Clin Cancer Res. 2022 May 2;28(9):1748-1750. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-22-0120.

Abstract

ONC201 is an oral selective antagonist of the dopamine D2 receptor and direct activator of caseinolytic protease P. In a phase II study, ONC021 was shown to be well tolerated with notable efficacy in patients with the rare neuroendocrine neoplasms pheochromocytomas-paragangliomas, although biomarkers for activity remain to be elucidated. See related article by Anderson et al., p. 1773.
