[{"type":"text","content":"KT-333 demonstrated initial clinical proof of concept across multiple hematological malignancies, including complete responses in two patients with Hodgkin’s lymphoma Robust STAT3 knockdown and positive immunomodulatory effect achieved in blood and tumor KT-333 was well-tolerated with Phase 1 dose escalation ongoing and additional data expected in the second half of 2024 WATERTOWN, Mass., June 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kymera Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: KYMR), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company advancing a new class of small molecule medicines using targeted protein degradation (TPD), today shared new clinical data from its ongoing KT-333 Phase 1 trial. KT-333, a first-in-class, potent, highly selective, heterobifunctional small molecule degrader of STAT3, demonstrated antitumor responses in hematological malignancies with high unmet need, including relapsed/refractory classic Hodgkin’s lymphoma (cHL), cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), and NK-cell lymphoma, at doses that were well-tolerated. The data were presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Meeting, taking place from June 13-16, 2024, in Madrid, Spain. Results released in an EHA poster today include a data cut-off of June 3, 2024. “The complete responses we’ve shown in Hodgkin’s lymphoma demonstrate the transformative therapeutic potential of STAT3 degradation, with two heavily pretreated cHL patients in the KT-333 trial moving to potentially curative stem cell transplants after treatment,” said Jared Gollob, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Kymera Therapeutics. “We continue to be encouraged by the data generated in the ongoing Phase 1 trial showing clinical translation of our degrader’s profile across multiple hematological malignancies including cHL, CTCL and NK-cell lymphoma and the potential to improve patients’ lives. With dose escalation continuing, we look forward to completing the Phase 1 study and sharing the full data set later this year.” KT-333 Clinical Update The KT-333 Phase 1 clinical trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and clinical activity of KT-333 dosed weekly on 28-day cycles in adult patients with relapsed and/or refractory lymphomas, leukemias and solid tumors. The poster provides a clinical update as of June 3, 2024, from the ongoing KT-333 Phase 1 trial from 47 patients ...
