In addition, new results for our novel T-cell engager, AZD0486, will reinforce its promising clinical profile in lymphomas, and data for our novel CAR T cell therapy, AZD0120, will highlight the potential of this therapy to transform treatment in multiple myeloma.\"\nChristophe Hotermans, Senior Vice President, Head of Global Medical Affairs, Alexion, said: \"Our ASH presentations will highlight the transformative impact of our medicines, including new analyses from the ALPHA Phase III trial reaffirming the safety and efficacy of our first-in-class Factor D inhibitor, VOYDEYA™ as add-on to ULTOMIRIS® or SOLIRIS® for the subset of patients with PNH experiencing clinically significant extravascular hemolysis. Further, new insights from our robust pipeline will enhance the understanding of several rare hematologic and cardiovascular conditions, underscoring our commitment to innovation in rare disease.\"\nCALQUENCE combinations demonstrate significant benefits across CLL and MCL\nAn oral presentation on interim results from the pivotal AMPLIFY Phase III trial will demonstrate the potential of fixed-duration CALQUENCE in combination with venetoclax, with or without obinutuzumab, in previously untreated adults with CLL compared to standard-of-care chemoimmunotherapy.1 These results will be featured during the ASH Press Briefing on Sunday, December 9.\nAn updated analysis from the pivotal ECHO Phase III trial will further highlight the use of CALQUENCE in combination with bendamustine and rituximab as a first-line treatment option by demonstrating high and durable undetectable minimal residual disease (MRD) rates in previously untreated patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) as well as showing the benefit of CALQUENCE across all patients including those with high-risk disease characteristics.2 Results from ECHO were first presented as a late-breaking oral presentation at the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2024 Hybrid Congress in June.3\nResults will also be shared from the ChangE Phase III trial, evaluating CALQUENCE compared with chlorambucil plus rituximab in first-line CLL in patients in China.4\nNew data show promise of next generation T-cell engagers and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapy\nTwo oral presentations will share results for the novel CD19xCD3 bispecific T-cell engager AZD0486, reinforcing the potential of this novel medicine as a new treatment option for B-cell malignancies.5-6 Phase I results demonstrate high response rates, with a 96% overall response rate, 85% complete response rate and high rates of undetectable MRD in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (R/R FL) at doses of 2.4 mg and above.5 Additionally, interim Phase I results will show the early potential of AZD0486 in patients with heavily pretreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).6 Data will also reinforce the safety profile of AZD0486, with cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) events effectively mitigated by the double step-up dosing schedule.7\nEarly data for AZD0120 (GC012F), a novel BCMAxCD19 dual-targeting autologous CAR T developed using the Gracell FasTCAR rapid manufacturing process, will show potential as a first-line therapy for elderly patients with newly diagnosed transplant ineligible MM.8 Preliminary results from the ongoing investigator-initiated trial of AZD0120 suggest deep responses and an acceptable safety profile, with no ICANS and no ≥Grade 2 CRS events observed in this patient population.8\nAn oral presentation will share preclinical data demonstrating the anti-tumor activity of AZD5492, a next-generation CD8 selective, CD20-targeting T-cell engager, designed using AstraZeneca’s innovative Target Induced T-cell Activating Nanobody (TITAN) platform. AZD5492 is currently being evaluated in Phase I clinical trials in R/R Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and CLL.9\nVOYDEYA (danicopan) as add-on to ULTOMIRIS (ravulizumab-cwvz) or SOLIRIS (eculizumab) demonstrates low rate of mild or moderate BTH events and improves quality-of-life measures in patients with PNH and clinically significant EVH\nData will be presented detailing events of breakthrough hemolysis (BTH), a key indicator of intravascular hemolysis and PNH disease control, reported in the ALPHA trial evaluating VOYDEYA as add-on to ULTOMIRIS or SOLIRIS in patients with PNH experiencing clinically significant extravascular hemolysis (EVH) and separately in the PEGASUS Phase III trial evaluating pegcetacoplan in patients with PNH previously treated with SOLIRIS. Data will show that 5/84 patients (6.0%) in the ALPHA trial and 19/80 patients (23.8%) in the PEGASUS trial experienced one or more BTH events. Moreover, most BTH events (6/7 or 85.7%) in the ALPHA trial were either mild or moderate, and all events were resolved without transfusion, dose modification or treatment withdrawal.10\nSeparately, final long-term patient-reported outcomes from the ALPHA trial will demonstrate VOYDEYA as add-on to ULTOMIRIS or SOLIRIS resulted in