Preliminary Data from Ongoing Ph 1/2a Dose Escalation Trial of VS-7375 in Patients with KRAS G12D Mutant Solid Tumors Announced
“Preliminary safety and tolerability data from our ongoing Phase 1/2a trial indicate that VS-7375, a potential best-in-class oral KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor, can be administered at efficacious doses while effectively managing gastrointestinal side effects,” said Dan Paterson, president and chief executive officer of Verastem Oncology. “While still early, we are pleased to see anti-tumor activity among pre-treated patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and other solid tumors. As we continue monotherapy dose escalation, we are excited to open the combination cohort evaluating VS-7375 with cetuximab just months after trial initiation. By starting this combination cohort at a dose of VS-7375 that has previously demonstrated monotherapy efficacy, we expect to accelerate our clinical development program with other standard-of-care combination cohorts.”
