Regeneron is now expecting an accelerated approval decision this summer on its T cell engager for one form of lymphoma, while it’s giving up on accelerated approval for a different form of the disease. The FDA last March rejected the biotech’s application for odronextamab over its confirmatory trial enrollment status in both follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Regeneron said Wednesday that the FDA set a decision deadline of July 30 for odronextamab in follicular lymphoma that has returned or is not responding to treatment. The drug would be for patients who have tried at least two previous lines of systemic therapy. However, Regeneron is no longer asking for accelerated approval in DLBCL. “Due to competitor developments, we no longer believe odronextamab in R/R DLBCL has an accelerated approval path and therefore, we plan to seek full approval pending data from ongoing Phase 3 studies,” a Regeneron spokesperson told Endpoints News via email. In DLBCL, Roche announced in December that a Phase 3 study showed its T cell engager Columvi plus chemotherapy led to a statistically significant improvement in overall survival, and it’s expecting an FDA decision to update the drug’s label in July. In order to ask for approval now, Regeneron would likely also need to show a survival benefit in a late-stage study. That’s likely to delay Regeneron’s US expansion of odronextamab into DLBCL, the more common form of lymphoma between the two, by years. Regeneron’s Phase 3 trial in DLBCL is expected to wrap up in 2028, according to a federal clinical trials database . Odronextamab is a bispecific antibody that targets two proteins found on cells: CD20 on malignant B cells, and CD3 on T cells. By bridging the two, the hope is that the therapy will lead the immune system to kill the cancer cells. If approved, odronextamab would be the fourth CD20xCD3 bispecific to make it to market in the US. AbbVie and Genmab market Epkinly, while Roche subsidiary Genentech markets two CD20xCD3 bispecifics in Lunsumio and Columvi. Regeneron said Wednesday that the FDA accepted its application for follicular lymphoma after achieving “an FDA-mandated enrollment target” for its confirmatory trial, though it declined to specify what that target was. The biotech noted that was the “sole approvability issue” raised by the FDA in its last submission . Regeneron said in February that the study was over 40% enrolled, and according to a federal clinical trials database, the Phase 3 confirmatory study is expected to enroll 478 patients. The FDA has been calling for faster confirmatory trials, suggesting they should be “well underway” at the time of an accelerated approval. Regeneron is asking for approval for follicular lymphoma based on clinical trial data that showed 80% of patients responded to treatment, with 74% seeing all signs of their cancer disappear. In the EU, odronextamab was approved in August and is marketed as Ordspono for both indications after two-plus lines of systemic therapy. The FDA last week set a July 10 decision deadline for Regeneron’s multiple myeloma bispecific linvoseltamab, which it previously rejected over manufacturing issues . Editor’s note: This story was corrected to reflect that the PDUFA date for linvoseltamab is July 10, not August 22.

Basel, 30 January 2025 Group sales grew by 7%1 at constant exchange rates (CER; 3% in CHF), driven by strong demand for both medicines and diagnostics.Excluding COVID-19, Group sales increased by 9%. COVID-19 will not adversely impact our results from 2025 onwards.The fourth quarter was the third consecutive quarter of 9% sales growth, highlighting the very positive momentum.Pharmaceuticals Division sales rose by 8% (excluding COVID-19 medicine: 9%) on growing demand for newer medicines; top growth drivers were Vabysmo (severe eye diseases), Phesgo (breast cancer), Ocrevus (multiple sclerosis) and Hemlibra (haemophilia A).Diagnostics Division sales increased by 4%, reflecting the base effect of the sales of COVID-19 tests in the prior-year period; strong momentum in the Diagnostics Division’s base business continued with an increase of 8% due to higher demand for immunodiagnostic, pathology and molecular solutions.Core operating profit grew by 14% (8% in CHF), driven by higher sales, improved gross margin and effective cost management; core earnings per share rose by 7% (1% in CHF).Core earnings per share excluding the impact of the resolution of tax disputes in 2023 rose by 12%, exceeding the guidance for 2024.IFRS net income decreased by 19% (26% in CHF), mainly due to impairment charges to goodwill related to Flatiron Health and Spark Therapeutics.Operating free cash flow increased by 34% (CER) to CHF 20.1 billion.Highlights: Launch of cobas Mass Spec, a transformative innovation in mass spectrometryEU approval for Vabysmo prefilled syringeUS acceptance of supplemental Biologics License Application for Columvi combinationPositive data on blood cancer medicines Columvi, Lunsumio and Polivy, eye medicine Vabysmo, Duchenne muscular dystrophy medicine Elevidys and breast cancer therapy ItovebiAcquisition of Poseida Therapeutics for a range of potentially first- and best-in-class cell therapies across oncology, immunology and neurologyCE mark for new and updated molecular cobas 6800/8800 systems for enhanced laboratory efficiency and testing capabilities Board proposes dividend increase to CHF 9.70. If approved by shareholders, this would be the 38th consecutive dividend increase. Outlook for 2025 Roche (SIX: RO, ROG; OTCQX: RHHBY) expects an increase in Group sales in the mid single digit range (CER). Core earnings per share are targeted to develop in the high single digit range (CER). Roche expects to further increase its dividend in Swiss francs.

