The collaboration aims to develop an undisclosed initial therapeutic molecule that applies JCR’s proprietary J-Brain Cargo®, blood-brain barrier penetration technology, for the treatment of a neurodegenerative disease.
Under the termination, Takeda will discontinue their collaboration with JCR to develop gene therapies using adeno-associated viruses (AAV) combined with the JCR J-Brain Cargo® Technology.
JR-441 is a recombinant fusion protein of antibody fragment against the human transferrin receptor and heparan N- sulfatase, the enzyme missing or malfunctioning in subjects with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIA (MPS IIIA).
Modalis and JCR Pharmaceuticals aim to establish new gene therapies for undisclosed CNS diseases by applying J-Brain Cargo®, JCR Pharmaceuticals’ proprietary technology for crossing the blood-brain barrier, and CRISPR-GNDM®, Modalis proprietary epigenome modulation technology.
JR-441 is a recombinant fusion protein of antibody fragment against the human transferrin receptor and heparan N- sulfatase, the enzyme missing or malfunctioning in subjects with MPS IIIA.
JR-171 (lepunafusp alfa) is a recombinant fusion protein of an antibody against the human transferrin receptor and α-L-iduronidase, the enzyme that is missing or malfunctioning in subjects with MPS I.
Under the agreement, the two companies will begin research and development of new treatments using the J-Brain Cargo®, blood-brain barrier (“BBB”) penetration technology, in combination with an undisclosed effector molecule for the treatment of a neurodegenerative disease.
The agreement includes the marketing alliance for JR-051 (agalsidase beta BS), a biosimilar of Fabrazyme, a therapeutic enzyme, being sold by JCR for the treatment of Fabry disease.
JR-141 is the first-ever approved enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in Japan that penetrates the BBB via intravenous administration for the treatment of MPS II. JR-141 is expected to treat not only the systemic symptoms but also the neuronopathic manifestations of MPS II.
