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.
Ramucirumab overview
Ramucirumab (Cyramza) is an antineoplastic agent. It is formulated as injection solution, concentrate solution for intravenous route o administration. Cyramza as a single agent, or in combination with paclitaxel, is indicated for the treatment of patients with advanced or metastatic, gastric or gastro-esophageal junction adenocarcinoma with disease progression on or after prior fluoropyrimidine-or platinum-containing chemotherapy, in combination with docetaxel, is indicated for the treatment of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with disease progression on or after platinum-based chemotherapy, in combination with FOLFIRI (irinotecan, folinic acid, and 5 -fluorouracil), is indicated for the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with disease progression on or after prior therapy with bevacizumab, oxaliplatin, and a fluoropyrimidine, and as a single agent for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients who have an alpha fetoprotein (AFP) of ≥400 ng/mL and have been previously treated with sorafenib. Cyramza in combination with erlotinib is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations.
The drug candidate is under development for the treatment of relapsed, recurrent, or refractory desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT), hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction, bladder cancer, urethral cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma, squamous non-small cell lung cancer, metastatic colorectal cancer, progressive carcinoid tumors, squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, gallbladder cancer, small-cell lung cancer and metastatic thymic carcinoma, gastroesophageal junction region (GEJ) cancer, pediatric solid tumors including CNS, non-CNS tumors.
