  • 3 DOSAGE FORMS AND STRENGTHS

    Capsules: Each 80 mg capsule is a size 0, white to off-white opaque capsule marked with "ZANU 80" in black ink.

  • 4 CONTRAINDICATIONS

    None.

  • 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

    5.1 Hemorrhage

    Fatal and serious hemorrhage has occurred in patients with hematological malignancies treated with BRUKINSA. Grade 3 or higher hemorrhage including intracranial and gastrointestinal hemorrhage, hematuria, and hemothorax was reported in 3.8% of patients treated with BRUKINSA in clinical trials, with fatalities occurring in 0.2% of patients. Bleeding of any grade, excluding purpura and petechiae, occurred in 32% of patients.

    Bleeding has occurred in patients with and without concomitant antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy. Coadministration of BRUKINSA with antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications may further increase the risk of hemorrhage.

    Monitor for signs and symptoms of bleeding. Discontinue BRUKINSA if intracranial hemorrhage of any grade occurs. Consider the benefit-risk of withholding BRUKINSA for 3-7 days before and after surgery depending upon the type of surgery and the risk of bleeding.

    5.2 Infections

    Fatal and serious infections (including bacterial, viral, or fungal infections) and opportunistic infections have occurred in patients with hematological malignancies treated with BRUKINSA. Grade 3 or higher infections occurred in 26% of patients, most commonly pneumonia (7.9%), with fatal infections occurring in 3.2% of patients. Infections due to hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation have occurred.

    Consider prophylaxis for herpes simplex virus, pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia, and other infections according to standard of care in patients who are at increased risk for infections. Monitor and evaluate patients for fever or other signs and symptoms of infection and treat appropriately.

    5.3 Cytopenias

    Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias, including neutropenia (21%), thrombocytopenia (8%), and anemia (8%) based on laboratory measurements, developed in patients treated with BRUKINSA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 10% of patients, and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia occurred in 2.5% of patients.

    Monitor complete blood counts regularly during treatment and interrupt treatment, reduce the dose, or discontinue treatment as warranted[see Dosage and Administration (2.4)]. Treat using growth factor or transfusions, as needed.

    5.4 Second Primary Malignancies

    Second primary malignancies, including non-skin carcinoma, have occurred in 14% of patients treated with BRUKINSA. The most frequent second primary malignancy was non-melanoma skin cancers (8%), followed by other solid tumors in 7% of the patients (including melanoma in 1% of patients) and hematologic malignancies (0.7%). Advise patients to use sun protection and monitor patients for the development of second primary malignancies.

    5.5 Cardiac Arrhythmias

    Serious cardiac arrhythmias have occurred in patients treated with BRUKINSA. Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter were reported in 4.4% of patients treated with BRUKINSA, including Grade 3 or higher cases in 1.9% of patients. Patients with cardiac risk factors, hypertension, and acute infections may be at increased risk. Grade 3 or higher ventricular arrhythmias were reported in 0.3% of patients.

    Monitor for signs and symptoms of cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., palpitations, dizziness, syncope, dyspnea, chest discomfort), manage appropriately [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)], and consider the risks and benefits of continued BRUKINSA treatment.

    5.6 Hepatotoxicity, Including Drug-Induced Liver Injury

    Hepatotoxicity, including severe, life-threatening, and potentially fatal cases of drug-induced liver injury (DILI), has occurred in patients treated with Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including BRUKINSA.

    Evaluate bilirubin and transaminases at baseline and throughout treatment with BRUKINSA. For patients who develop abnormal liver tests after BRUKINSA, monitor more frequently for liver test abnormalities and clinical signs and symptoms of hepatic toxicity. If DILI is suspected, withhold BRUKINSA. Upon confirmation of DILI, discontinue BRUKINSA.

    5.7 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

    Based on findings in animals, BRUKINSA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Administration of zanubrutinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused embryo-fetal toxicity, including malformations at exposures that were 5 times higher than those reported in patients at the recommended dose of 160 mg twice daily. Advise women to avoid becoming pregnant while taking BRUKINSA and for 1 week after the last dose. Advise men to avoid fathering a child during treatment and for 1 week after the last dose. If this drug is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

  • 6 ADVERSE REACTIONS

    The following clinically significant adverse reactions are discussed in more detail in other sections of the labeling:

    6.1 Clinical Trials Experience

    Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.

