“We continue to make great progress in evaluating the combination of samuraciclib and fulvestrant with the dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2b study,” said Tim Pearson, Chief Executive Officer of Carrick Therapeutics. “There is a large unmet need in treatment for women with HR+, HER2- breast cancer, which represents more than two thirds of all new female breast cancer cases. We previously announced data from a single-arm Ph2a study with this combination therapy that demonstrated both clinical activity and tolerability. As such, we are encouraged by the potential of samuraciclib to be a first and best-in-class treatment for women with advanced breast cancer.”
