“This conditional approval represents significant progress for the patients we serve who have been diagnosed with advanced HER2-positive BTC,” said Robert Iannone, MD., M.S.C.E., executive vice president, global head of research and development, and chief medical officer of Jazz Pharmaceuticals. “Ziihera is the first HER2-targeted therapy authorized in the European Union specifically for this population, and the European Commission’s decision reflects both the strength of the HERIZON-BTC-01 data and the urgency for innovation in rare gastrointestinal cancers.
