L01EL01 ibrutinib • Antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents | Protein kinase inhibitors | Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors

Ibrutinib is a selective Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor used to treat certain types of hematologic cancers, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), mantle cell lymphoma, and Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia. It works by blocking BTK, an enzyme essential for the survival and proliferation of cancer cells.

It is taken orally and is preferred in many cases due to its effectiveness and safety profile compared to conventional therapies.

Ibrutinib significantly improves survival rates in CLL patients and is more effective than traditional treatments such as combination chemotherapy. It is also used as a first-line treatment for certain lymphomas.

However, it can cause side effects, including bleeding, hypertension, arrhythmias, and an increased risk of infections.

4.1 Therapeutic indications

IMBRUVICA as a single agent is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed orrefractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).

IMBRUVICA as a single agent or in combination with rituximab or obinutuzumab or venetoclax isindicated for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia(CLL) (see section 5.1).

IMBRUVICA as a single agent or in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) is indicatedfor the treatment of adult patients with CLL who have received at least one prior therapy.

IMBRUVICA as a single agent is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with Waldenström’smacroglobulinaemia (WM) who have received at least one prior therapy, or in first line treatment forpatients unsuitable for chemo-immunotherapy. IMBRUVICA in combination with rituximab isindicated for the treatment of adult patients with WM.

4.2 Posology and method of administration

Treatment with this medicinal product should be initiated and supervised by a physician experiencedin the use of anticancer medicinal products.

Posology

MCL

The recommended dose for the treatment of MCL is 560 mg once daily.

CLL and WM

The recommended dose for the treatment of CLL and WM, either as a single agent or in combination,is 420 mg once daily (for details of the combination regimens, see section 5.1).

Treatment with IMBRUVICA should continue until disease progression or no longer tolerated by thepatient. In combination with venetoclax for the treatment of CLL, IMBRUVICA should beadministered as a single agent for 3 cycles (1 cycle is 28 days), followed by 12 cycles of

IMBRUVICA plus venetoclax. See the venetoclax Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) forfull venetoclax dosing information.

When administering IMBRUVICA in combination with anti-CD20 therapy, it is recommended toadminister IMBRUVICA prior to anti-CD20 therapy when given on the same day.

Dose adjustments

Moderate and strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increase the exposure of ibrutinib (see sections 4.4 and 4.5).

The dose of ibrutinib should be reduced to 280 mg once daily when used concomitantly with moderate

CYP3A4 inhibitors.

The dose of ibrutinib should be reduced to 140 mg once daily or withheld for up to 7 days when it isused concomitantly with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors.

IMBRUVICA therapy should be withheld for any new onset or worsening grade 2 cardiac failure,grade 3 cardiac arrhythmias, grade ≥3 non-haematological toxicity, grade 3 or greater neutropenia withinfection or fever, or grade 4 haematological toxicities. Once the symptoms of the toxicity haveresolved to grade 1 or baseline (recovery), resume IMBRUVICA therapy at the recommended dose asper the tables below.

Recommended dose modifications for non-cardiac events are described below:

Missed dose

If a dose is not taken at the scheduled time, it can be taken as soon as possible on the same day with areturn to the normal schedule the following day. The patient should not take extra tablets to make upthe missed dose.

Special populations
Elderly

No specific dose adjustment is required for elderly patients (aged ≥65 years).

Renal impairment

No specific clinical studies have been conducted in patients with renal impairment. Patients with mildor moderate renal impairment were treated in IMBRUVICA clinical studies. No dose adjustment isneeded for patients with mild or moderate renal impairment (greater than 30 mL/min creatinineclearance). Hydration should be maintained and serum creatinine levels monitored periodically.

Administer IMBRUVICA to patients with severe renal impairment (<30 mL/min creatinine clearance)only if the benefit outweighs the risk and monitor patients closely for signs of toxicity. There are nodata in patients with severe renal impairment or patients on dialysis (see section 5.2).

Hepatic impairment

Ibrutinib is metabolised in the liver. In a hepatic impairment study, data showed an increase inibrutinib exposure (see section 5.2). For patients with mild liver impairment (Child-Pugh class A), therecommended dose is 280 mg daily. For patients with moderate liver impairment (Child-Pughclass B), the recommended dose is 140 mg daily. Monitor patients for signs of IMBRUVICA toxicityand follow dose modification guidance as needed. It is not recommended to administer IMBRUVICAto patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh class C).

