FDA Grants Zongertinib Breakthrough Therapy Designation in HER2-Mutant NSCLC
The FDA has recently granted Zongertinib, a HER2-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) for treating adult patients with advanced, unresectable, or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with HER2 mutations who have previously undergone systemic therapy.
Estela Rodriguez shared a post on X:
“FDA Grants Zongertinib Breakthrough Therapy Designation in HER2-Mutant NSCLC.
Eagerly awaiting for more options for patients with HER2+ NSCLC post T-DXd.
BAY 2927088 also has FDA breakthrough designation.”
