resTORbio RB101
The process is indeed related to the loss of proteostasis. Proteostasis refers to the regulation
of the proteins within a cell, which includes their synthesis, folding, and degradation2.
resTORbio, a US-based biopharmaceutical firm, is exploring the use of RTB101 for the
treatment of Parkinson’s disease. Here are the key details:
In clinical phase trials, RTB101 has been reported to cause respiratory problems in patients.
PRICING:
Because this drug is under clinical trials so, the pricing strategy is still unknown.
FUTURE PROSPECTS:
As for the prospects of RTB101, it's an oral mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR)
inhibitor that has been observed to increase IFN-induced antiviral gene expression and
decrease the incidence of respiratory tract infections (RTis) in older adults. However, the
clinical development of RTB101 in the prevention of clinically symptomatic respiratory
illness (CRI) was halted after its Phase III PROTECTOR 1 clinical trial failed to meet the
primary goal. Despite the current halt in production due to observed respiratory problems in
patients, the prospects of RTB101 seem promising. The company resTORbio intends to
develop RTB101, an orally administered, selective TORC1 inhibitor, for additional ageing-
related indications including heart failure or neurodegenerative diseases
