These documents also provide capital-structure and governance information relevant to AstraZeneca’s UK issuer framework and SEC foreign-issuer reporting obligations.
AstraZeneca PLC officer Sharma Mani reported routine share awards under the company’s Share Incentive Plan. On April 7, 2026, Mani acquired 1 Ordinary Share at $196.03, and on May 6, 2026, acquired 1 Ordinary Share at $186.28, both as grants rather than open-market purchases.

A further 14,807 ordinary shares were issued between 1 April 2026 and 30 April 2026 under AstraZeneca’s employee share schemes and admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market under an existing block admission dated 29 January 2021.

AstraZeneca reported that the US FDA’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee voted 3–6 against the benefit‑risk profile of camizestrant plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor as 1st‑line treatment for HR‑positive, HER2‑negative advanced breast cancer with emergent ESR1 mutations, based on the Phase III SERENA‑6 trial. The FDA had previously granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation and accepted the New Drug Application, and it is not bound by the committee’s advice. Despite the mixed vote, AstraZeneca highlighted SERENA‑6 data showing a 56% reduction in risk of progression or death versus aromatase inhibitor plus CDK4/6 inhibitor (hazard ratio 0.44), with median progression‑free survival of 16.0 months versus 9.2 months and additional benefits in second progression and patient‑reported quality‑of‑life measures. The company will continue working with the FDA as the review proceeds and is also pursuing regulatory reviews in the EU, Japan and other countries.
AstraZeneca reported that the FDA’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee recommended its AKT inhibitor Truqap (capivasertib) plus abiraterone and androgen deprivation therapy for adults with PTEN-deficient metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, based on Phase III CAPItello-281 data. The Committee voted 7 in favour, 1 against and 1 abstention, citing a favourable benefit‑risk profile.
CAPItello‑281 showed a statistically significant 19% reduction in the risk of radiographic disease progression or death, with median radiographic progression‑free survival of 33.2 months for the Truqap combination versus 25.7 months for abiraterone and androgen deprivation therapy with placebo. Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in 67% of patients on the Truqap regimen versus 40.4% in the control arm, with rash, hyperglycaemia and hypokalaemia among the most common severe events.
The filing notes that Truqap would be the first targeted treatment option for this aggressive PTEN‑deficient subtype if approved. The FDA is not bound by the advisory vote and will continue reviewing the supplemental New Drug Application.
AstraZeneca PLC reported strong Q1 2026 results with broad-based growth and reaffirmed guidance. Total Revenue rose to $15,288m, up 13% at actual rates and 8% at constant exchange rates, driven by Oncology and Rare Disease medicines. Product Revenue reached $15,211m, with Oncology contributing $6,798m and Rare Disease $2,420m.
Reported EPS increased to $1.99 (up 6% actual, 8% CER) and Core EPS to $2.58 (up 4% actual, 5% CER), while Core Operating profit grew 12%. The Core Tax rate was 21%, and full-year Core Tax guidance remains 18–22%. AstraZeneca reconfirmed 2026 guidance for mid-to-high single-digit Total Revenue growth and low double-digit Core EPS growth at CER.
The company continued heavy R&D and business development investment, including a $100m upfront payment to Jacobio Pharma, a $25m option payment to Pinetree Therapeutics, and closing a strategic obesity and diabetes collaboration with CSPC Pharmaceuticals with a $1.2bn upfront payment and up to $3.5bn in potential milestones.
AstraZeneca PLC reports that Vanguard Capital Management beneficially owned 77,965,099 shares of Common Stock, representing 5.02% of the class as of 03/31/2026. The filing states Vanguard exercises sole voting power over 32,924,957 shares and sole dispositive power over 77,965,099 shares, and notes these holdings reflect positions held on behalf of Vanguard funds and managed accounts.
AstraZeneca reports that the US FDA has approved Breztri Aerosphere as the first and only fixed‑dose triple maintenance therapy for asthma in patients aged 12 and older. Breztri, already used in COPD, combines an inhaled corticosteroid, a long‑acting beta2‑agonist and a long‑acting muscarinic antagonist in a single inhaler.
The approval is based on the Phase III KALOS and LOGOS trials, which showed statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in lung function versus dual ICS/LABA therapy, with rapid improvement within five minutes after the first dose. Breztri is a maintenance treatment and does not replace a rescue inhaler.
Asthma affects about 27 million people in the US, and many remain uncontrolled on dual therapies. Breztri is already approved for COPD in 90 countries and was prescribed to more than 6.8 million patients globally in 2025. Regulatory filings for asthma are under review in other major regions including the EU, Japan and China.
AstraZeneca reports that the US Food and Drug Administration has approved Saphnelo (anifrolumab) for subcutaneous self-administration via the once-weekly 120mg Saphnelo Pen autoinjector for adult patients with systemic lupus erythematosus on standard therapy.
The decision is based on the Phase III TULIP-SC trial, where subcutaneous Saphnelo produced a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in disease activity versus placebo, with a safety profile consistent with the existing intravenous formulation. In secondary and exploratory endpoints, 29.0% of patients achieved DORIS remission and 40.1% reached low-level disease activity (LLDAS).
Saphnelo subcutaneous dosing is already approved in the EU and Japan, and more than 40,000 patients worldwide have been treated with Saphnelo. Under an updated agreement, AstraZeneca will pay Bristol-Myers Squibb a mid-teens royalty on US Saphnelo sales.
AstraZeneca PLC announced a change to its Board of Directors. Rene Haas will step down as a Non-Executive Director on 30 April 2026 as he assumes an additional role as Chief Executive Officer of SoftBank Group International alongside his position as CEO of Arm Holdings plc.
The company stated that, under section 430(2B) of the Companies Act 2006, Haas will receive only his non-executive director fees for his time on the Board and no payment for loss of office.
AstraZeneca reported positive interim Phase III results from the global I CAN trial of Ultomiris (ravulizumab) in adults with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) at risk of disease progression. Ultomiris met the primary interim endpoint, showing a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in proteinuria at week 34, with rapid effects seen as early as week 10.
The trial will continue to week 106 to assess change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and longer-term kidney outcomes. The safety profile was consistent with the known profile of Ultomiris, and AstraZeneca plans to seek accelerated approval in key markets and present full data at a medical meeting.
