In the early 2000s, Broad Institute researchers found that the EGFR protein is mutated in lung cancer, sparking a revolution in targeted cancer treatment. But not all lung tumors respond to such treatments, leaving many patients with few options. In this Broad Discovery Series event, Heidi Greulich and Matthew Meyerson will describe the 20-year history of sevabertinib, a new lung cancer drug (and the first FDA-approved drug born of Broad science) that blocks both EGFR and the related HER2 protein; talk about the unmet need it fulfills, discuss the unique partnership behind its development, and explore drug development's evolving challenges.


This Broad Discovery Series talk will be held both in person and virtually. Those joining us in person are invited to a reception after the talk.
