Global Registrational Phase III Study of Lisaftoclax in Treatment-Naïve Patients with CLL/SLL Approved by the China CDE
“In earlier studies, lisaftoclax combined with acalabrutinib has already demonstrated impressive efficacy and safety, validating the combination regimen’s therapeutic potential and its promise as a patient-centric treatment strategy,” said Dr. Yifan Zhai, Chief Medical Officer of Ascentage Pharma. “We are very encouraged by this approval for the global registrational Phase III study of lisaftoclax combined with acalabrutinib. In terms of the dose ramp-up schedule for the Bcl-2 inhibitor and no lead-in of the BTK inhibitor, this trial adopts an innovative and optimized dosing regimen that is more convenient and allows for a faster onset of actions compared to studies of similar combinations. Fulfilling our mission of addressing unmet clinical needs in China and around the world, we will vigorously advance those clinical programs of lisaftoclax to expedite the drug’s journey to market for the benefit of more patients.”
