Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. (SNTA) declared updates to its clinical program for Ganetespib, a next-generation inhibitor of the chaperone protein Hsp90. Ganetespib is presently being studied in several large, randomized studies, counting the Phase 3 GALAXY-2 trial in non-small cell lung cancer, in addition to a number of other investigator-sponsored studies in various malignancies, counting acute myeloid leukemia, breast cancer and ovarian cancer.

The Company declared recently that the first patient has been enrolled in the Phase 2 portion of the GANNET53 study, a randomized, pan-European study evaluating the combination of ganetespib and paclitaxel vs. paclitaxel alone in over 200 patients with metastatic, predominantly p53 mutant, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Enrollment in the Phase 2 portion follows the successful completion of Phase 1, the results of which were recently presented at the 2015 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting in Chicago. The Phase 1 data demonstrated that the combination of ganetespib 150 mg/m² with paclitaxel 80 mg/m² once weekly for 3 out of 4 weeks was generally well tolerated, with no dose limiting toxicities, and was therefore chosen for the randomized phase 2 trial. GANNET53 is sponsored by Innsbruck Medical University in Austria and funded by the European Commission.
