Among patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib led to significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy. Full phase 3 RASolute 302 trial results: https://t.co/xwLWBZYRzq

DDX41 may be the most common inherited AML/MDS predisposition syndrome… yet many cases are likely missed.
Think:
• older AML/MDS
• longstanding cytopenias
• normal karyotype
• subtle family history
Why it matters:
⚠️ donor selection
⚠️ family screening
⚠️ transplant decisions
Interestingly, DDX41 AML also appears highly venetoclax-sensitive with surprisingly favorable outcomes.

Daraxonrasib in PDAC now published in NEJM.
We have had press releases and presentations, but now a publication.
And yes, the data still look very real. 🧬
Pancreatic cancer is a RAS disease.
90% have activating RAS mutations.
G12D, G12V, G12R dominate.
And historically we have had essentially nothing direct to do about it (G12C inhibitors exist but they are a subpopulation).
Phase 1/2
Previously treated RAS-mutant PDAC
n=168
Oral RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor
Phase 3 dose: 300 mg daily
• ORR 35%
• mDoR 8.2 months
• mPFS 8.5 months
• mOS 13.1 months
As context; 2L chemo w/ PDAC has ORR <10% with OS ~5-7 months and significant side effects. So yes, this is huge.
Toxicity is real too:
• Any-grade TRAE 96%
• Grade ≥3 TRAE 30%
• Rash, diarrhea, nausea, mucositis, vomiting, fatigue
This is not a “write the script and see them in a month” drug.
Up-front oncoderm involvement is going to be critical. Rash needs to be anticipated, managed early, and dose modifications need to be normalized rather than viewed as failure.
BUT this is a absolute game-changer in pancreas cancer (and other KRAS driven diseases).
Importantly, this no longer exists in a phase 1/2 vacuum.
By press release, RASolute 302 met its primary and key secondary endpoints, with PFS and OS benefit versus standard chemotherapy. Full data still matter, but the confirmatory study appears to have confirmed the signal.
Terrible disease.
Great signal.
Real (but manageable) toxicity.
Practice-changing.
