InnoCare Pharma (HKEX: 09969), a leading biopharmaceutical company, announced recently that the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) accepted a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor orelabrutinib for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory Waldenström’s Macroglobulinemia (R/R WM).

"According to the evaluation of the Independent Review Committee (IRC) and the principal investigators, the treatment of R/R WM patients with orelabrutinib at a dose of 150mg once a day reached the primary end point, showing encouraging efficacy, which is expected to improve with the extension of treatment time,” said Professor Daobin Zhou, Director of Hematology Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. “Meanwhile, orelabrutinib is well tolerated with safety profile in the treatment of WM patients. The incidence of adverse events, especially off-target related serious adverse events, is significantly lower in the clinical trial."

Dr. Jasmine Cui, Co-founder, Chairwoman and CEO of InnoCare said, "WM poses a threat to patients' lives. We are encouraged that NMPA has accepted the supplemental New Drug Application for orelabrutinib in the treatment of R/R WM. This sNDA includes 47 patients from 16 clinical centers in China. We hope that orelabrutinib will bring a novel treatment option to R/R WM patients.”

On December 25, 2020, orelabrutinib received approval from NMPA in two indications: the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) /small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), and the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).

About Waldenström’s Macroglobulinemia
Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia is a relatively slow-growing lymphoma characterized by the invasion of bone marrow by lymphoplasmacytic cells secreting monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM). The disease usually affects older adults and is primarily found in the bone marrow, although it may also impact lymph nodes and the spleen.
