Repare Therapeutics Announces Positive Results of the Lunresertib and Camonsertib Combination from the MYTHIC Phase 1 Gynecologic Expansion Clinical Trial
Repare Therapeutics (RPTX) reported positive results from its MYTHIC Phase 1 gynecologic expansion trial combining lunresertib and camonsertib (Lunre+Camo). The trial showed a 25.9% overall response rate in endometrial cancer and 37.5% in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Nearly half of patients maintained progression-free survival at 24 weeks.
The study included heavily pretreated patients, with many receiving the treatment as fourth line or beyond. In endometrial cancer patients, 100% had prior platinum therapy and 77.8% received immune checkpoint inhibitors. For ovarian cancer patients, all were platinum-resistant or ineligible, with 45.8% having received prior PARP inhibitors.
The company plans to initiate a registrational Phase 3 trial for endometrial cancer in second half of 2025.
Repare Therapeutics (RPTX) ha riportato risultati positivi dal suo trial di espansione MYTHIC di Fase 1 che combina lunresertib e camonsertib (Lunre+Camo). Il trial ha mostrato un 25,9% di tasso complessivo di risposta nel carcinoma endometriale e 37,5% nel carcinoma ovarico resistente al platino. Quasi la metà dei pazienti ha mantenuto la sopravvivenza libera da progressione a 24 settimane.
Lo studio ha incluso pazienti fortemente già trattati, con molti che hanno ricevuto il trattamento come quarta linea o oltre. Nei pazienti con carcinoma endometriale, il 100% aveva ricevuto precedentemente terapia con platino e il 77,8% ha ricevuto inibitori del checkpoint immunitario. Per i pazienti con carcinoma ovarico, tutti erano resistenti al platino o non idonei, con il 45,8% che aveva ricevuto precedentemente inibitori PARP.
L'azienda prevede di avviare un trial registrativo di Fase 3 per il carcinoma endometriale nella seconda metà del 2025.

Casi la mitad de los pacientes mantuvieron la supervivencia libre de progresión a las 24 semanas.
El estudio incluyó pacientes que habían sido tratados en múltiples ocasiones, con muchos recibiendo el tratamiento como cuarta línea o más. En los pacientes con cáncer endometrial, el 100% había recibido terapia previa con platino y el 77,8% recibió inhibidores de punto de control inmunitario.

Repare Therapeutics (RPTX) berichtete über positive Ergebnisse aus seiner MYTHIC Phase 1 gynäkologischen Erweiterungsstudie, die lunresertib und camonsertib (Lunre+Camo) kombiniert. Die Studie zeigte eine 25,9%ige Gesamtansprechrate bei Endometriumkarzinom und 37,5% bei platinresistentem Eierstockkrebs. Fast die Hälfte der Patienten konnte 24 Wochen lang eine progressionsfreie Überlebenszeit aufrechterhalten.
In der Studie waren stark vorbehandelte Patienten eingeschlossen, wobei viele die Behandlung als vierte Linie oder darüber hinaus erhielten. Bei den Patienten mit Endometriumkarzinom hatten 100% eine vorherige Platintherapie erhalten und 77,8% erhielten Immun-Checkpoint-Inhibitoren. Für die Patienten mit Eierstockkrebs waren alle platinresistent oder nicht geeignet, wobei 45,8% zuvor PARP-Inhibitoren erhalten hatten.
Das Unternehmen plant, in der zweiten Jahreshälfte 2025 eine registrierungsrelevante Phase-3-Studie für Endometriumkarzinom zu starten.

Insights
The MYTHIC trial data demonstrates compelling clinical efficacy for the Lunre+Camo combination in both endometrial and platinum-resistant ovarian cancers. The 25.9% ORR in endometrial cancer and 37.5% ORR in PROC are particularly noteworthy given the heavily pretreated patient population. The durability of response, with nearly half of patients maintaining progression-free survival at 24 weeks, suggests meaningful clinical benefit. The biomarker-driven approach targeting specific mutations (CCNE1, FBXW7, PPP2R1A) shows promise in patient selection.
The safety profile appears manageable, with anemia being the primary concern at
This positive clinical data significantly strengthens Repare's market position in the gynecologic cancer space. The planned Phase 3 trial initiation in 2H 2025 provides a clear pathway to commercialization. With both FDA and EMA guidance secured, regulatory risks appear well-managed. The biomarker-driven approach could enable premium pricing if approved, particularly given the unmet need in these patient populations.

Lunresertib is a first-in-class precision oncology small molecule PKMYT1 inhibitor which targets cell cycle regulation in Lunre BM+ tumors (CCNE1 amplifications or FBXW7 or PPP2R1A deleterious alterations). Camonsertib is a potential best-in-class oral small molecule inhibitor of ATR, a critical component of the DNA damage response pathway.
“We are encouraged by the strong response and the clear benefit we observed in patients with endometrial and platinum-resistant ovarian cancers in the MYTHIC clinical trial,” said Lloyd M. Segal, President and Chief Executive Officer of Repare. “These patients need new treatment options and our results support the potential for Lunre+Camo to make a real, positive difference if approved, particularly as a chemotherapy alternative. We have positive feedback from regulatory agencies in both the US and
The MYTHIC clinical trial (NCT04855656) is a first-in-human, global, open-label Phase 1 dose-escalation clinical trial to evaluate safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of Lunre+Camo in patients with advanced solid tumors. As of the data cut-off date of November 14, 2024, 51 evaluable patients were enrolled in the gynecologic cancer expansion cohort of the MYTHIC trial.
Across all tumor types treated at the optimized RP2D (n=67), Lunre+Camo therapy demonstrated a favorable and differentiated tolerability profile when compared to current and emerging therapies. The most common adverse event was anemia (

“Those patients with recurrent gynecologic cancers have limited treatment options as tumors often become resistant to standard of care therapy,” said Brian Slomovitz, MD, MS, FACOG, Director, Gynecologic Oncology, Co-chair of the Cancer Research Center, Mount Sinai Medical Center. “They urgently need new treatment options. Repare’s differentiated, biomarker-driven approach addresses this population and may offer a solution. These data support the potential of Lunre+Camo as a new treatment option to fill this unmet need for patients with endometrial and platinum-resistant ovarian cancers.”
Repare has consulted with both the
“The results of the MYTHIC clinical trial increase our confidence in the potential to bring Lunre+Camo to patients living with this aggressive subset of recurrent endometrial cancer,” said Maria Koehler, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of Repare. “We are deeply grateful to the patients and investigators who participated in this trial, and we look forward to building on these promising data through the registrational clinical trials using Lunre+Camo as a potential new standard of care for those patients, if approved.”
