Statistically Significant Topline Results from Global Ph 2 Trial of Elraglusib in 1L Treatment of Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Announced
“Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive and difficult-to-treat malignancies, where patients urgently need new therapeutic options,” said Daniel Schmitt, President & Chief Executive Officer of Actuate. “There have been no major advances in improving survival in first-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer in over a decade. Demonstrating statistically significant increases in both median overall survival and percent of patients reaching one-year survival and beyond, along with a favorable risk-benefit profile in this Phase 2 trial, further demonstrates elraglusib’s potential to shift the treatment paradigm in mPDAC. We are incredibly excited to present the topline data at ASCO. Based on the significant improvement in survival we have seen to date in the combination arm, we look forward to working with US and EU regulators in the second half of this year to map out the path to advancing elraglusib to NDA and registration and making the drug available to patients as expeditiously as possible.”