Severe cardiac disease

Patients with severe cardiovascular disease were excluded from IMBRUVICA clinical studies.

Paediatric population

IMBRUVICA is not recommended for use in children and adolescents aged 0 to 18 years as efficacyhas not been established. Currently available data in patients with mature B-cell non-Hodgkinlymphoma are described in sections 4.8, 5.1 and 5.2.

Method of administration

IMBRUVICA should be administered orally once daily with a glass of water approximately at thesame time each day. The tablets should be swallowed whole with water and should not be broken orchewed. IMBRUVICA must not be taken with grapefruit juice or Seville oranges (see section 4.5).

4.3 Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients listed in section 6.1.

Use of preparations containing St. John’s Wort is contraindicated in patients treated with

IMBRUVICA.

4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use

Bleeding-related events

There have been reports of bleeding events in patients treated with IMBRUVICA, both with andwithout thrombocytopenia. These include minor bleeding events such as contusion, epistaxis, andpetechiae; and major bleeding events, some fatal, including gastrointestinal bleeding, intracranialhaemorrhage, and haematuria.

Warfarin or other vitamin K antagonists should not be administered concomitantly with

IMBRUVICA.

Use of either anticoagulants or medicinal products that inhibit platelet function (antiplatelet agents)concomitantly with IMBRUVICA increases the risk of major bleeding. A higher risk for majorbleeding was observed with anticoagulant than with antiplatelet agents. Consider the risks and benefitsof anticoagulant or antiplatelet therapy when co-administered with IMBRUVICA. Monitor for signsand symptoms of bleeding.

Supplements such as fish oil and vitamin E preparations should be avoided.

IMBRUVICA should be held at least 3 to 7 days pre- and post-surgery depending upon the type ofsurgery and the risk of bleeding.

The mechanism for the bleeding-related events is not fully understood. Patients with congenitalbleeding diathesis have not been studied.

Leukostasis

Cases of leukostasis have been reported in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. A high number ofcirculating lymphocytes (>400 000/mcL) may confer increased risk. Consider temporarily withholding

IMBRUVICA. Patients should be closely monitored. Administer supportive care including hydrationand/or cytoreduction as indicated.

Splenic rupture

Cases of splenic rupture have been reported following discontinuation of IMBRUVICA treatment.

Disease status and spleen size should be carefully monitored (e.g. clinical examination, ultrasound)when IMBRUVICA treatment is interrupted or ceased. Patients who develop left upper abdominal orshoulder tip pain should be evaluated and a diagnosis of splenic rupture should be considered.

Infections

Infections (including sepsis, neutropenic sepsis, bacterial, viral, or fungal infections) were observed inpatients treated with IMBRUVICA. Some of these infections have been associated with hospitalisationand death. Most patients with fatal infections also had neutropenia. Patients should be monitored forfever, abnormal liver function tests, neutropenia and infections and appropriate anti-infective therapyshould be instituted as indicated. Consider prophylaxis according to standard of care in patients whoare at increased risk for opportunistic infections.

Cases of invasive fungal infections, including cases of Aspergillosis, Cryptococcosis and

Pneumocystis jiroveci infections have been reported following the use of ibrutinib. Reported cases ofinvasive fungal infections have been associated with fatal outcomes.

Cases of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) including fatal ones have been reportedfollowing the use of ibrutinib within the context of a prior or concomitant immunosuppressive therapy.

Physicians should consider PML in the differential diagnosis in patients with new or worseningneurological, cognitive or behavioral signs or symptoms. If PML is suspected then appropriatediagnostic evaluations should be undertaken and treatment suspended until PML is excluded. If anydoubt exists, referral to a neurologist and appropriate diagnostic measures for PML including MRIscan preferably with contrast, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) testing for JC Viral DNA and repeatneurological assessments should be considered.

Hepatic events

Cases of hepatotoxicity, hepatitis B reactivation, and cases of hepatitis E, which may be chronic, haveoccurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Hepatic failure, including fatal events, has occurred inpatients treated with IMBRUVICA. Liver function and viral hepatitis status should be assessed beforeinitiating treatment with IMBRUVICA. Patients should be periodically monitored for changes in liverfunction parameters during treatment. As clinically indicated, viral load and serological testing forinfectious hepatitis should be performed per local medical guidelines. For patients diagnosed withhepatic events, consider consulting a liver disease expert for management.

