Positive Initial Interim Safety and Efficacy Results Announced from RAMP 205 Trial of Avutometinib, Defactinib, Gemcitabine and Nab-paclitaxel combo in 1L Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
“The initial interim results from the RAMP 205 trial evaluating avutometinib and defactinib in combination with standard of care first-line chemotherapy are encouraging and demonstrate the importance of targeting the RAS/MAPK pathway, as more than 90% of pancreatic tumors have a KRAS mutation. We continue to progress the study evaluating other dose and schedule regimens to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose in the trial,” said John Hayslip, M.D., chief medical officer of Verastem Oncology. “Metastatic pancreatic cancer continues to be a challenging cancer to treat and these data support the intent behind the Therapeutic Accelerator Award that we received from PanCAN to develop new therapies faster and more efficiently than in historical studies.”
