Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Up to 24 months

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants whose best overall response (BOR) was complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) among participants in the Evaluable Population assessed per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). ORR was based on investigator assessed BOR. Per RECIST v1.1 for target lesions, CR was disappearance of all target tumor lesions (TLs) and all target lymph nodes (LNs) with short axis \<10mm. PR was ≥30% decrease in sum of diameters (SOD) from Baseline, and not progressive disease (PD) (≥20% increase in SOD from previous smallest SOD on study, and an absolute increase of ≥5mm).

Secondary Endpoints

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Up to 24 Months
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Up to 24 months
Time to Progression (TTP)
Up to 24 months

Frequently asked questions about Poziotinib

What is Poziotinib used for?

Poziotinib is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of breast cancer, specifically HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. It is in Phase 2 clinical development and has been evaluated in a completed trial of 67 participants with this condition. It is not described as an approved therapy.

What does Poziotinib target?

Poziotinib targets ERBB2 (HER2), EGFR, ERBB4, and ERBB3. It is classified as an inhibitor of these receptor tyrosine kinases. By inhibiting these targets, it is designed to interfere with signaling pathways that drive tumor growth in cancers such as HER2-positive breast cancer.

Who is developing Poziotinib?

Poziotinib is being developed by Assertio Holdings, Inc., which trades under the ticker ASRT. The company is responsible for the clinical development of the drug in oncology, including the completed Phase 2 study in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.

What phase is Poziotinib in?

Poziotinib is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 2 trial in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. There are currently no active trials listed for this drug. It is an investigational agent and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication.

What clinical trials is Poziotinib in?

Poziotinib has been studied in a completed Phase 2 trial, NCT02659514, titled "Study of Poziotinib in Participants With HER2-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer." The trial enrolled 67 participants in the United States and included adults 18 years and older of all sexes.

Is Poziotinib the same as [14C]-Poziotinib?

Yes, [14C]-Poziotinib is an alternative name for Poziotinib. The carbon-14 labeled form is used in research settings, but both refer to the same active drug substance. Poziotinib is the primary name used in clinical development by Assertio Holdings, Inc.
