AstraZeneca said late Friday that interim analysis of the phase III study regarding its Imfinzi drug together with chemotherapy significantly improved pathologic complete response in gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers.

The Anglo-Swedish pharma giant said that the trial demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in the key secondary endpoint of pathologic complete response in patients with resectable, early-stage and locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers.

The company said that the trial will continue as planned to assess overall survival data.
