AstraZeneca PLC said Monday that its Enhertu drug significantly delayed metastatic breast cancer progression in a Phase 3 trial, reinforcing the results of a prior trial.

The Anglo-Swedish pharma giant said results from the Destiny-Breast02 Phase 3 trial of Enhertu--trastuzumab deruxtecan--showed the trial met the primary endpoint, demonstrating a significant and clinically meaningful improvement in progression-free survival in patients.

Enhertu is being jointly developed and commercialized by AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo Ltd.
