Sagimet Biosciences starts U.S. Phase 3 trial for acne drug denifanstat, raising $115M to fund operations through 2029

Sagimet Biosciences has initiated its U.S. Phase 3 AURORA clinical trial for denifanstat, an oral acne treatment targeting moderate to severe cases, with topline data expected in late 2027. The company raised $115 million in October through an equity offering, boosting its cash reserves to approximately $356 million, which should fund operations through mid-2029, including potential NDA submission. Positive Phase 3 results from its Chinese partner Ascletis support the drug's efficacy and safety.
