Aakash Desai: Phase I Results for AMG 193 

“Phase I Results for AMG 193 
Exciting developments in oncology! A recent phase I study has shown that AMG 193, a novel PRMT5 inhibitor, exhibits significant antitumor activity in patients with MTAP-deleted solid tumors.

Key Highlights:

  • Objective Response Rate: 21.4% across eight tumor types, including non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and biliary tract cancer.
  • Safety Profile: Favorable, with no significant myelosuppression observed. Mainly nausea, fatigue and vomiting observed with 2 cases needing to discontinue therapy.
  • Mechanism of Action: Selectively induces synthetic lethality in MTAP-deleted tumor cells.

These findings suggest that AMG 193 could become a valuable targeted therapy for various MTAP-deleted cancers.”
