It discovers and develops small molecule drugs for treating fibrotic disease, cancer, and the emerging area of cancer-associated fibrosis in the areas of unmet medical needs. The company also develops zelasudil (RXC007), a selective rho associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2 (ROCK2) inhibitor, which is in Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of multiple interstitial lung diseases and cancer-associated fibrosis; RXC008, a potential first-in-class GI-targeted ROCK inhibitor that is in preclinical studies for the treatment of fibrostenotic Crohn's disease; and zamaporvint (RXC004), a porcupine inhibitor that is in Phase 2 clinical trial for targeted therapy of Wnt-ligand dependent cancers. In addition, it is developing RXC009, a potent and selective DDR1 inhibitor, which is in preclinical studies for the treatment of chronic kidney disease; Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS) inhibitor to target G12D selective and multi-KRAS profiles; RXC006/AZD5055 a porcupine inhibitor, which is in Phase 1 clinical trial for targeting fibrotic diseases, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; JZP815, a pan-rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma inhibitor that is in Phase 1 clinical trial to overcome resistance mechanisms associated with clinically approved B-RAF selective drugs; and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway targets for oncology indications. The company has research collaboration agreements with Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc to develop JZP815, as well as discovery and preclinical development of a targeted cancer therapy on the Ras/RAF/MAP kinase pathway; and AstraZeneca plc to develop RXC006/AZD5055, a Porcupine inhibitor for the treatment of fibrotic disease.
