Incyte’s monoclonal antibody Monjuvi reduced certain follicular lymphoma patients’ risk of progression, relapse or death by 57% compared to placebo, the company announced Monday. The Phase 3 data , presented ahead of this year’s American Society of Hematology meeting in December, come as Incyte plots an FDA submission in relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma. Monjuvi, also known as tafasitamab, was administered in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab, marketed under the brand names Revlimid and Rituxan by Bristol Myers Squibb and Biogen/Genentech, respectively. Revlimid and Rituxan are frequently used in patients who’ve failed at least one line of therapy. An Incyte spokesperson told Endpoints News on Monday that the company is on track to file for FDA approval by the end of this year. In the study, patients who received the Monjuvi combination achieved an investigator-assessed median progression-free survival of 22.4 months, compared to 13.9 months for patients who received only lenalidomide and rituximab, meeting the trial’s primary endpoint. Median progression-free survival was not reached in an assessment by an independent review committee, compared to a median of 16 months in the placebo arm. Researchers called the improvement in PFS “significant and clinically meaningful.” Relapse is common in patients with FL, and about 45% of patients in the Phase 3 trial had already received two or more lines of prior therapy. Patients in the Monjuvi arm achieved a median duration of response of 21.2 months, compared to 13.6 months in the placebo arm. Incyte said the overall survival data were immature at this time, but a trend favored patients taking Monjuvi. Treatment-emergent adverse events occurred at a similar rate in the treatment and placebo arms, and led to discontinuation by 11% of Monjuvi patients and 7% of placebo patients. Fatal adverse events occurred in six patients in each arm. Monjuvi was first approved in 2020 for a subset of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma. Then, earlier this year, Incyte picked up the global rights to Monjuvi from MorphoSys for $25 million upfront as MorphoSys was being acquired by Novartis. The companies had previously shared clinical development and commercialization costs in the US, while Incyte had exclusive rights outside of the US.
