Nirogacestat, sold under the brand name Ogsiveo, is an anti-cancer medication used for the treatment of desmoid tumors.[1][2][3] It is a selective gamma secretase inhibitor[4] that is taken by mouth.[1]

The most common side effects include diarrhea, ovarian toxicity, rash, nausea, fatigue, stomatitis, headache, abdominal pain, cough, alopecia, upper respiratory tract infection and dyspnea.[2][3]

Nirogacestat was approved for medical use in the United States in November 2023.[2] It is the first medication approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of desmoid tumors.[2][5] The FDA considers it to be a first-in-class medication.[6]

Medical uses

[edit]

Nirogacestat is indicated for adults with progressing desmoid tumors who require systemic treatment.[1][2]

History

[edit]

The effectiveness of nirogacestat was evaluated in DeFi (NCT03785964), an international, multicenter, randomized (1:1), double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 142 adult participants with progressing desmoid tumors not amenable to surgery.[3] Participants were randomized to receive 150 milligrams (mg) of nirogacestat or placebo orally, twice daily, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.[2] The main efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (the length of time after the start of treatment for which a person is alive and their cancer does not grow or spread).[2] Objective response rate (a measure of tumor shrinkage) was an additional efficacy outcome measure.[2] The pivotal clinical trial demonstrated that nirogacestat provided clinically meaningful and statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival compared to placebo.[2] Additionally, the objective response rate was also statistically different between the two arms with a response rate of 41% in the nirogacestat arm and 8% in the placebo arm.[2] The progression-free survival results were also supported by an assessment of patient-reported pain favoring the nirogacestat arm.[2]

As of 2021, nirogacestat was in phase II clinical trials for unresectable desmoid tumors.[7][needs update] In addition, a phase III clinical trial, DeFi, was in progress for nirogacestat for adults with desmoid tumors and aggressive fibromatosis.[8] In addition, three trials were recruiting patients that include nirogacestat with other anticancer therapies in multiple myeloma, including the UNIVERSAL study for nirogacestat with the allogeneic CAR-T therapy ALLO-715.[9][10][11]

The FDA granted the application for nirogacestat priority review, fast track, breakthrough therapy, and orphan drug designations.[2][3] The FDA granted the approval of Ogsiveo to SpringWorks Therapeutics Inc.[2]

Society and culture

[edit]
[edit]

Nirogacestat was granted breakthrough therapy designation by the FDA in September 2019, for adults with progressive, unresectable, recurrent or refractory desmoid tumors or deep fibromatosis.[12]
