About Aileron Therapeutics
Aileron is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing stapled peptides, a novel class of therapeutics for cancers and other diseases. Stapled peptides are chemically stabilized alphahelical peptides that are modified to improve their stability and cell penetrability while maintaining high affinity for large protein surfaces. Our lead product candidate ALRN-6924, which is being evaluated in multiple clinical trials, is designed to reactivate p53-mediated tumor suppression by targeting both primary p53 suppressor proteins, MDMX and MDM2. The p53 protein is long known for its central role in preventing the initiation and progression of most solid and liquid tumors, and its inactivation is essential for the formation of virtually all cancers. We believe that ALRN-6924 is the first and only product candidate in clinical development that can inhibit both MDMX and MDM2, which we believe, based on published data and our preliminary clinical results, are equally important in restoring p53 function as the body’s first line of defense against cancer. Our goal is to use our stapled peptide drug platform to create first-in-class therapeutics, like ALRN-6924, that may be able to address historically undruggable targets and complex mechanisms that underlie many diseases with high unmet medical need.
