    Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in women worldwide


    ARV-471 is a selective, orally bioavailable proteolytic targeting chimera (PROTAC) small molecule that can induce the degradation of wild-type and mutant ER


    On December 10, at the 44th San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (2021 SABCS), ARV-471 updated the safety and activity data for the first time in patients with ER+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer


    The study used a conventional 3+3 dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary effects of oral ARV-471 in pre/postmenopausal women with ER+/HER2-locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer Anti-tumor activity

    As of September 30, 2021, 60 patients have been treated in the phase 1 dose escalation cohort, and the total daily dose of ARV-471 ranges from 30 mg to 700 mg


    The most common (≥10%) treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) were mainly grade 1 nausea (27%), fatigue (20%) and vomiting (10%)


    Preliminary pharmacokinetic data showed that the AUC24 and Cmax of ARV-471 ranged from 30 mg to 500 mg, showing a dose-related increase in plasma exposure


    PROTAC drugs were once seen by the industry as their solution to the drug resistance problem.

    Of course, there are many reasons for this phenomenon.

    In fact, in theory, the PROTAC drug molecule is a catalytic function, and if it is efficient enough, it can completely degrade the target protein

    In addition, experts pointed out that most patients with CDK4/6 inhibitor progression are ER-independent drug resistance.


    As far as the current data is concerned, the biggest advantage of ARV-471 is still safety.

    In July, Pfizer obtained ARV-471 global rights with an advance payment of US$650 million and a milestone payment of US$1.
