Likelihood of approval
13.3% vs 15.3% industry baseline
If approved by FDA: likely 2031–2034
Steps remaining: Phase 3 → NDA/BLA submission
Confidence: Medium
Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 2 → approval rate +15.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 2 drugs reach approval ~15.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
  • Oncology Phase 2 attrition -2.0pp
    Oncology drugs have higher Phase 2-to-Phase 3 attrition than average — many fail to show OS benefit in larger studies.

Mechanism of action

DCL-101 works by selectively binding to the KRAS G12C mutation, preventing the protein from interacting with downstream effectors and thereby inhibiting the MAPK signaling pathway. This leads to a decrease in cancer cell proliferation and an increase in apoptosis. The KRAS G12C mutation is a common driver mutation in non-small cell lung cancer and other solid tumors.
