The presentation will include a suite of preclinical data highlighting the biological role of GPR35 in GI disease and cancers, outlining the hypothesis that GPR35 activity has the potential to drive pro-oncogenic growth biology in digestive tract cancers, and spotlighting the company's discovery of potent GPR35 inhibitors that demonstrate the ability to prevent GPR35 signaling and tumour growth in a patient-derived cancer model. The AACR conference is being held April 14-19, 2023, in Orlando, Florida.

  • This includes research showing that GPR35 variants are linked to irritable bowel disease, and that GPR35 expression is upregulated in GI cancers.
  • Furthermore, study results have demonstrated that commonly dysregulated GI-cancer genes can be reversed by knocking out GPR35 in cancer cells.
