Celgene and LYSARC Provide Update on Phase III ‘RELEVANCE' Study of REVLIMID® in Combination with Rituximab (R²) for the Treatment of Previously Untreated Patients with Follicular Lymphoma
Celgene Corporation (NASDAQ:CELG) and the Lymphoma Study Association(LYSA) today announced that the Lymphoma Academic Research Organisation (LYSARC) reported results from a phase III, randomized, open-label, international clinical study (RELEVANCE).
This investigational study evaluated REVLIMID plus rituximab (R2) followed by R2 maintenance compared to the standard of care with rituximab plus chemotherapy (R-CHOP, R-bendamustine or R-CVP) followed by rituximab maintenance in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma.
The R2 treatment arm did not achieve superiority in the co-primary endpoints of complete response or unconfirmed complete response (CR/CRu) at 120 weeks and progression-free survival (PFS) during the pre-planned analysis (final analysis of CR/CRu and interim analysis of PFS). Neither arm was superior for either of the co-primary endpoints. The safety findings were consistent with the known profiles of the regimens investigated. Additional analyses are ongoing and planned.
"This is the first Phase III trial to evaluate a chemotherapy-free regimen to the established standard of care in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma and represents a landmark study in this disease setting," said Prof. Gilles Salles, President of the Lymphoma Study Association (LYSA). "We look forward to further analyzing and presenting these important data at a future medical congress.""We thank the patients, their families, the Co-Primary Investigators, Franck Morchhauser MD1, PhD, and Nathan Fowler, MD2 and the investigators for participating in the RELEVANCE trial," said Jay Backstrom, M.D., Chief Medical Officer and Head of Global Regulatory Affairs for Celgene. "We remain committed to advancing our broad pipeline of novel therapies to establish new standards of care for patients with lymphoma."
