We were encouraged by the response rate among the non-Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma (ACC) population with nuclear GSK-3β overexpression given this difficult to treat and rare cancer type", said Dr. Glenn Hanna, Director of the Center for Cancer Therapeutic Innovation (CCTI), the early drug development program at Dana Farber Cancer Institute, who led the team conducting this clinical study. Separately, an independent research group led by Dr. Wafik S El-Deiry from Legorreta Cancer Center at Brown University will present a poster demonstrating the synergistic effects of elraglusib in combination with ONC206 or ONC212, investigational compounds from Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc. Poster presentation details: Title: Elraglusib (9-ING-41), a glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitor in combination with imipridones for treatment of solid cancer Session Title: Drug Combination Strategies for Cancer Treatment Session Date and Time: April 28, 2025, 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM Location: Poster Section Poster Section 19 Abstract Presentation Number: 1693 About Actuate Therapeutics, Inc. Actuate is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies for the treatment of high-impact, difficult-to-treat cancers. Actuate’s lead investigational drug, elraglusib (a novel GSK-3β inhibitor), targets molecular pathways in cancer that are involved in promoting tumor growth and resistance to conventional cancer drugs such as chemotherapy through the inhibition of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) and DNA Damage Response (DDR). Elraglusib may also mediate anti-tumor immunity through the regulation of multiple immune checkpoints and immune cell function.

Initial Data from this Phase 2 Trial Demonstrates Early Evidence of Clinical Activity of Elraglusib (9-ING-41) in Combination with FOLFIRINOX and Losartan in Untreated Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (mPDAC) The Final Results from the Trial are Anticipated in 2026 CHICAGO and FORT WORTH, Texas, Feb. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Actuate Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACTU) (“Actuate” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, focused on developing therapies for the treatment of high-impact, difficult-to-treat cancers through the inhibition of glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3β), announced the completion of patient enrollment in the ongoing Phase 2 trial of FOLFIRINOX in combination with elraglusib and losartan for untreated metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (mPDAC). The trial is being led by Colin Weekes MD PhD at Massachusetts General Hospital and is supported by the Lustgarten Foundation as well as Actuate Therapeutics. Additional sites participating in the study include The University of Colorado (led by Cristopher Lieu, MD) and the University of Washington’s Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center (led by Andrew Coveler, MD). The trial enrolled 56 treatment-naïve mPDAC patients. The primary objectives of this Phase 2 open-label, non-comparator study (NCT05077800) are to determine the safety, tolerability, and progression-free survival of the combination of elraglusib with FOLFIRINOX and losartan . “The completion of enrollment in this trial represents an important milestone in the development of elraglusib in metastatic pancreatic cancer,” said Daniel Schmitt, President & Chief Executive Officer of Actuate. “Initial data from this combination trial, as presented by Dr. Weekes’ team at the AACR Special Conference on Advances in Pancreatic Cancer Research in September 2024, demonstrated early evidence of enhanced clinical activity when elraglusib was combined with FOLFIRINOX and losartan in patients with untreated mPDAC. We are proud to support this important trial and remain deeply committed to advancing elraglusib for patients with advanced cancer including mPDAC.” Mr. Schmitt continued, “Additionally, our recently reported interim Phase 2 data of elraglusib in combination with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GnP) also in the first-line treatment of mPDAC showed statistically significant improvements in 1-year and median overall survival, highlighting the potential of combining elraglusib with several different 1st line chemotherapy modalities in the treatment of mPDAC. We look forward to continuing both trials and further advancing our understanding of elraglusib’s therapeutic impact on mPDAC.” “We are happy to complete patient enrollment in this important trial, which represents a significant milestone in our efforts to improve the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer,” said Colin Weekes, MD, Ph.D., Director of Medical Oncology Research for Pancreatic Cancer, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the study’s Principal Investigator. “Our team is optimistic that the insights gained from this trial will drive meaningful progress in developing more effective treatment options for patients. We look forward to reporting final results from the trial in 2026.” About Actuate Therapeutics, Inc.
