Leveraging Cancer Biology for Therapeutic Innovation: Clinical and Discovery Advances at Ryvu
Ryvu Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing a broad and differentiated oncology portfolio designed to address high-unmet medical needs by targeting key mechanisms in cancer biology, from dysregulated kinases to synthetic lethality and precision medicine platforms. Our pipeline comprises both innovative clinical candidates and discovery programs that exemplify novel approaches to treating challenging malignancies.
At the forefront of our clinical efforts is romaciclib (RVU120), a first-in-class, orally bioavailable selective CDK8/CDK19 inhibitor that modulates transcriptional programs driving cancer cell survival. Romaciclib is being evaluated across multiple Phase II studies, with focus on relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelofibrosis, where encouraging signals of activity and a good safety profile have been observed. Other clinical studies are investigating romaciclib in lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes and pediatric medulloblastoma.
In parallel, dapolsertib (MEN1703/SEL24), a dual PIM/FLT3 kinase inhibitor licensed to the Menarini Group, is progressing in Phase II development in diffuse large B‑cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Beyond these clinical assets, Ryvu’s ONCO Prime discovery platform supports the discovery of novel precision targets in CRC, TNBC and lung cancers. Separately, Ryvu is advancing ADC programs that incorporate innovative payloads, thereby broadening the range of potential future therapies.
Together, these programs reflect Ryvu’s commitment to advancing precision oncology by integrating deep biological insights with translational science, fostering collaborations that accelerate the delivery of impactful therapies for patients.
