Based on discussions with MHLW and PMDA, Eisai applied to PMDA for permission to utilize "prior assessment consultation" process for BAN2401 (lecanemab), an investigational anti-amyloid beta protofibril antibody with aim of shortening review period for treatment of early AD.
E7386 is a CBP/β-catenin inhibitor that inhibits CBP and β-catenin protein-protein interactions and regulates the Wnt signal-dependent gene expression is expected to suppress tumor.
Among the 697 not dMMR patients, 346 patients were randomized to KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA, and 351 patients were randomized to investigator's choice of doxorubicin (n=254) or paclitaxel (n=97).
KEYTRUDA Plus LENVIMA significantly reduced the risk of death by 38%, with a median overall survival of 18.3 months versus 11.4 months with chemotherapy regardless of mismatch repair status.
Aducanumab, an amyloid beta-targeting antibody, has been shown in clinical trials to remove amyloid beta in the brain and significantly slow clinical decline in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer’s disease and mild Alzheimer’s disease dementia.
The collaboration will use Wren’s network kinetics drug discovery platform, alongside Eisai’s extensive experience in drug discovery for neurodegenerative disorders, to accelerate the development of clinical candidates.
