Karyopharm Announces New Interim Phase 2 Selinexor Data in Myelofibrosis Selected for Oral Presentation at the American Society of Hematology 2021 Annual Meeting and Exposition

Rhea-AI Summary

Karyopharm Therapeutics (KPTI) announced new data from a Phase 2 study of selinexor, an oral SINE compound for myelofibrosis patients previously treated with JAK inhibitors. The study showed a 33% response rate, with significant spleen volume reduction and improved anemia status. Despite ruxolitinib's poor prognosis (14 months survival), selinexor demonstrated durable responses and a well-tolerated safety profile. Karyopharm plans to initiate a new Phase 2 study evaluating selinexor against physician's choice in late 2021. Results will be presented at the ASH 2021 meeting from December 11-14.

Positive

• 33% of patients showed a response in spleen volume reduction after 24 weeks.
• Durable responses observed with the first patient treated for over two years.
• Well-tolerated safety profile with manageable adverse events.

Negative

• Patients failing JAK inhibitors have an expected survival of only 14 months.
• The most common adverse event was weight loss, with one patient discontinuing treatment.

NEWTON, Mass., Nov. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq:KPTI), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, today announced that an abstract detailing new data from a Phase 2 study evaluating selinexor, a first-in-class, oral Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compound, in patients with myelofibrosis (MF) previously treated with JAK inhibition has been selected for an oral presentation at the upcoming American Society of Hematology (ASH) 2021 Annual Meeting and Exposition in Atlanta, GA on December 11-14, 2021.

"JAK inhibition is the current standard of care for patients with myelofibrosis; however, patients whose disease fails treatment with ruxolitinib have a poor prognosis, with an expected survival of approximately 14 months, and there are no approved treatment options other than JAK inhibitors," said Srinivas Tantravahi, MBBS, MRCP, University of Utah Hospital and principal investigator of the Phase 2 study. "Interim results from this Phase 2 study demonstrated that once weekly single agent oral selinexor resulted in compelling spleen volume reduction rates in myelofibrosis patients who received at least 24 weeks of treatment, with 33% of those patients achieving a response, defined as  ≥35% SVR. In addition to spleen responses, there was improvement in anemia status and symptom scores in these patients. The responses were durable with the first patient on treatment for more than two years. The sustained responses and well-tolerated safety profile highlight selinexor's potential in patients with myelofibrosis who have either progressed following ruxolitinib or cannot tolerate JAK inhibition. We look forward to sharing these exciting results with the broader medical and scientific community at ASH this year."

"Once weekly, low-dose selinexor is an oral agent with a unique mechanism of action that has demonstrated strong single-agent activity in myelofibrosis patients with disease refractory to ruxolitinib," said Jatin Shah, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Karyopharm. "Importantly, there are no other classes of drug approved other than JAK inhibitors and a new class of effective drugs is a critical need for patients. Based on these encouraging data, we look forward to dosing the first patient in a new, company-sponsored Phase 2 study evaluating single-agent selinexor versus physician's choice in patients with previously treated myelofibrosis during the fourth quarter of 2021."

Results from the Phase 2 Study Evaluating Selinexor in Patients with MF Refractory or Intolerant to JAK Inhibitors

The results were based on the open label, prospective, investigator-initiated single center study in adult patients with primary or secondary MF with resistance or intolerance to JAK inhibitor therapy (NCT03627403). Selinexor was administered orally at a dose of 80mg or 60mg once weekly to 12 patients. The primary endpoint of the study is to assess the efficacy of selinexor on SVR. Median duration of prior JAK inhibitor therapy was 22 months and 11 out of 12 patients had MF refractory to ruxolitinib.

As of the data cutoff, the median duration of treatment was 36 weeks. In the nine patients who were on treatment for over 24 weeks, SVR of ≥25% and 35% occurred in four (44%) and three (33%) patients, respectively. The most common treatment related adverse event was weight loss (grade 2 in four patients and grade 3 in one patient). This was manageable with treatment interruption and dose reduction, except in one patient who discontinued treatment. Overall, selinexor demonstrated single-agent activity with sustained spleen responses in patients with JAK inhibitor refractory MF and long-term administration of selinexor was well tolerated. Updated data will be presented at the meeting.

Company to Host Investor Day Event

Karyopharm will host an Investor Day event on Wednesday, December 8, 2021 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. ET to outline its commercial and pipeline priorities and objectives. The event will feature presentations from Karyopharm management and recognized thought leaders in multiple myeloma, gynecological malignancies, and other core focus indications. The event will take place virtually and will be accessible via conference call and webcast. Full details will be made available closer to the Investor Day.

About XPOVIO® (selinexor)

XPOVIO is a first-in-class, oral Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compound. XPOVIO functions by selectively binding to and inhibiting the nuclear export protein exportin 1 (XPO1, also called CRM1). XPOVIO blocks the nuclear export of tumor suppressor, growth regulatory and anti-inflammatory proteins, leading to accumulation of these proteins in the nucleus and enhancing their anti-cancer activity in the cell. The forced nuclear retention of these proteins can counteract a multitude of the oncogenic pathways that, unchecked, allow cancer cells with severe DNA damage to continue to grow and divide in an unrestrained fashion. Karyopharm received accelerated U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of XPOVIO in July 2019 in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least four prior therapies and whose disease is refractory to at least two proteasome inhibitors, at least two immunomodulatory agents, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. NEXPOVIO® (selinexor) has also been granted conditional marketing authorization for adult patients with heavily pretreated multiple myeloma by the European Commission. Karyopharm's supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) requesting an expansion of its indication to include the treatment for patients with multiple myeloma after at least one prior therapy was approved by the FDA on December 18, 2020. In June 2020, Karyopharm received accelerated FDA approval of XPOVIO for its second indication in adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), not otherwise specified, including DLBCL arising from follicular lymphoma, after at least 2 lines of systemic therapy. Selinexor is also being evaluated in several other mid-and later-phase clinical trials across multiple cancer indications, including as a potential backbone therapy in combination with approved myeloma therapies (STOMP) and in endometrial cancer (SIENDO), among others. Additional Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies are ongoing or currently planned, including multiple studies in combination with approved therapies in a variety of tumor types to further inform Karyopharm's clinical development priorities for selinexor. Additional clinical trial information for selinexor is available at www.clinicaltrials.gov.

In the STORM trial, fatal adverse reactions occurred in 9% of patients. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 58% of patients. Treatment discontinuation rate due to adverse reactions was 27%.
• The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥20%) in patients with DLBCL, excluding laboratory abnormalities, are fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, appetite decrease, weight decrease, constipation, vomiting, and pyrexia. Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities (≥15%) are thrombocytopenia, lymphopenia, neutropenia, anemia, and hyponatremia. In the SADAL trial, fatal adverse reactions occurred in 3.7% of patients within 30 days, and 5% of patients within 60 days of last treatment; the most frequent fatal adverse reactions was infection (4.5% of patients). Serious adverse reactions occurred in 46% of patients; the most frequent serious adverse reaction was infection (21% of patients).
