CHARM Therapeutics raises $80M in Series B financing to advance development of menin inhibitor for AML
Gary D. Glick, Ph.D., Executive Chair CHARM Therapeutics, said: “Securing funding from such a high-quality investor syndicate is a strong validation of our approach to overcoming menin inhibitor resistance. Current menin inhibitors show promise in AML treatment but are fundamentally limited by the rapid emergence of resistance mutations that cause treatment failure.

This program represents a significant opportunity to transform outcomes for patients, and we look forward to initiating clinical development early next year.”
