AstraZeneca advances its ambition to revolutionise cancer care with new data across its diverse, industry-leading portfolio and pipeline at the IASLC 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) hosted by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, 7 to 10 September 2024 and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress, 13 to 17 September 2024.

Across the two meetings, more than 130 abstracts will feature 17 approved and potential new medicines from AstraZeneca including five Presidential Symposia and 41 oral presentations.

Susan Galbraith, Executive Vice President, Oncology R&D, AstraZeneca, said: “The presentations across these two congresses advance our long-term strategy to revolutionise cancer care. We will show results from our computational pathology platform at WCLC which we are using across our antibody drug conjugate portfolio to develop predictive biomarkers to enhance patient selection and improve outcomes for patients. We will also share data on the use of our TROP2 antibody drug conjugate datopotamab deruxtecan in combination with Imfinzi in early-stage lung cancer, a promising first look at clinical activity from two of our own pipeline antibody drug conjugates and important progress for our next-generation immunotherapies.”

Dave Fredrickson, Executive Vice President, Oncology Business Unit, AstraZeneca, said: “Our data featured at WCLC and ESMO will exhibit AstraZeneca’s progress in advancing several of the biggest trends transforming cancer treatment today and potentially in the future. Positive results for Imfinzi from the NIAGARA trial in muscle-invasive bladder cancer will show the importance of integrating perioperative immunotherapy in this setting, and data for datopotamab deruxtecan and Enhertu in several lung cancer settings will highlight how antibody drug conjugates have the potential to replace traditional chemotherapy approaches in many cancer settings.”
