AbbVie presented data on investigational epcoritamab at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting on December 11, 2022. Epcoritamab is being evaluated for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma, previously untreated follicular lymphoma, relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and Richter's syndrome. In the EPCORE™ NHL-2 study, 95% of patients with R/R FL achieved an overall response rate, while 94% in the previously untreated FL arm also showed positive results. Epcoritamab's safety profile indicated manageable low-grade cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and common treatment-emergent adverse events.
AbbVie recently presented data from Cohort 3 of the Phase 2 REFINE study at the ASH Annual Meeting, focusing on its investigational drug navitoclax combined with ruxolitinib for JAK inhibitor-naïve myelofibrosis patients. This combination therapy showed promise in reducing bone marrow fibrosis and variant allele frequency associated with myelofibrosis. Notably, spleen volume reduction was observed in various high-risk patient subgroups, and BMF grade improvement was seen in 81% of participants. The study indicates potential disease-modifying effects, although safety assessments showed common adverse events.
AbbVie presented new data at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting on IMBRUVICA (ibrutinib) for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), focusing on the CAPTIVATE and GLOW studies.

Additionally, real-world studies indicated that IMBRUVICA treatment yielded longer time to next treatment compared to other therapies. The continued investigation of IMBRUVICA reinforces its position in CLL treatment.
