LYNPARZA® (olaparib) Plus Abiraterone and Prednisone or Prednisolone Approved in Japan for the Treatment of BRCA-Mutated Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

First PARP inhibitor approved in Japan to demonstrate clinically meaningful benefits in combination with a new hormonal agent

AstraZeneca and Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside of the United States and Canada, today announced that LYNPARZA in combination with abiraterone and prednisone or prednisolone (abi/pred) has been approved in Japan for the treatment of adult patients with BRCA-mutated (BRCAm) castration-resistant prostate cancer with distant metastasis (mCRPC).

This approval by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare was based on an exploratory subgroup analysis of the Phase 3 PROpel trial which showed that LYNPARZA plus abi/pred demonstrated clinically meaningful improvements in both radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) (HR=0.23 [95% CI, 0.12-0.43]) and overall survival (OS) (HR=0.39 [95% CI, 0.16-0.86]) versus abi/pred alone in patients with BRCAm mCRPC. In the BRCAm subgroup (n=85), the median rPFS and median OS were not reached (NR) for patients receiving LYNPARZA plus abi/pred (95% CI, NR-NR for both rPFS and OS) compared to a median of 8.4 months (95% CI, 5.5-14.8) and 23.6 months (95% CI, 17.8-NR), respectively, for those receiving placebo plus abi/pred. As previously reported, there was a statistically significant improvement in rPFS in the full intention-to-treat (ITT) population in the PROpel trial (n=796).

The safety and tolerability of LYNPARZA plus abi/pred in PROpel was in line with that observed in prior clinical trials and the known profiles of the individual medicines. In the ITT population, common adverse events (AEs) in patients who received LYNPARZA plus abi/pred were anemia (45.5%), nausea (28.1%) and fatigue (27.9%).

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Japan and the sixth leading cause of cancer death in the region, with an estimated 96,400 new cases and 13,300 deaths in 2022. Despite various treatment options available, the prognosis for mCRPC remains poor, with limited treatment options for patients whose cancer progresses following initial treatment.

Mototsugu Oya, professor and chairman, department of urology, Keio University School of Medicine, Japan, said, “The PROpel trial showed that the combination of LYNPARZA plus abiraterone delivered clinically meaningful improvements in outcomes for patients with BRCAm mCRPC. With this approval, patients in Japan will now have the opportunity to benefit from this new treatment combination which has the potential to become the new standard of care for patients with BRCA mutations.”

Dave Fredrickson, executive vice president, oncology business unit, AstraZeneca, said, “This LYNPARZA combination has been shown to reduce the risk of disease progression or death compared to standard of care and underscores the critical importance of BRCA testing at metastatic diagnosis. Today’s approval is a major step forward for patients in Japan with BRCAm mCRPC who urgently need new first-line treatment options.”

Eliav Barr, senior vice president, head of global clinical development and chief medical officer, Merck Research Laboratories, said, “Prostate cancer impacts thousands of patients in Japan each year, and currently there are limited options available to those with metastatic disease. It is very important to develop and deliver novel treatment combinations to patients with BRCAm mCRPC that improve on the current standard of care.”

LYNPARZA plus abi/pred is approved in several other countries for the treatment of appropriate adult patients with mCRPC based on the PROpel trial. In the European Union (EU), LYNPARZA plus abi/pred is approved for the treatment of adult patients with mCRPC in whom chemotherapy is not clinically indicated, regardless of biomarker status. This combination is also approved in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCAm mCRPC. For the U.S. indication, patients should be selected for therapy based on an FDA-approved companion diagnostic for LYNPARZA.

In Japan, LYNPARZA was previously approved for patients with BRCAm mCRPC who have progressed following prior therapy that included a new hormonal agent (NHA) based on results from the Phase 3 PROfound trial. It is approved in the EU and China for the same indication, as well as in the U.S. for patients with homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene-mutated mCRPC (BRCA and other HRR gene mutations) who have progressed following prior treatment with enzalutamide or abiraterone. For the U.S. indication, patients are selected for therapy based on an FDA-approved companion diagnostic for LYNPARZA.

About PROpel

PROpel (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03732820) is a randomized, double-blind Phase 3 trial testing the efficacy, safety and tolerability of LYNPARZA versus placebo when given in addition to abi/pred in 796 patients with mCRPC who had not received prior chemotherapy or NHAs in the mCRPC setting. The major efficacy outcome was rPFS as assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1 and Prostate Cancer Working Group (bone) criteria. Overall survival was an additional efficacy outcome measure.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CONTRAINDICATIONS

There are no contraindications for LYNPARZA.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML): Occurred in approximately 1.5% of patients exposed to LYNPARZA monotherapy, and the majority of events had a fatal outcome. The median duration of therapy in patients who developed MDS/AML was 2 years (range: <6 months to >10 years). All of these patients had previous chemotherapy with platinum agents and/or other DNA-damaging agents, including radiotherapy.

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 0.8% of patients exposed to LYNPARZA monotherapy, 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.

Venous Thromboembolism (VTE): Including severe or fatal pulmonary embolism (PE) occurred in patients treated with LYNPARZA. In the combined data of two randomized, placebo-controlled clinical studies (PROfound and PROpel) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (N=1180), VTE occurred in 8% of patients who received LYNPARZA, including pulmonary embolism in 6%. In the control arms, VTE occurred in 2.5%, including pulmonary embolism in 1.5%. 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.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Based on its mechanism of action and findings in animals, LYNPARZA can cause fetal harm. Verify pregnancy status in 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.

About LYNPARZA® (olaparib)

LYNPARZA is a first-in-class PARP inhibitor and the first targeted treatment to potentially exploit DNA damage response (DDR) pathway deficiencies, such as BRCA mutations, to preferentially kill cancer cells. 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 tumor types with defects and dependencies in the DDR.

LYNPARZA, which is being jointly developed and commercialized by AstraZeneca and Merck, has a broad clinical trial development program, 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.

About metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer

Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in male patients globally and is associated with a significant mortality rate. 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 patients with prostate cancer are estimated to develop castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) within five years, with at least 84% of these patients presenting with metastases at the time of CRPC diagnosis. Of patients with no metastases at CRPC diagnosis, 33% are likely to develop metastases within two years.

About BRCA mutations

BRCA1 and BRCA2 (breast cancer susceptibility genes 1/2) are human genes that produce proteins responsible for repairing damaged DNA and play an important role maintaining the genetic stability of cells. When either of these genes is mutated or altered such that its protein product either is not made or does not function correctly, DNA damage may not be repaired properly, and cells become unstable. As a result, cells are more likely to develop additional genetic alterations that can lead to cancer. Approximately 10% of patients with mCRPC will have BRCA mutations, which are associated with a poor prognosis and worse outcomes.
