Prix Allarity Therapeutics Inc (ALLR)

Allarity Therapeutics, Inc. engages in the development of drugs for personalized treatment of cancer guided by its proprietary Drug Response Predictor (DRP) technology. The company is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts and currently employs 6 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2021-12-21. The company is focused on development of stenoparib, a PARP/tankyrase inhibitor for advanced ovarian cancer patients, using its DRP technology to develop a companion diagnostic that can be used to select those patients expected to derive clinical benefit from stenoparib. Its therapeutic candidate, stenoparib, is a dual inhibitor of the key DNA damage repair enzyme PARP, as well as Tankyrases, critical enzymes involved in the WNT signaling pathway commonly activated in many cancers. Inhibition of key DNA damage repair enzymes, such as PARP, has clinically demonstrated to be therapeutically beneficial in the treatment of cancers (ovarian cancers). The DRP method builds on the comparison of sensitive vs. resistant human cancer cell lines, including transcriptomic information from cell lines, combined with clinical tumor biology filters and prior clinical trial outcomes.
