Aegera initiates Phase 1 clinical trial of AEG33773 - A small molecule in development for diabetic neuropathic pain
Date:3/18/2008

s is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing drugs that control apoptosis to address major unmet medical needs. In addition to AEG33773, Aegera has three programs in clinical development for oncology indications:

- AEG35156 targets the key anti-apoptotic protein XIAP, and is currently

in multiple Phase II human clinical trials for the treatment of solid

tumors and leukemia;

- AEG41174 is a novel, non-ATP competitive, small molecule tyrosine

kinase inhibitor targeting therapeutically significant kinases

including JAK2 and Bcr-Abl, and is currently in Phase 1 clinical

studies;

- AEG40826 (HGS1029) is a small molecule IAP inhibitor that has shown

promising preclinical activity alone and in combination with other

anti-neoplastic agents across a broad range of cancers. A license and

collaboration agreement was executed in December 2007 whereby Human

Genome Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: HGSI) acquired exclusive rights to

develop and commercialize small-molecule IAP inhibitors in oncology.
