AB Science halts three non-priority masitinib clinical trials to focus on AML, ALS programs
  • AB Science halted three non-priority masitinib trials to concentrate resources on AB8939 in acute myeloid leukemia and masitinib in ALS.
  • The discontinued studies covered mast cell activation syndrome, mastocytosis, and progressive multiple sclerosis; the decision was not driven by masitinib safety.
  • AB8939 program completed step 3 of its phase 1 combo study with venetoclax; the next step seeks clearance to start triple therapy with azacitidine.
  • The phase 3 masitinib trial in ALS, authorized in 2025 but not started, will be revised before a restart request is filed.
