Daraxonrasib

Results support the clinical rationale for RASolve 301, an ongoing Phase 3 trial in RAS mutant metastatic non-small cell lung cancer REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Sept. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a global, commercial-stage oncology company dedicated to discovering, developing and delivering innovative medicines for patients with RAS-addicted cancers, today announced that The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has published a report describing data from the Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating RASONQUE (daraxonrasib), an oral, RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor, in patients with previously treated advanced RAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). “RAS mutations are among the most common oncogenic drivers in lung cancer, occurring in approximately 30 percent of cases. Targeted RAS inhibition has demonstrated clinical benefit in patients with RAS G12C non-small cell lung cancer following initial treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy, but there are no targeted therapies for patients with other RAS tumor mutations. The rates of objective response, disease control and survival observed in patients treated with RASONQUE in this Phase 1/2 study support the ongoing global, randomized pivotal RASolve 301 trial evaluating RASONQUE in previously treated RAS mutant non-small lung cancer. Together with the recent FDA approval of RASONQUE in metastatic pancreatic cancer, the data reported in the NEJM publication provide additional clinical validation of our broad RAS(ON) multi-selective and mutant-selective approach across major RAS-driven cancers,” said Alan Sandler, M.D., chief development officer of Revolution Medicines. The results published in NEJM are based on the Phase 1/2 RMC-6236-001 trial ( NCT05379985 ), with a July 21, 2025 data cut off. The trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of once-daily doses of RASONQUE 300 mg or less in 136 patients with second-line or later NSCLC with tumors carrying diverse RAS mutations other than RAS G12C, and whose disease had progressed following, or who were intolerant to, platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. RASONQUE demonstrated dose-dependent antitumor activity and exhibited a manageable safety pro the Phase 1/2 trial. Within the 160 mg to 220 mg dose group, a subgroup of 38 docetaxel-naïve patients had previously received first- or second-line platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. In this subgroup, the confirmed objective response rate was 42% (95% confidence interval [CI], 26%-59%) and a disease control rate of 89% (95% CI, 75%-97%). The median progression-free survival was 8.3 months (95% CI: 4.0-12.5) and median overall survival was 16.0 months (95% CI, 9.5-not estimable). At these dose levels, Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 25% of patients, most commonly rash (8%) and diarrhea (3%). No Grade 4 or Grade 5 TRAEs were reported within this dose range. ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(131); }); The results from this Phase 1/2 trial informed the design and initiation of RASolve 301 ( NCT06881784 ), the company’s ongoing global, randomized, open-label Phase 3 trial evaluating RASONQUE compared with docetaxel in patients with previously treated, locally advanced or metastatic RAS mutant NSCLC. RASONQUE is an investigational agent for the treatment of RAS mutant NSCLC. About Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and RAS Mutations Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80%-85% of all lung cancers, with more than 229,000 people diagnosed in the U.S. each year. 1,2 Despite treatment advancements, NSCLC remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, primarily due to its late-stage diagnosis and limited response to conventional therapies. RAS mutations are among the most common oncogenic drivers in NSCLC, occurring in approximately 30% of cases. 3 About RASONQUE™ (daraxonrasib) ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(132); }); RASONQUE is an oral, RAS(ON) multi-selective, noncovalent, tri-complex inhibitor, approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or who are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy. RASONQUE is designed to target cancers driven by a broad range of common RAS genotypes, including PDAC, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and colorectal cancer. It works by suppressing RAS signaling through inhibition of the interaction between both wild-type and mutant RAS(ON) proteins and their downstream effectors. RASONQUE is being advanced through a global Phase 3 registrational program in patients with PDAC and metastatic RAS mutant NSCLC. Outside the U.S., RASONQUE is an investigational agent that has not been approved by any regulatory authority. U.S. FDA APPROVED INDICATION ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(133); }); RASONQUE is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or who