Daraxonrasib (RMC-6236) is an investigational new drug being evaluated by Revolution Medicines to treat advanced solid tumors with RAS mutations, especially metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) containing KRAS G12X mutations. [1] It has received a breakthrough therapy designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. [2]
Daraxonrasib is an orally active, multi-selective RAS inhibitor that uses a novel tri-complex mechanism to target the active, GTP-bound form of RAS proteins, including mutant and wild-type types. Unlike conventional RAS inhibitors, it first binds to the chaperone-like protein cyclophilin A to form a complex, which then attaches to active RAS. This interaction blocks downstream effector binding and inhibits oncogenic signaling. [3]
