About Redx Pharma Plc
Redx Pharma (AIM: REDX) is a clinical-stage biotechnology
company focused on the discovery and development of novel, small
molecule, highly targeted therapeutics for the treatment of cancer
and fibrotic diseases, aiming initially to progress them to
clinical proof of concept before evaluating options for further
development and potential value creation. Redx's lead oncology
product candidate, the Porcupine inhibitor RXC004, commenced a
Phase 2 programme in November 2021. The Company's lead fibrosis
product candidate, the selective ROCK2 inhibitor RXC007, is in
development for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and commenced a Phase
1 clinical trial in June 2021. Encouraging safety and
pharmacokinetic data has been reported, and a Phase 2 clinical
programme is confirmed to start in 2022. Redx's third drug
candidate, RXC008, a GI-targeted ROCK inhibitor for the treatment
of fibrostenotic Crohn's disease, is currently in pre-IND stage,
with Phase 1 clinical studies expected to commence in 2023.
The Company has a strong track record of discovering new drug
candidates through its core strengths in medicinal chemistry and
translational science, enabling the Company to discover and develop
differentiated therapeutics against biologically or clinically
validated targets. The Company's accomplishments are evidenced not
only by its two wholly-owned clinical-stage product candidates and
rapidly expanding pipeline, but also by its strategic transactions,
including the sale of pirtobrutinib (RXC005, LOXO-305), a BTK
inhibitor now in Phase 3 clinical development by Eli Lilly
following its acquisition of Loxo Oncology and AZD5055/RXC006, a
Porcupine inhibitor targeting fibrotic diseases including
idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which AstraZeneca is
progressing in a Phase 1 clinical study. In addition, Redx has
forged collaborations with Jazz Pharmaceuticals, which includes
JZP815, a preclinical pan-RAF inhibitor, which has received IND
approval and a further oncology programme which is in early stage
research.
