BMS-986419: Safe and well-tolerated in Phase 1 SAD/MAD
study potential opportunity as monotherapy or combinations
•
Stressed cells that develop a chronically activated
ISR accumulate misfolded proteins that impair cell
functions and can lead to cell death
The elF2 complex is an ISR "master regulator" that
becomes dysfunctional in chronic disease
BMS-986419 binds to a subunit in the eIF2 complex
(elF2B) restoring normal ISR function, protein
clearance and cellular homeostasis
Phase 2 study in ALS initiating in 2024
ALS: Rapidly progressing & fatal neurodegenerative
disease caused by death of motor neurons:

•
Survival is typically only 2-5 years from symptom
onset³
