The company has decided to halt patient enrollment to focus on a follow-on trial aimed at accelerating stenoparib's path to regulatory approval. The trial's Principal Investigator, Kathleen N. Moore, MD, highlighted the need for continued development of next-generation PARP inhibitors like stenoparib. CEO Thomas Jensen emphasized the drug's favorable safety profile and its potential as a next-generation treatment option. The company plans to present detailed trial data at a high-level scientific conference, adhering to the common rules of such events. The PARP inhibitor market, which is expected to reach $22 billion by 2028, has seen significant interest in drugs with improved tolerability and safety profiles. Stenoparib, which also inhibits Tankyrase 1 and 2, is considered a differentiated therapeutic product due to its dual inhibitory activities and safety profile. Allarity Therapeutics uses its proprietary DRP® companion diagnostic to select patients likely to benefit from stenoparib, which has shown promise in increasing therapeutic benefit rates.
