Positive Trastuzumab Trial Data Offers Hope for Struggling Breast Cancer Patients
Published: Dec 12, 2019 By Mark Terry

AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo presented positive data from their Phase II single-arm DESTINY-Breast01 trial of trastuzumab deruxtecan (DS-8201) in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients who received two or more previous HER-2 targeted regimens. The objective response rate (ORR), which was the primary endpoint, was 60.9% with the drug alone

Safety and tolerability of the drug was consistent with that seen in the Phase I clinical trial. The most common Grade 3 or higher adverse events related to treatment were decreased neutrophil count, anemia, nausea, decreased white cell count, decreased lymphocyte count and fatigues. About 13.6% of patients had confirmed interstitial lung disease (ILD) related to treatment. Four deaths were associated with ILD. ILD is a broad group of disorders that cause scarring, or fibrosis, of the lungs.
