Aadi Bioscience Presents New Subgroup Analysis of Patients with Advanced Malignant PEComa of Gynecologic Origin Treated with nab-Sirolimus at Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO)
Subgroup experienced efficacy and safety consistent with overall study population
Advanced malignant PEComa tumors of gynecologic origin accounted for more than half of the evaluable patients enrolled in AMPECT
Additional data presented highlight nab-sirolimus as potential approach for mTOR-driven gynecologic cancers
LOS ANGELES, March 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Aadi Bioscience, Inc. (NASDAQ:AADI), a commercial-stage precision oncology company focused on developing and commercializing therapies for cancers with alterations in the mTOR pathway, today announced patients in the AMPECT trial whose malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) had gynecologic origins experienced efficacy and safety consistent with the overall study population. The AMPECT trial formed the basis for the FDA approval of the company's nab-sirolimus, FYARRO®, for advanced malignant PEComa regardless of mutational status. This new subgroup analysis will be presented during an oral plenary at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) Annual Meeting in San Diego, CA on March 17, 2024.
"In AMPECT, advanced malignant PEComa tumors originating from uterine, ovarian, pelvic or retroperitoneal sites had a response to nab-sirolimus consistent with that of the full study population, including overall response rate, onset and duration of tumor response," said Thomas J. Herzog, MD, Deputy Director, University of Cincinnati Cancer Center. "Malignant PEComa tumors of gynecologic or retroperitoneal origin accounted for more than half of the evaluable patients enrolled, offering important insights into this population and reinforcing the need for awareness and understanding of this rare but aggressive cancer among the gynecologic oncologist community."
Oral plenary presentation details and study highlights include:
Title: "Response to Treatment with nab-Sirolimus in Patients with Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Sarcoma (PEComa) of Gynecologic or Retroperitoneal Origin: Subgroup Analysis from AMPECT"
Presenting Author: Thomas J. Herzog, MD
Session Title: Focused Plenary V: Rare Care: Updates in Uncommon Cancers
Location: Ballroom 20CD
Date/Time: Sunday, March 17, 2024 – 1:45 PM to 2:45 PM
- Of the 31 patients enrolled in AMPECT, 16 had malignant PEComas originating from uterine, ovarian, pelvic or retroperitoneal sites
- Overall response rate to nab-sirolimus for the subgroup was 37.5% (6/16), consistent with the overall AMPECT population
- Subgroup responses were rapid and durable, with 1.4 months median time to response and 36.2 months median duration of response
- Safety profile of the subgroup was manageable and consistent with the overall AMPECT population
Additional data presented at SGO further highlight nab-sirolimus as a potential approach for mTOR-driven gynecologic cancers. These presentations include a real-world study characterizing TSC1 and TSC2 inactivating alterations in patients with advanced gynecologic cancers; trial-in-progress updates for the ongoing, tumor agnostic, registration-intended PRECISION1 trial; and a Phase 2 study of nab-sirolimus in combination with letrozole for advanced or recurrent endometrioid-type endometrial cancer (EEC).
"Overactivation of the mTOR pathway has been implicated in gynecological cancers," said Loretta Itri, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Aadi. "nab-Sirolimus is a nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab) mTOR inhibitor under investigation in TSC1- and TSC2-mutated tumors as well as other mTOR-driven tumors. We are diligently continuing to explore the potential of nab-sirolimus for this patient community in need of new therapies."

About Aadi Bioscience
Aadi is a commercial-stage precision oncology company focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for cancers with alterations in the mTOR pathway, a key regulator of cell growth and cancer progression. To unlock the full potential of mTOR inhibition, Aadi uniquely combines nanoparticle albumin-bound (nab) technology with the potent mTOR inhibitor, sirolimus. Aadi received FDA approval and commercializes FYARRO® for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic malignant perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa).
Aadi is exploring nab-sirolimus in PRECISION1, a Phase 2 tumor-agnostic registration-intended trial in mTOR inhibitor-naïve malignant solid tumors harboring TSC1 or TSC2 inactivating alterations. Aadi is also exploring nab-sirolimus in two single-indication Phase 2 trials for difficult-to-treat mTOR-driven cancers: neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), and advanced or recurrent endometrioid-type endometrial cancer (EEC) in combination with letrozole.
