- Phase 3 pivotal trial evaluating apitegromab in patients with non-ambulatory Type 2 and Type 3 SMA on track to initiate by year-end 2021
- Update from Part A of the DRAGON Phase 1 trial evaluating SRK-181’s ability to overcome primary resistance to checkpoint inhibitors being presented at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 36th Annual Meeting
- Initiated Part B dose expansion portion of the DRAGON trial
- U.S. patent issued providing additional product protection for SRK-181 to May 2040
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 third quarter ended September 30, 2021, and highlighted recent progress and upcoming milestones for its pipeline programs.
“The DRAGON trial addresses two key questions; first, can the selectivity of SRK-181 for TGFβ1 increase the therapeutic window for inhibition of this signaling pathway thereby enabling higher doses safely, and second, does SRK-181 exhibit anti-tumor activity effective in overcoming resistance to checkpoint inhibitors in solid tumors. We are pleased with the results of Part A, as will be provided this week at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting, and we look forward to exploring the efficacy dimension of our therapeutic hypothesis in Part B,” said Nagesh Mahanthappa, Ph.D., Interim CEO of Scholar Rock. “Building on the momentum from the first half of this year, we are also excited about the progress with apitegromab and are on track to initiate by year-end the Phase 3 pivotal trial evaluating its efficacy in patients with non-ambulatory Type 2 and Type 3 spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).”
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 primary resistance to and increasing the number of patients who may benefit from checkpoint inhibitor therapy.
Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2021, net loss was $37.5 million or $1.02 per share compared to a net loss of $23.6 million or $0.79 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
“As we approach the end of 2021, I am incredibly proud of the execution by the entire Scholar Rock team this year. Not only have we initiated Part B of the DRAGON trial, but we’re also very close to initiating our Phase 3 pivotal trial for apitegromab,” said Ted Myles, CFO and Head of Business Operations of Scholar Rock. “We ended the third quarter with approximately $246 million in cash and cash equivalents and are well-funded to continue executing on our development programs while continuing to invest in our robust discovery platform.”
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.
