By Allessandra DiCorato October 11, 2023 In 2011, Robert Manguso was working in a cell biology lab when his mother was diagnosed with Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare and aggressive skin cancer. The team found that deleting the gene Ptpn2 made tumors sensitive to PD-1 therapy, and they published their findings in Nature in 2017.

Enabling the systematic discovery of these largely uncharted targets can be a valuable opportunity for development of novel therapies. Genetic-based therapeutics hold significant promise in the clinic Despite the growing number of genes linked to human disease, the proportion of genes targeted by approved therapies remains low.

An AgencyIQ analysis from May 2020 found that a quarter of all New Molecular Entities (NMEs) approved since 2011 had relied upon a single pivotal trial, and that this reliance had remained relatively stable between 2011-2019 despite some year-to-year variability. When should this occur? at the end-of-phase 2 meeting).
