Can a menin-blocking drug outsmart stubborn leukemia?
NCT ID NCT07722312
First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial is testing an experimental drug called S243249, which blocks a protein called menin, in people whose acute leukemia has come back or not responded to standard treatment. The study focuses on patients with specific genetic changes (KMT2A or NUP98 translocations, or NPM1c mutation). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or eliminate the cancer.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an experimental menin inhibitor drug called S243249
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with hard-to-treat acute leukemias that have specific genetic changes.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with a small number of participants, so the drug may not prove effective or may cause significant side effects.
