Overall survival and additional long-term follow-up data from the Phase 2b HERIZON-BTC-01 trial in previously treated HER2-positive metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC) to be presented at ASCO 2024
DUBLIN, April 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: JAZZ) today announced that the company, along with its partners, will present or publish eight abstracts at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting from May 31-June 4, 2024 in Chicago. Presentations include data from trials of zanidatamab, Zepzelca® (lurbinectedin), and Rylaze® (asparaginase erwinia chrysanthemi (recombinant)-rywn). A poster featuring the study design for the JZP898 Phase 1 trial in progress will also be presented.
Updated data with longer follow-up, including overall survival findings, will be presented from the Phase 2b HERIZON-BTC-01 trial of zanidatamab, a HER2-targeted bispecific, biparatopic antibody, in previously treated HER2-positive biliary tract cancer (BTC). Data from the HERIZON-BTC-01 trial were the backbone of the recently completed Biologics License Application (BLA) submission for previously treated HER2-positive metastatic BTC.
"We are excited to present data across our oncology pipeline and portfolio at ASCO, particularly the opportunity to provide updated data from the pivotal Phase 2b HERIZON-BTC-01 trial of zanidatamab in HER2-positive BTC presented at last year's meeting. BTC is often associated with a poor prognosis, and we believe zanidatamab has the potential to be transformative to the current standard of care in BTC and multiple HER2-expressing cancersHER2-expressing cancers, including in cases resistant to prior HER2-targeted therapies," said Rob Iannone, M.D., M.S.C.E., executive vice president, global head of research and development of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. "The abstracts accepted for presentation by Jazz and our partners at this year's meeting demonstrate our commitment to advancing our portfolio of innovative oncology products and investigational therapies at all stages of development as we seek to deliver on our goal to help people with cancer live longer, fuller lives."
The full ASCO abstracts will be available on May 23, 2024, after 5 p.m. ET. The abstract titles are available at: https://www.asco.org/abstracts.

Zepzelca
Rylaze
Zanidatamab is an investigational bispecific antibody that can simultaneously bind two non-overlapping epitopes of HER2, known as biparatopic binding. This unique design and increased binding results in multiple mechanisms of action, including dual HER2 signal blockade, removal of HER2 protein from the cell surface, and immune-mediated cytotoxicity leading to encouraging antitumor activity in patients. Zanidatamab is being developed in multiple clinical trials as a targeted treatment option for patients with solid tumors that express HER2. Zanidatamab is being developed by Jazz and BeiGene, Ltd. (BeiGene) under license agreements from Zymeworks, which first developed the molecule.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for zanidatamab development in patients with previously treated HER2 gene-amplified biliary tract cancers (BTC), and two Fast Track designations for zanidatamab: one as a single agent for refractory BTC and one in combination with standard of care chemotherapy for 1L gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEA). Additionally, zanidatamab has received Orphan Drug designations from FDA for the treatment of BTC and GEA, as well as Orphan Drug designation from the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of BTC and gastric cancer. Zanidatamab was also granted Breakthrough Therapy designation from the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) in China.
Zepzelca is an alkylating drug that binds guanine residues within DNA. This triggers a cascade of events that can affect the activity of DNA binding proteins, including some transcription factors, and DNA repair pathways, resulting in disruption of the cell cycle and eventual cell death.1
The FDA approved Zepzelca under accelerated approval in June 2020 for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic SCLC with disease progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy. The approval is based on overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response demonstrated in an open-label, monotherapy clinical study. In December 2021, Jazz and PharmaMar announced the initiation of LAGOON, a confirmatory Phase 3 clinical trial of Zepzelca for the treatment of patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer. If positive, LAGOON could confirm the benefit of Zepzelca in the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) when patients progress following 1L treatment with a platinum-based regimen and support full approval in the U.S.
Zepzelca is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with SCLC that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) and who have received treatment with chemotherapy that contains platinum, and it did not work or is no longer working. Zepzelca is approved based on response rate and how long the response lasted. Additional studies will further evaluate the benefit of Zepzelca for this use.
Important Safety Information for ZEPZELCA
Before receiving ZEPZELCA, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
have liver or kidney problems.
