Black Diamond Therapeutics Announces Upcoming Presentation at AACR Annual Meeting 2024

On March 5, 2024 Black Diamond Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BDTX), a clinical-stage oncology company developing MasterKey therapies that target families of oncogenic mutations in patients with cancer, reported an upcoming oral presentation at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) (Free AACR Whitepaper) Annual Meeting 2024, taking place April 5-10 in San Diego, California (Press release, Black Diamond Therapeutics, MAR 5, 2024, View Source [SID1234640771]). The presentation will describe real world data of the evolving EGFR mutation landscape in patients with NSCLC, highlighting the increasing relevance of "non-classical" EGFR mutations, which can be found in up to 30% of EGFRm NSCLC. The presentation will also describe the profile of BDTX-1535, an oral, brain-penetrant MasterKey inhibitor that selectively targets more than 50 oncogenic EGFR mutations.

About BDTX-1535
BDTX-1535 is an oral, brain-penetrant MasterKey inhibitor of oncogenic epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including classical driver mutations, families of non-classical driver mutations (e.g., L747P, L718Q), acquired resistance C797S mutation, and complex mutations. BDTX-1535 is a fourth-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that potently inhibits, based on preclinical data, more than 50 oncogenic EGFR mutations expressed across a diverse group of patients with NSCLC in multiple lines of therapy. Based on preclinical data, BDTX-1535 also inhibits EGFR extracellular domain mutations and alterations commonly expressed in glioblastoma (GBM) and avoids paradoxical activation observed with earlier generation reversible TKIs. A "window of opportunity" trial of BDTX-1535 in patients with GBM is ongoing (NCT06072586) and a Phase 2 trial is currently ongoing in patients with NSCLC (NCT05256290).
