- Data spans eleven presentations across both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, providing added understanding of the potential benefit these therapies bring to patients
- ORSERDU data reinforce its key role in the treatment of ER+, HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer (mBC) tumors that harbor ESR1 mutations, while showing initial data from combination trials
- ELZONRIS presentation includes updated real-world data from patients with Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm
The Menarini Group ("Menarini"), a leading Italian pharmaceutical and diagnostics company, and Stemline Therapeutics, Inc. ("Stemline"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Menarini Group focused on bringing transformational oncology treatments to cancer patients, announced today that they will present new data related to ORSERDU(R) (elacestrant) and ELZONRIS(R) (tagraxofusp-erzs) in two upcoming congresses.
ORSERDU, a once-daily oral endocrine monotherapy, for the treatment of postmenopausal women or adult men, with ER+, HER2-, ESR1-mutated advanced or metastatic breast cancer with disease progression following at least one line of endocrine therapy, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in January 2023 under its priority review and fast track designation. In September 2023, ORSERDU was approved by the European Commission.
Updated data, including a spotlight discussion on additional biomarker and clinical subgroup analyses from the Phase 3 EMERALD trial, along with new safety updates evaluating elacestrant in multiple combination settings, will be presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS), December 5-9, 2023.
ELZONRIS was approved by the FDA in December 2018 for the treatment of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) in adult and pediatric patients two years and older, in both treatment-na?ve and previously-treated populations. In January 2021, ELZONRIS was approved by the European Commission. Updated data, including an oral presentation of updated real-world results in treatment-na?ve patients with BPDCN demonstrating durable outcomes and a manageable safety profile leading to prolonged survival, will be presented at the 65th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition in San Diego, December 9-12, 2023.
"The breadth of data on our novel oncology therapies, spanning solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, underscore our commitment to addressing significant unmet medical needs in difficult-to-treat cancers," said Elcin Barker Ergun, CEO of the Menarini Group. "At Menarini Stemline, we are dedicated to driving innovation in oncology to deliver targeted therapies that bring value to people living with cancer and to the healthcare providers who care for them."

About the EMERALD Phase 3 Study (NCT03778931)
The EMERALD Phase 3 trial is a randomized, open label, active-controlled study evaluating elacestrant as second- or third-line monotherapy in ER+, HER2- advanced/mBC patients. The study enrolled 478 patients who had received prior treatment with one or two lines of endocrine therapy, including a CDK4/6 inhibitor. Patients in the study were randomized to receive either elacestrant or the investigator's choice of an approved hormonal agent. The primary endpoints of the study were progression-free survival (PFS) in the overall patient population and in patients with estrogen receptor 1 gene (ESR1) mutations. In the group of patients whose tumors had ESR1 mutations, elacestrant achieved a median PFS of 3.8 months vs 1.9 months on the SOC, and reduced the risk of progression or death by 45% (PFS HR=0.55, 95% CI: 0.39, 0.77) vs SOC.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION, ELZONRIS(R)
Boxed WARNING: CAPILLARY LEAK SYNDROME
Warnings and Precautions
Capillary Leak Syndrome
Capillary leak syndrome (CLS), including life-threatening and fatal cases, has been reported among patients treated with ELZONRIS. In patients receiving ELZONRIS in clinical trials, the overall incidence of CLS was 53% (65/122), including Grade 1 or 2 in 43% (52/122) of patients, Grade 3 in 7% (8/122) of patients, Grade 4 in 1% (1/122) of patients, and four fatalities (3%). The median time to onset was 4 days (range - 1 to 46 days), and all but 5 patients experienced an event in Cycle 1.
Before initiating therapy with ELZONRIS, ensure that the patient has adequate cardiac function and serum albumin is greater than or equal to 3.2 g/dL. During treatment with ELZONRIS, monitor serum albumin levels prior to the initiation of each dose of ELZONRIS and as indicated clinically thereafter, and assess patients for other signs or symptoms of CLS, including weight gain, new onset or worsening edema, including pulmonary edema, hypotension or hemodynamic instability.
Hypersensitivity Reactions
ELZONRIS can cause severe hypersensitivity reactions. In patients receiving ELZONRIS in clinical trials, hypersensitivity reactions were reported in 43% (53/122) of patients treated with ELZONRIS and were Grade ? 3 in 7% (9/122). Manifestations of hypersensitivity reported in ? 5% of patients include rash, pruritus, and stomatitis. Monitor patients for hypersensitivity reactions during treatment with ELZONRIS. Interrupt ELZONRIS infusion and provide supportive care as needed if a hypersensitivity reaction should occur.
Hepatotoxicity
Treatment with ELZONRIS was associated with elevations in liver enzymes. In patients receiving ELZONRIS in clinical trials, elevations in ALT occurred in 79% (96/122) and elevations in AST occurred in 76% (93/122). Grade 3 ALT elevations were reported in 26% (32/122) of patients. Grade 3 AST elevations were reported in 30% (36/122) and Grade 4 AST elevations were reported in 3% (4/122) of patients. Elevated liver enzymes occurred in the majority of patients in Cycle 1 and were reversible following dose interruption.
Monitor alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) prior to each infusion with ELZONRIS. Withhold ELZONRIS temporarily if the transaminases rise to greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal and resume treatment upon normalization or when resolved.
Adverse Reactions
Most common adverse reactions (incidence ? 30%) are capillary leak syndrome, nausea, fatigue, pyrexia, peripheral edema, and weight increase. Most common laboratory abnormalities (incidence ? 50%) are decreases in albumin, platelets, hemoglobin, calcium, and sodium, and increases in glucose, ALT and AST.
