Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced groundbreaking results from the Phase 3 MARIPOSA study published in The New England Journal of Medicine. The study evaluated RYBREVANT® plus LAZCLUZE® for first-line treatment of EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer.
The combination therapy demonstrated statistically significant improvement in overall survival compared to osimertinib, with a projected survival exceeding four years - more than one year longer than the current standard of care. At 37.8 months median follow-up, the treatment showed a significant reduction in death risk (HR: 0.75, P=0.005).
The drug combination's triple mode of action targets EGFR mutations, blocks MET, and engages the immune system, potentially changing the disease's natural progression by reducing resistance mechanisms. The safety profile remained consistent with previous analyses, with most adverse events occurring early in treatment.
