Astrazeneca plc’s good news with its oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) and estrogen receptor antagonist, camizestrant, when used as part of a combo in breast cancer raised optimism for the approach, which has caught on in various biopharma quarters.
Astrazeneca plc officials, during the firm’s Feb. 11 conference call on fourth-quarter earnings, highlighted the oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) camizestrant in breast cancer (BC), which Cristian Massacesi, head of late-stage oncology development, said bears “best-in-class potential, in terms of providing superior clinical benefit at a well-tolerated dose” of 75 mg once per day.
