  • Comment: Notable per references(did a few edits myself), thank you Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 17:36, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: It looks better than the last review, but I think there are still some issues with WP:NPOV, the lack of secondary sources and, most importantly, the lack of context overall... Oltrepier (talk) 21:25, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: Most refs are press-release or other publications by the company developing this chemical. WP:MEDRS is the relevant standard. The article itself sounds more like a press release than summarizing main ideas for encyclopedia readers, which is not an uncommon problem for writing by editors with COI (disclosed on their userpage but not here at article). All content will need to be checked for copyvio. DMacks (talk) 09:07, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Pimicotinib (ABSK021), an oral, highly potent and selective small molecule inhibitor of colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF-1R) independently discovered by Abbisko Therapeutics. A number of studies have shown that blocking the CSF-1R signaling pathway could effectively modulate and change macrophage functions, and potentially treat many macrophage-dependent human diseases.[1]

Medical uses

Pimicotinib is currently being investigated as a treatment for TGCT [2][3], chronic graft-versus-host-disease (cGVHD), and pancreatic cancer.

History

December 2023, Abbisko Therapeutics has entered into a licensing agreement for pimicotinib in all indications for China rights with Merck KGaA.[4] [5][6]

In April 2023, pimicotinib has entered into a global Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pimicotinib in patients with TGCT (NCT05804045).[7]

Following with pimicotinib for TGCT treatment in phase III, pimicotinib has also entered into a phase II trial in June 2023 for cGVHD treatment in China.[8]

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of NMPA granted pimicotinib breakthrough therapy designation (BTD) for the treatment of TGCT patients that are not amenable to surgery in January 2023 and July 2022, respectively.[9]
