Syndax Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SNDX) reported Q3 EPS of ($0.46), $0.02 worse than the analyst estimate of ($0.44).

"We continue to make exciting progress in the Phase 1 portion of the AUGMENT-101 trial of SNDX-5613, our highly selective, potent, oral menin inhibitor, in adult and pediatric patients with acute leukemias that harbor MLL-r and NPM1 genetic alterations," said Briggs W. Morrison, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Syndax. "We are highly encouraged by initial data from this study, which demonstrated clear clinical activity in this difficult to treat population of patients with genetically defined acute leukemias. We remain on track to present Phase 1 data from AUGMENT-101 and commence the Phase 2 portion in early 2021."

Dr. Morrison added, "In addition, following recent interactions with the FDA, we are excited to take the next step of initiating a pivotal trial for axatilimab, our anti-CSF-1R monoclonal antibody, in patients with cGVHD which we expect by the end of this year. We are encouraged by the clinical activity and overall safety we've seen in the ongoing trial, and firmly believe axatilimab has the potential to serve as an effective intervention for patients with cGVHD. We look forward to sharing updated results from the Phase 1 trial during an oral presentation at the ASH Annual Meeting in December."
