Merck: new approval for Lynparza in Japan
(CercleFinance.com) - AstraZeneca and Merck announce that the Japanese health authorities have approved their tablet Lynparza (olaparib) for patients with metastatic breast cancer who have previously received chemotherapy.
This endorsement - the second for the product in Japan after that of ovarian cancer - is based on data from the OlympiAD Phase III trial, which demonstrated a significantly longer progression-free survival of the disease.
