High-level results from the primary analysis of the ongoing DESTINY-PanTumor02 Phase II trial showed Enhertu demonstrated clinically meaningful progression-free survival, or PFS, and overall survival, or OS, in previously treated patients across multiple HER2-expressing advanced solid tumours, two secondary endpoints of the trial, AstraZeneca announced. In the primary analysis, Enhertu continued to show durable responses based on investigator-assessed confirmed objective response rate, or ORR, the primary endpoint of the trial, and duration of response, or DoR, a secondary endpoint; reinforcing results from an interim analysis of the trial recently presented at the 2023 American Society of Clinical Oncology, or ASCO, Annual Meeting. Cristian Massacesi, Chief Medical Officer and Oncology Chief Development Officer, AstraZeneca, said: “The progression-free survival and overall survival results for Enhertu alongside the continued robust and durable tumour responses seen with further follow up underscore the potential value of this important medicine for patients with HER2-expressing cancers who currently have no targeted treatment options. With a high unmet need in these cancers, we are working with health authorities to bring Enhertu to patients with HER2-expressing cancers that could potentially benefit from this medicine as quickly as possible.”
