Corporate presentation summary
30 Jul, 2026Strategic focus and pipeline overview
Portfolio targets fundamental pathways in red blood cell biology, focusing on heme and iron metabolism to address a spectrum of hematologic diseases from rare to widely prevalent conditions.
Three lead investigational agents: bitopertin (GlyT1 inhibitor), DISC-0974 (anti-HJV mAb), and DISC-3405 (anti-TMPRSS6 mAb), each with distinct mechanisms and clinical targets.
Programs span multiple development stages, with bitopertin in Phase 3 for rare blood disorders, DISC-0974 in Phase 2 for anemia of chronic diseases, and DISC-3405 in Phase 2 for polycythemia vera and sickle cell disease.
Bitopertin clinical progress and market opportunity
Bitopertin demonstrated significant reductions in PPIX and improvements in sunlight tolerance and quality of life for EPP and XLP patients in Phase 2 and 3 trials.
APOLLO Phase 3 trial fully enrolled, topline data expected Q4 2026, with submission for CRL response planned by end of 2026.
Potential to be the first approved disease-modifying therapy for EPP, addressing a $2B+ US market.
Expanded Access Program launched for eligible patients in the US and select countries.
DISC-0974: Hepcidin suppression for anemia
DISC-0974 targets hepcidin to increase iron availability, showing proof-of-mechanism in healthy volunteers and proof-of-concept in myelofibrosis (MF) and IBD.
RALLY-MF Phase 2 data show durable hemoglobin increases and transfusion reduction across anemia severity, with efficacy regardless of JAK inhibitor use.
Safety profile consistent with target biology; most common adverse events were mild to moderate.
Positioned to address the full MF anemia market (~$4B US opportunity), with Phase 3 initiation expected in H1 2027.
