AstraZeneca Says Liver Cancer Drug Combination Extends Progression-Free Survival in Phase 3 Trial

MT Newswires Live04-02

AstraZeneca (AZN) said Thursday a combination therapy featuring its medications Imfinzi and Imjudo alongside lenvatinib and a transarterial chemoembolisation procedure demonstrated an improvement in the primary endpoint of progression-free survival in patients with a common form of liver cancer.

Interim results from the phase 3 study also highlighted a trend toward better overall survival rates when compared with transarterial chemoembolisation by itself, the company said.

The experimental treatment approach produced no unexpected safety complications during the evaluation period, and the company said it is waiting for results relating to the study's secondary endpoints.
