About Aileron Therapeutics
Aileron is a clinical stage chemoprotection oncology company that aspires to make chemotherapy safer and thereby more effective to save more patients’ lives. ALRN-6924, our first-in-class MDM2/MDMX dual inhibitor, is designed to activate p53, which in turn upregulates p21, a known inhibitor of the cell replication cycle. ALRN-6924 is the only reported chemoprotective agent in clinical development to employ a biomarker strategy, in which we exclusively focus on treating patients with p53-mutated cancers. Our targeted strategy is designed to selectively protect multiple healthy cell types throughout the body from chemotherapy without protecting cancer cells. As a result, healthy cells are spared from chemotherapeutic destruction while chemotherapy continues to kill cancer cells. By reducing or eliminating multiple chemotherapy-induced side effects, ALRN-6924 may improve patients’ quality of life and help them better tolerate chemotherapy. Enhanced tolerability may result in fewer dose reductions or delays of chemotherapy and the potential for improved efficacy.

Our vision is to bring chemoprotection to all patients with p53-mutated cancers, which represent approximately 50% of cancer patients, regardless of type of cancer or chemotherapy. Visit us at aileronrx.com to learn more.

About ALRN

aileron is the clinical-stage leader in the field of stapled peptide therapeutics for cancers and other diseases. our lead product candidate, alrn-6924, which is being evaluated in multiple clinical trials, reactivates p53-mediated tumor suppression by targeting both of the primary p53 suppressor proteins mdmx and mdm2. the p53 protein, often referred to as the “guardian of the genome,” is known for its central role in preventing cancer initiation and progression, and its inactivation is essential for the formation of virtually all cancers. we believe that alrn-6924 is the first and only product candidate in clinical development that can inhibit both mdmx and mdm2, which we believe, based on published data and our preliminary clinical results, are equally important in restoring p53 function as the body’s first line of defense against cancer. based on preclinical data and preliminary evidence of safety and anti-tumor activity in our ongoing clinical trials, we believe there may be a sig
