ESSA Pharma and Janssen to evaluate EPI-7386 in combination with apalutamide and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in patients with prostate cancer
“We are pleased to have this agreement in place in order to further investigate EPI-7386 in combination with apalutamide and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone in a variety of prostate cancer patient populations,” said David R. Parkinson, President and Chief Executive Officer of ESSA. “Preliminary clinical data from EPI-7386 combination studies with standard-of-care antiandrogens in mCRPC patients have shown a favorable safety profile and encouraging early signs of anti-tumor activity. We look forward to examining EPI-7386 with apalutamide and abiraterone acetate with prednisone in additional prostate cancer populations to assess the safety, tolerability, optimal dose(s) and preliminary anti-tumor activities of these approaches.”
