Primary endpoint met in Ph 2 study, FOURLIGHT-1, showing a 40% reduction in the risk of disease progression or death with manageable safety profile
“These results are especially encouraging given that the FOURLIGHT‑1 study enrolled patients whose disease had progressed soon after prior CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy, a difficult-to-treat population,” said Jeff Legos, Chief Oncology Officer, Pfizer. “The strength of these data reinforces our confidence that atirmociclib may meaningfully differentiate from the CDK4/6 inhibitor class, the standard-of-care backbone in HR-positive breast cancer, with the potential for improved efficacy and tolerability. We are continuing to accelerate development of this next-generation cell cycle inhibitor in earlier lines of therapy where it may offer even greater benefit for patients.”

“In the first reported data from the clinical combinations of our PRMT5 inhibitor vopimetostat and RAS(ON) inhibitors, we saw extremely encouraging early results, with 92% of patients with PDAC in the vopimetostat plus daraxonrasib arm achieving an objective response, supporting the preclinical data showing synergistic activity of PRMT5 + RAS
“Non-small cell lung cancer is the most prevalent lung disease with more than 8,000 patients in the U.S. diagnosed each year with KRAS G12D-mutations. Receiving Fast Track designation for VS-7375 reinforces both the significant unmet need and the potential of VS-7375 to improve outcomes for patients with KRAS G12D-mutated lung
“KRAS has notoriously been considered an undruggable target and patients with KRAS-driven cancers continue to face limited treatment options with survival measured in months, not years,” said John Reed, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Innovative Medicine, Research & Development, Johnson & Johnson. “We believe the proprietary Firelink™ platform will overcome
