eFFECTOR Therapeutics to Collaborate with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute on Ph 2 Trial of Zotatifin Combo in ER+ Endometrial Cancer and in Low Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer

Doug Warner, M.D., chief medical officer of eFFECTOR Therapeutics added, “We are thrilled to embark on this investigator-sponsored Phase 2 trial in collaboration with Dr. Konstantinopoulos and his team at the DFCI. This trial represents a significant step forward in our collective efforts to address the complexities of endometrial cancer and low grade serous ovarian cancer. By exploring the potential of zotatifin as a combination treatment and its unique mechanism of action, we aim to redefine the treatment landscape and improve outcomes for these patients. With this comprehensive approach which simultaneously targets tumor cell cycle progression while reducing estrogen levels, we hope to overcome resistance mechanisms and enhance treatment efficacy which we believe could be applied in various malignancies beyond breast and endometrial cancers. In parallel, we continue to advance development of zotatifin in ER+ metastatic breast cancer and anticipate determination of the Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of zotatifin in combination with fulvestrant and abemaciclib, in the second half of 2024.”