Cytopenias

Treatment-emergent grade 3 or 4 cytopenias (neutropenia, thrombocytopenia and anaemia) werereported in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Monitor complete blood counts monthly.

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD)

Cases of ILD have been reported in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Monitor patients forpulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD. If symptoms develop, interrupt IMBRUVICA and manage

ILD appropriately. If symptoms persist, consider the risks and benefits of IMBRUVICA treatment andfollow the dose modification guidelines.

Cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac failure

Fatal and serious cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac failure have occurred in patients treated with

IMBRUVICA. Patients with advanced age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG)performance status ≥2, or cardiac co-morbidities may be at greater risk of events including suddenfatal cardiac events. Atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular tachyarrhythmia and cardiac failurehave been reported, particularly in patients with acute infections or cardiac risk factors includinghypertension, diabetes mellitus, and a previous history of cardiac arrhythmia.

Appropriate clinical evaluation of cardiac history and function should be performed prior to initiating

IMBRUVICA. Patients should be carefully monitored during treatment for signs of clinicaldeterioration of cardiac function and clinically managed. Consider further evaluation (e.g., ECG,echocardiogram), as indicated for patients in whom there are cardiovascular concerns.

For patients with relevant risk factors for cardiac events, carefully assess benefit/risk before initiatingtreatment with IMBRUVICA; alternative treatment may be considered.

In patients who develop signs and/or symptoms of ventricular tachyarrhythmia, IMBRUVICA shouldbe temporarily discontinued and a thorough clinical benefit/risk assessment should be performedbefore possibly restarting therapy.

In patients with preexisting atrial fibrillation requiring anticoagulant therapy, alternative treatmentoptions to IMBRUVICA should be considered. In patients who develop atrial fibrillation on therapywith IMBRUVICA a thorough assessment of the risk for thromboembolic disease should beundertaken. In patients at high risk and where alternatives to IMBRUVICA are non-suitable, tightlycontrolled treatment with anticoagulants should be considered.

Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of cardiac failure during IMBRUVICAtreatment. In some of these cases cardiac failure resolved or improved after IMBRUVICA withdrawalor dose reduction.

Cerebrovascular accidents

Cases of cerebrovascular accident, transient ischaemic attack and ischaemic stroke including fatalitieshave been reported in patients treated with IMBRUVICA, with and without concomitant atrialfibrillation and/or hypertension. Among cases with reported latency, the initiation of treatment with

IMBRUVICA to the onset of ischaemic central nervous vascular conditions was in the most casesafter several months (more than 1 month in 78% and more than 6 months in 44% of cases)emphasising the need for regular monitoring of patients (please see section 4.4 Cardiac arrhythmia and

Hypertension and section 4.8).

Tumour lysis syndrome

Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) has been reported with IMBRUVICA therapy. Patients at risk oftumour lysis syndrome are those with high tumour burden prior to treatment. Monitor patients closelyand take appropriate precautions.

Non-melanoma skin cancer

Non-melanoma skin cancers were reported more frequently in patients treated with IMBRUVICA thanin patients treated with comparators in pooled comparative randomised phase 3 studies. Monitorpatients for the appearance of non-melanoma skin cancer.

Hypertension

Hypertension has occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA (see section 4.8). Regularly monitorblood pressure in patients treated with IMBRUVICA and initiate or adjust antihypertensive medicationthroughout treatment with IMBRUVICA as appropriate.

Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)

Cases of HLH (including fatal cases) have been reported in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. HLHis a life-threatening syndrome of pathologic immune activation characterised by clinical signs andsymptoms of extreme systemic inflammation. HLH is characterised by fever, hepatosplenomegaly,hypertriglyceridaemia, high serum ferritin and cytopenias. Patients should be informed aboutsymptoms of HLH. Patients who develop early manifestations of pathologic immune activation shouldbe evaluated immediately, and a diagnosis of HLH should be considered.

Drug-drug interactions

Co-administration of strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors with IMBRUVICA may lead to increasedibrutinib exposure and consequently a higher risk for toxicity. On the contrary, co-administration of

CYP3A4 inducers may lead to decreased IMBRUVICA exposure and consequently a risk for lack ofefficacy. Therefore, concomitant use of IMBRUVICA with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and strong ormoderate CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided whenever possible and co-administration should onlybe considered when the potential benefits clearly outweigh the potential risks. Patients should beclosely monitored for signs of IMBRUVICA toxicity if a CYP3A4 inhibitor must be used (seesections 4.2 and 4.5). If a CYP3A4 inducer must be used, closely monitor patients for signs of

IMBRUVICA lack of efficacy.

