AstraZeneca said Monday that the phase II trial for its cancer
drug Enhertu showed clinically meaningful and durable responses
across patients with HER2-expressing advanced solid tumours who had
been previously treated.
The Anglo-Swedish pharma giant said interim results from its
DESTINY-PanTumor02 Phase 2 trial showed an objective response rate
of 37.1% in the trial's overall population and also demonstrated
positive antitumor activity in patients previously treated for
HER2-positive metastatic colorectal cancer.
Enhertu, or trastuzumab deruxtecan, is being jointly developed
and commercialized by AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo.
