MENLO PARK, Calif., June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Escend Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a privately held oncology company, announced today a poster presentation with initial data from the Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group's (ALLG) investigator-initiated Phase I/II platform study (MYDAS-T MDS05 domain 1) evaluating ES-3000 alone and in combination with ASTX727 at European Hematology Association (EHS) in Madrid, Spain.
The poster is entitled, 'Combining oral Wnt/β catenin/inflammasome pathway inhibitor, a bis-benzylisoquinoline alkaloid (ES-3000) with oral decitabine/cedazuridine (ASTX727)* as a treatment strategy for myelodysplasia'.  The primary objectives of the initial phase of the trial are to assess the safety profile of ES-3000 and determine the recommended phase 2 dose and dosing schedule of ES-3000 in combination with fixed-dose decitabine/cedazuridine (ASTX727).  The results indicate a response in 40% of evaluable patients who received ES-3000 as a single agent. The dose-limiting toxicities as per BION modeling allowed the study to dose escalate.
A copy of the poster is available at Escend Pharmaceuticals' website
