This milestone reinforces our commitment to advancing biomarker-driven therapies that address serious unmet needs and improve patient outcomes. We are actively recruiting for our global Phase 3 trial in first-line HER2-positive BTC and continue to explore zanidatamab’s potential in other HER2-expressing tumors.”
