Glenmark Pharmaceuticals completes clinical Phase 1 studies for GBR 830

Its novel monoclonal antibody

Glenmark Pharmaceuticals announced that its subsidiary Glenmark Pharmaceuticals S.A. has completed clinical phase 1 dosing of its novel monoclonal antibody, GBR 830. GBR 830 is an antagonist of OX40, a costimulatory receptor expressed on T cells mediating T cell activation and survival.

Glenmark has now completed clinical Phase I studies for GBR 830 in the Netherlands. GBR 830 was well tolerated and its safety & pharmacokinetics profile in healthy volunteers fully support the transition into clinical Phase 2 studies. Preparations for initiating Phase 2 studies in both atopic dermatitis and celiac disease in the US and Europe are well advanced. Glenmark expects dosing to commence in the next few months. These are indications with an unmet medical need and in addition also offer the possibility to characterize the mode of action of GBR 830 in detail in these patient populations.
