GlycoMimetics, Inc. (GLYC) reported that Pfizer has made a $15 million payment to the companys under the terms of the parties’ collaboration for the development of rivipansel (GMI-1070).
Under the collaboration, Pfizer plans to initiate a Phase 3 clinical trial of rivipansel, which will trigger an additional $20 million milestone payment to GLYC upon the dosing of the first patient in the trial.
The companies are currently developing rivipansel as a potential treatment for vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) of sickle cell, one of the most prevalent genetic disorders in the U.S., affecting over 90,000 people.
The main clinical feature of sickle cell disease is periodic painful VOC episodes, known as VOC or pain crises, which result in significant clinical complications. Rivipansel is intended to treat VOC by inhibiting the cell activation and enhanced cell adhesion which causes the ischemia and pain.
GLYC is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of novel glycomimetic drugs to address unmet medical needs resulting from diseases in which carbohydrate biology plays a key role.
