Relay Therapeutics presented promising data on Zovegalisib for HR‑positive, HER2‑negative breast cancer and vascular anomalies at the Wells Fargo Healthcare Conference, highlighting an improved safety profile versus competitors. In second‑line therapy, Zovegalisib achieved a median progression‑free survival of 11 months versus 5.5 months for capivasertib; the phase III ReDiscover‑2 trial is recruiting faster than expected. In vascular anomalies, an early cohort showed a response rate of 60%, with 400 mg once daily favored as the preferred dose. Management expects FDA feedback on regulatory pathways before the end of 2024 and is preparing to transition to a commercial business model. » More on de.investing.com
