Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib), a non-covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, plus a two-year venetoclax and rituximab regimen versus venetoclax and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 45% (HR=0.55 [95% CI, 0.40-0.75]; p=0.0001), according to the results of the phase III BRUIN CLL-322 trial. The study met its primary endpoint of independent review committee-assessed progression-free survival.
Two drug combinations, Tecvayli (teclistamab-cqyv) + Talvey (talquetamab-tgvs), a BCMA and GPRC5D dual antigen targeting regimen, and Talvey + pomalidomide (Pomalyst, sponsored by Bristol Myers Squibb), demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in progression-free survival and overall survival compared with investigator’s choice standard of care for adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received 1 to 4 prior lines of therapy, including an anti-CD38 antibody and lenalidomide.
