NCCN® Duvelisib (COPIKTRA®) Update to Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for CTCL
“We are very pleased to see COPIKTRA (duvelisib) added as a treatment option in the NCCN Guidelines for patients with CTCL (MFSS). We appreciate NCCN’s recognition of evidence showing COPIKTRA, as an oral dual PI3K inhibitor, to be a clinically important option in the treatment of T cell lymphomas,” said Dr. Christiane Langer, Senior Vice President, Head of Clinical & Medical Affairs at Secura Bio. “COPIKTRA is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (r/r CLL/SLL). The NCCN Guidelines also recommend COPIKTRA for relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Currently we are advancing a Phase 3 trial (TERZO) evaluating COPIKTRA in patients with relapsed/refractory nodal T-cell lymphoma with a T follicular helper (TFH) phenotype. We look forward to building the clinical evidence that further defines COPIKTRA’s role across T-cell lymphomas where successful treatment options have proven challenging.”
