CinFina Pharma, a CinRx portfolio company, is advancing a pipeline of high-impact monotherapies and combination treatments for people with obesity.
GLP-1’s have made significant progress to help patients with obesity achieve weight loss goals and improve associated comorbidities. The CinFina pipeline is designed to overcome limitations of current GLP-1 therapy and expand treatment options to enhance the tolerability, quality and durability of weight loss with a focus on body composition and preservation of lean body mass. Our portfolio includes:
CIN-109 is a Phase 2, growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15) analog developed as a monotherapy and co-administration agent for obesity. GDF-15 is a centrally acting member of the TGF-β superfamily. Through its interaction with the GFRAL receptor, GDF-15’s anti-obesity effects include a decrease of appetite and the maintenance of energy expenditure.
Phase 1 SAD & MAD studies have been completed. A Phase 2 study evaluating CIN-109 with and without semaglutide will be initiated in 2024.
CIN-110 is a long-acting PYY3-36 analog developed as a monotherapy and co-administration agent for obesity. PYY is a gut-derived peptide that selectively binds and activates the neuropeptide Y2 receptor (Y2R) centrally to reduce appetite while improving glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity.
The IND for CIN-110 has been cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and a single ascending dose study of CIN-110 is ongoing.
CIN-209 is a dual agonist consisting of a novel GLP-1 covalently linked with a GDF-15 analog. The combination of these two mechanisms of action will enhance the weight loss of the GLP-1, allow for better tolerability when the two drugs are given in lower doses and will improve the quality of weight loss by preserving lean mass.
Pre-clinical development to support an IND filing is ongoing.
CIN-210 is a dual-agonist consisting of a novel GLP-1 covalently linked with a PYY3-36 analog. The combination of these two mechanisms of action will provide a synergistic effect on weight loss and thereby can be used in lower doses to improve tolerability.
Pre-clinical development to support an IND filing is ongoing.
CinFina Pharma is a CinRx portfolio company. CinRx deploys a hub-and-spoke approach in advancing its portfolio of multiple biotechnology companies, each rapidly developing high-impact medicines for patients in need.
