Aakash Desai: Sacituzumab govitecan continues to show promise as a 2-line treatment for extensive-stage SCLC

Aakash Desai, Assistant Professor at UAB O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center, shared on LinkedIn:

“Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) continues to show promise as a second-line treatment for extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).

The phase 2 TROPiCS-03 study in JTO highlights:

Objective Response Rate (ORR): 41.9%
Median Progression-Free Survival (PFS): 4.4 months
Median Overall Survival (OS): 13.6 months

G3 or more TEAEs: 74%

These results were consistent across both platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant patients.

This adds to the growing evidence for SG as a potential option in the challenging ES-SCLC treatment landscape.”