    The data in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to BRUKINSA in nine monotherapy and 2 combination clinical trials, administered at 160 mg twice daily in 1608 patients and at 320 mg once daily in 121 patients. Among these 1729 patients, the median duration of exposure was 27.6 months, 78% of patients were exposed for at least 12 months, and 60% of patients were exposed for at least 24 months.

    In this pooled safety population, the most common adverse reactions (≥30%), including laboratory abnormalities, were neutrophil count decreased (51%), platelet count decreased (41%), upper respiratory tract infection (38%), hemorrhage (32%), and musculoskeletal pain (31%).

    Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL)

    The safety of BRUKINSA was evaluated in 118 patients with MCL who received at least one prior therapy in two single-arm clinical trials, BGB-3111-206 [NCT03206970] and BGB-3111-AU-003 [NCT02343120] [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. The median age of patients who received BRUKINSA in studies BGB-3111-206 and BGB-3111-AU-003 was 62 years (range: 34 to 86), 75% were male, 75% were Asian, 21% were White, and 94% had an ECOG performance status of 0 to 1. Patients had a median of 2 prior lines of therapy (range: 1 to 4). The BGB-3111-206 trial required a platelet count ≥75 × 109/L and an absolute neutrophil count ≥1 × 109/L independent of growth factor support, hepatic enzymes ≤2.5 × upper limit of normal, total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN. The BGB-3111-AU-003 trial required a platelet count ≥50 × 109/L and an absolute neutrophil count ≥1 × 109/L independent of growth factor support, hepatic enzymes ≤3 × upper limit of normal, total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN. Both trials required a creatinine clearance (CLcr) ≥30 mL/min. Both trials excluded patients with prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant, exposure to a BTK inhibitor, known infection with HIV, and serologic evidence of active hepatitis B or hepatitis C infection, and patients requiring strong CYP3A inhibitors or strong CYP3A inducers. Patients received BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily or 320 mg once daily. Among patients receiving BRUKINSA, 79% were exposed for 6 months or longer, and 68% were exposed for greater than one year.

    Fatal adverse reactions within 30 days of the last dose of BRUKINSA occurred in 8 (7%) of 118 patients with MCL. Fatal cases included pneumonia in 2 patients and cerebral hemorrhage in one patient.

    Serious adverse reactions were reported in 36 patients (31%). The most frequent serious adverse reactions that occurred were pneumonia (11%) and hemorrhage (5%).

    Of the 118 patients with MCL treated with BRUKINSA, 8 (7%) patients discontinued treatment due to adverse reactions in the trials. The most frequent adverse reaction leading to treatment discontinuation was pneumonia (3.4%). One (0.8%) patient experienced an adverse reaction leading to dose reduction (hepatitis B).

    Table 3 summarizes the adverse reactions in BGB-3111-206 and BGB-3111-AU-003.

    Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM)

    The safety of BRUKINSA was investigated in two cohorts of Study BGB-3111-302 (ASPEN). Cohort 1 included 199 patients with MYD88 mutation (MYD88MUT) WM, randomized to and treated with either BRUKINSA (101 patients) or ibrutinib (98 patients). The trial also included a non-randomized arm, Cohort 2, with 26 wild type MYD88 (MYD88WT) WM patients and 2 patients with unknown MYD88 status [see Clinical Studies (14.2)].

    Among patients who received BRUKINSA, 93% were exposed for 6 months or longer, and 89% were exposed for greater than 1 year.

    In Cohort 1 of the ASPEN study safety population (N=101), the median age of patients who received BRUKINSA was 70 years (45-87 years old); 67% were male, 86% were White, 4% were Asian, and 10% were not reported (unknown race). In Cohort 2 of the ASPEN study safety population (N=28), the median age of patients who received BRUKINSA was 72 (39-87 years old); 50% were male, 96% were White, and 4% were not reported (unknown race).

