Nature Medicine Publishes Results Showing Doubling of the Rate of Survival with Elraglusib + Chemo in 1L Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
“These Phase 2 results continue to reinforce elraglusib’s potential as a combination-ready, first-line therapy with the ability to enhance the activity of standard of care chemotherapeutic backbones,” said Daniel Schmitt, Chief Executive Officer of Actuate. “The significant improvement in overall survival with an acceptable safety profile marks an important milestone for patients facing metastatic pancreatic cancer, historically one of the most difficult to treat diseases. The elraglusib containing regimen delivered a 40% improvement in median overall survival, a 38% lower risk of death, and doubled the survival rate at one year compared to the current first-line chemotherapy regimen of GnP alone.
