First Patient Dosed in Investigator-Initiated Trial (IIT) of Danvatirsen in Ph 1 for AML/MDS Cancers

“We are excited to dose the first patient and initiate a potentially ground-breaking study to evaluate a novel therapeutic strategy targeting STAT3 with danvatirsen for patients suffering from AML and MDS.  This clinical trial builds upon the work that my team has done in the research lab over the past decade, and is a good example of a bench to bedside partnership between academic medical centers and industry,” said Aditi Shastri, M.D., Principal Investigator of the IIT, Member of MECCC’s Stem Cell & Cancer Biology Research Program and Blood Cancer Institute, and Associate Professor of Oncology, Medicine, and Developmental and Molecular Biology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine.  “I look forward to working with the Flamingo team to continue generating promising results in the ongoing clinical trial.”
