Planned Combination Strategy for EO-3021 in Patients with Gastric or GEJ Cancer Announced
“EO-3021 has the potential to change the treatment paradigm for tumors that express Claudin 18.2, including a majority of gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinomas,” said Valerie Malyvanh Jansen, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of Elevation Oncology. “Based on safety data from preclinical and clinical trials, we believe EO-3021 benefits from a differentiated safety profile and will be readily combinable. We also know that combination-based regimens are a mainstay of cancer care, and that the combination of two therapies with distinct mechanisms of action often enables patients to achieve deeper, more durable responses. As such, we are excited to begin evaluating EO-3021 together with ramucirumab, a VEGFR2 inhibitor, and with dostarlimab, a PD-1 inhibitor, in the second- and first-line settings, respectively. In parallel, we continue to advance our Phase 1 trial of EO-3021 monotherapy toward initial safety and efficacy data by mid-third quarter.”
