These abstracts highlight the unique way that ONC201 engages the dopamine receptor, leading to downstream direct anti-tumor and immune oncology effects, which are especially pronounced in tumors with dopamine pathway dysregulation. These tumors include H3 K27M mutant high grade gliomas and other cancers, where ONC201 is now in advanced clinical trials.
Additionally, the abstracts showcase the continued preclinical advancement of other members of the imipridone family. ONC212 will be featured in an oral presentation highlighting its ability to treat aggressive leukemias as a single agent, and effectively synergize with other anti-leukemic agents, specifically BCL-2 inhibitors, due to its unique GPCR target. ONC206 demonstrates parallel characteristics with ONC201, while also being differentiated by a unique binding profile.
The abstracts are listed below and categorized by topic: ONC201 clinical translation; ONC201 preclinical single agent and combinatorial activity; and analogs (ONC206 and ONC212). All poster presentations will be in McCormick Place South, Exhibit Hall A, and the oral presentation of ONC212 will take place in Room S102 – McCormick Place South (Level 1) at the times described below.
