Menin inhibitors continue to show tremendous promise in AML w/ encouraging clinical activity as single agents and now in comb. w/ HMA’s + Ven in R/R AML w/ NPM1 or KMT2Ar. Great presentation by Ghayas Issa on SAVE trial. Hopeful these agents will make a huge impact in AML. #ASH23

Wonderful editorial by Dr Bernt on Barajas et al showing the latest addition to the “club”. Eytan and I have been brewing this trial for a while and it’s finally about to open: menin inhibition for the HOX-high club (including UBTF-TD based on this work) classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT06…

We’ve enrolled the first patient in a phase 2 clinical trial targeting minimal residual disease in #AML, hoping to prevent relapse by eliminating lingering cancer cells. #RadicalCollaboration Ghayas Issa MD Anderson Cancer Center

The first BTC trial to target AML MRD with combination of menin and BCL2 inhibition is now open! Huge team effort and more exciting trials for MRD to come. Goal is to better measure, understand and treat MRD