Women of childbearing potential

Women of childbearing potential must use a highly effective method of contraception while taking

IMBRUVICA (see section 4.6).

Excipients with known effect

Patients with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, total lactase deficiency orglucose-galactose malabsorption should not take this medicinal product.

Each film-coated tablet contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg), and is essentially sodium-free.

4.5 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

Ibrutinib is primarily metabolised by cytochrome P450 enzyme 3A4 (CYP3A4).

Agents that may increase ibrutinib plasma concentrations

Concomitant use of IMBRUVICA and medicinal products that strongly or moderately inhibit

CYP3A4 can increase ibrutinib exposure and strong CYP3A4 inhibitors should be avoided.

Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors

Co-administration of ketoconazole, a very strong CYP3A4 inhibitor, in 18 fasted healthy subjects,increased exposure (Cmax and AUC) of ibrutinib by 29- and 24-fold, respectively. Simulations usingfasted conditions suggested that the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor clarithromycin may increase the AUC ofibrutinib by a factor of 14. In patients with B-cell malignancies taking IMBRUVICA with food,co-administration of the strong CYP3A4 inhibitor voriconazole increased Cmax by 6.7-fold and AUCby 5.7-fold. Strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 (e.g., ketoconazole, indinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir,saquinavir, clarithromycin, telithromycin, itraconazole, nefazodone, cobicistat, voriconazole andposaconazole) should be avoided. If the benefit outweighs the risk and a strong CYP3A4 inhibitormust be used, reduce the IMBRUVICA dose to 140 mg for the duration of the inhibitor use orwithhold IMBRUVICA temporarily (for 7 days or less). Monitor patient closely for toxicity andfollow dose modification guidance as needed (see sections 4.2 and 4.4).

Moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors

In patients with B-cell malignancies taking IMBRUVICA with food, co-administration of the

CYP3A4 inhibitor erythromycin increased Cmax by 3.4-fold and AUC by 3.0-fold. If a moderate

CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., fluconazole, erythromycin, amprenavir, aprepitant, atazanavir, ciprofloxacin,crizotinib, diltiazem, fosamprenavir, imatinib, verapamil, amiodarone and dronedarone) is indicated,reduce IMBRUVICA dose to 280 mg for the duration of the inhibitor use. Monitor patient closely fortoxicity and follow dose modification guidance as needed (see sections 4.2 and 4.4).

Mild CYP3A4 inhibitors

Simulations using fasted conditions suggested that the mild CYP3A4 inhibitors azithromycin andfluvoxamine may increase the AUC of ibrutinib by <2-fold. No dose adjustment is required incombination with mild inhibitors. Monitor patient closely for toxicity and follow dose modificationguidance as needed.

Co-administration of grapefruit juice, containing CYP3A4 inhibitors, in eight healthy subjects,increased exposure (Cmax and AUC) of ibrutinib by approximately 4- and 2-fold, respectively.

Grapefruit and Seville oranges should be avoided during IMBRUVICA treatment, as these containmoderate inhibitors of CYP3A4 (see section 4.2).

Agents that may decrease ibrutinib plasma concentrations

Administration of IMBRUVICA with inducers of CYP3A4 can decrease ibrutinib plasmaconcentrations.

Co-administration of rifampicin, a strong CYP3A4 inducer, in 18 fasted healthy subjects, decreasedexposure (Cmax and AUC) of ibrutinib by 92 and 90%, respectively. Avoid concomitant use of strongor moderate CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., carbamazepine, rifampicin, phenytoin). Preparations containing

St. John's Wort are contraindicated during treatment with IMBRUVICA, as efficacy may be reduced.

Consider alternative agents with less CYP3A4 induction. If the benefit outweighs the risk and a strongor moderate CYP3A4 inducer must be used, monitor patient closely for lack of efficacy (seesections 4.3 and 4.4). Mild inducers may be used concomitantly with IMBRUVICA, however, patientsshould be monitored for potential lack of efficacy.

Ibrutinib has a pH dependent solubility, with lower solubility at higher pH. A lower Cmax was observedin fasted healthy subjects administered a single 560 mg dose of ibrutinib after taking omeprazole at40 mg once daily for 5 days (see section 5.2). There is no evidence that the lower Cmax would haveclinical significance, and medicinal products that increase stomach pH (e.g., proton pump inhibitors)have been used without restrictions in the pivotal clinical studies.

