Developing inobrodib (CCS1477), first-in-class p300/CBP inhibitor to treat specific cancers.
About us
Inobrodib is the first small molecule drug in the clinic targeting twin proteins p300 and CBP. It is formulated as a capsule taken orally. p300/CBP are twin (paralogue) acetyl transferases, and importantly, gene activating proteins that are known to play an important role in the progression of certain cancers. CellCentric’s pioneering drug is in Phase I/II clinical trials to evaluate its effectiveness to treat specific solid tumours, as well as haematological malignancies (blood cancers). These represent major clinical unmet needs, delivering a new therapy for people with cancer, who otherwise have few alternatives.

Beyond and alongside antibody-based therapies for multiple myeloma, there is a need for novel oral drugs with new modes of action, that are easy to take in the community. New financing maintains inobrodib’s momentum to registration studies. RA Capital Mgmt and Pfizer Ventures now join Morningside as shareholders. Further contribution too from the American Cancer Society’s BrightEdge fund.

We are pioneering a new approach to treat multiple myeloma, with an oral p300/CBP inhibitor drug, inobrodib. Huge progress has been made in treating the disease, particularly with recent antibody-based therapies (BCMA targeting agents, TCEs). But 75% of people diagnosed still die of the condition. Beyond and alongside existing approaches, there is a need for oral agents with novel modes of action. Community based delivery also helps address health inequities, meeting the needs of people who are not suitable or able to access more complex treatments in specialist centres. New financing maintains full momentum to registration studies. RA Capital Management and Pfizer Ventures now join Morningside as shareholders. Further additional contribution too from the American Cancer Society’s impact fund, BrightEdge. Total funding: $60.7m. Great to have Laura Stoppel of RA Capital joining the Board, as well as Irena Melnikova from Pfizer Ventures. Press release: https://lnkd.in/d9QpfvFz Endpoints coverage: https://lnkd.in/dg4geESK. Many thanks Lei Lei Wu Cambridge Business Weekly: https://lnkd.in/e4ZsaJkA Many thanks Tony Quested #multiplemyeloma Will West Debbie Haynes Tomasz Knurowski Karen Clegg Kris Frese Thea Stanway

Oral drug regimes, delivered in community settings, have the ability to reach wider sections of society. The FDA continue to take diversity and inclusion seriously. Latest guidance: https://lnkd.in/eT5AhNTP CellCentric is developing a new oral treatment for multiple myeloma. While cell and antibody-based therapies have brought great progress for patients, they can be complex to administer, and not suitable for many. There is a growing need for complementary approaches, able to be administered in community settings. Despite significant gains in recent times, 75% of people diagnosed with multiple myeloma still die of the disease. There remains a real need for continued progress. #multiplemyeloma Will West Debbie Haynes Tomasz Knurowski Kris Frese Karen Clegg
