Read the transcript
Older adults with acute myeloid leukemia often get two drugs, azacitidine and venetoclax. Remissions come, but many fade, especially with a TP53 mutation.
The idea: add a third drug that carries a bacterial toxin straight into leukemia cells.
Tagraxofusp is interleukin-3, a growth signal these cells crave, fused to diphtheria toxin. Cells carrying the CD123 receptor pull it in and die. It is already approved for a rare leukemia. In the lab, azacitidine re-sensitized resistant cells and left them leaning on BCL-2, venetoclax's target.
In fifty-six adults, the triplet was tolerable; in untreated high-risk AML, sixty-nine percent responded, including half of those with TP53 mutations.
Andrew Lane leads it at Dana-Farber, with City of Hope and MD Anderson. Public record; not medical advice.