Agents that may have their plasma concentrations altered by ibrutinib

Ibrutinib is a P-gp and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) inhibitor in vitro. As no clinical dataare available on this interaction, it cannot be excluded that ibrutinib could inhibit intestinal P-gp and

BCRP after a therapeutic dose. To minimise the potential for an interaction in the GI tract, oral narrowtherapeutic range, P-gp or BCRP substrates such as digoxin or methotrexate should be taken at least6 hours before or after IMBRUVICA. Ibrutinib may also inhibit BCRP in the liver and increase theexposure of medicinal products that undergo BCRP-mediated hepatic efflux, such as rosuvastatin.

In studies of ibrutinib (420 mg) in combination with venetoclax (400 mg) in CLL patients, an increasein venetoclax exposure (approximately 1.8-fold based on AUC) was observed compared withmonotherapy data for venetoclax.

In a drug interaction study in patients with B-cell malignancies, a single 560 mg dose of ibrutinib didnot have a clinically meaningful effect on the exposure of the CYP3A4 substrate midazolam. In thesame study, 2 weeks of treatment with ibrutinib at 560 mg daily had no clinically relevant effect on thepharmacokinetics of oral contraceptives (ethinylestradiol and levonorgestrel), the CYP3A4 substratemidazolam, nor the CYP2B6 substrate bupropion.

4.6 Fertility, pregnancy and lactation

Women of child-bearing potential/Contraception in females

Based on findings in animals, IMBRUVICA may cause foetal harm when administered to pregnantwomen. Women should avoid becoming pregnant while taking IMBRUVICA and for up to 3 monthsafter ending treatment. Therefore, women of child-bearing potential must use highly effectivecontraceptive measures while taking IMBRUVICA and for three months after stopping treatment.

Pregnancy

IMBRUVICA should not be used during pregnancy. There are no data from the use of IMBRUVICAin pregnant women. Studies in animals have shown reproductive toxicity (see section 5.3).

Breast-feeding

It is not known whether ibrutinib or its metabolites are excreted in human milk. A risk to breast-fedchildren cannot be excluded. Breast-feeding should be discontinued during treatment with

IMBRUVICA.

Fertility

No effects on fertility or reproductive capacities were observed in male or female rats up to themaximum dose tested, 100 mg/kg/day (Human Equivalent Dose [HED] 16 mg/kg/day) (seesection 5.3). No human data on the effects of ibrutinib on fertility are available.

4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines

IMBRUVICA has minor influence on the ability to drive and use machines.

Fatigue, dizziness and asthenia have been reported in some patients taking IMBRUVICA and shouldbe considered when assessing a patient’s ability to drive or operate machines.

4.8 Undesirable effects

Summary of the safety profile

The most commonly occurring adverse reactions (≥20%) were diarrhoea, neutropenia, musculoskeletalpain, haemorrhage (e.g., bruising), rash, nausea, thrombocytopenia, arthralgia, and upper respiratorytract infection. The most common grade 3/4 adverse reactions (≥5%) were neutropenia,lymphocytosis, thrombocytopenia, hypertension, and pneumonia.

Tabulated list of adverse reactions

The safety profile is based on pooled data from 1 981 patients treated with IMBRUVICA in fourphase 2 clinical studies and eight randomised phase 3 studies and from post-marketing experience.

Patients treated for MCL in clinical studies received IMBRUVICA at 560 mg once daily and patientstreated for CLL or WM in clinical studies received IMBRUVICA at 420 mg once daily. All patients inclinical studies received IMBRUVICA until disease progression or no longer tolerated, except forstudies with IMBRUVICA in combination with venetoclax where patients received fixed durationtreatment (Studies CLL3011 and PCYC-1142-CA). The median duration of IMBRUVICA treatmentacross the pooled dataset was 14.7 months. The median duration of treatment for CLL/SLL was14.7 months (up to 52 months); MCL was 11.7 months (up to 28 months); WM was 21.6 months (upto 37 months).

Adverse reactions in patients treated with ibrutinib for B-cell malignancies and post-marketing adversereactions are listed below by system organ class and frequency grouping. Frequencies are defined asfollows: very common (≥1/10), common (≥1/100 to <1/10), uncommon (≥1/1 000 to <1/100), rare(≥1/10 000 to <1/1 000), not known (cannot be estimated from the available data). Within eachfrequency grouping, undesirable effects are presented in order of decreasing seriousness.

