ART4215 is the first selective, oral, small molecule inhibitor of the Pol polymerase domain to enter the clinic.
- ART4215 is the first selective, oral, small molecule inhibitor of the Pol polymerase domain to enter the clinic.
- Extensive preclinical studies have demonstrated that ART4215 has broad potential clinical utility, as described in Artios recent Nature Communications publication, Zatreanu et al., 2021.
- The Pol project was originally in-licensed from Cancer Research Technology (now Cancer Research Horizons) in 2016 as part of the initial formation of Artios.
- A recommended Phase 2 dose has been established for ART4215 in combination with talazoparib, and a randomized expansion cohort has been initiated to evaluate the combination in patients with BRCA deficient breast cancer.
