    HUTCHMED and AstraZeneca report positive Phase III SANOVO lung cancer trial data

    Question

    HUTCHMED and AstraZeneca report positive Phase III SANOVO lung cancer trial data

    Direct answer

    HUTCHMED reported top-line findings from the Phase III SANOVO clinical trial in China, demonstrating that savolitinib (ORPATHYS) in combination with osimertinib (TAGRISSO) achieved a statistically significant progression-free survival benefit. The study evaluated first-line therapy in patients with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer harboring MET overexpression, confirming combination efficacy and providing positive early overall survival signals.
