Heritage: A phase III safety and efficacy trial of the proposed trastuzumab biosimilar Myl-1401O versus Herceptin

Background: Trastuzumab has revolutionized treatment of HER2+ breast cancer. Globally accessible alternatives are a critical need. We evaluated Myl-1401O, a proposed trastuzumab biosimilar, as treatment for HER2+ metastatic breast cancer (MBC), based on physicochemical analyses, nonclinical, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies*. Methods: Heritage is a double-blind, randomized clinical trial designed to evaluate comparative efficacy and safety of Myl-1401O vs Herceptin. Eligible patients (pts) had ..
