Novartis has pulled the trigger on a multi-million-dollar deal, exercising its option to reel in another subsidiary of IFM Therapeutics focused on developing small-molecule STING antagonists.The acquisition announced Wednesday is the culmination of a collaboration between the two companies that began in 2019 when the Swiss drugmaker acquired IFM Therapeutics' IFM Tre unit and its portfolio of experimental drugs targeting the NLRP3 inflammasome for $310 million upfront. That deal also includes potential milestone payments worth nearly $1.3 billion.Meanwhile, Novartis also had its eye on the company's IFM Due subsidiary – the centrepiece of Wednesday's transaction – with a view to developing immunotherapies that inhibit the cGAS/STING pathway to treat inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Novartis gained the option to acquire IFM Due in return for covering R&D costs for the cGAS-STING programme.Another +$800M in milestonesNow that Novartis has exercised the option, which triggered an upfront payment of $90 million, IFM Therapeutics is eligible for up to $745 million in additional milestones. The company previously offloaded its STING agonist programme to Bristol Myers Squibb as part of a wider collaboration potentially worth up to $2.3 billion.The cGAS-STING pathway operates in the innate immune system, detecting cytosolic DNA as a signal of cellular danger and triggering an inflammatory response; its dysregulation is thought to be behind a variety of serious inflammation-driven diseases."We have been steadfast in our belief that selectively targeting STING to block the cGAS-STING pathway has the potential to deliver a powerful therapeutic option for patients with serious chronic illnesses," said H. Martin Seidel, chief executive at IFM Therapeutics.A previous foray by Novartis in the oncology space ended in defeat back in 2019 when the drugmaker axed an experimental STING pathway activator developed by Aduro Biotech from its portfolio.Meanwhile, other companies are exploring STING inhibitors as a means to control innate immunity and inflammation. In 2022, BioNTech signed a research and licensing deal centred on Ryvu Therapeutics' STING agonists to potentially boost the efficacy of cancer immunotherapies. That was followed shortly after with Merck KGaA teaming up with Mersana Therapeutics on immunostimulatory antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) using the latter's STING-agonist ADC platform.
