AstraZeneca’s Lynparza to dominate PARP inhibitors market with $4 bn in sales by 2027

In 2014, the FDA approved the first (adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor AstraZeneca/Merck’s Lynparza (olaparib) for use in breast cancer gene (BRCA)-mutated metastatic ovarian cancer patients who have received three or more prior lines of chemotherapy. Since then, the PARP inhibitors market has made significant strides, but Lynparza maintains its dominance with projected global sales of $4 billion by 2027, according to an analyst consensus forecast by GlobalData. GlobalData’s analyst consensus reveals that high sales projections underscore Lynparza’s role in treating multiple cancer types, including ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer. Expected revenues in these indications will reach over 68 per cent of the global PARP inhibitors market by 2027. GlaxoSmithKline’s (GSK) Zejula (niraparib) holds the second position with over $1.6 billion in sales and 28 per cent of the market share. Most of Lynparza’s sales come from ovarian and HER2-negative breast cancer treatment. Biswajit Podder, ...

AstraZeneca, Daiichi Sankyo Drug Enhertu Becomes First Tumor-Agnostic ADC Cancer Med

The FDA expanded Enhertu’s approval to encompass advanced solid tumors positive for the HER2 cancer protein, regardless of tumor type. Analysts say the regulatory decision paves the way for similar broader approvals of other medications in the ADC cancer drug class.The AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo targeted cancer drug Enhertu is now the first therapy in its class approved for treating solid tumors regardless of either the cancer type or where the disease started in the body. Enhertu had previously won FDA approvals for treating certain advanced cases of breast, gastric, and lung cancers that express a protein called HER2. Late Friday, the FDA expanded the drug’s approval to broadly include the treatment of adults who have HER2-expressing solid tumors. These patients must have a cancer that cannot be removed surgically or has advanced following a prior systemic treatment. The expanded approval came nearly two months ahead of the May 30 ...

AstraZeneca reports positive Phase III results for Imfinzi in small cell lung cancer

Though a recent Phase III trial failed to achieve its primary endpoint with Imfinzi (durvalumab) in a specific subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), AstraZeneca has announced that another Phase III study evaluating the checkpoint inhibitor has demonstrated a survival benefit in patients with limited-state small cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC). As per the 5 April press release, Imfinzi monotherapy demonstrated statistically and clinically meaningful improvements across the study’s primary endpoints of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Additionally, the safety profile of the Imfinzi remained consistent with previous findings. The randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III ADRIATIC study (NCT03703297) is actively evaluating Imfinzi as both a monotherapy and as a combination therapy with AstraZeneca’s Imjudo (tremelimumab) for the treatment of patients with LS-SCLC who have not progressed following concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT). The study enrolled a total of 730 patients who were randomly assigned to receive placebo or 1500mg Imfinzi, ...

AstraZeneca Acquisition Brings Drug to Fill a Rare Disease Gap Left by Takeda

AstraZeneca is acquiring Amolyt Pharma to get eneboparatide, a drug in Phase 3 development for treating hypoparathyroidism. Takeda Pharmaceutical markets the only FDA-approved treatment for this rare disease, but the Japanese pharmaceutical giant plans to stop making the drug. By FRANK VINLUAN AstraZeneca is bolstering its rare disease pipeline with a deal to buy Amolyt Pharma, a biotech company in late-stage development with a therapy designed to treat a rare hormone deficiency whose only FDA-approved treatment will soon cease production. According to deal terms announced Thursday, AstraZeneca is paying Amolyt shareholders $800 million up front. Another $250 million is tied to the achievement of a regulatory milestone that was not disclosed. Considering that the drug is in Phase 3 testing, that milestone could be a regulatory approval. Lyon, France-based Amolyt is developing a therapy for hypoparathyroidism, a disease in which the parathyroid glands do not produce enough parathyroid hormone. This ...

AstraZeneca’s “CD19/CD3 dual antibody” receives clinical approval in China

According to the CDE official website, AstraZeneca’s Class 1 therapeutic biological product AZD0486 has obtained implicit approval for clinical trials and is intended to be used to treat relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. AZD0486 (TNB-486) is a new, fully human CD19xCD3 IgG4 bispecific antibody, originally developed by TeneoTwo. In 2022, AstraZeneca acquired TeneoTwo for US$1.265 billion and also obtained its clinical-stage drug TNB-486. According to public information, AZD0486 can bind to CD19 on the surface of B lymphocytes and CD3 receptors on the surface of T lymphocytes, thereby initiating the immune response of T lymphocytes. A Phase I clinical study (NCT04594642) published in the journal “OncLive” in August 2023 showed that AZD0486 has a durable tumor inhibitory effect on relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, regardless of the expression level of CD20, and it is also independent of the type and dosage of existing drugs. Currently, AZD0486 has entered the Phase ...

AstraZeneca’s Tagrisso combination approved by FDA for advanced lung cancer

AstraZeneca’s (AZ) Tagrisso (osimertinib) has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in combination with chemotherapy to treat a subset of advanced lung cancer patients. The epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor has specifically been authorised for use alongside chemotherapy in adults with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). An estimated 200,000 people in the US are diagnosed with lung cancer each year and NSCLC accounts for up to 85% of all lung cancer cases. Approximately 15% of NSCLC patients in the US have an EGFRm, with this population “particularly sensitive” to treatment with an EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks the cell-signalling pathways that drive the growth of tumour cells, AZ said. The FDA’s decision was supported by positive results from the late-stage FLAURA2 trial, which randomised more than 500 patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFRm NSCLC to receive the ...

Daiichi Sankyo and AstraZeneca’s lung cancer antibody set for FDA review

It is shaping up to be a big year for AstraZeneca in lung cancer treatments. Following another approval win for its blockbuster immunotherapy drug Tagrisso (Osimertinib) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), another drug could be on the way later this year. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for review Daiichi Sankyo and AstraZeneca’s datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have received prior systemic therapy, as per a 19 February press release. The outcome of the FDA’s decision will only be known later this year, with a Prescription Drug User Free Act (PDUFA) date set for 20 December 2024. AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo’s Dato-DXd is a TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). TROP2 is a protein highly expressed in many types of lung cancers. The drug has demonstrated positive results in the Phase III TROPION-Lung01 ...
