Rolling Submission of NDA to FDA initiated for Seeking Accelerated Approval of Avutometinib and Defactinib Combination for the Treatment of Adult Patients with Recurrent KRAS Mutant Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer
“The initiation of our rolling NDA submission of the avutometinib and defactinib combination for accelerated approval, is an important step towards addressing the significant unmet needs that patients face living with KRAS mutant low-grade serous ovarian cancer,” said Dan Paterson, president and chief executive officer of Verastem Oncology. “The data from our ongoing RAMP 201 trial continues to support our belief that the avutometinib and defactinib combination has the potential to be a new standard of care in patients with recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer, if approved.

We also expect to present the mature dataset at a medical meeting in the second half of 2024.”
