The floor rewrote the question from “how long can G12C monotherapy last” to “who first makes first-line pancreatic cancer a standard.” daraxonrasib’s Phase 3 is still the only RAS-inhibitor overall-survival win.

    FDA Approves Revolution Medicines' Daraxonrasib for Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Ahead of Schedule

    The FDA approved Revolution Medicines' daraxonrasib (RMC-6236, brand name Rasonque) on August 26 for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or are not suited to multiple systemic therapies. The oral RAS(ON) multi-selective non-covalent inhibitor blocks interactions between wild-type and mutant RAS(ON) proteins and downstream effectors, and the FDA said the approval came 6.5 months ahead of schedule.

    Why it matters: First RAS(ON) inhibitor approval worldwide, granted early for a hard-to-treat cancer.

    FDA Approves Daraxonrasib, First RAS(ON) Inhibitor, for Pretreated Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

    The US FDA has approved Revolution Medicines' pan-RAS inhibitor daraxonrasib, brand name Rasonque, for previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer (PDAC). The drug, the company's lead pipeline asset and the first RAS(ON) inhibitor approved worldwide, is active against G12, G13, Q61 and wild-type RAS. Late-stage trials are already underway in first-line, second-line and adjuvant pancreatic cancer settings.

    Why it matters: First global approval of a RAS(ON) inhibitor class covers a hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer population.

    FDA Grants Early Approval to Revolution Medicines' RAS(ON) Inhibitor Daraxonrasib for Pancreatic Cancer

    The FDA approved Revolution Medicines' Rasonque (daraxonrasib), the first RAS(ON) inhibitor to reach the market, on August 26, months ahead of expectation. The once-daily tablet targets multiple forms of RAS protein, a key driver of tumor growth in most pancreatic cancer patients, and offers a new treatment option for the most common form of advanced pancreatic cancer, which arises from cells lining the pancreatic ducts.

    Why it matters: First-ever RAS(ON) inhibitor approval, ahead of schedule, for a common pancreatic cancer setting.

    FDA Approves Revolution Medicines' RAS Inhibitor Rasonque for Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

    The FDA approved Revolution Medicines' first-in-class RAS inhibitor Rasonque (daraxonrasib) on August 26 for adults with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or are not suited for multi-drug systemic treatment. It is the first RAS-targeted therapy for the most common type of pancreatic cancer. The drug was reviewed under the FDA commissioner's national priority voucher pilot programme, and approval came one month after the application was accepted, 6.5 months ahead of the PDUFA goal date.

    Why it matters: First RAS-targeted therapy approved for metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, reviewed 6.5 months early.

    RevMed’s RAS inhibitor gains landmark FDA approval for pancreatic cancer

    The US FDA has approved Revolution Medicines' daraxonrasib (Rasonque) for pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients who have received at least one prior systemic therapy or are not eligible for multiagent systemic therapy. It is the first broadly active RAS-targeted inhibitor to reach market, unlike the KRAS G12C-specific inhibitors sotorasib (Lumakras) and adagrasib (Krazati), which are approved only in NSCLC and colorectal cancer subsets.

    Why it matters: First approval of a broadly active RAS inhibitor, in a hard-to-treat pancreatic cancer setting.

    RevMed’s first-in-class pancreatic therapy among fastest CNPV approvals

    FDA approved Revolution Medicines' daraxonrasib (Rasonque) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, making it the first targeted therapy in the new RAS(ON) inhibitor class and the first new cancer drug cleared under the commissioner's national priority review voucher initiative. Revolution Medicines (NASDAQ:RVMD) is launching the drug immediately at a WAC of $39,800 for a 30-day supply.

    Why it matters: First approval in a new drug class and first under FDA's new priority voucher programme, priced at launch.

    STAT+: FDA approves new pancreatic cancer drug expected to usher in new era of treatment

    The FDA has approved Revolution Medicines' Rasonque (daraxonrasib) as a second-line treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer, making it the first drug to target a genetic cause of the disease. In the pivotal trial supporting approval, the Rasonque arm achieved a median overall survival of 13.2 months versus 6.7 months with standard chemotherapy. Andrew Ko, a gastrointestinal oncology specialist at UCSF, called it the biggest advance in pancreatic cancer treatment in decades.

    Why it matters: The report gives second-line median overall survival of 13.2 versus 6.7 months, letting readers gauge the gain over standard chemotherapy.

    FDA greenlights Revolution Medicines' pancreatic cancer gamechanger

    The FDA has approved Revolution Medicines' Ras inhibitor daraxonrasib for metastatic pancreatic cancer. The decision follows data presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting in May. Daraxonrasib targets Ras in a disease setting with limited options.

    Why it matters: FDA approval of a new Ras inhibitor for metastatic pancreatic cancer matters to clinicians and industry readers.

    FDA greenlights Revolution Medicines' pancreatic cancer gamechanger

    FDA has approved Revolution Medicines' Ras inhibitor daraxonrasib for metastatic pancreatic cancer. The approval is based on clinical data that drew a standing ovation at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) annual meeting in May.

    Why it matters: FDA approval based on standing-ovation data at ASCO in May provides regulatory backing for Ras inhibitors in pancreatic cancer.

    FDA Approves First in Class Targeted Therapy for Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer

    The FDA approved Revolution Medicines' Rasonque (daraxonrasib), a once-daily RAS inhibitor, for adults with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who have had at least one prior systemic therapy or are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy. In a 500-patient randomized trial, Rasonque improved median overall survival to 13.2 months versus 6.7 months on standard chemotherapy. The approval came 6.5 months ahead of the user fee deadline, under Breakthrough Therapy, Orphan Drug and Priority Review designations and the National Priority Voucher pilot program.

    Why it matters: First-in-class RAS inhibitor approval gives a survival benefit in metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, a high-mortality cancer with few options.
