Efficacy results from the EPCORETM NHL-1 study1

The median follow-up time was 15.7 months (range: 0.3-23.5)

 

Overall response rate (primary endpoint)1

ORR is based on Lugano Criteria (2014) as assessed by Independent Review Committee

Complete response and median duration of response (secondary endpoints)1

Median time to CR was 2.6 months (1.2-10.2)1

− mDOR (CR and PR) in patients who achieved a CR was 17.3 months (95% CI, 15.6-NR) vs. 2.1 months (95% CI, 1.4-3.1) for those who achieved a PR1


Updated efficacy results from the EPCORETM NHL-1 study:
2-year follow-up4

  • Median follow-up time: 25.5 months (95% CI, 24.4-26.1)
  • mDOR: 17.3 months (95% Cl, 9.7-26.5)

Median time to CR was 2.6 months (range: 1.2-23.2)

Estimated patients with CR remaining in CR at 12 months: 77.4% (95% CI, 62.9–86.8) (N=56)

Estimated patients with CR remaining in CR at 24 months: 61.8% (95% CI, 44.9–74.9) (N=56)
 

Overall survival (secondary endpoint)3,4

The mOS was 19.4 months (95% CI, 11.7-NR) among DLBCL patients at the 20-month follow-up3

 

Overall survival of patients with DLBCL (median follow-up: 20 months)3


Tepkinly has a generally manageable safety profile1

The safety of epcoritamab was evaluated in a non-randomised, single-arm study in 167 patients with relapsed or refractory LBCL after two or more lines of systemic therapy, and included all the patients who enrolled to the 48 mg dose and received at least one dose of epcoritamab.

The following adverse reactions have been reported with epcoritamab during clinical studies and post-marketing experience.

Adverse reactions reported in patients in EPCORE™ NHL-11

Adverse reactions for Tepkinly from clinical studies are listed by MedDRA system organ class and are based on the following convention: very common (≥1/10); common (≥1/100 to <1/10); uncommon (≥1/1,000 to <1/100); rare (≥1/10,000 to <1/1,000); and very rare (<1/10,000).

 

 

*EPCORE NHL-1 enrolled patients with ECOG status 0-2, de novo DLBCL, DLBCL transformed from indolent lymphoma, CAR-T naïve, prior CAR-T, and primary refractory disease.
Patients who had relapsed or were refractory to prior CAR-T cell therapy were eligible if ≥30 days since last CAR-T cell treatment.
ORR was determined by Lugano criteria (2014) as assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC)
§A patient is considered to be primary refractory if they are refractory to frontline anti-lymphoma therapy.
||A patient is considered to be refractory if they experience disease progression or stable disease as best response or disease progression within 6 months after therapy completion.
aPneumonia includes COVID-19 pneumonia and pneumonia.
bUpper respiratory tract infection includes laryngitis, pharyngitis, respiratory syncytial virus infection, rhinitis, rhinovirus infection, and upper respiratory tract infection.
cNeutropenia includes neutropenia and neutrophil count decreased.
dAnaemia includes anaemia and serum ferritin decreased.

fCRS and ICANS events were graded based on American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) criteria.
gTumour Lysis Syndrome was graded based on Cairo-Bishop.
hAbdominal pain includes abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, abdominal pain lower, abdominal pain upper, and abdominal tenderness.
iRash includes rash, rash erythematous, rash maculo-papular, and rash pustular.
jFatigue includes asthenia, fatigue, and lethargy.
