🔍 Precision Oncology: A Dominant Force in Modern Cancer Care A recent study reveals that out of the 198 oncology drugs approved by the U.S. FDA from 1998 to 2022, a significant 43% were precision oncology therapies. These therapies, guided by biomarker testing, have seen a rapid increase in FDA approvals, especially from 2017 to 2022. Key Insights: 🎯 Precision oncology therapies require genomic biomarker screening for patient selection. 🎯 The rate of FDA approvals for these therapies saw a sharp rise between 2017 and 2022. 🎯 Despite the growth, the clinical impact of precision oncology remains a topic of discussion. However, the study emphasizes its foundational role in current oncology care. Kudos to Debyani Chakravarty, Sarah Phillips Suehnholz, PhD, and the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center team for their comprehensive research, shedding light on the evolution and significance of precision oncology in cancer care. https://ow.ly/E0pn50PYk4C #Oncology #PrecisionMedicine #CancerResearch #FDAApprovals

There are a range of advances in clinical development within oncology, driving changes in standard of care and addressing unmet needs. ADCs continue to demonstrate the potential to improve standard of care and next generation ADC technology is emerging. PD-1 inhibitors also continue to advance the standard of care across numerous disease states, as well as rationally designed small molecules, including when both are given in combination with other agents. Both bi-specific T-cell engagers and bi-specific antibodies are emerging to address unmet clinical needs. Radiopharmaceuticals are also showing promise as oncology therapeutic agents. In haematologic malignancy, CAR-T cell therapy continues to improve care.

ASCO 2024 Unveils Major Breakthroughs in Blood Cancer Treatments At the recent ASCO 2024 conference, pharmaceutical companies revealed significant advancements in blood cancer therapies, specifically Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) and Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs). Novartis' Scemblix, a pioneering TKI for chronic phase CML, demonstrated promising results in a trial, boasting a higher major molecular response rate and lower discontinuation rates due to adverse events compared to standard treatments. Pfizer's ADC, Adcetris, combined with lenalidomide and rituximab, showcased enhanced overall survival and response rates in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Additionally, GSK's Blenrep, an ADC for multiple myeloma, exhibited positive outcomes in a trial, although it faces market competition and concerns over severe eye toxicity. These findings underscore the ongoing evolution and potential of targeted therapies in combatting blood cancers. # Thank you Paulina Herrera for your submission!

Global clinical regulatory strategy and intelligence- serving the US and global early, mid and late stage clients in TAs of high unmet medical need
Key findings Results showed 198 new oncology drugs approved by the FDA during the study period. Of these, approximately 43% comprised precision oncology drugs that require biomarker testing. Less than half (47.8%) of all approved precision oncology therapies could be considered first-in-class, meaning they targeted a genomic alteration not yet recognized as clinically actionable. The proportion of tumors harboring a clinically actionable alteration matching an FDA-approved standard care therapy increased from 8.9% to 31.6% between 2017 and 2022. Meanwhile, the number of tumors analyzed that did not harbor an actionable molecular target decreased by almost half, from 44.2% to 22.8%.
Most tumors lack a ‘viable’ precision treatment option