Description of selected adverse reactions

Discontinuation and dose reduction due to adverse reactions

Of the 1 981 patients treated with IMBRUVICA for B-cell malignancies, 6% discontinued treatmentprimarily due to adverse reactions. These included pneumonia, atrial fibrillation, neutropenia, rash,thrombocytopenia, and haemorrhage. Adverse reactions leading to dose reduction occurred inapproximately 8% of patients.

Elderly

Of the 1 981 patients treated with IMBRUVICA, 50% were 65 years of age or older. Grade 3 or higherpneumonia (11% of patients age ≥65 versus 4% of patients <65 years) and thrombocytopenia (11% ofpatients age ≥65 years versus 5% of patients <65 years) occurred more frequently among elderlypatients treated with IMBRUVICA.

Long-term safety

The safety data from long-term treatment with IMBRUVICA over 5 years from 1 284 patients(treatment-naïve CLL/SLL n=162, relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL n=646, relapsed/refractory MCLn=370, and WM n=106) were analysed. The median duration of treatment for CLL/SLL was51 months (range, 0.2 to 98 months) with 70% and 52% of patients receiving treatment for more than2 years and 4 years, respectively. The median duration of treatment for MCL was 11 months (range, 0to 87 months) with 31% and 17% of patients receiving treatment for more than 2 years and 4 years,respectively. The median duration of treatment for WM was 47 months (range, 0.3 to 61 months) with78% and 46% of patients receiving treatment for more than 2 years and 4 years, respectively. Theoverall known safety profile of IMBRUVICA-exposed patients remained consistent, other than anincreasing prevalence of hypertension, with no new safety concerns identified. The prevalence for

Grade 3 or greater hypertension was 4% (year 0-1), 7% (year 1-2), 9% (year 2-3), 9% (year 3-4), and9% (year 4-5); the overall incidence for the 5-year period was 11%.

Paediatric population

The safety assessment is based on data from a Phase 3 study of IMBRUVICA in combination witheither a rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and dexamethasone (RICE) regimen, or arituximab, vincristine, ifosfamide, carboplatin, idarubicin, and dexamethasone (RVICI) regimen, asbackground therapy or background therapy alone in paediatric and young adult patients (aged 3 to19 years) with relapsed or refractory mature B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (see section 5.1). No newadverse reactions were observed in this study.

Reporting of suspected adverse reactions

Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. Itallows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcareprofessionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reactions via the national reporting systemlisted in Appendix V.

4.9 Overdose

There are limited data on the effects of IMBRUVICA overdose. No maximum tolerated dose wasreached in the phase 1 study in which patients received up to 12.5 mg/kg/day (1 400 mg/day). In aseparate study, one healthy subject who received a dose of 1 680 mg experienced reversible grade 4hepatic enzyme increases [aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)].

There is no specific antidote for IMBRUVICA. Patients who ingested more than the recommendeddose should be closely monitored and given appropriate supportive treatment.

5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties

Pharmacotherapeutic group: Antineoplastic agents, protein kinase inhibitors, ATC code: L01EL01.

Mechanism of action

Ibrutinib is a potent, small-molecule inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). Ibrutinib forms acovalent bond with a cysteine residue (Cys-481) in the BTK active site, leading to sustained inhibitionof BTK enzymatic activity. BTK, a member of the Tec kinase family, is an important signallingmolecule of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. The BCR pathway isimplicated in the pathogenesis of several B-cell malignancies, including MCL, diffuse large B-celllymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma, and CLL. BTK’s pivotal role in signalling through the

B-cell surface receptors results in activation of pathways necessary for B-cell trafficking, chemotaxisand adhesion. Preclinical studies have shown that ibrutinib effectively inhibits malignant B-cellproliferation and survival in vivo as well as cell migration and substrate adhesion in vitro.

In preclinical tumour models, the combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax resulted in increasedcellular apoptosis and anti-tumor activity compared to either agent alone. BTK inhibition by ibrutinibincreases CLL cell dependence on BCL-2, a cell survival pathway, while venetoclax inhibits BCL-2leading to apoptosis.

