About SNS-595

SNS-595 is a replication-dependent DNA damaging agent that causes irreversible G2 arrest and rapid apoptosis. A secondary mechanism for SNS-595 is a unique inhibition of topoisomerase II that causes highly selective DNA damage.

Data reported today build upon positive results from non-clinical studies, and from Sunesis' dose-escalating Phase 1 clinical trial of SNS-595 in which an ovarian cancer patient with advanced disease achieved a PR. In addition to the Phase 2 clinical trial in ovarian cancer patients, SNS-595 is currently being evaluated in two Phase 1b acute leukemia clinical trials. In clinical trials conducted to date, SNS-595 has been generally well tolerated and has shown objective responses in both solid and hematological tumor types. In non-clinical evaluations, SNS-595 demonstrates broad and potent activity in xenograft, syngeneic and drug-resistant models.
