Race Oncology Limited has discovered several new potential candidates for FTO inhibitors

Nov 21, 2024

Race Oncology Limited (ASX: RAC) reached a remarkable milestone in its research journey by completing an FTO-targeted drug discovery program at Monash University’s Fragment Platform. Through state-of-the-art NMR fragment-based screening, the company has successfully identified 39 promising molecular candidates—hits—targeting the m6A RNA demethylase protein, FTO. These validated FTO-binding chemical scaffolds not only lay a strong foundation for innovative and patentable drug development but also hold the potential to transform treatments targeting the m6A RNA epigenetic pathway.

Confirming these compounds’ structures for developing cutting-edge FTO-targeting therapies represents a significant advancement in the field. This progress paves the way for creating valuable new intellectual property, opening opportunities for novel drugs that could change the treatment landscape for disorders linked to the m6A RNA epigenetic pathway.
