AbbVie received a positive opinion from the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) for risankizumab (SKYRIZI®) to treat adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. This recommendation is based on two Phase 3 trials, INSPIRE and COMMAND, which showed that the treatment met the primary endpoint of clinical remission and key secondary endpoints. The induction dose is 1200 mg IV, followed by maintenance doses of 180 mg or 360 mg SC. The final decision from the European Commission is expected in Q3 2024.
The trials demonstrated that risankizumab provides long-term management beyond symptom control, including histologic-endoscopic mucosal healing. The safety profile was consistent with previous studies, with no new safety risks observed. AbbVie collaborates with Boehringer Ingelheim on risankizumab, and AbbVie leads its development and commercialization globally.
AbbVie has announced new data from its innovative antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) platform, which will be showcased across three oral presentations at the ASCO 2024 Annual Meeting. Key highlights include:

2. First-in-human study of ABBV-706 in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and high-grade neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), demonstrating an ORR of 43.8% overall and 60.9% in the SCLC group.
3. Phase 2 LUMINOSITY trial data for Telisotuzumab vedotin (Teliso-V) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), previously treated and c-Met-overexpressing.
The ADCs target unique protein biomarkers like c-Met and SEZ6, delivering potent cancer cell death-inducing agents to tumors. Additional data will be presented on the safety and efficacy of these treatments.
