An interim analysis of the dose-optimization segment of the current IDeate-Lung01 phase 2 trial revealed that ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) remains to show promising objective response rates in patients with pretreated extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). These findings were highlighted today during a press conference and will be shared in an oral presentation (OA04.03) on Sunday at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (#WCLC24), organized by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer.

Ifinatamab deruxtecan is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) specifically designed as a potential first-in-class treatment targeting B7-H3. This ADC was discovered by Daiichi Sankyo (TSE: 4568) and is under joint development by Daiichi Sankyo and Merck (NYSE: MRK), identified as MSD outside the United States and Canada.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) ranks as the second most prevalent form of lung cancer, accounting for around 15% of lung cancer cases. SCLC is characterized by its aggressive nature and rapid progression to a metastatic stage, where the five-year survival rate plummets to only 3%. Approximately 65% of SCLC tumors exhibit moderate to high levels of B7-H3 protein, a marker linked to disease advancement and poor prognosis.
"Many patients undergoing treatment for small cell lung cancer face swift disease progression, highlighting the significant unmet need in advanced-stage care," stated Charles M. Rudin, MD, PhD, Deputy Director of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Co-Director of the Fiona and Stanley Druckenmiller Center for Lung Cancer Research. "Initial data from the first segment of the IDeate-Lung01 trial indicate that ifinatamab deruxtecan might play a crucial role in managing patients with previously treated extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, meriting further investigation."
