This work has delivered the first RNA methyltransferase inhibitor into the clinic. We will describe the discovery of METTL3 inhibitor STC15 and share emerging data from the phase one clinical trial.
These data provide the rationale for the development of STC-15 both as monotherapy and in combination with checkpoint inhibition for the treatment of solid tumour malignancies. A Phase I, First-in-Human clinical trial is planned to begin in 2022 Ethics Approval Animal welfare for this study complies with the UK Animals Scientific Procedures Act 1986 (ASPA) in line with Directive 2010/63/EU of the European Parliament and the Council of 22 September 2010 on the protection of animals used for scientific purposes.
