OnKure Therapeutics has lined up $60 million in a new private funding round, adding to the Boulder, CO, biotech’s bank account as it works through a Phase II trial.
The startup is attempting to create an inhibitor of histone deacetylases, or HDACs, which are DNA-manipulating enzymes that alter how genes get expressed. They’ve been a cancer target for decades, with about half a dozen FDA approvals for the class, but treatment nods so far have focused on blood cancers. That includes the drugs Zolinza, Istodax, Beleodaq, Epidaza and Farydak.
