Initial patients dosed in multiple cohorts of Ph 1 dose-expansion study of KTX-1001, mezigdomide, and SoC combo in t(4;14) multiple myeloma

“We are excited to see the dose expansion cohorts open in the U.S. and EU and to see continued momentum for KTX-1001, an oral therapy we believe holds great promise to transform outcomes in multiple myeloma,” said Terry Connolly, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of K36. “Despite advances that have extended survival for people living with MM, this challenging blood cancer remains incurable, and most patients eventually relapse. There is an urgent need for therapies that are both effective and convenient, enabling patients to receive care in community settings while also maintaining quality of life. We are deeply grateful to the patients, investigators, and their care teams for their commitment to advancing this important research. The favorable tolerability profile of KTX-1001, together with promising early signs of clinical activity, underscores its potential as a first-in-class targeted therapy for patients with t(4;14) multiple myeloma, and our agreement with BMS enables us to further explore its potential benefit in novel combinations.”
