AstraZeneca, Daiichi Sankyo, and the Dato-DXd Overall Survival Challenge in NSCLC
AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo's Dato-DXd Overall Survival Disappointment
AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo have reported a disappointing failure for their TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugate, Dato-DXd, in improving overall survival (OS) for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This setback extends the list of ADCs struggling to demonstrate survival benefits, raising questions about future therapeutic approaches in oncology.
Implications for Future Treatments
As the FDA's decision regarding Dato-DXd looms, the impact of this overall survival failure on treatment protocols and drug development strategies cannot be overstated. The medical community and stakeholders must reevaluate the viability of TROP2-directed therapies amidst this emerging data.
