Stan Rogers Folk Festival 2024: 27 years of music and community | SaltWire #festival #music #ns - Gilead Sciences' Trodelvy improved survival by 1.3 months more than chemotherapy in previously treated patients with advanced lung cancer in a late-stage trial, a difference that was not statistically significant, the company said on Friday.
Trodelvy, which belongs to a class of treatments known as antibody drug conjugates, is currently approved in the U.S. for patients with two specific types of advanced breast cancer and bladder cancers. For patients whose lung cancer had responded to their last immunotherapy, overall survival was a month longer for the chemotherapy group.
Serious side effects were reported by 67% of Trodelvy patients and 76% of chemotherapy patients. The most common side effects for Trodelvy were fatigue, diarrhea and hair loss.