sustained improvements in fatigue, quality-of-life and physical function for up to 72 weeks in the subset of patients with PNH who experience clinically significant EVH.11\nAdvancing understanding of life-threatening rare diseases\nA US, retrospective chart review will provide real-world evidence showing hematologic and renal improvements in adults with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) who switched to ULTOMIRIS after short-term use of SOLIRIS, with early responses and continued improvements through one year of treatment with ULTOMIRIS.12\nAdditionally, two presentations on amyloid light chain (AL) amyloidosis will highlight unmet medical needs in this progressive, debilitating disease, reinforcing the importance of bringing forward novel therapies to improve cardiovascular outcomes and organ function.13-14\nKey presentations during the 66th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition\n\n\n\nLead Author\nAbstract Title\nPresentation details (PST)\n\n\nCALQUENCE® (acalabrutinib)\n\n\nBrown, JR et al.\nFixed-Duration Acalabrutinib plus Venetoclax with or without Obinutuzumab versus Chemoimmunotherapy for First-Line Treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Interim Analysis of the Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized, Phase 3 AMPLIFY Trial\nAbstract #1009Oral Session 642: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Clinical and Epidemiological:Frontline Targeted Therapy CombinationsDecember 9, 20244:30 PM\n\n\nQiu, L et al.\nAcalabrutinib Versus Chlorambucil Plus Rituximab in Patients with PreviouslyUntreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open Label, Phase 3 Study\nAbstract #3251Poster Session 642: Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Clinical and Epidemiological:Poster IIDecember 8, 20246:00 – 8:00 PM\n\n\nDreyling, M et al.\nHigh-risk Subgroups and MRD: An Updated Analysis of the Phase 3 ECHO Trial of Acalabrutinib with Bendamustine/Rituximab in Previously Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma\nAbstract #1626Poster Session 623.

Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.\nCALQUENCE is also indicated for the treatment of adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).\nIMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ABOUT CALQUENCE® (acalabrutinib) tablets\nSerious and Opportunistic Infections\nFatal and serious infections, including opportunistic infections, have occurred in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with CALQUENCE.\nSerious or Grade 3 or higher infections (bacterial, viral, or fungal) occurred in 19% of 1029 patients exposed to CALQUENCE in clinical trials, most often due to respiratory tract infections (11% of all patients, including pneumonia in 6%). These infections predominantly occurred in the absence of Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia, with neutropenic infection reported in 1.9% of all patients. Opportunistic infections in recipients of CALQUENCE have included, but are not limited to, hepatitis B virus reactivation, fungal pneumonia, Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia, Epstein-Barr virus reactivation, cytomegalovirus, and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Consider prophylaxis in patients who are at increased risk for opportunistic infections. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection and treat promptly.\nHemorrhage\nFatal and serious hemorrhagic events have occurred in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with CALQUENCE. Major hemorrhage (serious or Grade 3 or higher bleeding or any central nervous system bleeding) occurred in 3.0% of patients, with fatal hemorrhage occurring in 0.1% of 1029 patients exposed to CALQUENCE in clinical trials. Bleeding events of any grade, excluding bruising and petechiae, occurred in 22% of patients.\nUse of antithrombotic agents concomitantly with CALQUENCE may further increase the risk of hemorrhage. In clinical trials, major hemorrhage occurred in 2.7% of patients taking CALQUENCE without antithrombotic agents and 3.6% of patients taking CALQUENCE with antithrombotic agents. Consider the risks and benefits of antithrombotic agents when co-administered with CALQUENCE. Monitor patients for signs of bleeding.\nConsider the benefit-risk of withholding CALQUENCE for 3-7 days pre- and post-surgery depending upon the type of surgery and the risk of bleeding.\nCytopenias\nGrade 3 or 4 cytopenias, including neutropenia (23%), anemia (8%), thrombocytopenia (7%), and lymphopenia (7%), developed in patients with hematologic malignancies treated with CALQUENCE. Grade 4 neutropenia developed in 12% of patients. Monitor complete blood counts regularly during treatment. Interrupt treatment, reduce the dose, or discontinue treatment as warranted.\nSecond Primary Malignancies\nSecond primary malignancies, including skin cancers and other solid tumors, occurred in 12% of 1029 patients exposed to CALQUENCE in clinical trials. The most frequent second primary malignancy was skin cancer, reported in 6% of patients.
