Elraglusib Demonstrated Anti-Tumor Activity with Two Ongoing Durable CRs and ~62% DCR in First 8 Patients with R/R Ewing and Ewing-related Sarcomas
“Ewing sarcoma is a highly metastatic form of sarcoma and the second most prevalent primary malignant tumor in children and adolescents. There are currently no standardized second-line treatments for r/r EWS and the prognosis for these patients remains poor. There is an urgent need for new therapeutic strategies that combine novel targeted therapies with new mechanisms of action and existing chemotherapy regimens of established but limited efficacy,” said Daniel Schmitt, President & Chief Executive Officer of Actuate. “Elraglusib is one of the few novel targeted agents being pursued for the refractory EWS population and continues to show promise as a viable therapeutic option. Early clinical data suggest that the enhanced antitumor activity of chemotherapy observed in multiple preclinical refractory cancer models is translating well into clinical responses.”
