The first bispecific ADC to extend both progression-free and overall survival in oesophageal cancer, for patients whose immunotherapy has stopped working.
Interim analysis met dual primary endpoints of OS and BICR-assessed PFS (announced February 2026; presented ASCO 2026). 249 vs 248 patients. Second-line ESCC previously had only single-agent chemotherapy (irinotecan, taxanes) with median OS under a year. Global confirmatory trials are being planned.
Numbers are from the trial as recorded here; see the source links in the table below. This is orientation, not medical advice: ask your team how closely the trial population matches you.
