Following disappointing Phase III results in less aggressive non-small cell lung cancer, AstraZeneca on Friday announced that Imfinzi improved progression-free and overall survival in patients with limited-stage small cell lung cancer.

AstraZeneca on Thursday released its fourth-quarter and full-year financial results, touting 6% total revenue growth for 2023 even as its COVID-19 business plummeted by more than 90%.

When given concurrently with chemoradiotherapy, AstraZeneca’s Imfinzi in a late-stage lung cancer study did not lead to significant improvements in progression-free survival versus chemoradiotherapy alone.

For AstraZeneca, the approval of Enhertu last year marked one of the high points in the company’s scientific program.

Today AstraZeneca announced that a combination of its cancer drugs Imfinzi and Lynparza when added to platinum-based chemotherapy showed positive results in a late-stage trial in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.

AstraZeneca on Thursday beat expectations for first-quarter profit and revenue, as buoyant sales of cancer treatment Imfinzi and strong demand for its roster of drugs in emerging markets helped to offset dwindling COVID product sales.

The combination treatment of AstraZeneca’s Imfinzi (durvalumab) and Lynparza (olaparib) met its primary endpoint in the Phase III DUO-O trial in advanced high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer, according to an interim analysis of the study released Wednesday.

Thursday, AstraZeneca reported data from the Phase III ADAURA trial showing its Tagrisso (osimertinib) boosts overall survival (OS) as an adjuvant treatment for early non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after curative resection.

The FDA approved AstraZeneca’s Imfinzi (durvalumab) in combination with Imjudo (tremelimumab) and platinum-based chemotherapy Thursday for adult patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

The FDA greenlit AstraZeneca’s anti-CTLA-4 antibody tremelimumab in combination with its checkpoint inhibitor Imfinzi as a treatment for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common type of liver cancer.
