Nirogacestat
Nirogacestat (PF-03084014) is a selective gamma secretase inhibitor[1] developed by SpringWorks Therapeutics that has potential anti-tumor activity. It was granted FDA breakthrough drug designation in September 2019 for adult patients with progressive, unresectable, recurrent or refractory desmoid tumors or deep fibromatosis.[2]

Medical uses
Nirogacestat is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for unresectable desmoid tumors.[3] In addition, a Phase 3 clinical trial, DeFi, is currently in progress for nirogacestat for adults with desmoid tumors and aggressive fibromatosis.[4] In addition, three trials are presently recruiting patients that include nirogacestat with other anticancer therapies in multiple myeloma, including the UNIVERSAL study for nirogacestat with the allogeneic CAR-T therapy ALLO-715.[5][6][7]
