine) is a tyrosine hydroxylase inhibitor which is under phase 2 clinical development . It is designed to improve the core socialization and communication symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
SM-88 (racemetyrosine) is an orally administered cancer metabolism-based therapy that is chemically altered to be non-functional for fundamental tumor cell processes, including protein synthesis.
In the merger, Syros expects to issue approximately 74.3 million shares of its common stock to TYME stockholders to acquire TYME’s pipeline including SM-88 (D/L-alpha-metyrosine).
The results that SM-88 alone showed antiproliferative effects in each of the sensitive and resistant cells lines, and that the combination of SM-88 and MPS had an additive effect in these models.
SM-88 (D/L-alpha-metyrosine), with MPS arm of Phase 2/3 platform trial in metastatic pancreatic cancer discontinued for futility on primary endpoint of overall survival.
As part of investment in Yamo to support a Phase 2 study of L1-79 in adolescents and adults with ASD. L1-79, the company’s lead candidate, is a tyrosine hydroxylase inhibitor designed to modulate the catecholaminergic pathways implicated in ASD.
SM-88 is an oral investigational modified proprietary tyrosine derivative that interrupt the metabolic processes of cancer cells by breaking down the cells’ key defenses and leading to cell death through oxidative stress and exposure to the body’s natural immune system.
The study demonstrated that SM-88 had promising efficacy and safety outcomes for prostate cancer patients while sparing testosterone. The study also demonstrated a reduction of CTCs that may prove to be a better surrogate for patient outcomes than PSA, particularly for SM-88.
The interim futility review of company's HopES Sarcoma Phase II clinical trial for SM-88 was completed in late July and, based on the analysis of the data and recommendations of Dr. Sant Chawla, the study will proceed with the current trial design as planned.
SM-88 has demonstrated encouraging tumor responses in 15 different cancers across four separate studies with minimal serious grade 3 or higher adverse events
