"Breast cancer"

Data from a trial show that adding the new drug Eganelisib to standard treatment significantly improves the length of survival for patients with triple-negative breast cancer whose disease remains unexacerbated. Patients benefited regardless of their PD-L1 status.

Every year, 40000 women die of breast cancer in the United States alone. When cancers are discovered at an early stage, they can often be cured. Mammography is the best alternative diagnostic method, but this method also has shortcomings. It often results in false positive results, leading to unnecessary surgery.

St. Marianna's Medical University Hospital is one of the top hospitals in Japan, specializing in breast surgery and other related diseases.

DZD1516 is a reversible, selective HER2-targeting agent with full blood-brain barrier penetration. It has demonstrated good therapeutic response in phase I studies in patients with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer, including breast cancer patients with central nervous system metastases.

The FDA granted priority review status to Enhertu (DS-8201) for the treatment of patients with HR-positive, low HER2-expressing breast cancer, and Enhertu has enabled these patients to remain disease-free for an average of 10.1 months, with an average overall survival time of nearly two years. A decision on approval is expected to be made in the fourth quarter of this year.
