About Chimerix
Chimerix is a biopharmaceutical company developing medicines for patients facing deadly diseases that meaningfully improves and extends their lives. In June 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted approval of TEMBEXA for the treatment of smallpox as a medical countermeasure. The Company has two other advanced clinical-stage development programs, ONC201 and dociparstat sodium (DSTAT). ONC201 is currently in a registrational clinical program for recurrent H3 K27M-mutant glioma and the results from an efficacy analysis by blinded independent central review are expected in 2021. DSTAT is in development as a potential first-line therapy in acute myeloid leukemia.
