The US FDA Places Clinical Hold on the Trials Assessing RAPT Therapeutics’ Zelnecirnon

Shots:

  • The US FDA has verbally informed a clinical hold on the P-IIa and P-IIb studies investigating zelnecirnon to treat asthma and atopic dermatitis, respectively, for which the company expects a formal letter
  • The clinical hold was placed because of the liver failure reported in a patient in the atopic dermatitis study due to unknown reasons but is expected to be related with zelnecirnon. Recruitment for the new trials and drug’s dosing in both the P-II studies has been stopped but does not affect the study of tivumecirnon (FLX475) in oncology
  • Additionally, the preclinical studies, two P-II studies and a previous P-Ia/Ib trial investigating zelnecirnon in patients (n=~350) did not show any signs of liver toxicity
