Servier To Showcase Clinical Advances Across its Oncology Pipeline at ESMO 2023

Servier data at ESMO to include updates in research and development across solid tumors, including IDH-mutant diffuse glioma, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer

Paris, France – 19 October, 2023 – Servier, a leader in oncology committed to bringing the promise of tomorrow to the patients we serve, will present data across its novel oncology pipeline at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) annual meeting in Madrid, Spain, October 20-24, 2023. These latest data highlight the breadth of Servier’s oncology pipeline and portfolio, as well as its commitment to scientific research and development for patients with high unmet needs in rare disease cancers.

“Servier is honored to bring a portfolio of data from across rare disease solid tumors to this year’s ESMO congress,” said Walid S. Kamoun, Global Head of R&D Oncology of the Servier Group. “We continue to invest significantly in oncology across the globe, and the data being presented at ESMO reflects both our commitment to the scientific research and development in rare oncology diseases, as well as our commitment to patients with high unmet needs who are often overlooked in cancer research.”

Data being presented at the congress include:

  • Proffered paper from INDIGO: a randomized, double-blinded, Phase 3 study of vorasidenib versus placebo in IDH1 or IDH2 mutant diffuse glioma,
  • Post-hoc analyses from the Phase 3 SUNLIGHT trial in metastatic colorectal cancer,
  • Overall and progression-free survival of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer from Servier’s international, non-interventional, retrospective/prospective, longitudinal PROMETCO cohort study,
  • Data in treatment-naïve metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas from the NAPOLI-3 trial, sponsored by Ipsen.

“As Servier’s global footprint continues to expand, our leadership in oncology will be on full display at ESMO 2023, as evidenced by our continued investments in R&D, access and patient care,” said François Druguet, Head of Global Product Strategy Oncology of the Servier Group. “2023 has been an unprecedented year across our diversified portfolio, and we look forward to engaging with the HCP and patient communities at ESMO while reinforcing our commitment toward therapeutic progress in oncology.”
