Welcome to our dedicated page for Kymera Therapeutics news (Ticker: KYMR), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Kymera Therapeutics stock.
Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KYMR) is a biotechnology company harnessing the power of targeted protein degradation (TPD) to develop transformative treatments for previously untreatable diseases. Founded in 2016, and headquartered in Watertown, Massachusetts, Kymera is at the forefront of biotechnology, utilizing the body's innate protein recycling machinery to degrade disease-causing proteins rather than merely inhibiting them.
The company's pioneering platform, Pegasus™, leverages proprietary predictive modeling and an integrated degradation approach to address disease targets previously deemed intractable. This novel modality allows Kymera to target and degrade proteins involved in various critical pathways, including those in immunological diseases and oncology. Key drugs in their pipeline include:
- KT-474: An IRAK4 degrader currently in Phase 2 trials for immuno-inflammatory conditions.
- KT-333: A STAT3 degrader in Phase 1 trials, targeting hematological malignancies and solid tumors.
- KT-253: An MDM2 degrader undergoing Phase 1 trials, aimed at cancers with p53 pathway involvement.
- KT-621: A STAT6 degrader poised to enter Phase 1 trials, showing promising preclinical results for treating TH2-driven diseases like asthma and atopic dermatitis.
Kymera's achievements include successful partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies such as Sanofi, ongoing collaborations with research institutions, and securing significant financial backing with over $745 million in cash reserves to support operations into 2027. The company's innovative approach and robust pipeline have earned it recognition as one of Boston’s top workplaces.
Kymera continues to make significant strides in drug discovery and development, with a focus on delivering highly effective, convenient oral therapies. Recent updates include positive preclinical and clinical data presentations at major medical conferences, highlighting the potential of their degradation technology to revolutionize treatment paradigms across various diseases.

Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR) has initiated dosing in a Phase 1 clinical trial for KT-621, the first-ever oral STAT6 degrader to enter clinical development. The trial evaluates safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in healthy volunteers through single and multiple ascending dose cohorts. KT-621 demonstrated dupilumab-like activity in preclinical models for treating TH2 immuno-inflammatory diseases, with potential as a convenient once-daily oral alternative to injectable treatments. Phase 1 data is expected in the first half of 2025.
Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on targeted protein degradation (TPD), has scheduled its third quarter 2024 financial results announcement for October 31, 2024. The company will host a conference call at 8:30 a.m. ET on the same day. Investors can join via phone at +1 (833) 630-2127 (US) or +1 (412) 317-1846 (International).

Kymera Therapeutics announced three poster presentations at the EORTC-NCI-AACR Symposium, showcasing new preclinical data from its targeted protein degradation (TPD) platform. The presentations focus on KT-253, the company's MDM2 degrader currently in Phase 1 clinical trials for solid tumors and hematological malignancies. Using machine learning, researchers identified tumor types sensitive to KT-253, including acute myeloid leukemia, neuroendocrine tumors, and specific solid tumors. Additional presentations highlight the company's platform capabilities in developing CDK2 degraders and the effectiveness of MDM2 degraders in Merkel cell carcinoma.
Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR) has announced FDA clearance of its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for KT-621, a first-in-class, oral STAT6 degrader. The company plans to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy volunteers in October 2024, with data expected in the first half of 2025.
KT-621 has shown dupilumab-like activity and was well-tolerated in preclinical models of TH2 diseases. The Phase 1 trial will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple ascending doses of KT-621 compared to placebo.
Kymera believes that KT-621 has the potential to combine the complete pathway blockade of upstream biologics with the convenience of oral administration, potentially transforming the treatment paradigm for atopic and allergic diseases.
Kymera Therapeutics (NASDAQ: KYMR) presented preclinical data for KT-621, a potent, selective, oral STAT6 degrader, at the EADV Congress. KT-621 shows potential to provide dupilumab-like activity with an oral small molecule profile for TH2 driven allergic and atopic diseases. The drug demonstrated strong degradation of STAT6 in human sensory neurons, inhibiting IL-13-induced itch- and pain-related gene transcripts, suggesting potential relief for atopic dermatitis symptoms.
Key highlights include:
- KT-621 expected to start Phase 1 in the second half of 2024, with data in the first half of 2025
- Preclinical studies show picomolar potency comparable or superior to dupilumab
