CCM Biosciences Announces Presentation of Data on its First-In-Class AML Drug Program at ASCO 202520.5.2025 23:30:00 EEST | Press release
CCM Biosciences, a diversified pharmaceutical discovery and development company, today announced the upcoming presentation of its next-generation FLT3 inhibitor drug program for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at the 2025 Annual Conference of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), taking place May 30 to June 3 in Chicago. Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is the most severe form of leukemia with few treatment options, and a malignancy frequently driven by mutations in the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) gene. The FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) and tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) mutations, particularly D835 and F691, appear in approximately 30% of AML patients, often leading to poor prognosis and resistance to existing therapies. Gilteritinib (Xospata®; Astellas Pharma, peak annual sales projection: $1.5 billion) and Quizartinib (Vanflyta®; Daiichi Sankyo) are two FDA-approved FLT3 inhibitors, with the former approved only for relapsed/refractory AML and the latter approved o

NSCLC, which accounts for 80% of lung cancer, is the most common cause of cancer death worldwide.

Most patients treated by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) will eventually develop
