GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.
Atezolizumab overview

Tecentriq is indicated for the treatment of urothelial bladder cancer (second line), for the treatment of people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy, and have progressed on an appropriate FDA-approved targeted therapy if their tumor has EGFR or ALK gene abnormalities, locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who have disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy, have disease progression within 12 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy, for the treatment of people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) who are not eligible for cisplatin chemotherapy, and in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer (NSq NSCLC) with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations, and in combination with Avastin (bevacizumab), paclitaxel and carboplatin, for the first-line treatment of adults with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and in combination with chemotherapy (Abraxane [paclitaxel protein-bound particles for injectable suspension (albumin-bound); nab-paclitaxel]) for the treatment of adults with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in people whose tumors express PD-L1 (PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] of any intensity covering ≥ 1% of the tumor area), as determined by an FDA-approved test and in combination with abraxane, paclitaxel and carboplatin is indicated for the initial (first-line) treatment of adults with metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumour aberrations, and in combination with carboplatin and etoposide (chemotherapy), for the initial (first-line) treatment of adults with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Tecentriq, as a single agent, is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have high PD-L1 expression (PD-L1 stained ≥ 50% of tumor cells [TC ≥ 50%] or PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] covering ≥ 10% of the tumor area [IC ≥ 10%]), as determined by an FDA approved test, with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations, and in combination with bevacizumab (Tecentriq and Avastin) for patients with unresectable or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma who have not received prior systemic therapy. Tecentriq in combination with cobimetinib and vemurafenib for the treatment of patients with BRAF V600 mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Tecentriq as monotherapy, is indicated for the first-line treatment of patients with metastatic non-small lung cancer (nsclc) whose tumours have high pd-l1 expression (pd-l1 stained > 50% of tumour cells {tcs} or pdl-1 stained tumour-infiltrating immune cells (ics) covering > 10% of the tumour area) as deterimined by avalidated test and who do not have EGFR or ALK genomic tumour aberrations. Tecentriq is indicated for the treatment of PD-L1 positive, hormone receptor-negative and HER2-negative inoperable or recurrent breast cancer, homologous-recombination deficient (HRD) HER positive breast cancer, ovarian and uterine cancer.
