Full safety data collection and analysis for this cohort is ongoing. One serious adverse event was attributed by an investigator as possibly related to ONC201.
These patients were two years of age or older, had a measurable diffuse midline glioma with the H3 K27M- mutation, and had evidence of disease progression following prior therapy with at least radiation completed at least 90 days prior to enrollment. This cohort was comprised of the first 50 patients enrolled across five ONC201 clinical studies who met specific criteria based on feedback from the FDA. "Given the very limited treatment options for patients with recurrent H3 K27M-mutant glioma, we are encouraged by the durable tumor regressions seen in some patients treated with ONC201," said Dr. In the context of an oral therapy that has demonstrated an attractive safety profile in prior reports, we are very excited about the potential of ONC201 to help children and adult patients." In fact, 11 of the 12 evaluable RANO responders (HGG or LGG) also had accompanying corticosteroid reduction or performance status improvement. Importantly, tumor responses were quite durable and associated with other measures of clinical benefit including sustained reduction in corticosteroid use, performance status improvement, and survival beyond 24 months. "This mutation is considered high grade regardless of histology when present in diffuse midline gliomas and yet the consistency in response between RANO-HGG and -LGG criteria is important in that responses in both enhancing and non-enhancing measures of disease confer benefit to patients. It sets the stage for future study of ONC201 earlier in treatment," said Mike Sherman, Chief Executive Officer of Chimerix. ONC201 results are particularly notable in light of extended wash-out periods required to ensure isolation of ONC201 single agent effect. There currently are no effective therapeutic options for patients with recurrent disease after radiation other than palliation. "The ONC201 data to be presented at SNO show impressive and consistent results in a disease where life expectancy is exceedingly limited. Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Criteria for Low Grade Gliomas (RANO-LGG) criteria assessed by dual reader BICRĪmong evaluable patients (those receiving at least 4mg of dexamethasone daily at baseline), 46.7% achieved at least a 50% confirmed reduction in corticosteroid doseĪmong evaluable patients (those with a baseline performance status (KPS/LPS) score of 80 or lower), 20.6% achieved a confirmed improvement, indicative of improved quality of life. Median duration of response (DOR): 11.2 months (95% CI: 3.8 – not reached) Overall response rate (ORR): 20% (95% CI: 10 – 34%) including one complete response Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Criteria for High Grade Gliomas (RANO-HGG) criteria assessed by dual reader blinded independent central review (BICR) ONC201 monotherapy exhibited durable and clinically meaningful efficacy in recurrent H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma (DMG) patients: Arrillaga-Romany will join management for a conference call on Monday, Novemto give an additional overview of the data. These data will be presented by Isabel Arrillaga-Romany, MD, PhD, Director of Neuro-Oncology Clinical Trials, Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center tomorrow, November 20, 2021, during a plenary session at the Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) Annual Meeting in Boston, MA. ONC201 is an orally administered small molecule dopamine receptor D2 (DRD2) antagonist and caseinolytic protease (ClpP) agonist for the treatment of recurrent gliomas that harbor the H3 K27M- mutation. 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Chimerix (NASDAQ:CMRX), a biopharmaceutical company whose mission it is to develop medicines that meaningfully improve and extend the lives of patients facing deadly diseases, today announced the presentation of positive data from its 50-patient efficacy analysis of ONC201 for the treatment of recurrent H3 K27M-mutant diffuse midline glioma.
