Patients enrolled into the Third Dosing Cohort of Phase 1/2 Study of ONCT-534 for the Treatment of R/R Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
“The ONCT-534-101 investigators are enthusiastic about this study, and we are excited about the enrollment and progress through the initial dosing levels. Reaching the third cohort represents an important milestone for the program, as we believe we are nearing potentially therapeutic doses that may benefit prostate cancer patients who have progressed after treatment with approved ARPI such as enzalutamide, abiraterone, apalutamide and darolutamide,” said Salim Yazji M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncternal Therapeutics. “We believe ONCT-534, with its novel mechanism of action involving both the ligand-binding domain and the N-terminal domain of the androgen receptor (AR), may address a significant unmet medical need for patients with advanced metastatic prostate cancer, especially those with splice variants of the AR, mutations in the ligand-binding domain of the AR, or AR amplification, common mechanisms of resistance that may develop to treatment with currently approved AR pathway inhibitors.”
