TG Therapeutics Announces Completion of Full Enrollment in the UNITY-CLL Phase 3 Trial
Oct 16, 2017
Top-Line ORR data from the UNITY-CLL trial expected in 2Q18
Targeting an NDA/BLA filing for combination of TGR-1202 + TG-1101 in 2H18
Last month, the Company announced that target enrollment of 175 patients in each of the TG-1101 plus TGR-1202 and obinutuzumab plus chlorambucil arms was achieved, however, enrollment was extended to allow eligible patients who were already identified or in screening the ability to participate in the study. Completion of full enrollment has now been achieved with more than 200 patients in each of the two combination arms. Approximately 60% of patients enrolled in the combination arms were front-line and 40% were previously-treated. As per the SPA, the primary and secondary endpoint analyses will include all patients. Top-line Overall Response Rate (ORR) data from the UNITY-CLL trial is expected in the second quarter of 2018 and the company is targeting a New Drug Application (NDA)/ Biologics License Application (BLA) filing for the combination of TGR-1202 and TG-1101 in the second half of 2018.
ABOUT UNITY-CLL PHASE 3 TRIAL
UNITY-CLL is a global Phase 3 randomized controlled clinical trial in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) that includes two key objectives: first, was to demonstrate contribution of each agent in the TG-1101 (ublituximab) + TGR-1202 (umbralisib) or U2 regimen, and second, to demonstrate superiority in Progression Free Survival (PFS) over the standard of care to support the submission for full approval of the combination. In addition, upon completion of enrollment, this trial will evaluate Overall Response Rate (ORR) for accelerated approval. The study initially randomized patients into four treatment arms: TG-1101 plus TGR-1202, TG-1101 single agent, TGR-1202 agent, and an active control arm of obinutuzumab plus chlorambucil. Pursuant to the Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an early interim analysis was conducted to assess contribution of each single agent which allowed for early termination of both single agent arms.
