CR10049 (kinase inhibitor for the inflammatory OA phenotype)
CR10049 is a potent and long-acting OA-targeted multi-kinase inhibitor, preferentially targeting SRC family members, that plays a role in both OA pain (symptom-modifying) and inflammatory joint degeneration (structure-modifying). One such drug would be a major breakthrough in the treatment of the inflammatory OA phenotype.
