Arcus Biosciences to Present New Data from Casdatifan, a HIF-2a Inhibitor, in an Oral Presentation at the 2025 ASCO GU Symposium
10 Février 2025 - 11:00PM
Business Wire
- New data from ARC-20, a Phase 1/1b study of the HIF-2a
inhibitor casdatifan in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC),
will be presented in a rapid oral session by Dr. Toni Choueiri,
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
- The presentation will include initial data from the 100mg
once-daily (QD) tablet cohort and updated data for the 50mg
twice-daily (BID) and 50mg QD cohorts
- Arcus will host a conference call to discuss the ARC-20 data at
5:00 AM PT / 8:00 AM ET on Tuesday, February 18, 2025
Arcus Biosciences, Inc. (NYSE:RCUS), a clinical-stage, global
biopharmaceutical company focused on developing differentiated
molecules and combination therapies for patients with cancer, today
announced that data from the ARC-20 study will be presented in a
rapid oral session at the 2025 American Society of Clinical
Oncology (ASCO) Genitourinary (GU) Cancers Symposium taking place
February 13 – 15, 2025, in San Francisco, CA.
The oral presentation will highlight safety and efficacy data
from three cohorts of ARC-20, which evaluated casdatifan
monotherapy in patients that had received both prior TKI and
anti-PD-1 therapy. The presentation will include initial data for
the 100mg QD tablet cohort, our selected dose and formulation for
Arcus’s Phase 3 studies, as well as updated data for the 50mg BID
and 50mg QD expansion cohorts of ARC-20.
“We look forward to presenting new data from our ARC-20 study
evaluating our HIF-2a inhibitor, casdatifan, in an oral
presentation at ASCO GU,” said Terry Rosen, Ph.D., chief executive
officer of Arcus. “The data to be shared support the
differentiation of casdatifan, across all key efficacy measures,
relative to published data from studies with HIF-2a inhibitors. We
are continuing to rapidly advance an extensive and robust
development program for casdatifan, including the planned
initiation of our first Phase 3 study (PEAK-1) in the first half of
this year, a clinical collaboration with AstraZeneca to evaluate
casdatifan in combination with volrustomig and the addition of new
cohorts to ARC-20 to evaluate casdatifan in the first-line setting.
We also look forward to presenting additional data from ARC-20
throughout the year.”

About Casdatifan (AB521)
Casdatifan is a small-molecule inhibitor of HIF-2a, a
transcription factor responsible for activating multiple tumor
growth pathways in hypoxic and pseudo-hypoxic tumor environments.
By selectively binding HIF-2a, casdatifan is designed to shut down
hypoxic oncogenesis, which blocks tumor growth and key oncogenic
pathways, leading to cancer cell death. Clear cell RCC (ccRCC) is
almost universally associated with HIF-2a dysregulation. Casdatifan
is currently being evaluated in ARC-20, a Phase 1/1b study in renal
cell carcinoma and other cancers.
Casdatifan is an investigational molecule. Approval from any
regulatory authority for its use has not been received, and its
safety and efficacy have not been established.
About RCC
According to the American Cancer Society, kidney cancer is among
the top 10 most commonly diagnosed forms of cancer among both men
and women in the U.S., and an estimated 81,600 Americans will be
diagnosed with kidney cancer in 2024. Clear cell RCC is the most
common type of kidney cancer in adults. If detected in its early
stages, the five-year survival rate for RCC is high; for patients
with advanced or late-stage metastatic RCC, however, the five-year
survival rate is only 15%. In 2022, approximately 32,200 patients
with advanced kidney cancer required systemic therapy in the U.S.,
with over 20,000 patients receiving first-line treatment.
