エーザイ、新規線維芽細胞増殖因子(FGF)受容体選択的チロシンキナーゼ阻害剤E7090が日本においてFGFR2融合遺伝子を有する切除不能な胆道がんを予定される効能・効果として厚生労働省より希少疾病用医薬品に指定
東京, 2021年02月22日 - (JCN Newswire) - エーザイ株式会社(本社:東京都、代表執行役CEO:内藤晴夫)は、このたび、当社が創製し、経口投与可能な新規抗がん剤として開発中の線維芽細胞増殖因子(FGF)受容体(FGFR1、FGFR2、FGFR3)選択的チロシンキナーゼ阻害剤E7090について、FGFR2融合遺伝子を有する切除不能な胆道がんを予定される効能・効果として、厚生労働省より希少疾病用医薬品(オーファンドラッグ)に指定されたことをお知らせします。
FGFRの遺伝子異常はがん細胞の増殖、生存、遊走、腫瘍血管新生、薬剤耐性などに重要な役割を果たしていることが知られています。また、様々ながん腫においてFGFRの遺伝子異常が認められていることから、がん治療の有望な標的として注目されています。E7090は、FGFR1、2、3を選択的に阻害し、そのシグナルを遮断することにより、FGFRの遺伝子異常を有するがんに対する新たな分子標的治療薬となる可能性があります。
E7090は、日本において臨床第Ⅰ相試験を実施し、FGFR2融合遺伝子を有する切除不能な胆道がんに対する治療を対象に、厚生労働省の「先駆け審査指定制度」の対象品目に指定されています。現在、日本、中国においてFGFR2融合遺伝子を有する胆管がん患者様を対象とした臨床第II相試験(201試験)が進行中です。
当社は、がん領域を重点領域の一つと位置づけており、がんの「治癒」に向けた画期的な新薬創出をめざしています。E7090によるがん治療の可能性を引き続き追求し、がん患者様とそのご家族の多様なニーズの充足とベネフィット向上により一層貢献してまいります。
