Read about breakthroughs, clinical advancements, and ongoing work to develop new medicines at Kymera.
Dermatology Times spoke with Jared Gollob, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Kymera Therapeutics, to discuss the role of IRAK4 expression and degradation in HS, as well as the potential of KT-474 in immuno-inflammatory diseases.
Nello gives updates on programs such as IRAK4, STAT6, TYK2, and STAT3, and describes learnings in protein degradation that Kymera has discovered since the last time BiotechTV visited the company one year ago.
As part of their series highlighting women in STEM, Drug Target Review spoke to Juliet Williams, Head of Research at Kymera. She discusses what inspired her early passion for science, the power of mentorship and what excites her most about the future of targeted protein degradation – and its potential to deliver results in previously undruggable conditions.
PharmaLeaders had the chance to discuss Kymera’s exciting progress with Founder, President and CEO, Nello Mainolfi, Ph.D.
The Boston Business Journal highlighted Kymera’s recent move to enable the expansion of our innovative R&D capabilities and support our growing team’s vibrant on-site presence as we work toward delivering life-changing medicines to patients.
CEO Nello Mainolfi talked to Scrip about Kymera’s pipeline expansion, which will prioritize oral targeted protein degraders in immunology, including two new assets moving into the clinic.
Looking to further expand the reach of protein degraders beyond cancer, Kymera Therapeutics revealed two new programs Thursday morning that it hopes will compete with some of the hottest immunology drugs on the market.
Through a pair of recent clinical milestones, Kymera Therapeutics continues to cash in on its up-to-$2 billion collaboration with Sanofi to develop first-in-class targeted protein degradation (TPD) therapies for patients with immune-inflammatory diseases.
Once cast off by most pharmas and investors, dermatology drug development is experiencing a renaissance. A standout commercial success has put atopic dermatitis on the map. Each new psoriasis therapy is extending efficacy. And emerging drug classes are promising to expand the pool of responders, both within dermatology’s major indications and into new ones.
The kinase IRAK4 is a crucial regulator of signalling pathways that control innate immunity. Inhibitors of its kinase activity have been developed for autoimmune diseases but have not shown strong efficacy. Now, in Nature Medicine, Ackerman et al. describe an IRAK4 protein degrader and report encouraging preliminary results in patients with chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
