A Randomized Phase II Trial of Enasidenib-Based Therapies Versus Cedazuridine-Decitabine in Higher-Risk IDH2-Mutated Myelodysplastic Syndrome: A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial

This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial compares the usual treatment of cedazuridine-decitabine (ASTX727) to the combination treatment of ASTX727 and enasidenib in treating patients with higher-risk, IDH2-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ASTX727 is a combination of two drugs, decitabine and cedazuridine. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Enasidenib is an enzyme inhibitor that may stop the growth of cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving ASTX727 in combination with enasidenib may be effective in treating patients with higher-risk IDH2-mutated MDS.

A Randomized Phase II Trial of ASTX727 and Venetoclax Compared With ASTX727, Venetoclax, and Enasidenib for Newly Diagnosed Older Adults With IDH2 Mutant Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A MyeloMATCH Substudy

This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial studies how well ASTX727 and venetoclax plus enasidenib works compared to ASTX727 and venetoclax alone for the treatment of older patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or younger patients who are considered unfit for standard treatment, and who have an abnormal change (mutation) in the IDH2 gene. This gene mutation can cause AML to grow and spread. This trial is being done to see if adding enasidenib to the usual treatment can help more patients with the IDH2 gene get rid of AML. Cedazuridine is in a class of medications called cytidine deaminase inhibitors. It prevents the breakdown of decitabine, making it more available in the body so that decitabine will have a greater effect. Decitabine is in a class of medications called hypomethylation agents. It works by helping the bone marrow produce normal blood cells and by killing abnormal cells in the bone marrow. Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Enasidenib works by stopping the growth and spread of tumor cells that have the IDH2 mutation. Giving ASTX727 and venetoclax plus enasidenib may work better in treating AML patients with the IDH2 mutation.

Safety profile of isocitrate dehydrogenase inhibitors in cancer therapy: a pharmacovigilance study of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System

Article

Author: Li, Ruizhen ; Lv, Ruxue ; Fu, Yiming ; Guo, Zhaoze ; Li, Wenjie

BACKGROUND:

Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) inhibitors hold promise for IDH-mutated cancer patients and demonstrated favorable clinical efficacy. Nonetheless, a comprehensive understanding of the associated toxicities of IDH inhibitors remains notably lacking.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:

This pharmacovigilance analysis utilized the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to assess notable adverse events (AEs) attributed to IDH inhibitors (enasidenib and ivosidenib) from January 2018 to December 2023.

RESULTS:

In the FAERS database, 2,905 enasidenib-associated and 1,289 ivosidenib-related AEs records were identified, respectively. The toxicity profiles of IDH1 and IDH2 inhibitors exhibited notable similarities. The most commonly significant system-organ classes induced by IDH inhibitors encompassed general disorders and administration site conditions, investigations, gastrointestinal disorders, and infections and infestations. The most common AEs included nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, decreased appetite, decreased platelet count, fever, pneumonia, weakness, sepsis, constipation, vomiting, rash, and reduced hemoglobin levels. Notably, temporal analysis of AEs shows enasidenib and ivosidenib have median onset times of 137 and 75 days, with distinct initial peak frequencies.

CONCLUSION:

The reversible nature of the toxicities associated with IDH inhibitors underscores their promise as a therapeutic agent with a favorable safety profile.

Inhibition of respiratory syncytial virus by Daclatasvir and its derivatives: synthesis of computational derivatives as a new drug development

Article

Author: Mitra, Debanjan ; Abdalla, Mohnad ; Afreen, Shagufta ; Das Mohapatra, Pradeep K.

