US FDA Approves IBTROZI™ (taletrectinib) for Advanced ROS1-Positive NSCLC
“The FDA approval of IBTROZI marks a major milestone in the evolution of targeted therapy for advanced ROS1-positive NSCLC,” said David Hung, M.D., Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvation Bio. “We believe one of the greatest threats to ROS1-positive lung cancer patients is disease progression, especially in the first-line setting. In pivotal trials, IBTROZI delivered high response rates with sustained durability—truly meaningful benefits for patients. With its clinically proven efficacy and safety profile, we believe IBTROZI has the potential to become a new standard for what targeted therapies can achieve in this type of lung cancer. With approvals for IBTROZI now in the U.S. and China, and additional global filings underway, we remain committed to delivering innovative therapies that help patients stay ahead of their disease.”
