GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Talimogene laherparepvec overview

Talimogene laherparepvec (Imlygic) is a recombinant herpes simplex type-1 virus (HSV), acts as immunostimulating and antineoplastic agent. It is formulated as injectable suspension and solution for intralesional route of administration. Imlygic is a genetically modified oncolytic viral therapy indicated for the local treatment of unresectable cutaneous, subcutaneous, and nodal lesions in patients with melanoma recurrent after initial surgery. Imlygic has not been shown to improve overall survival or have an effect on visceral metastases.

It is under development for the treatment of Kaposi sarcoma, cutaneous angiosarcoma, pleomorphic liposarcoma, locally advanced basal cell carcinoma,HER2 negative breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic cancer including metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, gastroesophageal cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, metastatic recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck of the oral cavity, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, metastatic colorectal cancer with liver metastasis, metastatic breast cancer and other rare skin tumors, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx, soft tissue sarcoma as second and third line therapy, and other solid tumors including inflammatory breast cancer. It is under development for undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, myxofibrosarcoma, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) as adjuvant therapy. It is administered through intravesical, intratumor, intrapleural and intralesional route. It was also under development for triple negative breast cancer, malignant pleural effusion, non-muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma (second line therapy), refractory T cell and NK cell lymphomas (cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL), mycosis fungoides (MF), Sezary syndrome (SS), peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), ALK-positive and ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL)), extramammary Paget Disease, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, non-melanomatous skin cancer.

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in clinical development (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a combination of machine learning and a proprietary algorithm to process data points from various databases found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
