[{"type":"text","content":"\n-- Supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) Based on Statistically Significant and Clinically Meaningful Overall Survival and Progression-Free Survival Results from the Phase 3 TROPiCS-02 Study --\n\n FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nGilead Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: GILD) today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for priority review the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Trodelvy® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy) for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic hormone receptor (HR) positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative (IHC 0, IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH–) breast cancer who have received endocrine-based therapy and at least two additional systemic therapies in the metastatic setting. The FDA grants priority review for therapies that, if approved, would be significant improvements in the safety or effectiveness of the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of serious conditions when compared to standard applications.

PFS data were presented at the 2022 ASCO Annual Meeting and published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, and OS data were recently presented at ESMO Congress 2022. In the study, Trodelvy demonstrated a 34% reduction in risk of disease progression or death (median PFS: 5.5 versus 4 months; hazard ratio [HR]: 0.66; 95%...
