Their clinical-stage SHP2 inhibitor, RMC-4630, is currently in Phase 1/2, and is facilitated through a partnership with Sanofi [2] [3] Revolution Medicines showed that SHP2 inhibition is an effective form of treatment in cancers with RAS-GTP dependent oncogenic BRAF and NF1 loss of function. [4] [5] Revolution Medicine's recently announced a Phase 1B combination study of RMC-4630 with Amgen's AMG 510. [6] [7]
