- Daiichi Sankyo (TSE: 4568) announced today that the first patient has been dosed in a global phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of DS-7300 in patients with pretreated extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
- Based on the encouraging results seen in the ongoing phase 1/2 trial, we have initiated this phase 2 trial of DS-7300 to further evaluate whether targeting B7-H3 with our DXd antibody drug conjugate technology may become a potential treatment option for patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer.
- B7-H3 is overexpressed in a wide range of cancer types, including SCLC, squamous non-small cell lung cancer and prostate cancer.
- In addition to the phase 2 trial in extensive-stage SCLC, DS-7300 is being evaluated in a phase 1/2 trial in collaboration with the Sarah Cannon Research Institute in three cohorts of patients with metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and castration-resistant prostate cancer.
