Frequently asked questions about Zanidatamab

What is Zanidatamab?

Zanidatamab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being developed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc for HER2-expressing cancers. It is in Phase 3 clinical development for biliary tract cancer, breast cancer, gastric neoplasms, gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma, and other HER2-positive or HER2-expressing solid tumors. It has received FDA Fast Track, Orphan Drug, and Breakthrough Therapy designations.

What does Zanidatamab target?

Zanidatamab targets ERBB2, also known as HER2, and acts as an inhibitor of this receptor. By binding HER2, it is designed to interfere with signaling that drives tumor growth in HER2-expressing cancers, including HER2-positive breast cancer, biliary tract cancer, and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.

Who makes Zanidatamab?

Zanidatamab is developed by Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc, which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker JAZZ. Jazz Pharmaceuticals is the sponsor of the clinical development program evaluating zanidatamab across HER2-expressing solid tumors and HER2-positive breast cancer.

What phase is Zanidatamab in?

Zanidatamab is in Phase 3 clinical development. It is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA. The Phase 3 program includes a study comparing zanidatamab to trastuzumab, each combined with physician's choice chemotherapy, in patients with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer.

What clinical trials is Zanidatamab in?

Zanidatamab is being studied in several recruiting trials. NCT06435429 is a Phase 3 study in metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer. Phase 2 trials include NCT07192068 in solid tumors with HER2 gene alterations, NCT07102381 in neoadjuvant HER2-positive breast cancer, and NCT06695845 in HER2-expressing tumors. Total planned enrollment across these studies is approximately 980 participants.

What is Zanidatamab used for in biliary tract cancer?

Zanidatamab is being developed for biliary tract cancer among its HER2-expressing cancer indications. It holds FDA Orphan Drug, Fast Track, and Breakthrough Therapy designations, which are intended to support development in serious conditions. The clinical program also covers breast cancer, gastric neoplasms, and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.
