Sareum Holdings (SAR): Treading the TYK2 trail Kinase inhibitor specialist Sareum develops small molecule therapeutics with application in oncology and autoimmune disease areas. Lead asset SDC-1801 targets the autoimmune space and is nearing an inflection point, with a planned clinical trial application (CTA) filing in mid-2021 and clinical progression in Q421. The other candidate, SDC-1802, is focused on cancer and holds first-in-class promise with value to be unlocked with clinical validation. The out-licensed assets, SRA737 and FLT3+Aurora kinase, are currently de-prioritised but offer upside potential on revived activity.
The autoimmune space is highly competitive (dominated by big pharma) and while PS will be the likely focus for SDC-1801's Phase Ia clinical study (easiest to recruit; potential c $40bn market, albeit a very crowded one), we expect Sareum to get better mileage from prospecting other, less explored, autoimmune conditions such as lupus ($1.9bn market but less crowded) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD - $16bn market) where its dual action may offer greater therapeutic gains.
