Accutar Announces Achievement of Preclinical Development Milestone in Research Collaboration with Evommune on TLR7/8 Program

Nov 2, 2026

CRANBURY, N.J., Nov. 2, 2026 – Accutar Biotechnology, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on artificial intelligence (AI)-empowered drug discovery, today announced the achievement of a preclinical development milestone in its multi-year, multi-target research collaboration with Evommune, Inc. (NYSE: EVMN), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing innovative therapies that target key drivers of chronic inflammatory diseases. The strategic partnership is focused on discovering novel small molecule drug candidates for chronic inflammatory diseases.

The milestone was achieved in Evommune’s EVO646 program, which targets toll-like receptors 7 and 8 (TLR7/8), key drivers of innate immune activation in autoimmune diseases. EVO646 was designed using Accutar’s AI-empowered discovery platform, and Evommune plans to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial in the first half of 2027.

“We are excited to have reached this milestone in our research collaboration with Evommune, whose deep expertise in inflammatory diseases complements our AI-empowered drug discovery capabilities,” said Jie Fan, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Accutar Biotechnology. “This achievement underscores the value of integrating computational drug design with experimental validation to advance partnered programs. We look forward to building on this progress to develop differentiated therapies for patients with chronic inflammatory diseases.”

Under the research collaboration announced in November 2023, Accutar leverages its proprietary AI-driven discovery platform, which integrates machine learning with structural biology and experimental validation, to design and optimize novel therapeutic candidates. Evommune contributes its expertise in inflammatory disease biology and drug development.

Accutar is eligible to receive milestone payments and royalties on future sales of licensed products.
