Approval brings AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo’s Enhertu earlier in the treatment of HR-positive, HER2-low breast cancer and broadens the eligible patient population to those with HER2-ultralow disease
The PATHWAY HER2 (4B5) test, the first and only FDA approved companion diagnostic for assessing HER2-low status since 2022, is now also approved to aid in the assessment of HER2-ultralow status for metastatic breast cancer patients.
Based on DESTINY-Breast06 Phase III trial results which showed Enhertu demonstrated superiority vs. chemotherapy with a median progression-free survival of more than one year