    In Cohort 1, serious adverse reactions occurred in 44% of patients who received BRUKINSA. Serious adverse reactions in >2% of patients included influenza (3%), pneumonia (4%), neutropenia and neutrophil count decreased (3%), hemorrhage (4%), pyrexia (3%), and febrile neutropenia (3%). In Cohort 2, serious adverse reactions occurred in 39% of patients. Serious adverse reactions in >2 patients included pneumonia (14%).

    Permanent discontinuation of BRUKINSA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 2% of patients in Cohort 1 and included hemorrhage (1 patient), neutropenia and neutrophil count decreased (1 patient); in Cohort 2, permanent discontinuation of BRUKINSA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 7% of patients and included subdural hemorrhage (1 patient) and diarrhea (1 patient).

    Dosage interruptions of BRUKINSA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 32% of patients in Cohort 1 and in 29% in Cohort 2. Adverse reactions which required dosage interruption in >2% of patients included neutropenia, vomiting, hemorrhage, thrombocytopenia, and pneumonia in Cohort 1. Adverse reactions leading to dosage interruption in >2 patients in Cohort 2 included pneumonia and pyrexia.

    Dose reductions of BRUKINSA due to an adverse reaction occurred in 11% of patients in Cohort 1 and in 7% in Cohort 2. Adverse reactions which required dose reductions in >2% of patients included neutropenia in Cohort 1. Adverse reaction leading to dose reduction occurred in 2 patients in Cohort 2 (each with one event: diarrhea and pneumonia).

    Marginal Zone Lymphoma

    The safety of BRUKINSA was evaluated in 88 patients with previously treated MZL in two single-arm clinical studies, BGB-3111-214 and BGB-3111-AU-003 [see Clinical Studies (14.3)]. The trials required an absolute neutrophil count ≥1 × 109/L, platelet count ≥50 or ≥75 × 109/L and adequate hepatic function and excluded patients requiring a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer. Patients received BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily (97%) or 320 mg once daily (3%). The median age in both studies combined was 70 years (range: 37 to 95), 52% were male, 64% were White, and 19% were Asian. Most patients (92%) had an ECOG performance status of 0 to 1. Eighty percent received BRUKINSA for 6 months or longer, and 67% received treatment for more than one year.

    Two fatal adverse reactions (2.3%) occurred within 30 days of the last dose of BRUKINSA, including myocardial infarction and a Covid-19–related death.

    Serious adverse reactions occurred in 40% of patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions were pyrexia (8%) and pneumonia (7%).

    Adverse reactions lead to treatment discontinuation in 6% of patients, dose reduction in 2.3%, and dose interruption in 34%. The leading cause of dose modification was respiratory tract infections (13%).

    Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

    The safety data described below reflect exposure to BRUKINSA (160 mg twice daily) in 675 patients with CLL from two randomized controlled clinical trials [see Clinical Studies (14.4)]. The trials required patients to be unsuitable for fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR) therapy defined as age ≥65 years, or age 18 to <65 years with either a total Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS) >6, CLcr 30 to 69 mL/min, or history of serious or frequent infections. The trial excluded patients with AST or ALT ≥2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or bilirubin ≥3 times (ULN) and patients requiring a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer.

    SEQUOIA

    The safety of BRUKINSA monotherapy in patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL was evaluated in a randomized, multicenter, open-label, actively controlled trial [see Clinical Studies (14.4)]. Patients without deletion of chromosome 17p13.1 (17p deletion) (Cohort 1) received either BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (n=240) or bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) for 6 cycles (n=227). Bendamustine was dosed at 90 mg/m2/day intravenously on the first 2 days of each cycle, and rituximab was dosed at 375 mg/m2 on day 1 of Cycle 1 and 500 mg/m2 on day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6.

    Additionally, the same BRUKINSA regimen was evaluated in 111 patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL with 17p deletion in a non-randomized single arm (Cohort 2).

    Randomized Cohort: Previously Untreated CLL/SLL without 17p Deletion

    In patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL without 17p deletion, the median age was 70, 62% were male, 89% were White, 2% were Asian, and 2% were Black. Most patients (93%) had an ECOG performance status of 0 to 1.

