FS-118 is under clinical development by F-star Therapeutics and currently in Phase II for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma. According to GlobalData, Phase II drugs for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma have a 42% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Phase III. GlobalData’s report assesses how FS-118’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

FS-118 overview

FS-118 is under development for the treatment of metastatic solid tumor including head and neck cancer squamous cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) . The drug candidate is a mAb-square immuno-regulatory monoclonal antibody administered intravenously. The therapeutic candidate consists of Fcab region in place of normal Fc region. It is a bi-specific antibody against two checkpoint inhibitors. The drug candidate acts by targeting programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG-3).

GlobalData

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in its clinical pathway (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a proprietary algorithm built from the drugs’ sales forecast, regulatory milestones, cost forecasts, WACC rate and other proprietary data sources found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
