Products and Services
The innovative pipeline of Chimerix, Inc. includes a range of groundbreaking products in various stages of clinical trials, targeting a spectrum of deadly diseases:
- ONC201: This exceptional program is currently undergoing a Phase 3 clinical trial as a promising treatment option for patients with H3 K27M-mutant diffuse glioma, a rare and aggressive type of brain tumor. Additionally, ONC201 is in a Phase 2 trial aimed at combating rare neuroendocrine tumors. The hope vested in ONC201 stems from its potential to provide critical solutions to patients with few to no therapeutic options.
- ONC206: Identified as an imipridone, ONC206 combines the mechanism of being a Dopamine Receptor D2 (DRD2) antagonist and a caseinolytic protease P (ClpP) agonist. It is presently in Phase 1 clinical trials, focusing on adult and pediatric patients battling primary central nervous system tumors. ONC206 represents Chimerix's commitment to advancing cancer therapy through novel and multifaceted modalities.
- ONC212: As another member of the imipridone family, ONC212 uniquely functions as an agonist for the orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) tumor suppressor GPR132 and ClpP. The drug is targeted towards various oncology indications, embodying the company’s broader strategy to leverage GPCR-targeted therapies in cancer treatment.
- CMX521: Diverging from oncology, CMX521 signifies Chimerix's foray into antiviral therapy, specifically designed as a nucleoside analog to combat SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. This development reflects the company's adaptability and responsiveness to global health crises by expanding its research focus beyond cancer.
In its strategic endeavors, Chimerix has entered into a licensing agreement with SymBio Pharmaceuticals. This collaboration is geared towards the development and commercialization of TEMBEXA, excluding its use against orthopoxviruses, like smallpox, thus exemplifying Chimerix’s versatile approach to addressing a broad range of human diseases.
