Positive Initial Topline Ph 2a Data of SLS009 in AML announced
“This outcome may represent a long-awaited breakthrough in treating patients refractory to venetoclax combination therapies after multiple lines of treatment,” said Dr. Omer Jamy, a principal investigator in the study and Assistant Professor of Medicine at the O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) and Associate Director of the Bone Marrow Transplant Program at UAB. “Almost all older AML patients in the United States are treated with venetoclax combinations at some point during their course of treatment and, unfortunately, the majority of them become resistant to venetoclax with limited options thereafter. Survival of those patients with currently available treatment options is approximately 2.5 to 3 months. Based on what we have seen to date in this Phase 2a study of SLS009, we have managed to reverse this resistance to therapy and, equally important, extend survival in addition to a very good safety profile and quality of life. I hope to see continuation of this pattern in other patients enrolled later.”
