Corporate presentation summary
3 Mar, 2026Strategic focus and pipeline overview
Portfolio targets heme and iron pathways to address a spectrum of hematologic diseases, from rare to widely prevalent conditions.
Lead programs include bitopertin (GlyT1 inhibitor), DISC-0974 (anti-HJV mAb), and DISC-3405 (anti-TMPRSS6 mAb), each with distinct mechanisms and clinical targets.
Programs are advancing through various clinical stages, with bitopertin in Phase 3, DISC-0974 in Phase 2, and DISC-3405 entering Phase 2.
Bitopertin clinical development and results
Bitopertin demonstrated significant reductions in PPIX, improved sunlight tolerance, and reduced phototoxic reactions in EPP and XLP patients across multiple trials (AURORA, BEACON, HELIOS).
Long-term data show sustained efficacy and safety, with over 80% of patients rolling over to extension studies.
APOLLO Phase 3 trial is closing enrollment in March 2026, with topline data expected in Q4 2026.
Planning for FDA resubmission following a complete response letter, with a potential decision by mid-2027.
DISC-0974 clinical progress and opportunity
DISC-0974 targets hepcidin suppression to increase iron availability, addressing anemia in myelofibrosis (MF) and inflammatory diseases.
Phase 2 RALLY-MF data show positive, durable benefits on hemoglobin and transfusion burden, with response rates above 60% across cohorts.
Efficacy observed regardless of JAK inhibitor use, supporting broad applicability in MF.
Safety profile is consistent with selective target biology, with no early withdrawals due to adverse events.
Phase 2 trial in IBD anemia initiated in Q1 2026; topline MF data expected H2 2026.
