A merger between Flamingo Therapeutics and Dynacure will create a new oncology company, retaining the Flamingo name, advancing lead candidates danvatirsen and FTX-001.

Flamingo’s current investors, Kurma Partners and PMV, have also made a further investment in the company at this time.

Flamingo is advancing danvatirsen into Phase II testing with the PEMDA-HN study in head and neck cancer, which will evaluate the antisense oligonucleotide in combination with the checkpoint blocker Keytruda (pembrolizumab).
