FAILED TRIAL: Ph 3 LEAP-015 Trial of KEYTRUDA, LENVIMA, Chemo combo in Patients with HER2-neg Gastroesophageal Adenocarcinoma did not meet co-primary endpoint of OS
“Gastric and gastroesophageal cancers continue to present challenges due to their heterogeneity and generally poor prognoses,” said Dr. Corina Dutcus, Senior Vice President, Oncology Global Clinical Development Lead at Eisai Inc. “While the LEAP-015 trial did not show a statistically significant increase in overall survival, we were pleased to observe an improvement in progression-free survival and objective response rate for patients treated with KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA in combination with chemotherapy. These results contribute to the scientific community’s collective understanding of these complex diseases and add to the body of knowledge in oncology research. We are deeply grateful to the patients, caregivers and investigators who participated in this study.”

“In the first reported data from the clinical combinations of our PRMT5 inhibitor vopimetostat and RAS(ON) inhibitors, we saw extremely encouraging early results, with 92% of patients with PDAC in the vopimetostat plus daraxonrasib arm achieving an objective response, supporting the preclinical data showing synergistic activity of PRMT5 + RAS
“Non-small cell lung cancer is the most prevalent lung disease with more than 8,000 patients in the U.S. diagnosed each year with KRAS G12D-mutations. Receiving Fast Track designation for VS-7375 reinforces both the significant unmet need and the potential of VS-7375 to improve outcomes for patients with KRAS G12D-mutated lung
“KRAS has notoriously been considered an undruggable target and patients with KRAS-driven cancers continue to face limited treatment options with survival measured in months, not years,” said John Reed, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Innovative Medicine, Research & Development, Johnson & Johnson. “We believe the proprietary Firelink™ platform will overcome
