Trial-in-progress updates from the pivotal phase 3 development program of DS-8201 in patients with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer, including a head-to-head study with ado-trastuzumab emtansine, and in patients with HER2 low metastatic breast cancer, also will be presented.
Key Points:
- Trial-in-progress updates from the pivotal phase 3 development program of DS-8201 in patients with HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer, including a head-to-head study with ado-trastuzumab emtansine, and in patients with HER2 low metastatic breast cancer, also will be presented.
- These data, coupled with other important scientific discussions surrounding our other pivotal studies in HER2 positive and HER2 low metastatic breast cancer, underscore the commitment we have in bringing DS-8201 to as many patients as possible.
- A comprehensive development program for DS-8201 is underway globally with five pivotal trials in HER2 expressing metastatic breast and gastric cancer, including a trial in patients with metastatic breast cancer and low levels of HER2 expression (HER2 low).
- Trastuzuamb deruxtecan (DS-8201a) in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer previously treated with trastuzumab emtansine: a dose-expansion, phase 1 study.
