Today, we shared an update on our RAMP 203 trial being conducted in collaboration with Amgen to evaluate the investigational combination of avutometinib and sotorasib with or without defactinib for KRAS G12C mutant non-small cell lung cancer. Preliminary data for the triplet combination looks encouraging and we look forward to evaluating its safety and efficacy as enrollment continues. We plan to share an interim update at a medical meeting in the second half of 2025. #VerastemOnc #LungCancer #RAS Read more in our press release: https://lnkd.in/eEXaQMr6

Today marks the 10th anniversary of #WorldPancreaticCancerDay. Over the past decade, progress has been made in understanding this often-deadly disease and researching novel treatment approaches. With more than 90% of pancreatic cancers harboring a KRAS mutation, we’re researching innovative ways to target the RAS/MAPK-pathway and other resistance mechanisms to improve outcomes for patients with pancreatic cancer. There is more work to do, and we are committed to advancing research and improving outcomes for those impacted by pancreatic cancer.

Today, we’re reporting our Q3 financial results and recent business progress, including completing our rolling NDA submission of our investigational combination of avutometinib plus defactinib for patients with recurrent KRAS mutant LGSOC. With a potential FDA approval next year, we’re also continuing our U.S. commercial launch preparations targeted for mid-2025. As we look ahead to the rest of the fourth quarter, we’re are working on advancing programs in our pipeline, including preparing a U.S. IND application for VS-7375/GFH375, an oral KRAS G12D (ON/OFF) inhibitor. #VerastemOnc #LGSOC #FDA #G12D https://lnkd.in/e9GHYP5G

It is a common misconception that only people who smoke get lung cancer. It is estimated that 65% of new lung cancer diagnoses occur in people who have no smoking history or are former smokers. We need your help this #LungCancerAwarenessMonth to share the facts with your community. Let friends and family know #AnyoneWithLungs can get lung cancer. Get started by visiting lungevity.org/lcam to spread awareness throughout November. #LCAM #lcsm #lungcancer #transforminglungcancer
