Calithera Biosciences to Present New Data on Two Oncology Programs at ESMO Congress 2019

The late-breaking abstract (#LBA54) titled, “ENTRATA: Randomized, double-blind, phase 2 study of telaglenastat (CB-839) + everolimus vs. placebo + everolimus in patients with advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC),” has been selected for oral presentation as part of a session titled, “Proffered Paper 1-Genitourinary tumors, non-prostate” on September 28, 2019, at 8:30 a.m. CET in Barcelona Auditorium (Hall 2). The oral presentation will be led by Chung-Han Lee of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY.

“We look forward to presenting data from the ENTRATA trial, for which positive topline results were announced earlier this year, as well as new data from our clinical program partnered with Incyte that is evaluating the arginase inhibitor INCB001158 in solid tumors,” said Susan Molineaux, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer at Calithera. “We remain committed to advancing our robust pipeline, including our lead compound telaglenastat for which the registrational CANTATA trial in RCC is underway and expected to readout in the second half of 2020.”
