    SAN FRANCISCO, March 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FibroGen, Inc. (NASDAQ:FGEN) today announced the appointment of Deyaa Adib, M.D., an executive leader with almost three decades of oncology development experience, as Senior Vice President & Chief Medical Officer to oversee all global clinical development activities. The appointment is effective March 11, 2024.

    "Deyaa's leadership and expertise in oncology research and clinical development, particularly in bringing oncology therapeutics to market, will be key to accelerating our oncology pipeline and bringing novel cancer therapies to patients in need," said Thane Wettig, Chief Executive Officer of FibroGen. "We are excited to welcome him to FibroGen during this critical time as we prepare for two pivotal read-outs for pamrevlumab in pancreatic cancer, advance Phase 2 planning for FG-3246 in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, file an IND for our anti-Galectin-9 antibody and continue IND-enabling work for our anti-CCR8 antibody," he added. "We will benefit immensely from Deyaa's broad and deep experience in oncology drug development, including his experiences in both pancreatic and prostate cancers."

    "I am excited to join FibroGen and lead the clinical development organization at this important time for our company," commented Deyaa Adib, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of FibroGen. "I look forward to working with such a highly talented and deeply experienced group of colleagues as we progress our oncology pipeline with the goal to bring valuable medicines to cancer patients with significant unmet medical need." 

    Dr. Adib, a seasoned industry leader, has over 27 years of medical oncology experience in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, including seven successful registrations across solid tumor and hematologic malignancy indications. Prior to joining FibroGen, he was the Chief Medical Officer of Triumvira Immunologics Inc. where he led the transition of two novel cell therapy programs into clinical development. He previously served as Acting Chief Medical Officer at Rain Therapeutics, and as Vice President of late-stage development at Blueprint Medicines, where he led the development of avapritinib which is currently approved for gastrointestinal stromal tumors and advanced systemic mastocytosis. Dr. Adib also served as Global Therapeutics Head for solid tumors at Baxalta, in-licensing and advancing the development of nanoliposomal irinotecan that was subsequently approved globally for pancreatic cancer, establishing a new standard of care in the second line metastatic setting. He also served as Head of Hematologic Malignancies at ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, leading the global clinical program for ponatinib in chronic myeloid leukemia.

    Earlier in his career, Dr. Adib held multiple oncology clinical development leadership positions at Aventis, Sanofi and Astellas Pharma, advancing the development of Taxotere in prostate cancer, breast cancer and gastric cancer, oxaliplatin in colorectal cancer and notably enzalutamide, which led to a treatment paradigm shift in prostate cancer. He has served as a scientific advisory board member for multiple biotech companies and provided strategic consulting support to several cell therapy startups.

    Dr. Adib obtained an M.B., B.Ch. degree from Cairo University School of Medicine in Cairo, Egypt. He completed his postgraduate medical oncology training at the Anglo-American Cancer Institute in Cairo and additionally at Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, MA, in clinical pharmacology, drug development and regulation.
