Breyanzi®: A safety profile in 3L+ CLL you can count on that builds on evidence seen in clinical trials and other lymphoma indications1

The primary safety analysis was conducted in the full safety set (N=702), which included all patients who received a single dose of CAR-positive viable T cells.

3.2% Grade ≥3 CRS events reported in Breyanzi trials1
Majority of CRS events were low grade and most resolved quickly
Grade of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in Breyanzi R/R CLL/SLL patients in the TRANSCEND CLL 004 clinical trial Grade of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in Breyanzi R/R CLL/SLL patients in the TRANSCEND CLL 004 clinical trial
Breyanzi offers the flexibility of inpatient or outpatient administration for appropriate patients1
CRS-related clinical trial details (N=702)1,2
  • 29.5% of patients received tocilizumab and/or corticosteroids
    • 1.7% used corticosteroids only
    • 14.5% used tocilizumab only
    • Prophylactic systemic corticosteroids were not used in Breyanzi trials
  • CRS resolved in 98% of patients with a median duration of 5 (range: 1-37) days
  • One patient had fatal CRS and 5 patients had ongoing CRS at the time of death
  • The most common manifestations of CRS (≥10%) included fever, hypotension, chills, tachycardia, hypoxia, and headache
Cytokine release syndrome warnings and precautions1
  • CRS, including fatal or life-threatening reactions, occurred following treatment with Breyanzi
  • Serious events that may be associated with CRS include cardiac arrhythmias (including atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia), cardiac arrest, cardiac failure, diffuse alveolar damage, renal insufficiency, capillary leak syndrome, hypotension, hypoxia, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis/macrophage activation syndrome
  • Ensure that 2 doses of tocilizumab are available prior to infusion of Breyanzi
  • Monitor patients daily for at least 7 days at a REMS-certified healthcare facility following infusion for signs and symptoms of CRS. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of CRS for at least 4 weeks after infusion. At the first sign of CRS, institute treatment with supportive care, tocilizumab, or tocilizumab and corticosteroids as indicated
  • Counsel patients to seek immediate medical attention should signs or symptoms of CRS occur at any time

10% Grade ≥3 NT in Breyanzi trials1
Majority of NT events were low grade and most resolved quickly1
Grade of neurologic toxicities (NT) in Breyanzi 3L+ CLL/SLL patients Grade of neurologic toxicities (NT) in Breyanzi 3L+ CLL/SLL patients
Breyanzi offers the flexibility of inpatient or outpatient administration for appropriate patients1
NT-related clinical trial details (N=702)1
  • NTs resolved in 88% of cases with a median duration of 7 (range: 1-119) days
  • 82% of patients with NT developed CRS
  • The most common NTs (≥5%) included encephalopathy, tremor, aphasia, delirium, and headache
Neurologic toxicity warnings and precautions1
  • NTs that were fatal or life-threatening, including immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), occurred following treatment with Breyanzi. Serious events including cerebral edema and seizures occurred with Breyanzi. Fatal and serious cases of leukoencephalopathy, some attributable to fludarabine, also occurred
  • Monitor patients daily at least for at least 7 days following Breyanzi infusion at a REMS-certified healthcare facility for signs and symptoms of NTs and assess for other causes of neurological symptoms. Monitor patients for signs or symptoms of NTs for at least 4 weeks after infusion and treat promptly. Manage NT with supportive care and/or corticosteroid as needed
  • Counsel patients to seek immediate medical attention should signs or symptoms of NT occur at any time

Most common adverse reactions observed in TRANSCEND CLL 0041
  • Serious adverse reactions occurred in 60% of patients
  • The most common nonlaboratory serious adverse reactions (>2%) were CRS, encephalopathy, febrile neutropenia, pneumonia, hemorrhage, fever, renal failure, aphasia, abdominal pain, delirium, tumor lysis syndrome, upper respiratory tract infection, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (IEC-HS). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1.1% of patients
  • The most common nonlaboratory adverse reactions (≥20%) were CRS, encephalopathy, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, nausea, edema, diarrhea, dyspnea, headache, fever, decreased appetite, constipation, tremor, dizziness, infection with pathogen unspecified, rash, tachycardia, cough, and delirium