    The median duration of exposure to BRUKINSA was 26 months, with 71% exposed for more than 2 years.

    Serious adverse reactions occurred in 36% of patients who received BRUKINSA. Serious adverse reactions that occurred in ≥5% of patients were COVID-19, pneumonia, and second primary malignancy (5% each). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 11 (4.6%) patients with the leading cause of death being COVID-19 (2.1%).

    Adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of BRUKINSA in 8% of patients, dose reduction in 8%, and dose interruption in 46%. The most common adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation were second primary malignancy and COVID-19. The leading causes of dose modification (≥5% of all patients) were respiratory infections (COVID-19, pneumonia) and hemorrhage.

    Follicular Lymphoma

    The safety of BRUKINSA in combination with obinutuzumab was evaluated in 143 adult patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) in study BGB-3111-212 (ROSEWOOD), a randomized, multicenter, open-label trial [see Clinical Studies (14.5)]. The trial required an absolute neutrophil count ≥1 × 109/L, platelet count ≥50 × 109/L, and CLcr ≥30 mL/min and excluded patients requiring a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer.

    Patients were randomized to receive either BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity plus obinutuzumab (n=143) or obinutuzumab monotherapy (n=71). Obinutuzumab was dosed at 1,000 mg intravenously on Days 1, 8, and 15 of Cycle 1; on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6; and then every 8 weeks for up to 20 doses. At the discretion of the investigator, obinutuzumab was administered intravenously on Day 1 (100 mg) and on Day 2 (900 mg) of Cycle 1 instead of 1,000 mg on Day 1 of Cycle 1.

    In patients who received BRUKINSA in combination with obinutuzumab, the median age was 63, 49% were female, 63% were White, and 21% were Asian. Most patients (97%) had an ECOG performance status of 0 to 1. The median duration of BRUKINSA treatment was 12 months, with 24% of patients treated for at least 2 years.

    Serious adverse reactions occurred in 35% of patients who received BRUKINSA in combination with obinutuzumab. Serious adverse reactions in ≥5% of patients included pneumonia (11%) and COVID-19 (10%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 4.2% of patients, with the leading cause of death being COVID-19 (2.1%).

    Adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of BRUKINSA in 17% of patients, dose reduction in 9%, and dose interruption in 40%. Adverse reactions leading to permanent discontinuation in ≥2% of patients were pneumonia, COVID-19, and second primary malignancy. The leading causes of BRUKINSA dosage modification (42% of all patients) were pneumonia, COVID-19, thrombocytopenia, and neutropenia.

  • 8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

    8.1 Pregnancy

    Risk Summary

    Based on findings in animals, BRUKINSA can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant women. There are no available data on BRUKINSA use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of zanubrutinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis was associated with fetal heart malformation at approximately 5-fold human exposures (see Data). Women should be advised to avoid pregnancy while taking BRUKINSA. If BRUKINSA is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking BRUKINSA, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.

    The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.

    Data

    Animal Data

    Embryo-fetal development toxicity studies were conducted in both rats and rabbits. Zanubrutinib was administered orally to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis at doses of 30, 75, and 150 mg/kg/day. Malformations in the heart (2 or 3-chambered hearts) were noted at all dose levels in the absence of maternal toxicity. The dose of 30 mg/kg/day is approximately 5 times the exposure (AUC) in patients receiving the recommended dose of 160 mg twice daily.

    Administration of zanubrutinib to pregnant rabbits during the period of organogenesis at 30, 70, and 150 mg/kg/day resulted in postimplantation loss at the highest dose. The dose of 150 mg/kg is approximately 32 times the exposure (AUC) in patients at the recommended dose and was associated with maternal toxicity.

    In a pre and postnatal developmental toxicity study, zanubrutinib was administered orally to rats at doses of 30, 75, and 150 mg/kg/day from implantation through weaning. The offspring from the middle and high dose groups had decreased body weights preweaning, and all dose groups had adverse ocular findings (e.g., cataract, protruding eye). The dose of 30 mg/kg/day is approximately 5 times the AUC in patients receiving the recommended dose.

