Roche’s CDx Test Receives the US FDA’s Approval for HER2 Low Metastatic Breast Cancer
Shots:
- The US FDA has approved the PATHWAY anti-HER2/neu (4B5) Rabbit monoclonal primary Ab as CDx to identify patients with mBC with low HER2 expression who may be eligible for Enhertu
- The test can be used to standardize immuno-histochemistry (IHC) processes & decrease human error in the laboratory setting. It also includes an algorithm that allows pathologists to score HER2 expression & identify the low expression
- Enhertu will be commercialized by AstraZeneca & Daiichi Sankyo, based on the results of the P-III (DESTINY-Breast04) trial. The results showed a 50% reduction in risk of disease recurrence or death and an overall gain of 6mos. over SoC in low-expression HER2 patients treated with Enhertu
