SEATTLE, March 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- OnQuality Pharmaceuticals ("OnQuality"), a targeted oncology supportive therapy company developing innovative medications to address unmet needs in oncodermatology and oncogastroenterology (cancer therapy-induced side effects occurring in the skin and gastrointestinal tract) and to improve the quality of life for patients receiving anticancer medications, today announced it will present preclinical data for its two drug candidates, OQL025 and OQL06x, at the upcoming American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting. The conference will be held in Orlando, FL, April 14-19, 2023. EGFR inhibitorsEGFR inhibitors are a class of drugs commonly used in the treatment of various cancers, including lung and colorectal. However, EGFR inhibitorsEGFR inhibitors can lead to dose-limiting skin toxicities and/or diarrhea in some patients. The most common skin toxicity associated with EGFR inhibitorsEGFR inhibitors is acneiform rash, which frequently appears on the face, neck, upper chest, and back. The incidence ranges from 20% to over 90% among patients receiving these drugs. To address this significant unmet need, OnQuality is developing OQL025 and OQL06x. OQL025 is a novel topical cream, and OQL06x a gut-restricted JAK inhibitorJAK inhibitor. Presented By: Robert C. Tyler, Ph.D.