    8.2 Lactation

    Risk Summary

    There are no data on the presence of zanubrutinib or its metabolites in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions from BRUKINSA in a breastfed child, advise lactating women not to breastfeed during treatment with BRUKINSA and for two weeks following the last dose.

    8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential

    BRUKINSA can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant women [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

    Pregnancy Testing

    Pregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential prior to initiating BRUKINSA therapy.

    Contraception

    Females

    Advise female patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with BRUKINSA and for 1 week following the last dose of BRUKINSA. If this drug is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be informed of the potential hazard to a fetus.

    Males

    Advise men to avoid fathering a child while receiving BRUKINSA and for 1 week following the last dose of BRUKINSA.

    8.4 Pediatric Use

    Safety and effectiveness of BRUKINSA in pediatric patients have not been established.

    8.5 Geriatric Use

    Of the 1729 patients with MCL, MZL, WM, CLL/SLL, and FL in clinical studies with BRUKINSA, 59% were ≥65 years of age, and 21% were ≥75 years of age. Patients ≥65 years of age had numerically higher rates of Grade 3 or higher adverse reactions and serious adverse reactions (57% and 38%, respectively) than patients <65 years of age (51% and 29%, respectively). No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between younger and older patients.

    8.6 Renal Impairment

    No dosage modification is recommended in patients with mild, moderate, or severe renal impairment (CLcr ≥15 mL/min, estimated by Cockcroft-Gault). Monitor for BRUKINSA adverse reactions in patients on dialysis [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

    8.7 Hepatic Impairment

    Dosage modification of BRUKINSA is recommended in patients with severe hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)]. The safety of BRUKINSA has not been evaluated in patients with severe hepatic impairment. No dosage modification is recommended in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment. Monitor for BRUKINSA adverse reactions in patients with hepatic impairment [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].

    Zanubrutinib has the following structure:

    Chemical Structure

    Each BRUKINSA capsule for oral administration contains 80 mg zanubrutinib and the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, and sodium lauryl sulfate. The capsule shell contains edible black ink, gelatin, and titanium dioxide.

  • 12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

    12.1 Mechanism of Action

    Zanubrutinib is a small-molecule inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK). Zanubrutinib forms a covalent bond with a cysteine residue in the BTK active site, leading to inhibition of BTK activity. BTK is a signaling molecule of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. In B-cells, BTK signaling results in activation of pathways necessary for B-cell proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion. In nonclinical studies, zanubrutinib inhibited malignant B-cell proliferation and reduced tumor growth.

    12.2 Pharmacodynamics

    BTK Occupancy in PBMCs and Lymph Nodes

    The median steady-state BTK occupancy in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was maintained at 100% over 24 hours at a total daily dose of 320 mg in patients with B-cell malignancies. The median steady-state BTK occupancy in lymph nodes was 94% to 100% following the approved recommended dosage.

    Cardiac Electrophysiology

    At the approved recommended doses (160 mg twice daily or 320 mg once daily), there were no clinically relevant effects on the QTc interval. The effect of BRUKINSA on the QTc interval above the therapeutic exposure has not been evaluated.

    12.3 Pharmacokinetics

    Zanubrutinib maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma drug concentration over time curve (AUC) increase proportionally over a dosage range from 40 mg to 320 mg (0.13 to 1 time the recommended total daily dose). Limited systemic accumulation of zanubrutinib was observed following repeated administration.

    The geometric mean (%CV) zanubrutinib steady-state daily AUC is 2,099 (42%) ng∙h/mL following 160 mg twice daily and 1,917 (59%) ng∙h/mL following 320 mg once daily. The geometric mean (%CV) zanubrutinib steady-state Cmax is 295 (55%) ng/mL following 160 mg twice daily and 537 (55%) ng/mL following 320 mg once daily.

    Absorption

    The median tmax of zanubrutinib is 2 hours.

