AN2 Therapeutics Announces Extension of Funding for Tuberculosis Research Collaboration with GSK
AN2 Therapeutics announced an extension of Gates Foundation funding to support its tuberculosis research collaboration with GSK, focused on boron-based leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS) inhibitors.
The collaboration builds on AN2's boron chemistry platform, the same target family underlying epetraborole, ganfeborole, and the FDA-approved antifungal tavaborole.
No dollar amount was disclosed; the extension is a validation signal for the platform rather than a material pipeline or financial event.
