About OJEMDA™

OJEMDA (tovorafenib) is a Type II RAF kinase inhibitor of mutant BRAF V600, wild-type BRAF, and wild-type CRAF kinases.

 

OJEMDA is indicated for the treatment of patients 6 months of age and older with relapsed or refractory pediatric low-grade glioma (LGG) harboring a BRAF fusion or rearrangement, or BRAF V600 mutation. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate and duration of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s).

 

Tovorafenib is under evaluation as a therapy for patients with pLGG requiring front-line treatment (Phase 3 FIREFLY-2/LOGGIC). It is also being studied in combination with the MEK inhibitor pimasertib for adolescent and adult patient populations with recurrent or progressive solid tumors with MAPK pathway alterations (FIRELIGHT-1).

 

---

Tovorafenib was granted Breakthrough Therapy and Rare Pediatric Disease designations by the FDA for the treatment of patients with pLGG harboring an activating RAF alteration, and it was evaluated by the FDA under priority review. Tovorafenib has also received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for the treatment of malignant glioma and from the European Commission for the treatment of glioma.

Pediatric Low-Grade Glioma: The Most Common Type Of Brain Tumor In Children pLGGs are chronic and relentless, with patients suffering profound tumor and treatment-associated morbidity that can impact their life trajectory over the long term1 A Serious and Life-Threatening Disease For the majority of pLGG patients in the relapsed setting, there is no standard of care and no approved therapies Up to 75% of pLGGs have a BRAF alteration*, of those ~80% are BRAF fusions and ~20% are BRAF V600 mutations2-6 Despite surgery playing a significant role in treatment, the vast majority of patients still require systemic therapy7,8 Due to high rate of disease recurrence, most patients will undergo multiple lines of systemic therapy over the course of their disease *Incidence of BRAF alterations varies across pLGG subtypes. 1 Sievert AJ, Fisher MJ.

Pimasertib: Investigational Allosteric MEK1/2 Inhibitor With Demonstrated Activity In MAPK-Driven Solid Tumors Pimasertib is an investigational orally-bioavailable, selective, non-competitive MEK1/2 inhibitor in-licensed from Merck KGaA in February 2021 Extensive non-clinical and clinical development work through Phase 2, including a solid tumor trial in Japan and combinations with other MOAs Main AEs typical for all in-class allosteric MEK inhibitors (GI, CPK elevation, skin rash, visual disturbances) Nearly three-fold higher CNS penetration than other MEKi inhibitors (trametinib or selumetinib) Pimasertib showed monotherapy clinical activity, including an improvement in median PFS versus dacarbazine in NRAS mutant melanoma Combination with tovorafenib and other targeted therapies may unlock the full value of pimasertib in advanced solid tumors Sources: Pimasertib Investigator Brochure, v12, 2019; de Gooijer et al., Int J Cancer, 2018; Shaw et al., AACR LB-456, 2012; Lebbe et al., Cancers, 2020.

Tovorafenib Inhibits Both BRAF Fusions And BRAF V600 Mutations Tovorafenib is an investigational, oral, selective, CNS-penetrant, type II RAF inhibitor that was designed to inhibit both monomeric and dimeric RAF kinase Activity in tumors driven by both RAF fusions and BRAF V600E mutations Tablet and pediatric-friendly liquid suspension Once weekly dosing Currently approved type I BRAF inhibitors are indicated for use in patients with tumors bearing BRAF V600 mutations Type I BRAF inhibitors cause paradoxical MAPK activation in the setting of wild-type RAF, increasing the risk of tumor growth in BRAF fusion-driven Source: 1.
