Syndax Announces Completion of Enrollment in AUGMENT-101 Pivotal Trial Cohort of Patients with Relapsed/Refractory mNPM1 Acute Myeloid Leukemia
– Topline data expected in 4Q24 could support sNDA filing in 1H25 –
– Revumenib has the potential to address
U.S. market opportunity –
"We are thrilled to announce that we are one step closer to potentially expanding the therapeutic reach of revumenib in genetically defined acute leukemias," said
Sixty-four (64) adult and up to 20 pediatric patients with mNPM1 AML have been enrolled into the pivotal portion of AUGMENT-101, a pivotal trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of orally administered revumenib. The primary endpoint for the trial is efficacy as measured by complete remission (CR) or a CR with partial hematological recovery (CRh) rate (CR + CRh) per protocol, with secondary endpoints including duration of response (DOR) and overall survival (OS).
A new drug application (NDA) is under review by the
About Revumenib
Revumenib is a potent, selective, small molecule inhibitor of the menin-KMT2A binding interaction that is being developed for the treatment of KMT2A-rearranged, also known as mixed lineage leukemia rearranged or MLLr, acute leukemias including ALL and AML, and NPM1-mutant AML. Positive topline results from the Phase 2 AUGMENT-101 trial in R/R KMT2Ar acute leukemia showing the trial met its primary endpoint were presented at the 65th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and data from the Phase 1 portion of AUGMENT-101 in acute leukemia was published in Nature. Revumenib was granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA and European Commission for the treatment of patients with AML, and Fast Track designation by the FDA for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with R/R acute leukemias harboring a KMT2A rearrangement or NPM1 mutation. Revumenib was granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) by the FDA for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with R/R acute leukemia harboring a KMT2A rearrangement.
About NPM1-Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia
NPM1-mutant AML, which is distinguished by mutations in the NPM1 gene that drive the leukemic phenotype, is the most common type of cytogenetically normal adult AML and represents approximately 30% of all adult AML cases. This subtype of AML has a five-year overall survival rate of approximately 50%. Similar to KMT2A-rearranged acute leukemia, NPM1-mutant AML is highly dependent on the expression of specific developmental genes shown to be negatively impacted by inhibitors of the menin-KMT2A interaction. NPM1-mutant AML is routinely diagnosed through currently available screening techniques. There are currently no approved therapies indicated for NPM1-mutant AML.
