Encouraging reports showcase RGN6024's powerful response to deadliest brain cancer

This recognition shows our potential to address urgent needs of brain cancer patients. As we look at first-in-human studies, we're actively seeking partners to share our pledge to tackle brain cancer.”
— Richard Austin, Ph.D., MBA, CEO
HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, August 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Reglagene, Inc., a biotechnology company developing novel therapeutics for cancer, has received notable recognition from two prestigious medical publications for its pioneering RGN6024 treatment for glioblastoma.

The August 2025 edition of Molecular Cancer Therapeutics (MCT), a highly respected journal published by the American Association for Cancer Research, released the first peer-reviewed report on Reglagene’s lead compound, RGN6024. The article was featured as both the cover story and the highlighted entry in the journal’s “First Disclosure” section — an honor that showcases promising first reports of new agents with clinical development potential.

RGN6024 is a brain-penetrant colchicine-site tubulin destabilizer that has demonstrated robust blood-brain barrier penetration and tumor-killing activity in therapy-resistant models of glioblastoma, the deadliest brain cancer.

Prior to the MCT publication, a pre-release version of the study caught the attention of Drug Hunter, which selected RGN6024 as one of its May 2025 “Molecules of the Month.” The recognition placed Reglagene alongside other breakthrough compounds from leading pharmaceutical innovators, such as Bristol Myers Squibb, Novartis, Bicycle Therapeutics, and Zentalis Pharmaceuticals.

“Molecular Cancer Therapeutics is one of the most respected journals in oncology research, and Drug Hunter is an influential voice in the biopharma community,” said Richard Austin, Ph.D., MBA, CEO of Reglagene. “Having our work recognized by both publications underscores the potential of RGN6024 to address the urgent, unmet needs of brain cancer patients. We’re excited to bring RGN6024 into first-in-human studies and are actively seeking partners who share our commitment to tackling brain cancer.”

Molecular Cancer Therapeutics focuses on translational research in oncology, publishing only studies that demonstrate rigorous scientific merit, novel therapeutic approaches, and potential to advance cancer treatment. The selection of RGN6024 reflects the compound’s strong preclinical profile, including evidence of blood-brain barrier penetration, target engagement, and anti-tumor activity in glioblastoma models.
