Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals by Sosei Heptares
PF-07081532 was discovered by Pfizer scientists during a multi-target research collaboration in which Pfizer had access to Sosei Heptares proprietary StaR® (stabilized receptor) technology. PF-07081532 has successfully completed Phase 1 clinical studies conducted by Pfizer.
This new agreement will leverage Sosei Heptares’ StaR® technology and structure-based drug design (SBDD) platform and Lilly’s extensive drug development and commercialization expertise as well as its therapeutic area expertise in diabetes and metabolic diseases.
Sosei Heptares and AbbVie entered into the discovery collaboration and option-to-license agreement to discover, develop and commercialize novel small molecule medicines that modulate GPCR targets of interest to AbbVie.
The focus of the agreements is to apply the innovative technologies and research capabilities of the respective academic groups to identify, validate and prioritize key GPCRs driving gastrointestinal and immune disorders, including IBD, as targets for SBDD.
NBI-1117568 is an investigational, oral, muscarinic M4 selective agonist. Muscarinic receptors are central to brain function and validated as drug targets in psychosis and cognitive disorders.
NBI-1117568 (previously known as HTL-0016878 ) is an oral, selective muscarinic M4 receptor agonist in development for the treatment of schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric disorders. Clinical studies completed to date have shown NBI-1117568 to be generally well tolerated.
New strategic collaboration of AbbVie leverages Sosei Heptares’ StaR® technology and SBDD platform to discover, develop and commercialize small molecules that modulate novel G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) targets associated with neurological disease.
The funding will be used to advance the pre-clinical development of the SH-879, Company’s novel oral anti-viral small molecules targeting the main protease of SARS-CoV-2 (Mpro), an enzyme critical to SARS-CoV-2 replication, as potential treatments for COVID-19.
Under the collaboration, companies will develop and commercialize novel muscarinic receptor agonists including HTL-0016878. Neurocrine Biosciences will gain access to Sosei Heptares’ portfolio of clinical and preclinical subtype-selective M1, M4, and dual receptor agonists.
The objective of the collaboration is to identify new therapeutic product concepts for immune diseases where an AI and ML based approach can be applied to generate compelling evidence for the role of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) in relevant immunomodulatory pathways.
