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.

Purpose: FHD-609, a potent, selective, heterobifunctional degrader of bromodomain-containing protein 9 (BRD9), was evaluated for treatment of patients with advanced synovial sarcoma (SS) or SMARCB1-deficient tumors.

Patients And Methods: In this multinational, open-label, phase 1 study (NCT04965753), patients received FHD609 intravenously at escalating doses either twice weekly (BIW) (5 to 80 mg; n=40) or once weekly (QW) (40 to 120 mg; n=15).

Results: Fifty-five patients received FHD-609 for a median of 43 days.

Purpose: Survival of patients with metastatic sarcoma remains poor, and there is a pressing need for new therapies. Most sarcoma subtypes are not responsive to immune checkpoint inhibition alone. Lenvatinib, a multireceptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting tumor vasculature, has an immunomodulatory activity that contributes to its antitumor effects.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study used the E-Delphi method, where clinical experts provided feedback through multiple rounds to refine a 35-item questionnaire assessing KAP about DT, achieving majority consensus on various statements.
  • * Ultimately, 34 items were included in the final questionnaire, with sections dedicated to knowledge (15 items), attitude (8 items), and practice (11 items), demonstrating the need for improved awareness among healthcare providers about DT.
