SAN MATEO, Calif. and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kronos Bio, Inc. (Nasdaq: KRON), a company dedicated to transforming the lives of those affected by cancer, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in the registrational Phase 3 AGILITY clinical trial of entospletinib, a selective inhibitor targeting spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK), in combination with standard of care anthracycline and cytarabine (7+3) chemotherapy. This trial is the first in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) to use measurable residual disease (MRD) as the primary endpoint and has the potential to support accelerated approval of entospletinib by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a treatment for patients newly diagnosed with NPM1-mutated AML who are fit for intensive induction.

Key Points: 
  • Entospletinib is Kronos Bios lead product candidate, and the company expects to share data from the trial in the second half of 2023.
  • This trial will test the hypothesis, based on robust preclinical and Phase 2 clinical data, that NPM1 mutation leads to dependency on SYK signaling.
  • In the trial, patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either entospletinib or placebo in combination with standard induction and consolidation chemotherapy.
  • Kronos Bio is developing entospletinib for the frontline treatment of NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
