Revolution Medicines Begins Treating Patients in Phase 3 RASolute 309 Trial Evaluating RASONQUE™ (daraxonrasib) Plus Zoldonrasib as First-Line Treatment for Metastatic RAS G12D Pancreatic Cancer
The company reported initial antitumor activity with the combination in previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Rhea-AI Summary
Revolution Medicines (Nasdaq: RVMD) has begun treating patients in RASolute 309, testing RASONQUE plus zoldonrasib as first-line treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer.
The global, randomized, open-label Phase 3 trial enrolls adults with RAS G12D pancreatic adenocarcinoma and compares the combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel. Its dual primary endpoints are progression-free survival, the time without cancer worsening, and overall survival. Secondary measures include tumor response, response duration, safety, tolerability, drug behavior in the body and patient-reported outcomes. RASONQUE is already FDA-approved for adults with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy. Zoldonrasib remains investigational.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.
Positive

- Minor pointInitial clinical data showed antitumor activity and manageable safety in previously treated metastatic PDAC, the company said.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a global, commercial-stage oncology company dedicated to discovering, developing and delivering innovative medicines for patients with RAS-addicted cancers, today announced that it has begun treating patients in RASolute 309, a global, randomized Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the combination of RASONQUE (daraxonrasib), a RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor, and zoldonrasib, an investigational RAS(ON) G12D-selective inhibitor, as a first-line treatment in adult patients with metastatic RAS G12D pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
“RAS G12D is the most common RAS variant in PDAC,” said Alan Sandler, M.D., chief development officer of Revolution Medicines. “In preclinical studies, the combination of RAS(ON) multi-selective and G12D-selective inhibitors achieved deeper and more sustained suppression of RAS signaling than either agent alone, accompanied by greater tumor control. Likewise, initial clinical data showed that RASONQUE plus zoldonrasib delivered compelling antitumor activity in patients with previously treated metastatic PDAC, with a manageable safety and tolerability profile. In the context of the unmet need in this patient population, these findings informed the design of the first-line RASolute 309 trial in patients with PDAC. RASolute 309 is the first Phase 3 study evaluating a RAS(ON) inhibitor doublet approach and it marks an important milestone in our efforts to advance a range of potential treatment options for patients with RAS-driven cancers across tumor types and treatment settings.”
RASolute 309 (NCT07805954) is a global, randomized, open-label Phase 3 trial evaluating RASONQUE plus zoldonrasib compared with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (GnP) as a first-line treatment in adult patients with metastatic RAS G12D PDAC. The dual primary endpoints are progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival. Key secondary endpoints include PFS, objective response rate, duration of response, safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and patient-reported outcomes.
About Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma, or PDAC, is the most common form of pancreatic cancer and among the most challenging malignancies. Approximately 55,000 people are diagnosed with PDAC in the U.S. each year, and more than 50,000 die from the disease.1,2 Because early-stage pancreatic cancer often causes few or no symptoms, approximately
About Zoldonrasib
Zoldonrasib is an investigational, oral, RAS(ON) G12D-selective, covalent tri-complex inhibitor that binds to cyclophilin A, creating a binary complex that binds to and inhibits the active, oncogenic RAS(ON) G12D mutation. RAS G12D is the most prevalent RAS mutation, accounting for
About RASONQUE™ (daraxonrasib)
RASONQUE (daraxonrasib) is an oral, RAS(ON) multi-selective, noncovalent, tri-complex inhibitor, approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or who are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy.7 RASONQUE is being investigated through a global Phase 3 registrational program in patients with PDAC and metastatic RAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer. Outside the U.S., RASONQUE is an investigational agent that has not been approved by any regulatory authority.
U.S. FDA APPROVED INDICATION
RASONQUE is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or who are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR U.S. APPROVED INDICATION
RASONQUE is associated with the following Warnings and Precautions: Dermatologic and Soft Tissue Toxicity, Stomatitis and Oral Disorders, Diarrhea, Gastrointestinal Perforation, Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis, and Embryo-Fetal Toxicity.
