We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing small molecules to improve the lives of patients with genetically defined rare diseases in areas of high unmet medical need. Our lead product candidate, pociredir, is an oral small molecule designed to induce fetal hemoglobin, or HbF, and is in clinical development for the treatment of sickle cell disease, or SCD. We completed dosing in the PIONEER trial, a Phase 1b clinical trial evaluating pociredir in adults with SCD. The PIONEER trial included 12 mg and 20 mg once-daily dose cohorts, and evaluated subjects over a 12-week treatment period. We have reported clinical data demonstrating clinically relevant HbF induction, including progression toward pan-cellular distribution, and improvements in markers of hemolysis and anemia. We are currently activating sites in an open-label extension trial to evaluate longer-term safety and pharmacodynamic, or PD, durability in patients who completed the PIONEER trial....
