IDRx Announces $120 Million Series B Financing to Advance New Treatment for GIST
“We are thrilled to announce this financing, which includes support from a top-tier syndicate of investors and positions us to accelerate the development of IDRX-42 for a broad population of patients with GIST, including in the second-line and front-line settings, where patients haven’t seen a new treatment option in over 15 years,” said Tim Clackson, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of IDRx. “IDRX-42 was designed to overcome the twin challenges of on-target treatment resistance and off-target driven adverse events, which limit the clinical benefit of currently available TKIs. We are extremely encouraged by the clinical data generated with IDRX-42 to date and are focused on rapidly advancing this potential new treatment option that could elevate the standard of care for GIST patients.”
