Frequently asked questions about cemsidomide

What is cemsidomide used for?

Cemsidomide is an investigational small molecule being studied for multiple myeloma, including relapsed or refractory disease. It is in Phase 2 clinical development in oncology and is being evaluated both as a combination partner with dexamethasone and with elranatamab in patients whose disease has returned or stopped responding to prior therapy.

What does cemsidomide target?

Cemsidomide targets IKZF1 and IKZF3, transcription factors degraded through the cereblon pathway. It belongs to the -domide class of cereblon-binding agents. By engaging cereblon, the drug is designed to promote degradation of these IKZF1/3 proteins, a mechanism under study in multiple myeloma.

Who is developing cemsidomide?

Cemsidomide is being developed by C4 Therapeutics, Inc., which trades on Nasdaq under the ticker CCCC. The company is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating the drug in multiple myeloma, including combination studies with dexamethasone and with elranatamab.

What phase is cemsidomide in?

Cemsidomide is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is investigational and is being studied in multiple myeloma; the Phase 2 study evaluates cemsidomide plus dexamethasone in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, and additional Phase 1 studies are also ongoing.

What clinical trials is cemsidomide in?

Cemsidomide is in three registered trials. NCT07284758 is a recruiting Phase 2 study of cemsidomide plus dexamethasone in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma across the US and Europe. NCT07280013 is a recruiting Phase 1 study combining cemsidomide with elranatamab. NCT04756726 is a Phase 1 study in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or multiple myeloma that is active but not recruiting.

Is cemsidomide the same as CFT7455?

Yes. Cemsidomide is also known as CFT7455, and the earlier Phase 1 trial in relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or multiple myeloma was registered under the CFT7455 name as NCT04756726. Searches for either name refer to the same investigational IKZF1/3-targeting compound from C4 Therapeutics.
