Rilzabrutinib Does Not Impact Platelet Aggregation

Rilzabrutinib does not alter platelet aggregation in blood taken from healthy volunteers or ITP patients

Ibrutinib has significant effects on platelet aggregation in HV

Data cut-off 22Apr2020.*Primary endpoint was defined as 2 consecutive platelet counts ≥ 50,000/μL without requiring rescue medication.

Overall, 43% of patients met the primary endpoint*, which increased with ≥12 weeks of rilzabrutinib

Rilzabrutinib showed 15/38 (40%) heavily pretreated patients responding (≥ 4 prior therapies)

Similar responses were achieved in patients receiving rilzabrutinib monotherapy (n=7/16) and inadequate responders on concomitant therapy (n=13/31)

Rilzabrutinib Was Well-Tolerated in ITP Patients

Median treatment duration (range)

− All patients: 17.7 wk (0.6-41.9)

− 400 mg bid: 18.0 wk (1.4-24.6)

Related TEAEs were reported in 21 patients (45%); all were transient and grade 1 or 2

− No related SAEs

No treatment-related bleeding or thrombotic events

No significant changes in the ITP-BAT bleeding scale from baseline to last visit

Conclusions

50% of patients achieved the primary endpoint response when initiated on rilzabrutinib 400 mg bid and treated for 12 weeks or more

Rapid onset seen in 53% patients initiated at 400 mg bid (platelet counts ≥ 30 × 109/L by the first week of treatment) and in 79% of responders

Durable responses in the majority of responding patients

− 71% of weeks with ≥ 50 × 109/L platelets

− 88% of weeks with ≥ 20 × 109/L platelets above baseline

Oral rilzabrutinib was well-tolerated across all doses (all related TEAEs were mild to moderate) with no thrombotic events
