AbbVie announced promising results from an integrated analysis of two Phase 3 studies regarding the use of IMBRUVICA in treating high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. The long-term follow-up showed similar progression-free survival (PFS) and overall response rates (ORR) in high-risk and non-high-risk patients. With data spanning up to 8 years, the study demonstrated sustained efficacy of IMBRUVICA, significantly improving outcomes for patients with known poor prognostic markers. These findings underscore the importance of appropriate biomarker testing in optimizing treatment strategies for CLL patients.
AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) presented new Phase 3 MURANO and CLL14 trial results at the 62nd ASH Annual Meeting, emphasizing the effectiveness of VENCLEXTA/VENCLYXTO in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The MURANO trial showed a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 53.6 months with VenR versus 17.0 months with BR. The overall survival (OS) estimate was 82.1% for VenR compared to 62.2% for BR. In the CLL14 trial, uMRD levels indicated better PFS outcomes. These results highlight VENCLEXTA's potential to improve patient outcomes significantly.
AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) presented new data from the Phase 2 CAPTIVATE trial at the 2020 ASH Annual Meeting, showcasing the efficacy of IMBRUVICA® (ibrutinib) combined with VENCLEXTA®/VENCLYXTO® (venetoclax) for treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The results indicated a one-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate of 100% for patients receiving ibrutinib compared to 95.3% for placebo. This combination also demonstrated high rates of undetectable minimal residual disease (uMRD). The study's findings support a potential fixed-duration treatment option for CLL/SLL patients.
