RAMP 203 Ph 1/2 Trial for Advanced KRAS G12C Mutant NSCLC Halted
“RAMP 203 has provided important insights into treatment strategies and demonstrated proof-of-concept. While avutometinib plus defactinib combined well with a G12C inhibitor to drive early and sustained anti-tumor responses, next generation G12C inhibitors are establishing a new benchmark with higher response rates. Accordingly, we are prioritizing our clinical development of VS-7375, a potentially best-in-class oral KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor, that demonstrated a 69% response rate (11 of 16, both confirmed and unconfirmed) in advanced KRAS G12D NSCLC and has the potential to help more patients with its differentiated approach in multiple solid tumors; and the RAMP 205 clinical trial evaluating avutometinib plus defactinib in combination with chemotherapy in first line metastatic pancreatic cancer,” said John Hayslip, chief medical officer at Verastem Oncology. “We sincerely appreciate and thank the investigators, patients, and families who participated in this program as these clinical outcomes will contribute to the development of novel therapies urgently needed for this challenging cancer.”
