Geron Corporation operates in the biopharmaceutical sector with a focus on transforming the treatment landscape for blood cancer patients. The company is known for its innovative approach in targeting telomerase activity. One of its groundbreaking products, RYTELO™ (imetelstat), is a telomerase inhibitor that has received FDA approval for treating adult patients suffering from lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who are dependent on transfusions.
The company is also advancing its research and development efforts through a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of imetelstat aimed at patients with myelofibrosis (MF) who have not responded to JAK inhibitors or have relapsed. Additionally, Geron is exploring the potential of imetelstat in treating other hematologic malignancies. The mechanism behind imetelstat involves inhibiting telomerase activity, which is known to be elevated in malignant stem and progenitor cells within the bone marrow. By targeting this activity, imetelstat aims to reduce the proliferation of these malignant cells and induce their death, offering a potential therapeutic pathway for patients with these challenging conditions.
