Plogosertib by Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals for Bile Duct Cancer (Cholangiocarcinoma): Likelihood of Approval

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Plogosertib overview

Plogosertib is under development for the treatment of solid tumors including triple negative breast cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, myelodysplastic syndrome and blood cancer including chronic lymphoblastic leukemia (CLL), relapsed/refractory acute myeloblastic leukemia, relapsed/refractory leukemias, small-cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, bladder cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, metastatic biliary tract cancer, diffuse large b-cell lymphoma, cutaneous t-cell lymphoma, peripheral t-cell lymphomas, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, gall bladder cancer and pancreatic cancer. It is a small molecule administered through oral and intravenous route. It acts by targeting polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1). Polo-like kinases play critical roles during multiple stages of cell cycle progression. Polo-like kinase (PLK) inhibitors targets the mitotic phase of the cell cycle. The drug candidate is based on genomic technology.

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in clinical development (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a combination of machine learning and a proprietary algorithm to process data points from various databases found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
