Ongoing Clinical Trials

- TakeAim Leukemia Study (Phase 1/2): This trial is assessing emavusertib as a monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and relapsed or refractory high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (hrMDS) with specific mutations (FLT3, U2AF1, or SF3B1).
- Frontline AML Combination Therapy: Emavusertib is also being evaluated in combination with azacitidine and venetoclax as a frontline therapy for patients with AML.
Orphan Drug Designation
Emavusertib has received Orphan Drug Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of AML and MDS, highlighting the unmet need for effective therapies in these diseases.
Collaboration and Licensing
Curis (搜索) has an exclusive license to emavusertib through its collaboration with Aurigene (搜索), established in 2015. Additionally, Curis licensed its rights to Erivedge to Genentech (a member of the Roche Group), which is commercializing the drug for advanced basal cell carcinoma (搜索).
