Ziftomenib is currently being evaluated across numerous clinical trials spanning Phase 1 through Phase 3 for acute myeloid leukemia—particularly NPM1-mutated and KMT2A-rearranged subtypes—and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Encompassing actively recruiting, not yet recruiting, and active non-recruiting protocols, these studies evaluate ziftomenib as both monotherapy and combination therapy in frontline and relapsed/refractory settings. Sponsored by pharmaceutical developers such as Kura Oncology and Kyowa Kirin alongside academic institutions like M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and Massachusetts General Hospital, these trials investigate the drug's safety, pharmacokinetics, and therapeutic efficacy.
