Results from a pre-specified interim analysis from the phase III J-ALEX study found that Alecensa (alectinib) reduced the risk of disease worsening or death by 66 percent compared to (Xalkori) crizotinib in Japanese people with advanced or recurrent ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (HR=0.34, 99% CI: 0.17-0.70, p<0.0001) who had not received prior treatment with an ALK inhibitor.
The REZILIENT3 trial, a global phase III clinical trial evaluating the combination of zipalertinib and platinum-based chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in the first-line treatment of adult patients with previously untreated, locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer harboring epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations, met its primary endpoint of progression-free survival at a planned interim analysis.
