Clinical Trials

The first patient has been dosed in the phase 1/2 clinical trial of an oral CDK9 inhibitor targeting MYC-amplified solid tumors known as KB-0742.

In the phase 1 clinical trial of NBTXR3 with chemotherapy and radiation therapy as treatment of patients with esophageal cancer, the first patient has been dosed with the investigational tumor-agnostic radioenhancer.

The first patient with newly diagnosed glioblastoma multiforme has been dosed with the first-in-class small molecule enzastaurin in combination with temozolomide and radiotherapy in the phase 3 ENGAGE clinical trial with an aim of determining the overall survival outcome of the drug in this patient population.

A phase 3 study was initiated for a head-to-head comparison of trastuzumab deruxtecan versus T-DM1 as adjuvant treatment of a subset of patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer.

Enzastaurin is on track to serve an unmet medical need in the treatment landscape of glioblastoma. Neuro-oncologists are waiting on the launch of an important clinical trial to further demonstrate the efficacy of the drug.

A pivotal phase 3 trial has been initiated to explore the combination of cabozantinib and atezolizumab for the treatment of patients with inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic renal cell carcinoma who progressed during or after treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor immediately following initial therapy.

The new phase III MOMENTUM clinical trial, which is evaluating the efficacy of momelotinib, a JAK1, JAK2 and ACVR1 inhibitor, versus active comparator danazol in patients with symptomatic and anemic myelofibrosis, was recently launched globally, according to a press release from Sierra Oncology.
