Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02064725 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03077698

Cridanimod (Virexxa) is a small-molecule immunomodulator and interferon inducer, which, in preliminary studies, has been shown to increase progesterone receptor expression in endometrial tissue. Restoration of progesterone receptor expression may re-sensitize endometrial tumor tissue to progestin therapy in previously unresponsive tumors. Cridanimod was originally developed by Polysan and Pharmsynthez and licensed to Xenetic Biosciences. Virexxa is currently being studied in an ongoing Phase 2 multi-national study in conjunction with progestin therapy for the treatment of endometrial cancer in women with the recurrent or persistent disease who have failed progestin monotherapy.