In the fourth quarter, we continued our very positive momentum for the third consecutive quarter with Group sales growth of 9% (CER). Core earnings per share exceeded the guidance raised at half year. We are proud to have made a positive impact on patients’ lives in 2024 with the launch of two new medicines – Itovebi for a hard-to-treat breast cancer and PiaSky for a serious blood disorder – as well as our new solution for continuous blood glucose monitoring and our innovative system for fully automated mass spectrometry. Last year, we substantially strengthened our pipeline through the acceleration of internal key programmes and new partnerships and acquisitions such as Poseida Therapeutics for cell therapy in oncology and autoimmune diseases. Roche is well positioned for future growth.” Group resultsIn 2024, Roche achieved sales growth of 7% (3% in CHF) to CHF 60.5 billion. Core earnings per share rose by 12%, excluding the base effect of the resolution of tax disputes in 2023. Including this impact, core earnings per share increased by 7%. The appreciation of the Swiss franc against most currencies had a significant impact on the results reported in Swiss francs compared to constant exchange rates. Strong demand for both pharmaceutical products and diagnostic solutions more than made up for the expected decline of CHF 1.1 billion in COVID-19-related sales and an impact of CHF 1.0 billion from the loss of exclusivity on Avastin (various types of cancer), Herceptin (breast and gastric cancer), MabThera/Rituxan (blood cancer, rheumatoid arthritis), Esbriet (lung disease), Lucentis (severe eye diseases) and Actemra/RoActemra (rheumatoid arthritis, COVID-19). Core operating profit rose by 14% (8% in CHF) to CHF 20.8 billion, driven by higher sales, improved gross margin and effective cost management. IFRS net income decreased by 19% (26% in CHF) to CHF 9.2 billion, mainly due to impairment charges to goodwill of CHF 3.2 billion related to Flatiron Health and Spark Therapeutics. Sales in the Pharmaceuticals Division increased by 8% to CHF 46.2 billion, with newer medicines for severe diseases continuing their strong growth. The top four growth drivers – Vabysmo, Phesgo, Ocrevus and Hemlibra – achieved total sales of CHF 16.9 billion. This represents a plus of CHF 3.3 billion at CER compared to 2023. Vabysmo, launched in early 2022, continued to be a major growth driver, generating sales of CHF 3.9 billion on growing demand in all regions. Sales of Avastin, Herceptin, MabThera/Rituxan, Esbriet, Lucentis and Actemra/RoActemra decreased by a combined CHF 1.0 billion (CER) due to the impact of loss of exclusivity. Sales of the COVID-19 medicine Ronapreve were minimal compared to sales in Japan of CHF 0.5 billion in 2023. In the United States, sales rose by 9%. Vabysmo, Ocrevus, Xolair (allergies) and Polivy were the main growth drivers. This growth more than compensated for the decline in sales of Lucentis (severe eye diseases) and lower sales of medicines with expired patents. Sales in Europe grew 8% as sales growth due to the continued rollout of Vabysmo and the uptake of Phesgo, Ocrevus, Hemlibra and Evrysdi (spinal muscular atrophy) more than compensated for the decline in sales of medicines with expired patents, the impact of biosimilar competition on Actemra/RoActemra sales and lower sales of Perjeta (breast cancer) due to ongoing conversion of patients to Phesgo. In Japan, sales decreased by 16%, reflecting the base effect of Ronapreve sales in the first half of 2023 that did not reoccur in 2024. Excluding Ronapreve, sales in Japan fell by 2% as price cuts and biosimilar and generic erosion more than offset the growth in sales of Phesgo, Vabysmo and Hemlibra. Sales in the International region grew by 17%, led by China, Canada and Brazil. In China, sales rose by 6%, driven by continued sales growth of Perjeta, Alecensa (early-stage lung cancer) and Avastin as well as higher sales of Xofluza (influenza) and the rollout of Polivy. The Diagnostics Division’s base business sales increased by 8%, led by the increased demand for immunodiagnostic products and by higher sales of clinical chemistry tests, advanced staining solutions and companion diagnostics. Overall, the Diagnostics Division reported sales growth of 4% to CHF 14.3 billion, reflecting the anticipated drop in demand for COVID-19-related products (sales of CHF 0.2 billion in 2024 compared to CHF 0.8 billion in 2023). Sales in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region increased by 5%, driven by higher sales of immunodiagnostic