First Patient Dosed in Ongoing RAINIER Trial Achieves 90% Reduction in Leukemic Blasts Within the First 30 Days of Treatment, Continues Overall Efficacy Trend Seen in Prior Mipletamig AML Studies
“The FDA’s decision to allow the RAINIER trial to proceed in a frontline setting allows us to explore mipletamig and the potential synergistic effect with standard of care in a well-defined patient population in need of improved therapy options. Safety data from our prior studies support our approach to conduct a study that is designed for a statistically defined quantitative efficacy analysis. RAINIER represents a clear development path that allows us to evaluate mipletamig in newly diagnosed patients and represents a pivotal opportunity to make a difference right at the start of treatment, where outcomes can have the greatest impact,” said Dirk Huebner, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Aptevo.

“Beyond the second-line monotherapy opportunity, we and our partners at Pfizer have removed plans for a Phase 3 first-line combination trial with atirmociclib, as well as the planned Phase 3 second-line combination trial with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, from our joint development plan,” continued Dr. Houston. “This decision was made following
“The interim PFS analysis results demonstrated that, compared to the current standard treatment, KN026 in combination with chemotherapy significantly improved PFS, reduced the risk of disease progression or death, and showed a trend toward OS benefit. Detailed data from this study will be presented at an upcoming international academic conference.”
