"We are delighted to expand the funding syndicate with the addition of these top tier investors," said Iain Dukes M.A. D.Phil., co-founder and chief executive officer at Lomond Therapeutics."
This transaction provides the additional resources necessary to advance our potentially best-in-class or first-in-class programs, lomonitinib, lonitoclax and our menin inhibitor, through clinical development. Lomonitinib is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1b clinical trial in patients with mutated FLT3 relapsed refractory AML – an area of important unmet need. Lomond enrolls CLL and selected lymphoma patients in a Phase 1b clinical trial to evaluate lonitoclax, a potentially first in class oral targeted selective B-cell lymphoma-2 ("BCL-2-2") inhibitor.
