[{"type":"text","content":"CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Black Diamond Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BDTX), a clinical-stage oncology company developing MasterKey therapies that target families of oncogenic mutations in patients with cancer, today announced forthcoming presentations during the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting, taking place May 31 – June 4 in Chicago, IL. The two poster presentations describe data for BDTX-1535 in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) across two clinical trials: a Phase 1 dose escalation trial, for which topline data were released in December 2023, and a Phase 0/1 “trigger” (“window of opportunity”) trial conducted as an Investigator Sponsored Trial at the Ivy Brain Tumor Center (NCT06072586). Presentation details are as follows: Title: Phase 1 Study of BDTX-1535, an Oral 4th Generation Covalent EGFR Inhibitor, in Patients with Recurrent Glioblastoma: Preliminary Dose Escalation ResultsSpeaker/Author: Dr. Patrick Wen, Dana Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical SchoolDate and Time: Saturday, June 1, 2024, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM CDTAbstract: 2068Poster: #367 Title: A Phase 0/1 ‘Trigger’ Trial of BDTX-1535 in Recurrent High-Grade Glioma (HGG) Patients with EGFR Alterations or Fusions Speaker/Author: Yoshie Umemura, MD, BS, Ivy Brain Tumor Center and Barrow Neurological Institute Date and Time: Saturday, June 1, 2024, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM CDT Abstract: 2069 Poster: #368 Posters will become available on June 1, 2024 at 10:00 AM EDT on the Black Diamond Therapeutics website here. About BDTX-1535BDTX-1535 is an oral, brain-penetrant MasterKey inhibitor of oncogenic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including classical driver mutations, non-classical driver mutations, and the acquired resistance C797S mutation. BDTX-1535 is a fourth-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that potently inhibits, based on preclinical data, more than 50 oncogenic EGFR mutations expressed across a diverse group of patients with NSCLC in multiple lines of therapy. Based on preclinical data, BDTX-1535 also inhibits EGFR extracellular domain mutations and alterations commonly expressed in glioblastoma (GBM) and avoids paradoxical activation observed with earlier generation reversible TKIs. A “window of opportunity” trial of BDTX-1535 in patients with GBM is ongoing (NCT06072586)...
