Lastly, we are developing DISC-3405, a monoclonal antibody against Transmembrane Serine Protease 6, or
TMPRSS6, that we licensed from Mabwell Therapeutics, Inc., or Mabwell. DISC-3405 is part of our iron homeostasis portfolio and is designed to induce hepcidin production and reduce serum iron levels. An IND for DISC-3405 was cleared by the FDA, and a
Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy adult volunteers was initiated in October 2023. Interim data was presented from the single-ascending dose (SAD) portion of the Phase 1 clinical trial of DISC-3405 in healthy volunteers in June 2024. We anticipate
presenting data from the multiple-ascending dose (MAD) portion of the Phase 1 healthy volunteer study of DISC-3405 in the fourth quarter of 2024. We expect to develop DISC-3405 for the treatment of PV and other hematologic disorders.
