- Bayer and Cedilla Therapeutics, a biotechnology company bringing a new dimension to precision oncology, today announced an exclusive license agreement to develop and commercialize Cedilla Therapeutics’ CyclinE1/CDK2 complex inhibitors which selectively address oncogenic drivers.
- Overexpression or genetic activation of Cyclin Dependent Kinase 2 (CDK2) binding partner cyclin E is a key oncogenic process in several cancers.
- Cedilla’s small molecules conditionally modulate the protein complex in its functional state resulting in highly selective inhibition.
- Cedilla will also be eligible to receive royalties on medicines based on their technology commercialized by Bayer.
