- Phase 3 trial to evaluate apitegromab in patients with non-ambulatory Type 2 and Type 3 spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) anticipated to initiate by end of 2021
- DRAGON Phase 1 trial evaluating SRK-181’s ability to overcome resistance to checkpoint inhibitors continues to progress and on-track to advance to Part B dose expansion mid-year 2021
Scholar Rock (NASDAQ: SRRK), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the treatment of serious diseases in which protein growth factors play a fundamental role, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, and highlighted recent progress and upcoming milestones for its pipeline programs.
“Scholar Rock has had significant momentum in the first half of the year with further demonstration of apitegromab’s transformative potential to improve motor function for patients with SMA, as well as continued progression of dose escalation in the DRAGON trial evaluating SRK-181’s potential to overcome resistance to checkpoint inhibitors in solid tumors,” said Nagesh Mahanthappa, Ph.D., Interim CEO of Scholar Rock. “I look forward to working closely with this exceptional team as we continue to advance our research and clinical programs to further elucidate the potential of our scientific platform and help make a difference in the lives of patients suffering from serious diseases.”
Company Updates and Upcoming Milestones
Apitegromab is a selective inhibitor of myostatin activation being developed as the potential first muscle-directed therapy for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
SRK-181 is a selective inhibitor of latent TGFβ1 activation being developed with the aim of overcoming resistance to and increasing the number of patients who may benefit from checkpoint inhibitor therapy.
Second Quarter 2021 Financial Results
For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, net loss was $30.7 million or $0.84 per share compared to a net loss of $19.3 million or $0.65 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
“We are executing towards key milestones and continue to work closely with regulatory authorities to finalize the design of the Phase 3 trial for apitegromab and to progress the DRAGON trial to Part B to evaluate SRK-181 across multiple tumor types,” said Ted Myles, CFO and Head of Business Operations of Scholar Rock. “We ended the second quarter with approximately $282 million in cash and cash equivalents, which will allow us to achieve meaningful milestones as we continue to execute against our plan.”
About Scholar Rock
Scholar Rock is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of innovative medicines for the treatment of serious diseases in which signaling by protein growth factors plays a fundamental role. Scholar Rock is creating a pipeline of novel product candidates with the potential to transform the lives of patients suffering from a wide range of serious diseases, including neuromuscular disorders, cancer, and fibrosis. Scholar Rock’s approach to targeting the molecular mechanisms of growth factor activation enabled it to develop a proprietary platform for the discovery and development of monoclonal antibodies that locally and selectively target these signaling proteins at the cellular level. By developing product candidates that act in the disease microenvironment, the Company intends to avoid the historical challenges associated with inhibiting growth factors for therapeutic effect. Scholar Rock believes its focus on biologically validated growth factors may facilitate a more efficient development path.
