ArmTypeDescription
OLUVENAZA Treatment GroupEXPERIMENTALParticipants in this group will receive combination treatment of Olutasidenib, Venetoclax and Azacitidine orally for up to 12 cycles, each cycle lasting 28 days. Total participation duration is about 14 months
Olutasidenib and AzacitidineEXPERIMENTALEach cycle will last for 28 days. Patients will receive olutasidenib 150 mg orally twice daily Day 1 through Day 28. After 3 cycles of olutasidenib, azacitidine 75 mg/m2 given on Day 1 through Day 7 may be added at the discretion of the treating investigator if the patient has not achieved a complete remission or for whom loss of response is suspected. Subjects with at least a PR after 6 cycles of treatment will continue treatment.. Subjects without at least a PR after 6 cycles of treatment will move to long term follow up.
Stratum AEXPERIMENTALPatients with localized, intracranial, non-pontine, and non-thalamic IDH 1 mutant Astrocytoma, CNS WHO Grade 3.
Stratum BEXPERIMENTALPatients with localized, intracranial, non-pontine, and non-thalamic IDH 1 mutant Astrocytoma, CNS WHO Grade 4.

Frequently asked questions about Olutasidenib

What is olutasidenib?

Olutasidenib is an investigational small molecule IDH1 inhibitor being developed by Rigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ticker RIGL). It is in Phase 2 clinical development for IDH1-mutated cancers, including acute myeloid leukemia and high grade glioma. It is a targeted therapy that selects for patients whose tumors carry an IDH1 mutation.

What is olutasidenib used for?

Olutasidenib is being studied for IDH1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia and for high grade glioma, including astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma, diffuse midline glioma, and other IDH1-mutant brain tumors. It is also being tested in relapsed or refractory AML and in newly diagnosed AML, including combinations with venetoclax, azacitidine, and temozolomide.

What does olutasidenib target?

Olutasidenib targets mutant IDH1, the isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 enzyme. It acts as an IDH1 inhibitor, binding the mutated enzyme to block the abnormal metabolic activity driven by IDH1 mutations such as R132C, R132H, R132S, R132G, and R132L. This makes it a biomarker-selected therapy for tumors carrying those mutations.

Who makes olutasidenib?

Olutasidenib is developed by Rigel Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which trades on Nasdaq under the ticker RIGL. Rigel is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating olutasidenib as a single agent and in combination regimens for IDH1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia and high grade glioma.

What phase is olutasidenib in?

Olutasidenib is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational agent and has not been established as approved for the indications under study. The program includes Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials, with active studies in IDH1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia and in high grade glioma.

What clinical trials is olutasidenib in?

Olutasidenib is being studied in NCT07471841 in relapsed IDH1-mutated AML after venetoclax, NCT07130695 as single and combination therapy in IDH1-mutant AML after induction and consolidation, NCT06782542 with venetoclax and azacitidine in newly diagnosed IDH1-mutated AML, and NCT06161974 with temozolomide in high grade glioma.
