Description
NAMPT is a critical enzyme that regulates how cells use energy. It can also play an important role in the ability of cancer cells to survive, grow, and spread. While it’s been recognized as a potential target to treat certain cancers, developing NAMPT inhibitors have been challenging because they can disrupt energy metabolism in healthy cells. Remedy Plan Therapeutics believes it’s overcome the challenges of NAMPT inhibition by a unique mechanism of action that can avoid the problem of toxicity. We spoke to Greg Crimmins, founder and CEO of Remedy Plan Therapeutics, about the role of NAMPT in cancer, the challenges of developing NAMPT inhibitors without toxicity, and why he believes the company has solved the problem.
