ASH: Janssen keeps up CLL progress
The Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) subsidiary Janssen has presented new long-term follow-up data at the 2023 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting from the Phase III GLOW and Phase II CAPTIVATE studies of first-line, fixed-duration treatment with Imbruvica (ibrutinib) plus AbbVie’s (NYSE: ABBV) Venclexta (venetoclax).
The GLOW study demonstrated an estimated 84.5% overall survival (OS) rate at 54 months, among older or comorbid patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) treated with the combination, compared to 63.7% for patients treated with chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab.
"Deep and durable responses, including in higher-risk patients"Phase II results from the CAPTIVATE study, which used a similar Imbruvica and Venclexta regimen to the GLOW study, showed deep remissions with clinical meaningful progression-free survival (PFS) with this combination.