    Effect of Food

    No clinically significant differences in zanubrutinib AUC or Cmax were observed following administration of a high-fat meal (approximately 1,000 calories with 50% of total caloric content from fat) in healthy subjects.

    Distribution

    The geometric mean (%CV) apparent volume of distribution (Vz/F) of zanubrutinib is 537 (73%) L. The plasma protein binding of zanubrutinib is approximately 94% and the blood-to-plasma ratio is 0.7 to 0.8.

    Elimination

    The mean half-life (t½) of zanubrutinib is approximately 2 to 4 hours following a single oral zanubrutinib dose of 160 mg or 320 mg. The geometric mean (%CV) apparent oral clearance (CL/F) of zanubrutinib is 128 (58%) L/h.

    Metabolism

    Zanubrutinib is primarily metabolized by cytochrome P450(CYP)3A.

    Excretion

    Following a single radiolabeled zanubrutinib dose of 320 mg to healthy subjects, approximately 87% of the dose was recovered in feces (38% unchanged) and 8% in urine (less than 1% unchanged).

    Specific Populations

    No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of zanubrutinib were observed based on age (19 to 90 years), sex, race (Asian, White, and Other), body weight (36 to 144 kg), or mild, moderate or severe renal impairment (CLcr ≥15 mL/min as estimated by Cockcroft-Gault). The effect of dialysis on zanubrutinib pharmacokinetics is unknown.

    Hepatic Impairment

    The total AUC of zanubrutinib increased by 11% in subjects with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class A), by 21% in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B), and by 60% in subjects with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C) relative to subjects with normal liver function. The unbound AUC of zanubrutinib increased by 23% in subjects with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class A), by 43% in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class B) and by 194% in subjects with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C) relative to subjects with normal liver function.

    Transporter Systems: Coadministration of multiple doses of zanubrutinib increased digoxin (P-gp substrate) Cmax by 34% and AUC by 11%. No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of rosuvastatin (BCRP substrate) were observed when coadministered with zanubrutinib.

    Gastric Acid Reducing Agents: No clinically significant differences in zanubrutinib pharmacokinetics were observed when coadministered with gastric acid reducing agents (proton pump inhibitors, H2-receptor antagonists).

    In Vitro Studies

    CYP Enzymes: Zanubrutinib is an inducer of CYP2B6 and CYP2C8.

    Transporter Systems: Zanubrutinib is likely to be a substrate of P-gp. Zanubrutinib is not a substrate or inhibitor of OAT1, OAT3, OCT2, OATP1B1, or OATP1B3.

  • 13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

    13.1 Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

    Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with zanubrutinib.

    Zanubrutinib was not mutagenic in a bacterial mutagenicity (Ames) assay, was not clastogenic in a chromosome aberration assay in mammalian (CHO) cells, nor was it clastogenic in an in vivo bone marrow micronucleus assay in rats.

    A combined male and female fertility and early embryonic development study was conducted in rats at oral zanubrutinib doses of 30 to 300 mg/kg/day. Male rats were dosed 4 weeks prior to mating and through mating and female rats were dosed 2 weeks prior to mating and to gestation day 7. No effect on male or female fertility was noted at lower doses, but at the highest dose tested, morphological abnormalities in sperm and increased postimplantation loss were noted. The high dose of 300 mg/kg/day is approximately 10 times the human recommended dose, based on body surface area.

  • 14 CLINICAL STUDIES

    14.1 Mantle Cell Lymphoma

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA was assessed in BGB-3111-206 [NCT03206970], a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter, single-arm trial of 86 previously treated patients with MCL who had received at least one prior therapy. BRUKINSA was given orally at a dose of 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

    The median age of patients was 60.5 years (range: 34 to 75) and the majority were male (78%). The median time since diagnosis to study entry was 30 months (range: 3 to 102) and the median number of prior therapies was 2 (range: 1 to 4). The most common prior regimens were CHOP-based (91%) followed by rituximab-based (74%). The majority of patients had extranodal involvement (71%) and refractory disease (52%). Blastoid variant of MCL was present in 14% of patients. The MIPI score was low in 58%, intermediate in 29%, and high risk in 13%.

