LYNPARZA® (olaparib) Reduced the Risk of Death by 31% in BRCA1/2 or ATM-mutated Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer in Phase III Profound Trial

AstraZeneca and Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today announced final results from the Phase III PROfound trial that showed LYNPARZA (olaparib) demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival (OS) versus enzalutamide or abiraterone in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with BRCA1/2 or ATM gene mutations, a subpopulation of homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations. Patients had progressed on prior treatment with new hormonal agent (NHA) treatments (i.e., enzalutamide and abiraterone).

Prostate cancer is the second-most common type of cancer in men. An estimated 191,930 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2020. Approximately 20-30% of men with mCRPC have an HRR gene mutation.

In the key secondary endpoint of OS, LYNPARZA reduced the risk of death in patients with BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM mutations by 31% versus enzalutamide or abiraterone (based on a hazard ratio [HR] of 0.69; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.50-0.97; p=0.0175). Median OS was 19.1 months for LYNPARZA versus 14.7 months for enzalutamide or abiraterone, despite 66% of men on NHA treatments had crossed over to receive treatment with LYNPARZA following disease progression.

An exploratory analysis also showed a non-statistically significant improvement in OS in the overall trial population of men with HRR gene mutations (BRCA1/2, ATM, CDK12 and 11 other HRRm genes), reducing the risk of death by 21% with LYNPARZA versus enzalutamide or abiraterone (based on a HR of 0.79; 95% CI 0.61-1.03). Median OS was 17.3 months versus 14.0 months for enzalutamide or abiraterone.

Johann de Bono, one of the principal investigators of the PROfound trial, Head of Drug Development at The Institute of Cancer Research, London, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, said: “LYNPARZA has demonstrated significant clinical benefit across key endpoints in PROfound and the final overall survival results reinforce its potential to change the treatment standard for certain men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The PROfound trial shows that LYNPARZA can play an important role in this new era of precision medicine in prostate cancer, bringing a targeted therapy at a molecular level to patients with a historically poor prognosis and few treatment options.”

José Baselga, Executive Vice President, Oncology R&D, said: “These results help to transform the treatment landscape for certain men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, where overall survival has been very difficult to achieve. LYNPARZA is the only PARP inhibitor to demonstrate overall survival versus enzalutamide or abiraterone for men with BRCA or ATM mutations. We look forward to continuing to bring LYNPARZA to these patients around the world.”

Roy Baynes, Senior Vice President and Head of Global Clinical Development, Chief Medical Officer, Merck, said: “The PROfound trial is the first positive Phase III trial using molecular biomarker testing to help identify treatment options for certain men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. These results further underpin the importance of genomic testing for HRR gene mutations to identify this at-risk patient population and help physicians make treatment decisions. These results demonstrate the potential of LYNPARZA for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients with certain HRR mutations.”

Final OS results from the PROfound trial were presented on Sunday, September 20 during the Presidential Symposium at the 2020 European Society of Medical Oncology virtual congress, and published simultaneously in The New England Journal of Medicine.

The most common adverse events (AEs) ≥20% were anemia (50%), nausea (43%), fatigue/asthenia (42%), decreased appetite (31%), diarrhea (21%) and vomiting (20%). The most common ≥ grade 3 AEs were anemia (23%), nausea (2%), fatigue/asthenia (3%), decreased appetite (2%) and diarrhea (1%). Twenty percent of patients on LYNPARZA discontinued treatment due to AEs.

The Phase III PROfound trial had met its primary endpoint in August 2019, showing LYNPARZA significantly improved radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in men with BRCA1/2 or ATM genes, and had met a key secondary endpoint of rPFS in the overall HRRm population, which formed the basis of the US approval in May 2020. Regulatory reviews are ongoing in the EU and other countries.

