The data is being presented today by Dr. Guillermo Garcia-Manero (Poster #: 4595) at the 66th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition being held December 7-10, in San Diego, California and virtually. \n\"Elderly patients with transfusion dependent LR-MDS have few effective treatment options. We are encouraged by the safety and tolerability profile demonstrated by R289 thus far, and by the first evidence of hematologic responses, namely transfusion independence, observed,\" said Lisa Rojkjaer, M.D, Rigel's chief medical officer. \"The promising initial safety and efficacy data, together with the recent Fast Track designation from the FDA, underscores the potential of R289 as a new treatment option for these patients.\"\nRigel's open-label, Phase 1b study of R289 is enrolling patients with lower-risk MDS who are R/R to prior therapies (NCT05308264). The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of R289 with secondary objectives to assess preliminary efficacy of R289 and characterize its pharmacokinetic profile. \nKey highlights from the interim data as of October 25, 2024, include:\n\n22 patients were enrolled. The median age was 76; the median number of prior therapies was 3 (range: 1-8); 73% and 77% of patients had received a hypomethylating agent or luspatercept, respectively; and 73% of patients were high transfusion burden (HTB) at baseline.\nThe median time on therapy was 4.6 months (range: 0.9-22.4 months). R289 was generally well-tolerated in this heavily pretreated LR-MDS patient population, the majority of whom were HTB. The most common treatment emergent adverse events (in ≥20% of patients) were diarrhea and fatigue (each n=6, 27%), and chills, nausea and pruritus (all n=5, 23%), which were all Grade 1/2. The most frequent Grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) were anemia, platelet count decreased, pneumonia and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased (all n=2,9%). One patient discontinued study drug due to hyperuricemia (not drug related) and a second patient discontinued study due to Grade 3 aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/Grade 4 ALT increase (drug related).\nR835 exposure increased with increasing R289 dose. At doses ≥500 mg QD (once daily), R835 plasma concentrations at steady state in some patients were ≥ those correlating with 50% or 90% lipopolysaccharide-induced cytokine inhibition previously observed in a healthy volunteer study.\nFor the 18 efficacy evaluable patients (≥1 dose of R289 with ≥1 efficacy assessment), hematologic responses occurred in 40% (4/10) of evaluable transfusion dependent patients receiving R289 doses ≥500 mg QD. Red blood cell (RBC)-transfusion independence (RBC-TI) ≥8 weeks was achieved by three patients (1 at 500 mg QD and 2 at 750 mg QD); two HTB patients achieved RBC-TI >24 weeks. The median duration of RBC-TI was 29 weeks (range 12.7-51.9 weeks).\nOne HTB patient receiving 500 mg QD achieved a minor hematologic improvement-erythroid (HI-E) response, with a 64% reduction in RBC transfusions compared to baseline.\n\nAdditional supporting data:\n\nThe patients achieving RBC-TI had peak hemoglobin increases exceeding 2.0 g/dL compared to baseline.\nThere were no RBC-TI/HI-E responses in evaluable transfusion dependence patients receiving R289 doses of 250 mg QD and 250 mg BID.\n\nR289 was recently granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with previously-treated transfusion dependent LR-MDS.\nPoster #: 4595Title: R289, a Dual IRAK 1/4 Inhibitor, in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory (R/R) Lower-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (LR-MDS): Initial Results from a Phase 1b StudySession: 637. Myelodysplastic Syndromes: Clinical and Epidemiological: Poster IIITime: Monday, December 9, 2024, 6:00pm to 8:00pm PTLocation: Halls G-H (San Diego Convention Center)\nAbout R289R289 is a prodrug of R835, an IRAK1/4 dual inhibitor, which has been shown in preclinical studies to block inflammatory cytokine production in response to toll-like receptor (TLR) and interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) family signaling. TLRs and IL-1Rs play a critical role in the innate immune response and dysregulation of these pathways can lead to various inflammatory conditions. Chronic stimulation of both these receptor systems is thought to cause the pro-inflammatory environment in the bone marrow responsible for persistent cytopenias in lower-risk MDS patients.2\nAbout RigelRigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