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA was also assessed in BGB-3111-AU-003 [NCT02343120], a Phase 1/2, open-label, dose-escalation, global, multicenter, single-arm trial of B cell malignancies including 32 previously treated MCL patients treated with BRUKINSA. BRUKINSA was given orally at doses of 160 mg twice daily or 320 mg daily. The median age of patients with previously treated MCL was 70 years (range: 42 to 86) and 38% of patients were ≥75 years old. Most patients were male (69%) and White (78%). The MIPI score was low in 28%, intermediate in 41%, and high risk in 31%.

    Tumor response was according to the 2014 Lugano Classification for both studies, and the primary efficacy endpoint was overall response rate as assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC).

    14.2 Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA was evaluated in ASPEN [NCT03053440], a randomized, active control, open-label trial, comparing BRUKINSA and ibrutinib in patients with MYD88 L265P mutation (MYD88MUT) WM. Patients in Cohort 1 (n=201) were randomized 1:1 to receive BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily or ibrutinib 420 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Randomization was stratified by number of prior therapies (0 vs 1-3 vs >3) and CXCR4 status (presence or absence of a WHIM-like mutation as measured by Sanger assay).

    The major efficacy outcome was the response rate defined as PR or better as assessed by IRC based on standard consensus response criteria from the International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM)-6 criteria. An additional efficacy outcome measure was duration of response (DOR).

    The median age was 70 years (range: 38 to 90) and 68% were male. Of those enrolled, 2% were Asian, 91% were White, and 7% were of unknown race. ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 was present in 93% patients at baseline and 7% had a baseline ECOG performance status of 2. A total of 82% had relapsed/refractory disease with 85% having received prior alkylating agents and 91% prior anti-CD20 therapy. The median number of prior therapies in those with relapsed/refractory disease was 1 (range: 1 to 8). A total of 91 (45%) patients had International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) high WM.

    The study did not meet statistical significance for the prespecified efficacy outcome of superior CR+VGPR as assessed by IRC, tested first in patients with R/R disease in ASPEN.

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA was assessed in Study BGB-3111-214 [NCT03846427], an open-label, multicenter, single-arm trial that evaluated 66 patients with MZL who received at least one prior anti–CD20-based therapy. BRUKINSA was given orally at a dosage of 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median age was 70 years (range: 37 to 85); 55% were male; 38% had extranodal MZL, 38% nodal, 18% splenic, and 6% had unknown subtype. The median number of prior systemic therapies was 2 (range: 1 to 6), with 27% having 3 or more lines of systemic therapy; 88% had prior rituximab-based chemotherapy; 32% had refractory disease at study entry.

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA was also assessed in BGB-3111-AU-003 [NCT02343120], an open-label, multicenter, single-arm trial that included 20 patients with previously treated MZL (45% having extranodal MZL, 25% nodal, 30% splenic). BRUKINSA was given orally at dosages of 160 mg twice daily or 320 mg once daily. The median age was 70 years (range: 52 to 85); 50% were male. The median number of prior systemic therapies was 2 (range: 1 to 5), with 20% having 3 or more lines of systemic therapy; 95% had prior rituximab-based chemotherapy.

    14.4 Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA in patients with CLL/SLL was evaluated in two randomized controlled trials.

    SEQUOIA

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA in patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL was evaluated in a multicenter, open-label trial (SEQUOIA; NCT03336333). The trial required patients to be unsuitable for FCR therapy defined as either age ≥65 years or age 18 to <65 with a total Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS) >6, creatinine clearance 30 to 69 mL/min, or history of serious or recurrent infection. Patients without 17p deletion (17p del) were randomized to receive either BRUKINSA 160 mg twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (n=241) or bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) for 6 cycles (n=238). Bendamustine was dosed at 90 mg/m2/day intravenously on the first 2 days of each cycle, and rituximab was dosed at 375 mg/m2 on day 1 of Cycle 1 and 500 mg/m2 on day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6 with a 28-day cycle length. Randomization was stratified by age, Binet stage, immunoglobulin variable region heavy chain (IGHV) mutational status, and geographic region.