The most common cause of respiratory tract illness in newborns and young children is the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). There is no approved vaccination or specific antiviral medication for RSV infections. Here, an attempt has been made to explore the potential of currently marketed drugs as well as their probable derivatives to improve the possibility of developing stronger medications against RSV. From the 100 synthetic drug compounds library, the best drug molecule was identified through drug-likeness properties, toxicity, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Molecular Mechanics Generalized Born Surface Area (MM-GBSA) was also a method that was applied in this study. Daclatasvir showed the highest binding energy and appeared as the best drug to inhibit matrix protein and a fusion protein of RSV. Based on Daclatasvir, 40 computational derivatives were made. D28, D34 and D40 showed far better results than the actual drug. Changes in lipophilicity character increase the binding energy of derivatives. Molecular dynamic simulations showed their non-deviated, non-fluctuated and stable complex formation with target proteins. The high number of amino acid contacts throughout the trajectory increases the stability and effectiveness of derivatives. The key to producing a novel medicine to eradicate RSV is provided by derivatives. Daclatasvir will be employed as a potential RSV inhibitor up until that point.

Cost-effectiveness of Enasidenib versus conventional care for older patients with IDH2- mutant refractory/relapsed AML

Article

Author: Zeidan, Amer M. ; Alhajahjeh, Abdulrahman ; Kewan, Tariq ; Stempel, Jessica M. ; Patel, Kishan K. ; Podoltsev, Nikolai A. ; Bewersdorf, Jan Philipp ; Goshua, George ; Mendez, Lourdes ; Stahl, Maximilian ; Shallis, Rory M. ; Huntington, Scott F.

In the randomized phase III IDHENTIFY trial, the IDH2 inhibitor enasidenib (ENA) showed improvement in event-free but not overall survival compared with conventional care regimens (CCR) among patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R), IDH2-mutant AML. We constructed a partitioned survival model to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of enasidenib for the treatment of older patients with R/R, and IDH2-mutant AML. In the base-case scenario, ENA exhibited an incremental effectiveness of 0.234quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) compared to CCR, and an incremental cost of $126,800, leading to an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of $540,300/QALY(95% CI: $197,800-$4,777,000/QALY). In probabilistic sensitivity analysis, CCR was favored in 99.8% of simulations. The cost of ENA would need to be decreased by 72% to be cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of $150,000/QALY. Our findings suggest that ENA is unlikely to be a cost-effective treatment for older patients with IDH2-mutant R/R AML under current pricing.

Announced by the NIH on Oct. 23, 2024, the Myeloid Malignancies Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice, or myeloMATCH, trials will be sponsored by NCI and conducted by the NCI-funded National Clinical Trials Network. The myeloMATCH program is comprised of trials evaluating new treatment combinations that target cancer-driving genetic mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Across the myeloMATCH program, patients will undergo rapid genetic testing of their tumors and then be matched to trials involving oral decitabine and cedazuridine, other studies within myeloMATCH or, if there are no other myeloMATCH targeted combination options for their cancer types, standard treatment. “The myeloMATCH program is designed to ensure patients with aggressive malignancies of the blood and bone marrow receive therapy directed at specific, identified abnormalities in a timely manner,” said Harold Keer, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer, Taiho Oncology. “We are excited to have oral decitabine and cedazuridine included in this innovative clinical trial program. The inclusion of all oral regimens in the setting of myeloid malignancies has the potential to produce practice-changing data and reduce the treatment burden that patients and their loved ones face.” Oral decitabine and cedazuridine will be included in two trials within the myeloMATCH program: A Phase 2 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT06577441) will compare oral decitabine and cedazuridine to the combination treatment of oral decitabine and cedazuridine and enasidenib in treating patients with higher-risk, IDH2-mutated MDS. The trial will compare the complete remission (CR) rate between the two study groups and assess other endpoints, including safety. A Phase 2 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT06672146) will compare oral decitabine and cedazuridine and venetoclax plus enasidenib compared to oral decitabine and cedazuridine and venetoclax alone for the treatment of older patients with newly diagnosed AML or younger patients who are unable to receive standard treatment, and who have a mutation in the IDH2 gene. The trial will evaluate safety and compare the rate of measurable residual disease (MRD) negative complete remission (CR), as well as other secondary endpoints.
