Takeda to Highlight Broad Oncology Portfolio and Pipeline Data at the ASCO and the Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Meetings

Takeda and the New York Academy of Sciences Announce Innovators in Science Award Honorees

Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited announced that the company will feature a total of 14 Takeda Oncology-sponsored presentations at two upcoming medical meetings: the 54th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), June 1-5 in Chicago and the 23rd Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA), June 14-17 in Stockholm.

This year’s presentations will underscore Takeda’s unwavering pursuit to advance hematologic cancer therapy and continue building upon research in difficult-to-treat solid tumors.

“At ASCO and EHA we will present data, real-world findings and trial updates on our pipeline assets as well as our marketed therapies,” said Christophe Bianchi, M.D., President, Takeda Oncology. “At ASCO, we will present updated Phase 2 ALTA trial results examining long-term efficacy and safety of ALUNBRIG in patients with ALK+ non-small cell lung cancer who are refractory to crizotinib. Notably, at EHA we will present data on pre-specified subgroups from the ECHELON-1 Phase 3 trial evaluating a combination with ADCETRIS as a frontline treatment for patients with Hodgkin lymphoma. Takeda’s research continues to push innovation in oncology to advance needed treatments and illustrates the company’s vision to improve the lives of cancer patients.”

At this year’s ASCO meeting, updated Phase 2 ALTA (ALK in Lung Cancer Trial of AP26113) trial results examining long-term efficacy and safety of ALUNBRIG® (brigatinib) in a crizotinib refractory anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) population will be presented. During the poster discussion presentations, TAK-788, a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mutations, including exon 20 insertions, will report on the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary antitumor activity of this molecule in NSCLC patients. In addition, results from a first-in-human Phase 1 study of TAK-931, a small molecule inhibitor of the CDC7 kinase activity, in patients with advanced solid tumors will be shared during the oral presentations. The trial, which investigates the effect of TAK-931 in up to 100 participants with solid tumors, examines the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the oral medication to determine the maximum tolerated dose.

The company also continues to deepen its scientific body of knowledge in hematologic cancers. At ASCO, the company will present a “Trials in Progress” poster on the ongoing randomized global Phase 3 trial, PANTHER (investigational intravenous Pevonedistat plus Azacitidine versus single-agent azacitidine as first-line Treatment for patients with Higher-Risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia or low-blast acute myelogenous leukemia (AML)).

Furthermore, at this year’s EHA meeting, data on the efficacy and safety of a combination with ADCETRIS® (brentuximab vedotin) in pre-specified subgroups with more advanced disease from the ECHELON-1 trial will be presented. Data demonstrate greater benefit across these subgroups compared to the intent to treat population regardless of PET2 status based on the primary endpoint of modified progression-free survival. In addition, encore data from the Phase 3 ECHELON-1 clinical trial evaluating ADCETRIS as part of a frontline combination chemotherapy regimen in previously untreated advanced stage Hodgkin lymphoma will be featured. The data was previously presented in the Plenary Session at the 59th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting in December 2017. Finally, a study of TAK-659, a reversible dual inhibitor of spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) and FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3), in combination with standard of care treatments will present preliminary safety and efficacy data in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma models.

Safety, efficacy and real-world use findings from Takeda Oncology-sponsored trials examining a variety of blood cancers, including lymphoma, multiple myeloma and MDS, will be featured at ASCO and / or EHA.

The six Takeda Oncology-sponsored abstracts accepted for presentation during ASCO 2018 and eight abstracts at EHA 2018 include:

About ADCETRIS
ADCETRIS is an ADC comprising an anti-CD30 monoclonal antibody attached by a protease-cleavable linker to a microtubule disrupting agent, monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), utilizing Seattle Genetics’ proprietary technology. The ADC employs a linker system that is designed to be stable in the bloodstream but to release MMAE upon internalization into CD30-positive tumor cells.

ADCETRIS injection for intravenous infusion has received FDA regular approval for five indications in adult patients with: (1) previously untreated Stage III or IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), in combination with chemotherapy, (2) cHL at high risk of relapse or progression as post-autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) consolidation, (3) cHL after failure of auto-HSCT or failure of at least two prior multi-agent chemotherapy regimens in patients who are not auto-HSCT candidates, (4) sALCL after failure of at least one prior multi-agent chemotherapy regimen, and (5) primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (pcALCL) or CD30-expressing mycosis fungoides (MF) who have received prior systemic therapy.

Health Canada granted ADCETRIS approval with conditions for relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and sALCL in 2013, and non-conditional approval for post-autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) consolidation treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma patients at increased risk of relapse or progression.

ADCETRIS received conditional marketing authorization from the European Commission in October 2012. The approved indications in Europe are: (1) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma following ASCT, or following at least two prior therapies when ASCT or multi-agent chemotherapy is not a treatment option, (2) the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory sALCL, (3) for the treatment of adult patients with CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma at increased risk of relapse or progression following ASCT, and (4) for the treatment of adult patients with CD30-positive cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) after at least one prior systemic therapy.

ADCETRIS has received marketing authorization by regulatory authorities in more than 70 countries for relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and sALCL. See important safety information below.

ADCETRIS is being evaluated broadly in more than 70 clinical trials, including a Phase 3 study in frontline Hodgkin lymphoma (ECHELON-1) and another Phase 3 study in frontline CD30-positive peripheral T-cell lymphomas (ECHELON-2), as well as trials in many additional types of CD30-positive malignancies.

Seattle Genetics and Takeda are jointly developing ADCETRIS. Under the terms of the collaboration agreement, Seattle Genetics has U.S. and Canadian commercialization rights and Takeda has rights to commercialize ADCETRIS in the rest of the world. Seattle Genetics and Takeda are funding joint development costs for ADCETRIS on a 50:50 basis, except in Japan where Takeda is solely responsible for development costs.
