Schrödinger Presents New Preclinical Data on SGR-3515 and PRMT5-MTA Inhibitors at ENA 2024

Barcelona, Spain, October 23-25, 2024 – Schrödinger (NASDAQ: SDGR), a leader in computational drug discovery, has announced the presentation of new preclinical data at the 36th EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium (ENA 2024). The company will showcase its investigational Wee1/Myt1 inhibitor, SGR-3515, and advancements in its PRMT5-MTA inhibitor program, highlighting their potential in cancer treatment.

SGR-3515: A Promising Wee1/Myt1 Inhibitor

The presentation on SGR-3515 will provide insights into its differentiated pharmacological properties observed in preclinical oncology models. Wee1 and Myt1 kinases are crucial for regulating the cell cycle and DNA damage response, facilitating DNA repair before cell division. The inhibition of these kinases can induce synthetic lethality, selectively targeting cancer cells. Preclinical findings suggest SGR-3515 holds promise as a therapy for advanced solid tumors, with an ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial.

PRMT5-MTA Inhibitors: Targeting MTAP-deficient Tumors

Schrödinger will also present data on its selective PRMT5-MTA inhibitors, discovered through advanced virtual screening technology. This novel series of inhibitors is being optimized for treating both peripheral and brain tumors, particularly those deficient in MTAP.
