Corvus Highlights Soquelitinib's Potential in Immune Disease Treatment
"We started the year with strong momentum for soquelitinib, our selective ITK inhibitor that we believe is well positioned to improve therapy for a broad range of patients with atopic dermatitis, other immune diseases and cancers," said Richard A. Miller, co-founder, president and chief executive officer of Corvus. "The data generated from our clinical and preclinical work support soquelitinib's potential to provide a new treatment paradigm for these diseases based on a rebalancing of the immune system. We will share additional data supporting this mechanism at the upcoming annual meeting of the Society for Investigative Dermatology, where we are reviewing data from our Phase 1 atopic dermatitis trial in two oral presentations. Looking forward, we are focused on our ongoing and planned soquelitinib clinical trials, including the initiation of new Phase 2 studies in hidradenitis suppurativa and asthma anticipated later this year."