are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR U.S. APPROVED INDICATION RASONQUE is associated with the following Warnings and Precautions : Dermatologic and Soft Tissue Toxicity, Stomatitis and Oral Disorders, Diarrhea, Gastrointestinal Perforation, Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)/Pneumonitis, and Embryo-Fetal Toxicity. WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(134); }); Dermatologic and Soft Tissue Toxicity RASONQUE can cause dermatologic toxicity, which may be severe. Clinical manifestations included, but were not limited to, rash, pruritus, paronychia, dry skin, and skin fissures. In clinical trials of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, dermatologic toxicity occurred in 86% of patients treated with RASONQUE, of which 10% were Grade 3. Monitor patients who develop dermatologic or soft tissue toxicities while receiving RASONQUE. Initiate prophylactic measures (e.g., topical corticosteroids, emollient creams, sunscreen, oral antibiotics) prior to the first dose of RASONQUE to reduce the risk of moderate to severe dermatologic reactions. Advise patients to limit sun exposure while taking RASONQUE. Initiate supportive measures (e.g., oral corticosteroids) as clinically indicated, and consider dermatologic consultation. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue RASONQUE based on severity. Stomatitis and Oral Disorders ezstandalone.cmd.push(function () { ezstandalone.showAds(135); }); RASONQUE can cause stomatitis, including mouth ulcers and oral mucositis. In clinical trials of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, stomatitis occurred in 57% of patients, of which 9% were Grade 3. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of stomatitis while receiving RASONQUE. Initiate a steroid-containing mouthwash for treatment of stomatitis and administer other topical treatments (e.g., chlorhexidine mouthwash, 2% lidocaine viscous) as clinically indicated. Withhold, reduce the dose, or permanently discontinue RASONQUE based on severity. Diarrhea RASONQUE can cause diarrhea.

PEMBROKE PINES, Fla., Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Memorial Cancer Institute is the first cancer program in Broward County, Florida to obtain daraxonrasib, a drug representing one of the most significant breakthroughs in pancreatic cancer treatment in decades. This breakthrough treatment for pancreatic cancer has since received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Before the drug was commercially available, Memorial's physicians, research professionals, pharmacists, regulatory specialists, and clinical teams worked tirelessly to obtain daraxonrasib through the FDA's Expanded Access ("compassionate use") program, providing a patient access to this promising therapy. The FDA's approval of daraxonrasib, now marketed as Rasonque, provides a new treatment option for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer who previously had limited treatment options. Memorial's early access to the treatment reinforces Memorial Cancer Institute's commitment to ensuring South Florida patients have access to the newest and most promising cancer therapies as early as possible. The effort was led by Dr. Jesus Fabregas, who directs Memorial Cancer Institute's Gastrointestinal (GI) Malignancy Research Program, together with an expert multidisciplinary team dedicated to identifying every possible treatment opportunity for patients. "Whatever medicine we came up with wouldn't block the protein that allows cancer cells to grow out of control and now finally we're able to grab that angiogenic protein and shut it down," said Fabregas, "It's not a cure, but it's a big step for humanity. Patients live longer, have a better quality of life, less pain, and more happy times with family and friends". Russell Reed was diagnosed with Stage 2B pancreatic cancer in 2024 after returning home from vacation and experiencing persistent pain in his side. Following surgery and multiple rounds of chemotherapy, he became the first patient at Memorial Cancer Institute to receive daraxonrasib through the FDA's Expanded Access program in July 2026. The program provided him access to the treatment before it received FDA approval. offering renewed hope after conventional treatment options had been exhausted. "The hope is, and the anecdotal evidence out of all this is that when it shrinks the tumors the pain will go away, and I have noticed a slight decrease so far, so that's the hope and that's where the quality comes in," said Russell. According to Revolution Medicines, the manufacturer of the drug, in a 500-patient trial, the average patient lived 13 months compared with 6.6 months for those receiving chemotherapy. Memorial Cancer Institute continues to advance cancer care by expanding access to promising therapies through clinical trials, groundbreaking research and innovative treatment pathways. Through collaboration among physicians, researchers, pharmacists and clinical teams, the institute works to bring new treatment options to patients as early as possible.
