REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Dec. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a clinical-stage oncology company developing targeted therapies for RAS-addicted cancers, today announced key clinical updates from its RAS(ON) inhibitor portfolio. The data to be presented during an investor webcast today at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time (ET) will focus on updated clinical data from the Phase 1 RMC-6236 monotherapy study in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In addition, new clinical data will be provided from several combination studies, including those evaluating RMC-6236 with pembrolizumab, RMC-6291 with pembrolizumab, and the first-of-its-kind RAS(ON) inhibitor doublet combination of RMC-6291 and RMC-6236.
“Our mission is to revolutionize treatment for patients with RAS-addicted cancers, and our ongoing progress is supported by the clinical milestones we continue to achieve in patients with a range of RAS mutant tumor types, stages of disease and lines of therapy,” said Mark A. Goldsmith, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and chairman of Revolution Medicines. “We’ve now reported initial clinical validation of three differentiated RAS(ON) inhibitors, shown evidence of promising initial clinical activity and tolerability profiles in patients with three common, difficult-to-treat RAS-addicted tumors, and shared growing evidence of clinical impact delivered through three potential treatment paradigms – as monotherapy, in combination with pembrolizumab, and as RAS(ON) inhibitor doublets. With these compelling results, we are in a strong position to pursue an expansive set of late-stage development opportunities on behalf of patients with RAS-addicted cancers, beginning with the ongoing and pending pivotal trials.”
RMC-6236 Monotherapy Study
RMC-6236-001 is a multicenter, Phase 1/1b study designed to evaluate RMC-6236, a RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor, as monotherapy, in patients with advanced solid tumors. As of September 30, 2024, a total of 436 patients were treated across NSCLC (n=132) and PDAC and other solid tumors (n=304) cohorts. Patients were treated across a range of doses, from 10 mg to 400 mg once daily (QD).
PDAC Cohort
As an update to data reported at the EORTC-NCI-AACR (ENA) conference in October 2024, the company shared a new analysis of safety and activity data from the July 23, 2024 data cutoff date in patients with previously treated PDAC treated with a 300 mg QD dose, the same dose used in the ongoing RASolute 302 Phase 3 PDAC trial.
Key findings:
RASolute 302, the company’s randomized Phase 3 study of RMC-6236 versus standard of care chemotherapy in 2L patients with previously treated metastatic PDAC, is currently ongoing.
Next steps:
NSCLC Cohort
As an update from a smaller initial cohort reported at ESMO 2023, data from a September 30, 2024 data cutoff date were reported for 124 patients with previously treated RAS mutant NSCLC who received RMC-6236 at clinically active doses in the range of 120 mg to 300 mg QD.

RAS(ON) Inhibitor Combination Studies
RMC-6236 with Pembrolizumab
RMC-LUNG-101B is an arm of the Phase 1b study of RMC-6236 in combination with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, in patients with RAS mutant NSCLC. A total of 20 patients treated with RMC-6236 at 200 mg QD and pembrolizumab at the standard dose of 200 mg once every three weeks (Q3W) were evaluated as of an October 28, 2024 data cutoff date. The median duration of treatment for these patients was 2.3 months.
The combination of RMC-6236 with pembrolizumab was generally well tolerated and the safety profile was consistent with previously reported results for the individual agents. TRAEs of Grade 1 aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevation were reported in two patients (10%) and a TRAE of Grade 2 AST elevation was reported in one patient (5%). A TRAE of Grade 1 alanine transaminase (ALT) elevation was reported in one patient (5%) and a TRAE of Grade 3 ALT elevation was reported in one patient (5%). The mean dose intensity for RMC-6236 was 97%.
Next steps:
RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 RAS(ON) Inhibitor Doublet
RMC-6291-101 is a Phase 1b study of RMC-6291 in combination RMC-6236 in patients with RAS G12C mutant solid tumors. The study has evaluated RMC-6291 at doses of 100 mg or 200 mg BID and RMC-6236 at a dose range of 100 mg to 300 mg QD. As of an October 28, 2024 data cutoff date, 74 patients were evaluated for safety with a median duration of treatment of 2.3 months.
The combination of RMC-6291 with RMC-6236 was generally well tolerated across all dose levels evaluated. The most common TRAEs were rash and GI-related toxicities that were primarily Grade 1 or 2 in severity. No Grade 3 or higher TRAEs were observed in greater than 5% of patients. One Grade 4 TRAE of hypokalemia was associated with Grade 3 diarrhea. TRAEs leading to dose interruption or reduction occurred in 30% and 10% of patients, respectively. The mean dose intensities for RMC-6291 and RMC-6236 were 95% and 92%, respectively.
A subset of efficacy-evaluable patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) who were previously treated with a KRAS(OFF) G12C inhibitor was evaluated for antitumor activity on treatment with RMC-6291 with RMC-6236. As reference values, the company also reported that the ORR for patients with CRC treated with RMC-6236 monotherapy at a dose of 300 mg daily in the RMC-6236-001 study as of a data cutoff date of September 30, 2024 was 9%, and the ORR for patients with CRC previously treated with a KRAS(OFF) G12C inhibitor who were subsequently treated with RMC-6291 monotherapy at a dose of 200 mg twice daily in the RMC-6291-001 study as of a data cutoff date of October 28, 2024 was 0%. In the combination study, patients with CRC who were previously treated with a KRAS(OFF) G12C inhibitor and who received their first doses of the two study drugs at least 8 weeks prior to data cutoff were included in the analyses (n=12). The ORR was 25%, including one patient with an unconfirmed complete response, and the DCR was 92%. The median treatment duration was 2.3 months.
Next steps:
RMC-6291 with Pembrolizumab
RMC-LUNG-101A is an arm of the Phase 1b study of RMC-6291, a RAS(ON) G12C-selective inhibitor, in combination with pembrolizumab, with or without chemotherapy, in patients with RAS G12C mutant NSCLC. A total of 15 patients treated with RMC-6291 at 200 mg twice daily (BID) and pembrolizumab at the standard dose of 200 mg Q3W were evaluated as of an October 28, 2024 data cutoff date. As of this date, 47% of these patients had been on treatment for 60 days or more.
The combination of RMC-6291 with pembrolizumab was generally well tolerated and the safety profile was consistent with previously reported results for the individual agents. A TRAE of Grade 1 AST elevation was reported in one patient (7%) and a TRAE of Grade 1 ALT elevation was reported in one patient (7%). There were no TRAEs of Grade 2 or higher AST or ALT elevations reported. The mean dose intensity for RMC-6291 was 98%.
