These rationally designed new treatment methods have the potential to change the therapeutic landscape in multiple myeloma and improve the long-term survival outcome. Abstract: SeverFigurel cellular elements of the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment in multiple myeloma (MM) patients contribute to the immune evasion, proliferation, and drug resistance of MM cells, including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), tumor-associated M2-like, “alter- natively activated” macrophages, CD38+ regulatory B-cells (Bregs), and regulatory T-cells (Tregs). These immunosuppressive elements in bidirectional and multi-directional crosstalk with each other inhibit both memory and cytotoxic effector T-cell populations as well as natural killer (NK) cells.

    Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. ODAC Briefing Document Selinexor (KPT-330) 26 February 2019 Meeting SELINEXOR FOR THE TREATMENT OF TRIPLE- CLASS REFRACTORY MULTIPLE MYELOMA FDA ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEETING BRIEFING DOCUMENT ONCOLOGIC DRUGS ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEETING DATE: 26 FEBRUARY 2019 For Public Disclosure 1 of 132 Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. ODAC Briefing Document Selinexor (KPT-330) 26 February 2019 Meeting 1. Executive Summary Karyopharm Therapeutics, Inc (Karyopharm) is seeking approval of selinexor, an oral, first-in class, exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor, in combination with low-dose dexamethasone for the treatment of patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies and whose disease is refractory to at least 1 proteasome inhibitor (PI), at least 1 immunomodulatory imide drug (IMiD), and an anti- CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb). This disease is referred to as “triple-class refractory” multiple myeloma (MM), and patients with this disease have exhausted all treatment options known to be effective. Selinexor has a unique mechanism of action that offers a new pathway for treating RRMM by selectively inhibiting XPO1, reactivating tumor suppressing proteins, and inducing tumor cell apoptosis. It is a slowly reversible covalent inhibitor of XPO1 dosed orally twice weekly. Selinexor in combination with low-dose dexamethasone (Sel+dex) produces clinically meaningful responses in patients with triple-class refractory MM who have exhausted all effective treatment options. Karyopharm has submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) for selinexor using the Accelerated Approval regulatory pathway, which allows drugs for serious conditions that fill an unmet medical need to be approved based on a surrogate endpoint (overall response rate; ORR) that is reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit.

    July 5, 2019 Karyopharm Announces FDA Approval of XPOVIOTM (selinexor) for the Treatment of Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma This information is intended to notify the press release issued on July 3 (ET) by Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. Please click http://investors.karyopharm.com/press-releases for the original press release distributed by Karyopharm. 1st paragraph of the press release: (NEWTON, Mass., July 3, 2019) -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: KPTI), an oncology- focused pharmaceutical company, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved oral XPOVIOTM (selinexor), a nuclear export inhibitor, in combination with dexamethasone for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least four prior therapies and whose disease is refractory to at least two proteasome inhibitors, at least two immunomodulatory agents, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. The ongoing, randomized Phase 3 BOSTON study evaluating selinexor in combination with Velcade® (bortezomib) and low-dose dexamethasone will serve as the confirmatory trial. The FDA’s Accelerated Approval Program was developed to allow for expedited approval of drugs that treat serious conditions and that fill an unmet medical need. About the Ono and Karyopharm Collaboration In October 2017, Ono Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. concluded an exclusive license agreement with Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. for the development and commercialization of Selinexor, their first-in- class oral XPO1 (Exportin 1) inhibitor, and Eltanexor/KPT-8602, a second-generation oral XPO1 inhibitor, for all oncology indications exclusively in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and ASEAN countries.
