A phase 2 study of RVU120, a novel CDK8 inhibitor, in genetically defined cohorts of patients with AML and high-risk MDS

In August 2017, LLS TAP partnered with Ryvu Therapeutics (formerly known as Selvita) to support "A Phase Ib Study of SEL120 in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia or High-risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome."

Ryvu Therapeutics is a clinical-stage drug discovery and development company focusing on novel small molecule therapies that address emerging targets in oncology using a proprietary discovery engine platform.

RVU120 (SEL120) is a highly selective first-in-class CDK8/CDK19 small molecule inhibitor. Ryvu is currently enrolling several Phase 2 clinical trials, RVU120 as monotherapy in genetically defined cohorts of patients with relapsed/refractory AML and high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (RIVER-52, NCT06268574), and RVU120 in combination with venetoclax for patients with relapsed/ refractory AML (RIVER-81, NCT06191263).