AstraZeneca and Merck are exploring additional trials in metastatic prostate cancer including the ongoing Phase III PROpel trial testing LYNPARZA as a 1st-line medicine for patients with mCRPC in combination with abiraterone versus abiraterone alone. Data is anticipated in the second half of 2021.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

There are no contraindications for LYNPARZA.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML): Occurred in <1.5% of patients exposed to LYNPARZA monotherapy, and the majority of events had a fatal outcome. The duration of therapy in patients who developed secondary MDS/AML varied from <6 months to >2 years. All of these patients had previous chemotherapy with platinum agents and/or other DNA-damaging agents, including radiotherapy, and some also had a history of more than one primary malignancy or of bone marrow dysplasia.

Do not start LYNPARZA until patients have recovered from hematological toxicity caused by previous chemotherapy (≤Grade 1). Monitor complete blood count for cytopenia at baseline and monthly thereafter for clinically significant changes during treatment. For prolonged hematological toxicities, interrupt LYNPARZA and monitor blood count weekly until recovery.

If the levels have not recovered to Grade 1 or less after 4 weeks, refer the patient to a hematologist for further investigations, including bone marrow analysis and blood sample for cytogenetics. Discontinue LYNPARZA if MDS/AML is confirmed.

Pneumonitis: Occurred in <1% of patients exposed to LYNPARZA, and some cases were fatal. If patients present with new or worsening respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea, cough, and fever, or a radiological abnormality occurs, interrupt LYNPARZA treatment and initiate prompt investigation. Discontinue LYNPARZA if pneumonitis is confirmed and treat patient appropriately.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Based on its mechanism of action and findings in animals, LYNPARZA can cause fetal harm. A pregnancy test is recommended for females of reproductive potential prior to initiating treatment.

Females

Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception during treatment and for 6 months following the last dose.

Males

Advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential or who are pregnant to use effective contraception during treatment and for 3 months following the last dose of LYNPARZA and to not donate sperm during this time.

Venous Thromboembolic Events: Including pulmonary embolism, occurred in 7% of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who received LYNPARZA plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) compared to 3.1% of patients receiving enzalutamide or abiraterone plus ADT in the PROfound study. Patients receiving LYNPARZA and ADT had a 6% incidence of pulmonary embolism compared to 0.8% of patients treated with ADT plus either enzalutamide or abiraterone. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and treat as medically appropriate, which may include long-term anticoagulation as clinically indicated.

DRUG INTERACTIONS

Anticancer Agents: Clinical studies of LYNPARZA in combination with other myelosuppressive anticancer agents, including DNA-damaging agents, indicate a potentiation and prolongation of myelosuppressive toxicity.

CYP3A Inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors. If a strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitor must be co-administered, reduce the dose of LYNPARZA. Advise patients to avoid grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, and Seville orange juice during LYNPARZA treatment.

CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inducers when using LYNPARZA. If a moderate inducer cannot be avoided, there is a potential for decreased efficacy of LYNPARZA.

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

Lactation: No data are available regarding the presence of olaparib in human milk, its effects on the breastfed infant or on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed infant, advise a lactating woman not to breastfeed during treatment with LYNPARZA and for 1 month after receiving the final dose.

Pediatric Use: The safety and efficacy of LYNPARZA have not been established in pediatric patients.

Hepatic Impairment: No adjustment to the starting dose is required in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification A and B). There are no data in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification C).

Renal Impairment: No dosage modification is recommended in patients with mild renal impairment (CLcr 51-80 mL/min estimated by Cockcroft-Gault). In patients with moderate renal impairment (CLcr 31-50 mL/min), reduce the dose of LYNPARZA to 200 mg twice daily. There are no data in patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease (CLcr ≤30 mL/min).

About Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC)

Prostate cancer is the second-most common cancer in men. An estimated 191,930 men in the United States will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2020. Development of prostate cancer is often driven by male sex hormones called androgens, including testosterone. In patients with mCRPC, their prostate cancer grows and spreads to other parts of the body despite the use of androgen-deprivation therapy to block the action of male sex hormones. Approximately 10-20% of men with advanced prostate cancer will develop CRPC within five years, and at least 84% of these men will have metastases at the time of CRPC diagnosis. Of men with no metastases at CRPC diagnosis, 33% are likely to develop metastases within two years. Despite advances in treatment for men with mCRPC, five-year survival is low and extending survival remains a key goal.

About Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) Gene Mutations

HRR genes allow for accurate repair of damaged DNA in normal cells. HRR deficiency (HRD) means the DNA damage cannot be repaired, and can result in normal cell death. This is different in cancer cells, where a mutation in HRR pathways leads to abnormal cell growth and therefore cancer. HRD is a well-documented target for PARP inhibitors, such as LYNPARZA. PARP inhibitors block a rescue DNA damage repair mechanism by trapping PARP bound to DNA single-strand breaks which leads to replication fork stalling causing their collapse and the generation of DNA double-strand breaks, which in turn lead to cancer cell death.

About PROfound

PROfound is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, open-label, Phase III trial testing the efficacy and safety of LYNPARZA versus enzalutamide or abiraterone in patients with mCRPC who have progressed on prior treatment with NHA treatments (abiraterone or enzalutamide) and have a qualifying tumor mutation in BRCA1/2, ATM or one of 12 other genes involved in the HRR pathway.

The trial was designed to analyze patients with HRRm genes in two cohorts: the primary endpoint was rPFS in those with mutations in BRCA1/2 or ATM genes and then, if LYNPARZA showed clinical benefit, a formal analysis was performed of the overall trial population of patients with HRRm genes (BRCA1/2, ATM, CDK12 and 11 other HRRm genes; a key secondary endpoint).

About LYNPARZA

LYNPARZA® (olaparib) is a first-in-class PARP inhibitor and the first targeted treatment to block DNA damage response (DDR) in cells/tumors harboring a deficiency in HRR, such as mutations in BRCA and/or BRCA2. Inhibition of PARP with LYNPARZA leads to the trapping of PARP bound to DNA single-strand breaks, stalling of replication forks, their collapse and the generation of DNA double-strand breaks and cancer cell death. LYNPARZA is being tested in a range of PARP-dependent tumor types with defects and dependencies in the DDR pathway.

LYNPARZA is currently approved in a number of countries, including in the US, for the maintenance treatment of platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer. It is approved in the US, the EU, Japan, China, and several other countries as 1st-line maintenance treatment of BRCA-mutated advanced ovarian cancer following response to platinum-based chemotherapy. It is also approved in the US as a 1st-line maintenance treatment with bevacizumab for patients with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)-positive advanced ovarian cancer. LYNPARZA is approved in the US, Japan, and a number of other countries for germline BRCA-mutated, HER2-negative, metastatic breast cancer, previously treated with chemotherapy; in the EU, this includes locally advanced breast cancer. It is also approved in the US and several other countries for the treatment of germline BRCA-mutated metastatic pancreatic cancer. LYNPARZA is approved in the US for HRR gene-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Regulatory reviews are underway in several countries for ovarian, breast, pancreatic and prostate cancers.

LYNPARZA, which is being jointly developed and commercialized by AstraZeneca and Merck, has been used to treat over 30,000 patients worldwide. LYNPARZA has the broadest and most advanced clinical trial development program of any PARP inhibitor, and AstraZeneca and Merck are working together to understand how it may affect multiple PARP-dependent tumors as a monotherapy and in combination across multiple cancer types. LYNPARZA is the foundation of AstraZeneca’s industry-leading portfolio of potential new medicines targeting DDR mechanisms in cancer cells.

About the AstraZeneca and Merck strategic oncology collaboration

In July 2017, AstraZeneca and Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, US, known as MSD outside the US and Canada, announced a global strategic oncology collaboration to co-develop and co-commercialize LYNPARZA, the world’s first PARP inhibitor, and selumetinib, a MEK inhibitor, for multiple cancer types. Working together, the companies will develop LYNPARZA and other compounds in combination with other potential new medicines and as monotherapies. Independently, the companies will develop LYNPARZA and other compounds in combination with their respective PD-L1 and PD-1 medicines.
