Nuclear protein in testis midline carcinoma (NMC) is a rare and extremely aggressive carcinoma (median survival < 7 months) with no effective treatment options. CUDC-907 is a novel small molecule inhibitor of histone deacetylase (HDAC) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) enzymes currently being investigated in multiple tumor types, including NMC. Case Report: A 61-year old female NMC patient enrolled on study CUDC-907-102 (NCT02307240) after rapidly progressing through two prior treatments. The patient’s assessable sites of disease consisted of right pleural effusion, right hilar soft tissue, and segment IV liver. Treatment was well tolerated with toxicities primarily consisting of manageable diarrhea and thrombocytopenia. The patient remains on active treatment after more than 32 months of stable disease. Discussion: Dysregulation of MYC in NMC is believed to play a central role in pathogenesis. CUDC-907 has demonstrated potent suppression of MYC expression and anti-tumor activity in preclinical NMC models, providing a mechanistic rationale for the prolonged disease stabilization observed here. The treatment of additional NMC patients with CUDC-907 is needed to further evaluate this promising report. Conclusion: This case demonstrates a rare success in the treatment of a devastating disease using only a novel small molecule, warranting further investigation of CUDC-907 in NMC.
