Merck KGaA said Friday that it has discontinued a Phase 2 trial
for berzosertib in combination with topotecan in patients with
relapsed, platinum-resistant small-cell lung cancer.
The German pharmaceuticals and chemicals company said that,
following an interim analysis, the study was discontinued due to
low probability of meeting the pre-defined objective of the
trial.
"SCLC remains a difficult-to-treat disease, with minimal
advances in the past 20 years," Merck said, adding that it will
continue external studies exploring berzosertib in additional
combinations and clinical settings.
