BioNTech SE...and Duality Biologics...announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for BNT323/DB-1303 for the treatment of advanced endometrial cancer in patients who progressed on or after treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. BNT323/DB-1303 is a next-generation antibody-drug conjugate (“ADC”) candidate targeting the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (“HER2”), a cell surface protein which is expressed in a range of tumor types. The designation is based on encouraging topline data from a Phase 1/2 study (NCT05150691) with BNT323/DB-1303 in patients with HER2-expressing advanced endometrial cancer.
