ADC Therapeutics Announces Updated LOTIS-2 Results Demonstrating Durable, Long-Term Responses of ZYNLONTA® in Relapsed/Refractory DLBCL

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, June 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ADC Therapeutics SA (NYSE: ADCT) today announced updated results from LOTIS-2, the pivotal Phase 2 clinical trial of ZYNLONTA® (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl) in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The data are being presented in a poster today at the European Hematology Association 2023 Hybrid Congress (EHA2023) and will also be featured in an oral presentation at the 17th International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma (17-ICML) being held in Lugano, Switzerland from June 13-17, 2023.

“We’re pleased to be sharing updated LOTIS-2 results demonstrating the long‐term efficacy and safety of ZYNLONTA with the lymphoma community at EHA2023 and 17-ICML,” said Mohamed Zaki, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of ADC Therapeutics. “Importantly, 31% of patients who achieved a complete response remained event-free for two or more years and did not need new anticancer therapy, which we believe validates the durability of ZYNLONTA in heavily pretreated patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.”

The multicenter, open‐label, single‐arm Phase 2 LOTIS-2 study that evaluated ZYNLONTA in patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL after ≥2 prior systemic therapies resulted in an overall response rate (ORR) of 48.3% (70/145), with a complete response (CR) rate of 24.8% (36/145). The median (range) time to response was 41.0 (35 to 247) days for all responders and 42.0 (36 to 247) days for patients with a CR. All-grade treatment‐emergent adverse events occurring in ≥30% of all patients were increased gamma-glutamyltransferase (42%), neutropenia (40%), and thrombocytopenia (33%).

Key data from 145 evaluable patients as of the data cutoff of September 15, 2022 include the following:

  • The median duration of response (mDOR) was not reached for patients with a CR and was 13.37 months among all responding patients
  • Of the 36 patients with a CR, 11 (31%) were event-free for ≥2 years with no evidence of disease and no new anticancer therapy
  • In the subsets of patients who were event-free for ≥1 year and ≥2 years, the median (range) duration of time patients remained treatment-free post-ZYNLONTA was 24.8 (3.4 to 37.5) months and 27.7 (20.7 to 37.5) months, respectively
  • No new safety signals were identified

“The updated results of the LOTIS-2 study demonstrate significant clinical benefit for patients with recurrent diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, an aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma,” said Mehdi Hamadani, MD, Professor, Medical College of Wisconsin. “I am excited by the potential of ZYNLONTA to treat underserved patients. ZYNLONTA continues to be a welcome option for patients with difficult-to-treat lymphoma and gives hope to them and their families.”

About ZYNLONTA® (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl)

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency have approved ZYNLONTA (loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) large B-cell lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy, including DLBCL not otherwise specified, DLBCL arising from low-grade lymphoma and also high-grade B-cell lymphoma. The trial included a broad spectrum of heavily pre-treated patients (median three prior lines of therapy) with difficult-to-treat disease, including patients who did not respond to first-line therapy, patients refractory to all prior lines of therapy, patients with double/triple hit genetics and patients who had stem cell transplant and CAR-T therapy prior to their treatment with ZYNLONTA. This indication is approved by the FDA under accelerated approval and in the European Union under conditional approval based on overall response rate and continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial.
