Data Highlighting Clinical Efficacy & Molecular Mechanisms of Response to ONC201 Treatment of H3 K27M-Mutant Diffuse Midline Gliomas Published in “Cancer Discovery”
“The survival analyses published today in Cancer Discovery reported that ONC201 frontline treatment, administered post radiation therapy, demonstrated a statistically significant increase in mOS from diagnosis versus historical controls (21.7 months mOS vs. 12 months mOS, p<0.0001). These data are particularly relevant given that enrollment in the ongoing ACTION study occurs in a similar population. Additionally, these data further elucidate the underlying novel mechanism of action for ONC201 in a patient population which has very limited treatment options,” said Mike Andriole, Chief Executive Officer of Chimerix. “While these results require validation in prospectively designed studies, such as the Phase 3 ACTION study, they nevertheless provide ongoing confidence and rationale for ONC201’s monotherapy treatment effect and offer hope to the patients, families and caregivers facing this challenging and life-threatening cancer.”

“These data underscore gotistobart’s potential to redefine treatment for patients with hard-to-treat squamous NSCLC whose disease has progressed after initial therapy and who face limited options,” said Prof. Özlem Türeci, M.D., Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer at BioNTech. “In second- and later lines of treatment, the clinical relevance of novel
“The collaboration with Ratio represents an exciting opportunity to explore the potential of novel radiopharmaceutical approaches designed to address the complexity and heterogeneity of cancer,” said Ben Hickey, President of RayzeBio. “The combination of our respective technologies and complementary development expertise creates a strong foundation for generating a novel differentiated
“We believe these results mark a potentially important step forward in the treatment of EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer,” said Fabio Benedetti, MD, Global Chief Medical Officer, Taiho Pharmaceutical. “To address the unmet medical needs of patients and their families, we will continue working closely with
“Recent clinical data validated KAT6 as a targetable mechanism in the treatment of HR+/HER2- breast cancer, including those with actionable mutations,” stated Charles Morris, MBChB, MRCP, Chief Medical Officer of Prelude. “Dual KAT6A/B inhibitors, however, demonstrated overlapping toxicities with current backbone therapies that may limit the utility in earlier lines
