Abstract PR09: Phase 1 clinical safety and efficacy of ASN007, a novel oral ERK1/2 inhibitor, in patients with RAS, RAF or MEK mutant advanced solid tumors

Background: The oncogenic mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is dysregulated in a broad range of cancers through mutations in BRAF, KRAS, NRAS, HRAS and MEK1 genes. ASN007 is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of ERK1/2 kinases (IC50 1-2nM) with a very long target residence time (550 min). Preclinical studies show strong anti-tumor activity in multiple RAS mutant xenograft and PDX models, irrespective of mutation...
