- MoonLake Immunotherapeutics nombra al exconsejero delegado de Kymab, Simon Sturge, como director general y a Spike Loy en la junta directiva

- Simon Sturge tiene un historial rico y exitoso de 40 años en la industria biotecnológica y farmacéutica, más recientemente como consejero delegado de Kymab.

- Spike Loy es director gerente de BVF Partners L.P., uno de los primeros inversores en MoonLake Immunotherapeutics AG

- Los nombramientos refuerzan a la compañía para impulsar el desarrollo de Sonelokimab, un Nanobody® Tri-específico potencialmente el mejor en su clase[1] para el tratamiento de múltiples enfermedades de la piel y articulaciones impulsadas por IL-17A y F

ZUG, Suiza, 10 de agosto de 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- MoonLake Immunotherapeutics AG, una empresa de biotecnología en etapa clínica centrada en la creación de terapias de nivel superior para enfermedades inflamatorias de la piel y las articulaciones, anunció hoy el nombramiento de Sturge como director general. Cuenta con 40 años de experiencia en liderazgo internacional en la industria biotecnológica y farmacéutica. Más recientemente, fue director ejecutivo de Kymab, una compañía biofarmacéutica en etapa clínica que desarrolla anticuerpos monoclonales completamente humanos con un enfoque en enfermedades inmunológicas e inmuno-oncología, y fue fundamental en su venta a Sanofi a principios de 2021. Anteriormente, Sturge fue director de operaciones de Merck Healthcare, una división de Merck KGaA. También ocupó cargos en Boehringer Ingelheim, Celltech Biologics y Ribotargets.

Simon Sturge comentó: "Estoy increíblemente emocionado de unirme a la junta directiva de MoonLake Immunotherapeutics, con la oportunidad de poner una nueva modalidad de tratamiento altamente innovadora a disposición de los pacientes que padecen una variedad de enfermedades inflamatorias debilitantes de la piel y las articulaciones. Es un privilegio apoyar a un equipo de liderazgo de primera clase de especialistas en inmunología en mi cargo de director general. Espero y tengo la intención de ayudar a guiar a MoonLake a través de un período de intensa actividad, aprovechando mi amplia experiencia en biotecnología y comprensión de lo que se necesita para llevar adelante con éxito un activo de inmunología".

MoonLake también anunció que Spike Loy, director gerente de BVF Partners L.P. ("BVF") ha sido nombrado miembro de la junta directiva. Loy ha sido miembro del equipo de inversiones de BVF desde 2009. Tiene una licenciatura en Biología Humana de la Universidad de Stanford y un JD de la Facultad de Derecho de Harvard.

Spike Loy comentó: "BVF es un inversor fundador en MoonLake Immunotherapeutics, y nuestro objetivo es ayudar a garantizar que Sonelokimab logre su máximo potencial en una variedad de enfermedades donde existe una necesidad sustancial de nuevas opciones de tratamiento. Estoy emocionado de apoyar al experto equipo de MoonLake en mi cargo de miembro de la junta e inversionista".

MoonLake Immunotherapeutics AG fue fundada en 2021, respaldada por una financiación Serie A liderada por BVF Partners L.P. Otros accionistas incluyen Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Alemania. La Compañía tiene la intención de acelerar el desarrollo clínico de Sonelokimab, un inhibidor de IL-17A/IL-17F en investigación, en varias enfermedades en las que la sobreexpresión de las citocinas IL-17A e IL-17F es un importante impulsor de la fisiopatología. Sonelokimab tiene un sitio de unión a la albúmina, que tiene el potencial de facilitar la penetración profunda del tejido en la piel y las articulaciones[2]. El grupo de enfermedades inflamatorias de IL-17A/F (AFID) incluye artritis psoriásica, espondiloartritis axial radiográfica (espondilitis anquilosante) e hidradenitis supurativa, afecciones que afectan a un gran número de pacientes en todo el mundo con una gran necesidad de mejorar las opciones de tratamiento. Se espera que pronto se lancen múltiples ensayos de Fase 2.
