ASCO 2020: Can Xtandi PROSPER In Prostate OS Data Battle?

Ascentage will share at ASCO new clinical data on its Bcl-2 inhibitor lisaftoclax, part of the Chinese firm's novel pipeline, on which its CEO shared with Scrip plans and strategy, along with some views on the use of RWD in China.

Data from several closely watched solid tumor drug trials – some considered practice-changing – are scheduled for presentation at the meeting, including for AstraZeneca and Daiichi’s Enhertu.

In first confirmatory randomized controlled trial of any CAR-T therapy in solid tumors, CARsgen’s Claudin 18.2-targeting satri-cel reduced risk of death or disease progression by 63% in Chinese patients with gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer.

With the American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting kicking off on 30 May, Scrip will follow the latest in blood cancers, including Regeneron’s linvoseltamab in multiple myeloma and Merck’s ADC zilovertamab vedotin in DLBCL.
