APG-2449 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Tests APG-2449

For Advanced Solid Cancer, Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, Esophageal Cancer, Ovarian Cancer and Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

APG-2449 is a novel, orally active, multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which inhibits FAK, ALK, and ROS1 with nanomolar potencies. In preclinical studies, APG-2449 demonstrated potent antiproliferative activity in various cancer cell lines as a single agent. In combination treatment, APG-2449 enhanced anti-proliferative activities of several chemotherapeutic and targeted agents. It is indicated that APG-2449 may have a broad therapeutic potential for the treatment of human cancer as a single agent and in combination with other classes of anticancer drugs. APG-2449 is intended for the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors. Upon completion of the Phase 1 dose escalation study to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), several phase Ib/II studies will be implemented accordingly.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, arising from the interstitial cells of Cajal or their precursors.

How common: About 6,000 new cases per year in the U.S. (American Cancer Society); true incidence may be higher as small GISTs are often incidentally discovered

Mesothelioma

Mesothelioma is a rare, aggressive cancer that develops in the mesothelium, the thin layer of tissue covering most internal organs.

How common: About 3,000 new cases per year in the U.S

Myelodysplastic Syndromes

Myelodysplastic syndromes are a group of blood cancers in which the bone marrow fails to produce enough healthy blood cells.

How common: 10,000 to 15,000 new cases annually in the U.S.; estimated 60,000 to 170,000 Americans living with MDS

Waldenström Macroglobulinemia

Waldenström Macroglobulinemia is a rare blood cancer in which malignant B-lymphocytes produce excessive amounts of a protein called macroglobulin (immunoglobulin M or IgM).

How common: Approximately 1,500 new cases per year in the United States; median age of diagnosis is 68 years
