Venetoclax Plus HMA Therapy Shows Encouraging Results in Higher-Risk MDS/CMML
Details:
Inqovi is a combination of decitabine, a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor, and cedazuridine, a cytidine deaminase inhibitor. It is being evaluated in combination with venetoclax for the treatment of higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes & chronic myelomonocytic leukemia.
Truqap, a first-in-class AKT inhibitor, discovered by AstraZeneca subsequent to its collaboration with Astex, recently approved by FDA in combination with Faslodex, for treatment for adult patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
Truqap (capivasertib), a first in class, oral targeted inhibitor of the cancer-driving protein AKT, was discovered by AstraZeneca subsequent to its discovery collaboration with Astex.
Inaqovi (decitabine and cedazuridine) is an orally administered, fixed-dose combination and inhibitor of cytidine deaminase, which is indicated for newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia.
Under the collaboration, Astex will apply its fragment-based drug discovery platform to develop small molecule candidates targeting multiple forms of the p53 tumour suppressor protein for the treatment of cancer.
Under the terms of the agreement, scientists at the MDI and Astex will collaborate to carry out drug discovery research against a chosen lysosomal target with the aim to identify and optimise compounds that modulate its activity to treat neurodegenerative diseases.
AZD 5363 (capivasertib) is an investigational oral treatment currently in Phase III trials for the treatment of multiple subtypes of breast cancer, prostate cancer and a Phase II trial for haematologic malignancies.
ASTX727 is an orally administered, fixed dose combination of the approved anti-cancer DNA hypomethylating agent, decitabine, together with cedazuridine, an inhibitor of cytidine deaminase.
In new exploratory analysis of data from MONALEESA-2 study, Kisqali (ribociclib) plus letrozole maintained an OS benefit for postmenopausal patients with metastatic breast cancer treated in first-line, including for those patients who required dose modification of Kisqali.
ASCERTAIN - AML clinical study of decitabine and cedazuridine, as a fixed-dose combination (ASTX727), in adult patients with AML not candidates for chemotherapy demonstrated decitabine exposure equivalence of total 5-day dosing between oral ASTX727 and intravenous decitabine.
