GILD: FDA Approves Trodelvy

Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD ) today announced that the U.S.

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Trodelvy® (sacituzumab govitecan-hziy), a first-in-class Trop-2-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), for the first-line treatment of adult patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC).

Trodelvy is now approved in first-line mTNBC either as a single agent for patients who are not candidates for PD-(L)1 inhibitor-based therapy or in combination with Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) or Keytruda Qlex™ (pembrolizumab and berahyaluronidase alfa-mph) for patients whose tumors express PD-L1 (CPS ≥10) as determined by an FDA-authorized test.
