Abstract selected as TOP abstract for Congress Presentation
SEATTLE, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Seal Rock Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical stage company developing first-in-class and best-in-class kinase inhibitors, today announced that it will present preclinical data on SRT-015 for severe cholestatic disease during a poster presentation at the European Association for Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress 2024 being held June 5-8, 2024, in Milan, Italy.
SRT-015 is a highly optimized, second generation, liver-selective inhibitor of Apoptosis Signal-regulating Kinase 1 (ASK1). It is being developed by Seal Rock Therapeutics, in an oral formulation, as a treatment for MASH and other liver diseases.
"Our data demonstrate the ability of SRT-015 to significantly decrease fibrosis in a model of cholestatic disease with severe fibrosis, supporting its potential as a therapeutic treatment for cholestatic disease including pediatric orphan disease indications," said Neil McDonnell, CEO of Seal Rock Therapeutics. "Collectively with our previous MASH fibrotic efficacy studies, these data show that SRT-015 is a direct and potent antifibrotic in both non-metabolic and metabolic disease models."
