AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo announced positive top-line results from the DESTINY-Lung04 Phase III trial, showing ENHERTU demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival (PFS) as a first-line treatment for HER2-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The trial compared ENHERTU against the global standard of care—platinum-pemetrexed doublet chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab—and is the first Phase III trial to show a PFS benefit for a HER2-directed therapy in this setting.
