Curis will present three posters at the ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) conference providing key information supporting development of fimepinostat in patients with DLBCL, including patients with MYC-alterations, and CA-4948, Curis’s IRAK4 inhibitor, for patients with lymphomas. A pooled analysis of R/R DLBCL patients treated with fimepinostat demonstrates adequate safety and anti-tumor activity supporting the biologic rationale for continued development of fimepinostat in this patient population. Additionally, Curis will present preclinical data and biological rationale that support CA-4948 development in patients with tumors sensitive to the IRAK4 signaling pathway as well as data supporting the potential for IRAK4-based combination regimens to overcome drug tolerance in patients with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Details of these presentations are as follows:
