“With generally poor responses to current therapies and a five-year survival rate of just 28%, there are significant gaps in treatments for adult AML patients,” said Sanjeev Luther, President and CEO of Rafael Pharmaceuticals. Should these experiments show efficacy of devimistat additional AML trials in the upfront setting will be considered.
The Barer Institute Inc. a subsidiary of Rafael Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: RFL) and University Place Associates (UPA) have announced that The Barer Institute has signed a non-binding Letter of Intent to lease Growth Pod space at 3.0 University Place in University City.
Mr. Luther will discuss the status of the Company’s clinical development strategy, as well as provide an update on the drug development pipeline and its plans for new trials in 2020. Rafael is currently conducting two pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials for its drug CPI-613® (devimistat) in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer and acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Through this collaboration, researchers will evaluate the effects of CPI-613® (devimistat) with or without chemotherapy agents, including oxaliplatin/cisplatin/5-FU/carboplatin/taxol, on esophageal cancer cells. “With our focus on hard-to-treat cancers, especially those in the gastrointestinal tract, research in treating esophageal cancer has been a significant goal for us,” said Sanjeev Luther, President and CEO of Rafael Pharmaceuticals. “The high standards and caliber of researchers at Roswell Park made this research possible, and we are honored to partner with them.”
The results will be presented by Dr. Angela Tatiana Alistar, M.D., Medical Director of Gastrointestinal (GI) Medical Oncology at Morristown Medical Center and principal investigator on the trial. Overall, the treatment was well-tolerated and demonstrated positive results that show devimistat can be safely administered with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel at doses up to 1,500 m/g2.
