Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) significantly extended PFS when added to a venetoclax time-limited regimen in patients with previously treated CLL/SLL

“BRUIN CLL-322 was an ambitious trial, building on an effective regimen, and these results outperformed our expectations,” said Jacob Van Naarden, executive vice president and president of Lilly Oncology. “Modern CLL treatment regimens provide such durable disease control that the vast majority of patients see their entire disease course managed by only one or two lines of therapy. For doctors and patients who prefer a time-limited approach, these BRUIN CLL-322 data demonstrate that the addition of Jaypirca could further extend the duration of benefit in second line CLL. Together with the other Phase 3 data recently published from the BRUIN clinical program, these data reinforce the potential role that pirtobrutinib may have, whether as a time-limited combination as a second line treatment or as a continuously dosed monotherapy in either line of therapy. We look forward to sharing the detailed data later this year and pursuing regulatory approvals to enable broad access.”
