IDEAYA Biosciences Inc (NASDAQ: IDYA) has announced interim Phase 1 data for IDE397 in patients with solid tumors with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) deletion, estimated to represent approximately 15% of solid tumors.
The observed steady-state plasma SAM exceeds the target of >60% reduction of plasma S-adenosyl methionine (SAM), a proximal PD biomarker of target engagement, across all evaluated cohorts.
Cohort 5 showed a mean 77% reduction of steady state plasma SAM compared to baseline.
Treatment with IDE397 in Cohort 5 resulted in a 95% reduction of tumor symmetric dimethyl arginine (SDMA) in a non-small cell lung cancer, a tumor PD biomarker.
No drug-related Serious Adverse Events were observed.
