Faeth reports positive Phase 2 topline data for PIKTOR in endometrial cancer, plans Phase 3
PIKTOR plus paclitaxel showed a 33% confirmed response rate and 7.4-month median PFS in the PIK-201 trial, and Faeth says the results support moving to a registrational study.
Faeth Therapeutics announced topline results on November 9, 2026 from its Phase 2 trial of PIKTOR, an investigational oral combination of serabelisib and sapanisertib, paired with paclitaxel in patients with advanced endometrioid endometrial cancer carrying a PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway mutation who had received at least one prior therapy. The trial, known as FTH-PIK-201 (NCT06463028, GOG-3111), is being conducted in collaboration with The GOG Foundation.1
As of an October 30, 2026 data cut, the confirmed objective response rate was 33%, rising to 44% among patients with a PIK3CA mutation.1 Among the 42 treated patients, estimated median progression-free survival was 7.4 months, with a 62% six-month PFS rate.1 Disease control rate was 83%.1
On safety, as of an October 23, 2026 cut, hyperglycemia occurred in 12% of patients and stomatitis in 21%, with only 2% grade 3 events for each.1 Two patients discontinued due to treatment-related adverse events, and there were no treatment-related deaths.1 Overall, 64% had a grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse event, with neutropenia the most common at 26% grade 3 or higher.1
CEO Anand Parikh said the firm believes the data support what it calls a "multi-nodal PAM targeting hypothesis" and the company now plans to advance toward a Phase 3 trial, subject to regulatory alignment.1
This builds on Faeth's November 3, 2026 third-quarter update, in which it said topline data from PIK-201 were anticipated by year-end 20262 and disclosed FDA Fast Track designation for PIKTOR plus paclitaxel in biomarker-selected advanced endometrial cancer2. The company separately reported a Phase 1b/2 breast cancer trial, FTH-PIK-101, with interim data anticipated in 20272, and said cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $174.8 million as of September 30, 20262.
