Crinetics to Highlight Broad Pipeline at ENDO 2023

SAN DIEGO, June 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crinetics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRNX) today announced upcoming presentations that will highlight the company’s pipeline at ENDO 2023, the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting, which is being held June 15-18, 2023 in Chicago, Illinois.

Two presentations will provide additional clinical evidence and patient-reported data for paltusotine, an experimental, once-daily, oral, small molecule somatostatin receptor type 2 (SST2) agonist in Phase 3 clinical development for the treatment of acromegaly. An upcoming oral presentation will review previously reported two-year data from the company’s ACROBAT Advance open-label extension study of paltusotine in acromegaly. The presentation will be delivered by Monica R. Gadelha, M.D., Ph.D., professor of endocrinology at the Medical School of the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro and a principal investigator in the Phase 2 ACROBAT program. In addition to the maintenance of IGF-1 levels in Advance study participants, Dr. Gahelha will present an analysis of symptom control and other patient-reported outcomes as assessed using the Acromegaly Symptom Diary.

In addition, Crinetics will highlight the results of in vivo studies from preclinical programs developing: (1) a parathyroid hormone receptor type 1 (PTH1R) antagonist for the treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism; and (2) a thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) antagonist for the treatment of Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder that can cause hyperthyroidism and the associated thyroid eye disease (orbitopathy).

Additional details on the presentations are shown below:

In addition, on June 15, 2023, the Endocrine Society’s president, Ursula B. Kaiser, M.D. will present R. Scott Struthers, Ph.D., founder and CEO of Crinetics, with the Society’s John D. Baxter Prize for Entrepreneurship for Dr. Struthers’ contributions to drug discovery and development in endocrine diseases. During the award session, Dr. Struthers will present a lecture titled, “Adventures Discovering Nonpeptide Oral Drugs Acting at Peptide Hormone Receptors.” The Baxter Prize was established in memory of Endocrine Society Past President John D. Baxter, M.D., a world-renowned scientist best known for being the first to clone the human growth hormone gene.

Commenting on the award, Dr. Struthers explained, “John Baxter, with one foot in his academic role and another in founding multiple companies, was an icon for the key role that entrepreneurship can play in advancing the field of endocrinology. At Crinetics, we share Dr. Baxter’s vision of harnessing the entrepreneurial spirit of world-class scientists and physicians to repeatedly discover, develop and deliver novel therapies for endocrine disorders with high unmet medical need. I would like to thank the Endocrine Society for awarding this prize, which is a testament to all of the groundbreaking work being done by the Crinetics team.”

The posters and oral presentations will be made available on the Crinetics website in accordance with the ENDO embargo policy. For attendees of ENDO 2023, Crinetics staff will be available to address questions and discuss pipeline programs at the company booth (#1623).
