Trastuzumab deruxtecan is under clinical development by Daiichi Sankyo and currently in Phase III for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Negative Breast Cancer (HER2- Breast Cancer). According to GlobalData, Phase III drugs for Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 Negative Breast Cancer (HER2- Breast Cancer) have a 52% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Pre-Registration. GlobalData’s report assesses how Trastuzumab deruxtecan’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.
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.
Trastuzumab deruxtecan overview
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu, Detrastuzumab) composed of a protease-cleavable maleimide tetrapeptide and topoisomerase which is an exatecan derivative, produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells by recombinant DNA technology, that acts as an anti neoplastic agent. It is formulated as powder for solution for intravenous route of administration. Enhertu is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have received two or more prior anti-HER2-based regimens in the metastatic setting and also for treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma who have received a prior trastuzumab-based regimen. Enhertu is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have received a prior anti-HER2-based regimen either in the metastatic setting, or in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting and have developed disease recurrence during or within six months of completing therapy. Enhertu as monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who have received at least one prior anti-HER2-based regimen either in the metastatic setting, or in the neoadjuvant or adjuvant setting and developed disease recurrence during or within 6 months of completing neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy. Enhertu is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2 low (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-) breast cancer who have received a prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting or developed disease recurrence during or within six months of completing adjuvant chemotherapy.
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201) is under development for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma, osteosarcoma, gallbladder cancer, leptomeningeal carcinoma, metastatic or recurrent uterine carcinosarcoma, gastric cancer, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, metastatic biliary tract cancer, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, epithelial ovarian cancer, metastatic pancreatic cancer, metastatic colorectal cancer, salivary gland cancer, Paget’s disease, cholangiocarcinoma, esophageal cancer, gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, metastatic colorectal cancer, urothelial cancer, HR positive, HER2 low expressing and triple-negative breast cancer. The drug candidate is administered through intravenous route as a solution. The drug candidate is comprised of a humanized anti-HER2 antibody attached by a peptide linker to a derivative of the camptothecin analog exatecan and DNA topoisomerase 1 inhibitor (DXd) as payload. It is developed based on proprietary payload and linker-payload technology. It acts by targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2). It was also under development for osteosarcoma.
