About The Event
Join us for a virtual KOL event with Sol-Gel Technologies, featuring Julie Breneiser (Executive Director, Gorlin Syndrome Alliance) and Ervin Epstein Jr., MD (Co-Founder of PellePharm Inc.), who will discuss the significant disease burden of Gorlin syndrome patients and lack of effective therapies. Gorlin syndrome is a rare genetic disorder associated with growth of multiple basal cell carcinomas.
The event will also focus on the therapeutic potential of SGT-610 (patidegib gel), a new hedgehog inhibitor (HHI), in development to prevent new basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions in patients with Gorlin syndrome with the potential for a more favorable tolerability profile compared to approved oral HHIs. SGT-610 has been granted Orphan Drug Designation as well as Breakthrough Designation by the FDA.
Alon Seri-Levy, PhD (Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Sol-Gel Therapeutics) will provide an overview of the upcoming SGT-610 Phase 3 study, including strategies intended to optimize success of the study, and insights on market potential. A live question and answer session will follow the formal presentation.
