In this video, Lindsay A.M. Rein, MD, discussed the Summit trial into treatment of systemic mastocytosis, data from which was presented at the ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition.
Rein, a hematologic oncologist at Duke Health, discussed the results of the 3-part phase 2 study, which examined treatment of nonadvanced systemic mastocytosis with bezuclastinib, an oral selective KIT D816V inhibitor, and which Rein said showed promising indications.
“I think the take home point is an exciting KIT inhibitor, with some suggestion of clinical activity and some preclinical data to support the fact that it doesn't cross the blood brain barrier, which is important,” Rein said.
