CRANBURY, N.J. & SHANGHAI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Accutar Biotechnology, Inc., a clinical stage biotechnology company focusing on artificial intelligence (AI)-empowered drug discovery, announces the dosing of the first patient in China in a Phase 1 study of AC0176, an orally bioavailable chimeric degrader molecule designed to target Androgen Receptor (AR) protein with high potency and selectivity.
“The initiation of this study marks the second program from our chimeric degrader portfolio to enter the clinic in China, after the initiation of AC0176 Phase 1 study in the US and the IND clearance by the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) last year,” said Jie Fan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Accutar Biotechnology, Inc. “Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men in China, and the increase in its incidence and death ranks highest in China. We look forward to accelerating the development of AC0176 globally to bring transformative medicines to patients worldwide.”
The Phase 1 study in China will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of AC0176 treatment in Chinese patients with metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC). Additional information on this clinical trial can be found on www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05673109).
About AC0176
AC0176 is an investigational orally bioavailable, chimeric degrader of androgen receptor (AR) for the potential treatment of prostate cancers. AR is a hormonal transcription factor, and plays important roles during prostate cancer onset and progression. In preclinical studies, AC0176 has demonstrated potent and selective AR protein degradation with broad coverage of AR mutants, favorable pharmacological properties, as well as promising anti-tumor activities in animal models.
