Chugai opts in on Roche’s inavolisib

31 July 2024

Japanese drugmaker Chugai (TYO: 4519) has signed a license agreement with Swiss pharma giant Roche (ROG: SIX) for inavolisib.

The PI3K alpha inhibitor is currently in development for advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer (BC) with a PIK3CA mutation in combination with palbociclib and fulvestrant.

This partnership is evidence that Chugai, which is majority-owned by Roche, continues to use the research and development resources of the Basel-based group to find innovative new drugs.
