“These initial results provide encouraging support for the potential of voruciclib administered in combination with venetoclax to address a common resistance mechanism to venetoclax therapy and deliver improved clinical benefit to patients without significant myelosuppression,” said Dan Gold, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of MEI Pharma. “We look forward to disclosing more data from this study around year-end, including data from patients receiving higher doses of voruciclib plus venetoclax, to further evaluate the potential of the combination to safely provide synergistic benefit to patients.”
