Full Press Release Details
BOSTON, Nov. 9, 2023 — Odyssey Therapeutics, Inc. , a biotechnology company pioneering next-generation precision immunomodulators and oncology medicines, will present data highlighting three of its immunology programs at the American College of Rheumatology ( ACR ) Convergence 2023 meeting in San Diego, California, November 10-15, 2023.
Odyssey’s oral and poster presentations will unveil the first public data for three novel therapeutic approaches to treat large populations with underserved inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The receptor interacting protein kinase 2 (RIPK2) and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) scaffolding inhibitors, as well as tumor necrosis factor receptor-2 (TNFR2) agonist for regulatory T (Treg) cell modulation, represent targets and approaches of high interest in the pharmaceutical industry, given their broad potential to treat inflammatory disease.
“ Odyssey’s team of expert drug hunters are tirelessly working to pioneer groundbreaking therapeutic strategies for the management of autoimmune disease,” said Gary D. Glick, Ph.D., founder and CEO of Odyssey Therapeutics. “At ACR, we’ll give patients, researchers and investors the first look at our RIPK2 and IRAK4 scaffolding inhibitors, as well as TNFR2 agonist for Treg cell modulation. These therapies can offer transformative benefits for patients, and the findings shared at ACR reflect significant scientific progress and achievement by our team to understand and solve complex biology with small molecule and protein therapeutics.”
