Compound class:
Antibody
Comment: Zanidatamab (ZW25) is an anti-ERBB2 (HER2) monoclonal antibody [3]. It is biparatopic, meaning that it interacts with two independent extracellular epitopes on the ERBB2 receptor. Antibody binding induces ERBB2 internalisation, as well as CDC, ADCC and ADCP. The two epitopes are those bound by trastuzumab (ECD4) and pertuzumab (ECD2). Zanidatamab was designed to treat ERBB2 over-expressing advanced solid tumours, in particular types other than breast cancer [4].

Summary of Clinical Use ![]() |
Zanidatamab's first approval was granted by the FDA in November 2024 (accelerated approval), to treat previously treated, unresectable or metastatic ERBB2-positive biliary tract cancer [2]. Continued approval for this indication will be determined by the outcomes of the phase 3 HERIZON-BTC-302 trial (NCT06282575). The EMA issued zanidatamab orphan designation in November 2020 (EU/3/20/2353), for the treatment of gastric cancer. |
