Clinical trial club | Navtemadlin vs best available therapy in relapsed or refractory myelofibrosis

On July 19, 2022, Scientific Education Support held its first clinical trial club, entitled “BOREAS trial: Navtemadlin (KRT-232) vs best available therapy in relapsed/refractory MF.” This live webinar was part of the MPN Hub Clinical Trial Club webinar series, entitled “Novel agents for the treatment of advanced myelofibrosis.”

The live webinar aimed to discuss the phase II and phase III navtemadlin clinical trials (NCT03662126), investigating navtemadlin, a murine double minute 2 (MDM2) inhibitor, in patients with myelofibrosis (MF) who relapse on, or are refractory to, Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. The event was chaired by Laura Michaelis, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, US, and presented by the trial investigator Haifa Kathrin Al-Ali, University Hospital Halle (Saale), Halle, DE.

During the webinar, Haifa Kathrin Al-Ali talked about MDM2 inhibition in MF, and presented safety and efficacy data from the phase II trial. Subsequently, the two speakers discussed what these findings, and the ongoing randomized controlled phase III BOREAS trial, mean for clinical practice, which was followed by a live Q&A session.
