IDEAYA announced a successful FDA Type C meeting to shape IDE849’s Phase 3 registrational trial in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). The study aims to enroll ~400 patients, randomizing IDE849 against an investigator's choice, with ORR by BICR for accelerated approval and median OS for full approval as endpoints. Data updates at ESMO 2026 and late-2026 progress may support a best-in-class profile and potential combination strategies with Imfinzi and IDE161.
