Aptose (APTOF) Spotlights Tuspetinib Triplet with 90% CR/CRh, 78% MRD-Negative AML

The TUS+VEN+AZA therapy achieved 100% complete remission at 80 mg and 120 mg doses, showing efficacy across diverse AML mutations with favorable safety, Aptose reported.

  • On Dec. 06, 2025, Aptose Biosciences presented at the 67th ASH Annual Meeting that the TUS+VEN+AZA triplet achieved 100% CR/CRh at the 80 mg and 120 mg Tuspetinib cohorts and began the 160 mg dose with early responses.
  • The TUSCANY Phase 1/2 study tests TUS combined with VEN and AZA to target newly diagnosed AML patients ineligible for induction chemotherapy and overcome venetoclax resistance.
  • Early cohort results reveal 9 out of 10 evaluable patients responded, with MRD negativity at 78% by central flow cytometry and no dose-limiting toxicities across evaluable TUS dose levels.
  • Clinical follow-up showed two subjects who underwent stem cell transplantation both returned for TUS maintenance, supporting TUS use across diverse AML populations including adverse mutation subgroups.
  • Preliminary results at the 160 mg TUS dose cohort show early blast clearance and MRD-negativity, but formal responses were not included in poster data, and Aptose cautioned investors about forward-looking uncertainties.
