U.S. FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for BAY 2927088 for NSCLC Harboring HER2 Activating Mutations
“Early clinical evidence suggests that BAY 2927088, our investigational novel oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has the potential to benefit patients with NSCLC harboring a HER2 mutation that have progressed on a prior systemic therapy and currently have no other approved treatment available,” said Dominik Ruettinger, M.D., Ph.D., Head of Research and Early Development for Oncology at Bayer’s Pharmaceuticals Division. “This Breakthrough Therapy designation is a significant milestone in our relentless efforts to develop innovative therapies for the treatment of lung cancer characterized by specific genomic markers. We will continue working closely with the FDA to advance BAY 2927088 through the clinic and look forward to providing these patients with lung cancer and their physicians with a targeted, effective treatment option.”
