HUTCHMED has commenced a Phase II/III trial exploring the efficacy of a combination therapy involving surufatinib, camrelizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and gemcitabine as a first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The trial began on May 8, 2024, and aims to enroll 500 patients after an initial safety run-in stage, with the primary endpoint being overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. PDAC is a particularly aggressive cancer with a five-year survival rate of less than 10%, and existing treatments have not shown significant improvement in patient outcomes.
HUTCHMED has initiated a Phase III clinical trial of HMPL-306 for relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with IDH1/IDH2 mutations in China. The trial, named RAPHAEL, started dosing the first patient on May 11, 2024. HMPL-306 is a dual-inhibitor targeting both IDH1 and IDH2 mutations, potentially overcoming resistance seen with single inhibitors. The trial aims to enroll around 320 patients and will compare HMPL-306's effectiveness and safety to current chemotherapy regimens. Key endpoints include overall survival, event-free survival, and complete remission rates. Previous Phase I data showed promising results, with more data expected in June 2024.