    Additionally, the same BRUKINSA regimen was evaluated in 110 patients with previously untreated 17p del CLL/SLL in a non-randomized cohort.

    Efficacy is summarized according to cohort.

    Randomized Cohort: Previously Untreated CLL/SLL without 17p Deletion

    In the randomized cohort of patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL without 17p deletion, the median age was 70 years; 62% were male, 89% were White, 3% were Asian, and 1% were Black. Fifty-three percent of patients had an unmutated IGHV gene and 29% had Binet Stage C disease. Baseline characteristics were generally similar between treatment arms.

    Efficacy in this cohort was based on progression-free survival as assessed by an IRC. Efficacy results are presented in Table 22 and Figure 1.

    ALPINE

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL was evaluated in ALPINE, a randomized, multicenter, open-label, actively controlled trial (NCT03734016). The trial enrolled 652 patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL after at least 1 systemic therapy. The patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either BRUKINSA 160 mg orally twice daily (n=327) or ibrutinib 420 mg orally once daily (n=325), each administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

    Randomization was stratified by age, geographic region, refractoriness to last therapy, and 17p deletion/TP53mutation status.

    Baseline characteristics were similar between treatment arms. Overall, the median age was 67 years, 68% were male, 81% were White, 14% were Asian, and 1% were Black. Forty-three percent had advanced stage disease, 73% had an unmutated IGHV gene, and 23% had 17p deletion orTP53 mutation. Patients had a median of one prior line of therapy (range: 1-8), 18% of patients had ≥3 prior lines of therapy, 78% had prior chemoimmunotherapy, and 2.3% had prior BCL2 inhibitor.

    Efficacy was based on overall response rate and duration of response as determined by an IRC. For progression-free survival per IRC, the final analysis occurred with a median follow-up of 31 months. Efficacy results are shown in Table 24 and Figure 2.

    Figure 2

    At the time of final analysis, the median overall survival was not reached in either arm. There were a total of 108 deaths: 48 (14.7%) in the zanubrutinib arm and 60 (18.5%) in the ibrutinib arm.

    14.5 Follicular Lymphoma

    The efficacy of BRUKINSA, in combination with obinutuzumab, was evaluated in Study BGB-3111-212 (ROSEWOOD; NCT03332017), an open-label, multicenter, randomized trial that enrolled 217 adult patients with relapsed or refractory FL after at least 2 prior systemic treatments. The study required prior receipt of an anti-CD20 antibody and an alkylator-based combination therapy, and excluded patients with FL Grade 3b, transformed lymphoma, and prior exposure to a BTK inhibitor.

    Patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either BRUKINSA 160 mg orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity plus obinutuzumab, or obinutuzumab alone. Obinutuzumab was administered 1,000 mg intravenously on days 1, 8, and 15 of Cycle 1, 1,000 mg on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6; and then 1,000 mg every 8 weeks for up to 20 doses. At the discretion of the investigator, obinutuzumab could be administered as 100 mg on Day 1 and 900 mg on Day 2 of Cycle 1.

    Randomization was stratified by the number of prior lines of therapy (2 to 3 vs ˃3), rituximab-refractory status (yes vs no), and geographic region.

    Of the 217 patients randomized (145 to BRUKINSA plus obinutuzumab, 72 to obinutuzumab monotherapy), the median age was 64 years (range: 31 to 88), 50% were male, 64% were White, and 22% were Asian. In total, 83% had stage 3 or 4 disease and 57% met Groupe d'Etude des Lymphomes Folliculaires (GELF) criteria at enrollment. Patients had a median of 3 prior lines of therapy (range: 2-11), with 27% of patients having more than 3 prior lines of therapy.

    In the BRUKINSA in combination with obinutuzumab arm, 5% had received lenalidomide plus rituximab, 21% had received stem cell transplantation, 53% had refractory disease to rituximab, and 37% had progression of disease within 24 months of the first systemic therapy.

    Efficacy was based on overall response rate and duration of response, as determined by an IRC. Efficacy results are shown in Table 25. The median time to response in the BRUKINSA combination arm was 2.8 months (range 2 to 23 months).
