About AC-101
AC-101 is a novel, selective RIPK2 inhibitor being developed for the treatment of moderate-to-severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Receptor interacting protein kinase 2 (RIPK2) is a key mediator in the NOD signaling pathway, and dysregulation of NOD/RIPK2 is implicated in several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. AC-101 was developed from Accro Bioscience’s proprietary drug discovery platform targeting regulatory cell death and inflammation. AC-101 has completed Phase I studies in healthy volunteers in Australia and China, demonstrating a favorable safety and PK/PD profile. A Phase Ib/IIa proof-of-concept study in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe UC has been completed. The Company has received the IND clearance from U.S. FDA for a Phase II clinical trial.
