Homozygous MTAP deletion occurs in ~15% of cancers, making them vulnerable to decreases in the concentration of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). AG-270/S095033 is an oral, potent, reversible inhibitor of methionine adenosyltransferase 2 A (MAT2A), the enzyme primarily responsible for the synthesis of SAM. We report results from the first-in-human, phase 1 trial of AG-270/S095033 as monotherapy in patients with advanced malignancies (ClinicalTrials.

Migoprotafib is a potent and highly selective SHP2 inhibitor designed for the treatment of RAS-MAPK driven cancers, particularly in combination with other targeted agents. Here we report first-in-human study results of single agent migoprotafib in advanced solid tumor patients.
