The phase II VALENTINE-PTCL01 trial (NCT04703192) is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm trial of valemetostat, a dual EZH2/EZH1 inhibitor, evaluating the efficacy and safety of valemetostat in patients with R/R PTCL. Results from the trial were published in The Lancet Oncology by Zinzani et al.1 Overall, 133 patients received valemetostat 200 mg/day in 28-day cycles until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity; the primary efficacy endpoint was ORR.1 |
Key learnings |
With a median follow-up of 12.3 months, ORR was 44% (CR was 14%; PR was 29%). |
The median DoR was 11.9 months; median PFS was 5.5 months, and the median OS was 17 months. |
The most common Grade 3−4 AEs reported were thrombocytopenia (23%), anemia (19%), and neutropenia (17%). Serious TEAEs were reported in 40% of patients with PTCL; 7% of them were treatment related. No treatment-related deaths were reported. |
Overall, promising efficacy and safety data from the VALENTINE-PTCL01 study suggests that valemetostat could be a viable treatment option for patients with R/R PTCL. |
