Background

Rineterkib is an inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) being investigated in NCT04097821 (A Randomized, Open-label, Phase I/II Open Platform Study Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of Novel Ruxolitinib Combinations in Myelofibrosis Patients).

Myelofibrosis Treatment Landscape Evolves with Novel Therapies and Combination Strategies

• Emerging therapies like luspatercept, nuvisertib, and pelabresib show promise in addressing myelofibrosis symptoms and anemia, potentially improving patient outcomes. • Combination strategies, particularly those involving JAK inhibitors with agents like pelabresib or navitoclax, aim to enhance spleen volume reduction and symptom control. • Research focuses on identifying biomarkers and refining endpoints to better assess disease modification and personalize treatment approaches for myelofibrosis patients. • Novel agents targeting calreticulin and hemojuvelin, along with advancements in JAK inhibitors, offer potential for more targeted and effective myelofibrosis therapies.

IAG933, a Novel YAP/TAZ-TEAD Inhibitor, Shows Promise in Preclinical Cancer Models

• IAG933 directly disrupts the YAP/TAZ-TEAD protein-protein interaction, leading to YAP eviction from chromatin and reduced Hippo-mediated transcription. • In preclinical models, IAG933 demonstrates deep tumor regression in Hippo-driven mesothelioma xenografts and shows efficacy in combination with other inhibitors in lung, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer. • The inhibitor exhibits potent antiproliferative activity in Hippo-dependent cell lines, particularly mesothelioma, and demonstrates a more rapid and profound reduction in cell viability compared to allosteric TEAD inhibitors. • Clinical evaluation of IAG933 is currently underway, marking a significant step in exploring its potential as a therapeutic agent for various solid tumors.
