Kura Oncology is dedicated to developing precision medicines for cancer treatment. The company’s portfolio features small molecule drug candidates designed to target cancer signaling pathways. One of its key candidates, Ziftomenib, is an oral, once-daily drug targeting the menin-KMT2A protein interaction. Ziftomenib has received Breakthrough Therapy Designation for treating relapsed/refractory (R/R) NPM1-mutant acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Kura has finished enrolling participants in a Phase 2 registration-directed trial (KOMET-001) for this drug in R/R NPM1-mutant AML. Additionally, Kura is conducting various clinical trials to assess the efficacy of Ziftomenib combined with current standard treatments in both newly diagnosed and R/R NPM1-mutant and KMT2A-rearranged AML.
Another prominent candidate in Kura’s pipeline is Tipifarnib, a selective farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI). Tipifarnib is currently being tested in a Phase 1/2 trial in combination with alpelisib for patients with PIK3CA-dependent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (KURRENT-HN). Kura is also investigating KO-2806, a next-generation FTI, in a Phase 1 dose-escalation trial as both a monotherapy and in combination with other targeted therapies (FIT-001).
