"In the third quarter, the team at Kezar continued its tradition of strong execution across our clinical and portfolio development plans," said John Fowler, Kezar’s Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer. "Supported by the results from the MISSION study, our conviction remains high that zetomipzomib has the potential to be a non-immunosuppressive, steroid-sparing treatment for patients with lupus and lupus nephritis. In addition, our recently announced development plan in autoimmune hepatitis underscores our belief that zetomipzomib can help patients across a diverse range of autoimmune diseases. In parallel, we are excited by progress in our protein secretion inhibition platform and look forward to our SITC poster presentation tomorrow on KZR-540, an oral small molecule that selectively blocks PD-1 expression."
