Alejandro Dorenbaum, CMO of Reneo Pharmaceuticals Discusses Clinical-Stage Therapies

Episode notes

In this episode we will be talking to Alejandro (Alex) Dorenbaum, M.D. , CMO of Reneo Pharmaceuticals . Alex discusses how the company is developing drugs for patients with #rare mitochondrial diseases, a high unmet disease with no current treatments available. Their lead candidate #Mavodelpar has recently completed enrolment for their pivotal STRIDE clinical trial. STRIDE is a global, randomized double-blind, 6 months, placebo-controlled trial designed to assess the efficacy and safety of Mavodelpar. Alex also discusses the importance of engaging early with #patients and patient organisations for #PMM across the world to truly understand the patient journey, their challenges & daily routines which help to shape the study design. This ensures successful enrolment and patient retention throughout the clinical trial, something Reneo have successfully completed throughout the development of Mavodelpar. By engaging early with patients, clinicians & regulators, they have completed enrolment in record time, this is especially difficult for #rarediseases as it is often difficult to find the patients and something Alex is extremely proud of.
