On June 29, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted approval of an investigational new drug application for the initiation of a phase Ia/b study on CG-806 for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

CG-806 is an oral FLT3/BTK inhibitor. It demonstrates potent inhibition of wild type and FLT3 mutant forms as well as non-covalent inhibition of the wild type and Cys481Ser mutant forms of the BTK enzyme in murine leukemia models. CG-806 is under investigation in patients with B-cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia and non-Hodgkin lymphomas, who are resistant/refractory or intolerant to current therapies.

The FDA has allowed the initiation of a clinical trial in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia at a starting dose of 450 mg, twice a day. The phase Ia/b study will start in the second half of 2020.
