CRC is becoming more deadly for younger patients. In the late 1990s, CRC was the fourth-leading cause of cancer death in both men and women younger than 50 years old. In this age group, CRC is now the top cause of cancer deaths in men and the second-leading cause of cancer deaths in women. At Sapience Therapeutics, Inc., we continue to be committed to advancing therapies for patients with difficult-to-treat cancers. Our first-in-class β-catenin antagonist, ST316, selectively targets the Wnt pathway, which drives more than 80% of CRCs.

Targeting Cancer at the Source of the Disease
About us
At Sapience, we think boldly about the possibilities for treating cancer. We aim to discover and develop peptide therapeutics to address oncogenic and immunogenic dysregulation that drive cancer. Our pipeline of SPEARs™ (Stabilized Peptides Engineered Against Regulation) disrupt intracellular protein-protein interactions, enabling targeting of transcription factors which have traditionally been considered undruggable. We are advancing our lead programs, ST316, a first-in-class antagonist of β-catenin, and ST101, a first-in-class antagonist of C/EBPβ, through Phase 1-2 clinical trials. Please engage with us on this platform to learn more!

Colorectal cancer incidence is on the rise in younger adults. In 1995, the proportion of newly diagnosed patients younger than age 55 was 11%. In 2019, this proportion grew to 20% – nearly doubling. At Sapience Therapeutics, Inc., we are committed to advancing therapies for this devastating disease. Our first-in-class β-catenin antagonist, ST316, selectively targets the Wnt pathway, which drives more than 80% of CRCs. We are currently enrolling CRC patients in a Phase 2 Dose Expansion Study across lines of treatment in combination with standard of care.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) affects millions of Americans every year. With more than 80% of CRCs estimated to be driven by the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, Sapience Therapeutics, Inc. is proud to advance ST316 - a first-in-class Wnt/β-catenin inhibitor with selective targeting capabilities. We are currently enrolling CRC patients in a Phase 2 Dose Expansion Study across lines of treatment in combination with standard of care.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer death in the United States. In 2024, CRC is expected to cause more than 53,000 deaths. Sapience Therapeutics, Inc.’s first-in-class β-catenin antagonist, ST316, selectively targets the Wnt pathway, which drives more than 80% of CRCs. We are pleased to announce that we have begun enrolling CRC patients in a Phase 2 Dose Expansion Study across lines of treatment in combination with standard of care.

#BreakingNews: The first patient has been enrolled in our Phase 2 expansion study evaluating ST316, our first-in-class antagonist of β-catenin (NCT05848739). ST316 selectively shuts down the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in tumor cells but not in normal cells, allowing for anti-cancer activity without the toxicity related to broad inhibition of this pathway. The Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is one of the most active pathways in several cancers and drives more than 80% of colorectal cancers – the first indication to be assessed in our Phase 2 expansion study.