products, clinical chemistry tests and advanced staining solutions. In North America, there was growth in the underlying base business across customer areas. Sales in Asia-Pacific decreased by 5% as higher sales of immunodiagnostic products were offset by the expected drop in demand for COVID-19-related tests. Pharmaceuticals Division: pipelineWith 71 new molecular entities (NMEs) and a total of 122 projects, Roche has a promising pipeline with a wide variety of therapeutic approaches. Pharmaceuticals research and development (R&D) expenditure grew by 1% to CHF 11.1 billion (Group R&D: 1% to CHF 13.0 billion). Oncology remained the primary area for R&D, with substantial investments also in the areas of immunology and cardiovascular, renal and metabolism. Pharmaceuticals: key developments Compound Milestone Regulatory VabysmoSevere eye diseases Vabysmo prefilled syringe (PFS) is now approved in the EU for three retinal conditions that can cause blindness Vabysmo PFS is the first and only prefilled syringe containing a bispecific antibody, offering a convenient alternative to currently available Vabysmo vials.Vabysmo has demonstrated rapid and robust vision and anatomical improvements in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), diabetic macular edema (DME) and retinal vein occlusion (RVO).The ready-to-use Vabysmo PFS is co-packaged with the only CE-marked needle specifically designed for intravitreal injection.

More information: Media Release, 28 January 2025 ElevidysDuchenne muscular dystrophy Roche announces new results from EMBARK, demonstrating significant sustained benefits of Elevidys in ambulatory individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) Across three key functional outcomes, North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA), Time to Rise (TTR) and 10-metre walk/run (10MWR), results were statistically significant and clinically meaningful two years after treatment with Elevidys, compared to a pre-specified propensity-weighted untreated external control group.Functional differences between individuals treated with Elevidys and those in the external control group increased between one year and two years after treatment.No new safety signals were observed, further reinforcing the consistent and manageable safety profile observed with Elevidys to date. More information: Media Release, 27 January 2025 PrasinezumabParkinson’s disease Phase IIb study of prasinezumab misses primary endpoint, but suggests possible benefit in early-stage Parkinson’s disease PADOVA study showed numerical delay in motor progression and positive trends on multiple secondary and exploratory endpoints.Prasinezumab continues to be well tolerated and no new safety signals were observed.Roche is further evaluating the data and will work together with health authorities to determine next steps. More information: Media Release, 19 December 2024 Columvi/LunsumioBlood cancer New and updated data for fixed-duration Columvi and Lunsumio presented at annual meeting of American Society of Hematology (ASH) 2024 reinforce their potential to improve outcomes for people with lymphoma Long-term data confirm fixed-duration Columvi and Lunsumio achieve durable remissions beyond the end of treatment, with real-world data suggesting reduced treatment-related travel burden due to less frequent dosing.First presentation of Lunsumio given subcutaneously showed non-inferiority to intravenous treatment with a consistent safety profile, potentially providing an additional outpatient option with a shorter administration time.Positive results for Roche’s two bispecifics antibodies validate the company’s efforts to provide multiple treatment options that suit the diverse needs of lymphoma patients and healthcare providers. More information: Media Release, 10 December 2024 PolivyBlood cancer Five-year results confirm Polivy combination therapy as new standard of care for previously untreated aggressive lymphoma Exploratory long-term follow-up analysis of the phase III POLARIX study indicated a positive trend in overall survival in favour of Polivy in combination with R-CHP for the first-line treatment of people with DLBCL.Patients treated with Polivy in combination with R-CHP required fewer subsequent treatments, which potentially reduces the burden on patients and healthcare systems.These encouraging five-year results continue to highlight the potential of this Polivy combination to improve outcomes in the first-line treatment of people with DLBCL, an area that had little advancement in nearly two decades.
