Odonate Therapeutics, Inc. Overview
Pro stress-test →Odonate Therapeutics was a San Diego-based pharmaceutical company focused on developing tesetaxel, an oral chemotherapy agent for cancer treatment. The company ceased operations in March 2021 after the FDA deemed its lead clinical data insufficient for approval.
