Final Results of Ph 3 ASCERTAIN Trial of Oral Decitabine and Cedazuridine Fixed Dose Combination (INQOVI®) in Patients With MDS and CMML published
“Until recently, azacitidine and decitabine, both widely used hypomethylating agents, were available only in parenteral form, requiring patients with MDS and CMML to travel to treatment centers daily for 5 or 7 consecutive days of each 28-day treatment cycle,” said Guillermo Garcia-Manero, MD, Professor, Department of Leukemia, Division of Cancer Medicine, the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, and the lead author on the publication. “The ASCERTAIN study has demonstrated that the orally delivered fixed dose combination of decitabine and cedazuridine is an alternative option to parenteral administration of decitabine for patients with these diseases. The observed median overall survival of greater than 30 months in the ASCERTAIN study compared with historical controls is encouraging.”
