First Patient Dosed in TARGET-D 201 Ph 2 Registration-Directed Trial of VS-7375 for KRAS G12D-Mutated Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
“Dosing the first patient in the TARGET-D 201 trial marks an important milestone in the development of VS-7375 for patients with KRAS G12D-mutated metastatic pancreatic cancer, where unmet need remains high,” said Michael Kauffman, M.D., Ph.D., president of development at Verastem Oncology. “We believe VS-7375 has a differentiated profile, including potent KRAS G12D target inhibition and sustained target coverage, supporting its potential to play a significant role in treating multiple KRAS G12D-mutated tumor types. With three registration-directed Phase 2 clinical trials now underway across pancreatic, non-small cell lung, and colorectal cancers, and FDA Fast Track designations in pancreatic and non-small cell lung cancers, we are focused on accelerating development of VS-7375 as quickly as possible across multiple tumor types where no approved treatments exist.”
