Based on the results of a Phase III trial (CHAPTER-GIST-301 trial) comparing the efficacy and safety of Jeselhy versus placebo in patients with previously treated gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST),*1Jeselhy received manufacturing and marketing approval in June for the indication of GIST that has progressed after chemotherapy.



Taiho Pharmaceutical will promote the proper use of Jeselhy tablets for treating GIST, for which there are major unmet medical needs, to ensure that it can contribute to the needs of patients with GIST and healthcare professionals.

About CHAPTER-GIST-301 Trial​

This was a randomized, double-blind, Phase III clinical trial comparing Jeselhy with placebo in patients with GIST judged to be refractory to or intolerant of standard treatments. The primary endpoint in this trial was progression-free survival (PFS) and the secondary endpoint measures included overall survival (OS) and safety, as well as quality of life (QOL). Eighty-six patients with GIST who were at least 20 years old, and had previously been treated with imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib, were enrolled between October 2018 and April 2020 from six Japanese medical institutions specialized in GIST.

About GIST (Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor)​

GIST develops in the walls of the gastrointestinal tract (frequently in the stomach and small intestine and rarely in the large intestine and esophagus) and is a type of malignant tumor (sarcoma) that causes metastasis and relapses. It has different characteristics than gastric and colorectal cancers that develop from mucous membrane.*2 The incidence in Japan is estimated to be roughly 1,500 to 2,500 patients per year (calculated based on the annual incidence rate reported in different countries),*3 making it a rare cancer. In many cases of GIST, there are mutations in the KIT and PDGFRA genes, which are involved in the growth and survival of cancer. All GIST treatments approved by the three regulatory authorities of Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) have as their main mechanism of action the inhibition of receptor tyrosine kinases KIT and PDGFRA. There is an unmet medical need for a therapeutic agent to treat GIST that remains after treatment with the drugs currently approved.

About HSP90 (Heat Shock Protein 90)​

Cells are constantly exposed to various stresses within the body. Cancer cells in particular are exposed to a lot of stress in the form of hypoxia, malnutrition, elimination by the immune system, and genetic instability. Expression of HSP90 increases in response to stress, protecting cells from stress and promoting cell survival by maintaining the structural and functional integrity of proteins.
HSP90 is overexpressed and exists in a highly active state in cancer cells and tumor tissue, where it is known to be especially important in the survival and maintenance of cancer. Furthermore, it has been reported that the expression of HSP90 in GIST, bladder cancer, acute myelocytic leukemia, breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and melanoma correlates with cancer progression and/or a patient’s prognosis​
