AT A GLANCE: FRANK†

“I knew my CLL relapsing was a possibility, but I was still disappointed by the news. My doctor and I are hopeful about the next stage of my treatment.”

✦ Age: 83

✦ Retired veterinarian

✦ No other comorbidities noted

✦ Does not have del17p or any other genomic abnormalities such as 11q deletion or TP53 mutation, or high ECOG score

ECOG: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group† Fictitious patient. Individual results may vary.

WOULD YOU CONSIDER FRANK A CANDIDATE FOR CALQUENCE TO TREAT HIS PREVIOUSLY TREATED CLL?

Initial Diagnosis:Rai stage III chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)

CALQUENCE WAS EVALUATED IN RELAPSED OR REFRACTORY (R/R) CLL PATIENTS1

Selected baseline characteristics Patients in the ASCEND trial

≥65 years of age 63%

ECOG score of 0 or 1 87%

Rai stage III or IV disease 42%

Median number of prior therapies (range) 1 (1-8)

The safety and efficacy profiles of CALQUENCE in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL were evaluated in a randomized, multi-centre, open-label Phase 3 study (ASCEND) of 310 patients who received at least one prior therapy. Patients were randomized to receive CALQUENCE monotherapy or investigator’s choice of either idelalisib plus rituximab (IR) or bendamustine plus rituximab (BR). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by IRC. PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first IRC-assessed disease progression or death due to any cause. The assessment of progressive disease was per the IWCLL 2008 criteria with incorporation of the clarification for treatment-related lymphocytosis.1

✦ Bendamustine + rituximab2 ✦ Stable disease for 1.5 years ✦ Has progressive disease

CONSIDER CALQUENCE FOR PREVIOUSLY TREATED CLL PATIENTS

CALQUENCE Demonstrated Safety Profile1

✦The overall safety profile of CALQUENCE is based on pooled data from 1,029 patients with hematologic malignancies receiving CALQUENCE monotherapy (n=820) or in combination with obinutuzumab (n=209).

✦The most common (≥20%) adverse drug reactions of any grade reported in patients receiving CALQUENCE were infection, headache, diarrhea, musculoskeletal pain, bruising, fatigue, nausea, and rash.

✦The most frequently reported (≥2%) serious adverse reaction was pneumonia (5%).

✦Dose reductions and interruptions due to adverse events (AEs) were reported in 5% and 39% of patients, respectively. Discontinuations due to AEs were reported in 10% of the patients.

CALQUENCE demonstrated a 69% statistically significant reduction in the risk of disease progression or death compared to investigator’s choice of IR or BR (17% vs. 44%; HR 0.31, 95% CI 0.20-0.49; p<0.0001)1

✦ At a median follow-up of 16.1 months, PFS as assessed by IRC indicated a 69% relative reduction in the risk of a PFS event for patients who received CALQUENCE compared to patients who received the investigator’s choice of therapy (17% vs. 44%; HR 0.31, 95% CI 0.20-0.49; p<0.0001).

✦ At the time of analysis, median overall survival had not been reached in any arm.

Median PFS for CALQUENCE was not reached compared to PFS of 16.5 months with IR or BR.1

Inactivation of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) maintained with twice-daily dosing1

✦ CALQUENCE maintained median steady state BTK occupancy of ≥95% in peripheral blood over 12 hours, resulting in inactivation of BTK throughout the recommended dosing interval.

BR and IR: investigator’s choice of bendamustine + rituximab (BR) or idelalisib + rituximab (IR); HR: hazard ratio; CI: confidence interval
