BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rhizen Pharmaceuticals AG (Rhizen), a Swiss based privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company announced today that it is presenting data from an ongoing Phase 2 trial of Tenalisib in locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and data from a concluded dose escalation phase of RP12146 at ESMO 2022, Paris from Sept 9-13, 2022.
BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rhizen Pharmaceuticals AG (Rhizen), a Switzerland-based privately held, clinical-stage oncology & inflammation-focussed biopharmaceutical company, announced the release of data on its differentiated next-generation clinical-stage PARP (Poly ADP-Ribose Polymerase) and DHODH (DiHydro Orotate DeHydrogenase) inhibitor programs at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) 2022 Annual Meeting. Rhizen’s poster presentations describe the preclinical characterization and differentiated features of its novel PARP inhibitor (RP12146) and preclinical data supporting the broad positioning of its DHODH inhibitor (RP7214) in AML.
BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rhizen Pharmaceuticals AG (Rhizen), a Switzerland-based privately held, clinical-stage oncology & inflammation-focused biopharmaceutical company, announced today that it has commenced dosing in a multi-center, phase I/Ib trial to evaluate its novel poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor (RP12146) in patients with advanced solid tumors. This two-part multi-center phase I/Ib study is being conducted in Europe and has been designed to initially determine safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of RP12146 and to subsequently assess its anti-tumor activity in expansion cohorts with HRR mutation-enriched ES-SCLC, ovarian and breast cancer patients.
BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rhizen Pharmaceuticals AG (Rhizen), a Switzerland-based privately held, clinical-stage oncology & inflammation-focussed biopharmaceutical company announced today that it has commenced dosing in a phase II trial to evaluate Tenalisib (RP6530; isoform selective dual PI3K ?/? inhibitor with additional SIK3 activity) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This multi-center, randomized phase II study is being conducted in eastern Europe and is designed to assess Tenalisib’s anti-tumor activity and safety across two dose levels. The study also includes translational assessments intended to delineate the effect of Tenalisib’s multivalent mechanism on relevant cytokines/chemokine levels and gene expression changes within the tumor microenvironment.
