Abstract
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Review all approved companion diagnostics (CDxs) labeling for therapeutic class language. Examine the regulatory pathways of CDx products whose labels contain therapeutic class labeling. Develop recommendations for pharmaceutical industry professionals on best practices in the co-development of CDxs and oncology therapeutic products. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Literature discussing companion diagnostics was reviewed from EBSCOhost, PubMed, and OVID. The Intended Use language within CDx labels on the Food and Drug Administrations “List of Cleared or Approved Companion Diagnostic Devices (In Vitro and Imaging Tools)” website were reviewed on November 1, 2021 for therapeutics class language. For CDx products with therapeutic class label language, the regulatory history was evaluated to determine the development approach taken to achieve the language. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: A total of 45 CDxs were identified, of which only 2 contained therapeutic class labeling, both of which were devices for the identification of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Three additional EGFR CDxs were approved; however, they did not contain therapeutic class labeling. The first CDx was the Cobas EGFR Mutation Test V2, which received therapeutic group label language as an update on October 27, 2020; however, prior to the therapeutic class labeling, three oncology products were named in the Intended Use: Tarceva (erlotinib), Tagrisso (osimertinib), and Iressa (gefitinib). The second CDx to incorporate therapeutic class labeling was the ONCO/Reveal Diagnostic Lung and Colon Cancer Assay upon initial approval on July 30, 2021. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: EGFR CDxs are the first to shift towards therapeutic class labeling. Indication, molecular alterations, and mechanism of action of the approved therapeutic class products, number of products approved, as well as CDx analytical and clinical validation influence class label relevance. Discussions with the FDA are encouraged early in development.
