In today’s episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Harry P. Erba, MD, PhD, about the FDA approval of ziftomenib (Komzifti) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a susceptible NPM1 mutation who have no satisfactory alternative treatment options. Dr Erba is a professor of medicine in the Division of Hematologic Malignancies and Cellular Therapy in the Department of Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine, as well as director of the Leukemia Program and director of Phase I Development in Hematologic Malignancies. He is also a member of the Duke Cancer Institute in Durham, North Carolina.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Erba discussed the significance of this approval, key efficacy and safety findings from the pivotal phase 1/2 KOMET-001 trial (NCT04067336), and the role ziftomenib may play throughout the evolution of the AML treatment paradigm.
