Global Registrational Ph 3 Study of Lisaftoclax for 1L Higher-Risk MDS Cleared by US FDA and EMA
Dr. Yifan Zhai, Chief Medical Officer of Ascentage Pharma, said, “Globally, we still lack targeted therapies for first-line treatment of patients with higher-risk MDS, which represents a huge unmet clinical need. Currently, hypomethylating agents (HMA) and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) remain the primary treatment options for higher-risk MDS. In earlier studies, lisaftoclax has demonstrated promising clinical benefit and tolerability. The clearances of the GLORA-4 study by the U.S. FDA and EMA, coinciding with the approval by the China CDE, pave the way for lisaftoclax to potentially become the first Bcl-2 inhibitor approved globally for first-line treatment of higher-risk MDS and the first targeted therapy approved for this indication since the introduction of HMA, which fundamentally reshapes the treatment landscape.”
