Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a development-stage biopharmaceutical company, engages in the development and commercialization of mechanism-targeted drugs to treat human cancers and other serious diseases. The company's oncology development programs include its lead candidate, sapacitabine, which is in Phase III study that interferes with DNA synthesis and repair by causing single-strand DNA breaks that could induce arrest of the cell division cycle at the G2/M checkpoint; and second drug candidate, seliciclib, which is an orally-available CDK inhibitor that selectively inhibits a spectrum of enzyme targets, including CDK2/E, CDK2/A, CDK7, and CDK9 that are central to the process of cell division and cell cycle control. Its oncology development programs also comprise Plk1 Inhibitors, which is in preclinical stage for the treatment of cancer; CYC065, an orally-available 2nd generation inhibitor of CDK-2, -5, and -9 that helps in cancer cell growth, metastatic spread, and DNA damage repair; and Sapacitabine + Seliciclib, which is in Phase I trial for the treatment of cancer. The company's non-oncology programs include Cell Cycle Inhibitors, which completed Phase I trial for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was founded in 1992 and is headquartered in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey.
