Summary of Discontinued Clinical Trials in Indolent Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma and First-Line CLL Zydelig is not indicated for patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma or previously untreated CLL either as monotherapy or in combination with rituximab or BR.
Safety data described below reflect exposure to Zydelig in three randomized, double-blind clinical trials (Studies 312-0123, 313-0124, and 313-0125) in patients with CLL and iNHL.
In Study 312-0123 (NCT01980888), 311 patients with previously untreated CLL received up to 6 cycles of BR with or without Zydelig 150 mg twice daily.
In Study 313-0124 (NCT01732913), 295 patients with previously treated iNHL [FL 66%, marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) 19%, SLL 9%, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL)/Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) 6%] received 8 doses of R with or without Zydelig 150 mg twice daily.
