Patient deaths trigger discontinuation of Ph 1 trial from SGR-2921 Program in R/R AML and HR-MDS patients

While disappointing given the early clinical activity observed, we believe this is the right decision for patients,” stated Margaret Dugan, M.D., chief medical officer at Schrödinger. “We had hoped to advance this investigational agent for acute myeloid leukemia as relapse rates are high, the disease progresses rapidly and there are limited therapies available. We are very grateful to the investigators, patients and families who have participated in this clinical study.”