Lymphocytosis

Upon initiation of treatment, a reversible increase in lymphocyte counts (i.e., ≥50% increase frombaseline and an absolute count >5 000/mcL), often associated with reduction of lymphadenopathy, hasbeen observed in about three fourths of patients with CLL treated with IMBRUVICA. This effect hasalso been observed in about one third of patients with relapsed or refractory MCL treated with

IMBRUVICA. This observed lymphocytosis is a pharmacodynamic effect and should not beconsidered progressive disease in the absence of other clinical findings. In both disease types,lymphocytosis typically occurs during the first month of IMBRUVICA therapy and typically resolveswithin a median of 8.0 weeks in patients with MCL and 14 weeks in patients with CLL. A largeincrease in the number of circulating lymphocytes (e.g., >400 000/mcL) has been observed in somepatients.

Lymphocytosis was not observed in patients with WM treated with IMBRUVICA.

In vitro platelet aggregation

In an in vitro study, ibrutinib demonstrated inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation.

Ibrutinib did not show meaningful inhibition of platelet aggregation using other agonists of plateletaggregation.

Effect on QT/QTc interval and cardiac electrophysiology

The effect of ibrutinib on the QTc interval was evaluated in 20 healthy male and female subjects in arandomised, double-blind thorough QT study with placebo and positive controls. At a supratherapeuticdose of 1 680 mg, ibrutinib did not prolong the QTc interval to any clinically relevant extent. Thelargest upper bound of the 2-sided 90% CI for the baseline adjusted mean differences betweenibrutinib and placebo was below 10 ms. In this same study, a concentration dependent shortening inthe QTc interval was observed (-5.3 ms [90% CI: -9.4, -1.1] at a Cmax of 719 ng/mL following thesupratherapeutic dose of 1 680 mg).

Clinical efficacy and safety

MCL

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in patients with relapsed or refractory MCL were evaluatedin a single open-label, multi-center phase 2 study (PCYC-1104-CA) of 111 patients. The median agewas 68 years (range: 40 to 84 years), 77% were male and 92% were Caucasian. Patients with ECOGperformance status of 3 or greater were excluded from the study. The median time since diagnosis was42 months, and median number of prior treatments was 3 (range: 1 to 5 treatments), including 35%with prior high-dose chemotherapy, 43% with prior bortezomib, 24% with prior lenalidomide, and11% with prior autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplant. At baseline, 39% of patients had bulkydisease (≥5 cm), 49% had high-risk score by Simplified MCL International Prognostic Index (MIPI),and 72% had advanced disease (extranodal and/or bone marrow involvement) at screening.

IMBRUVICA was administered orally at 560 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptabletoxicity. Tumour response was assessed according to the revised International Working Group (IWG)for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) criteria. The primary endpoint in this study wasinvestigator-assessed overall response rate (ORR). Responses to IMBRUVICA are shown in Table 2.

The efficacy data was further evaluated by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) demonstrating an

ORR of 69%, with a 21% complete response (CR) rate and a 48% partial response (PR) rate. The IRCestimated median DOR was 19.6 months.

The overall response to IMBRUVICA was independent of prior treatment including bortezomib andlenalidomide or underlying risk/prognostic factors, bulky disease, gender or age.

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA were demonstrated in a randomised phase 3, open-label,multicenter study including 280 patients with MCL who received at least one prior therapy (Study

MCL3001). Patients were randomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA orally at 560 mg once dailyfor 21 days or temsirolimus intravenously at 175 mg on Days 1, 8, 15 of the first cycle followed by75 mg on Days 1, 8, 15 of each subsequent 21-day cycle. Treatment on both arms continued untildisease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median age was 68 years (range, 34; 88 years), 74%were male and 87% were Caucasian. The median time since diagnosis was 43 months, and mediannumber of prior treatments was 2 (range: 1 to 9 treatments), including 51% with prior high-dosechemotherapy, 18% with prior bortezomib, 5% with prior lenalidomide, and 24% with prior stem celltransplant. At baseline, 53% of patients had bulky disease (≥5 cm), 21% had high-risk score by

Simplified MIPI, 60% had extranodal disease and 54% had bone marrow involvement at screening.

Progression-free survival (PFS) was assessed by IRC according to the revised International Working

Group (IWG) for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) criteria. Efficacy results for Study MCL3001 areshown in Table 3 and the Kaplan-Meier curve for PFS in Figure 1.

CLL

Patients previously untreated for CLL

Single agent

A randomised, multicenter, open-label phase 3 study (PCYC-1115-CA) of IMBRUVICA versuschlorambucil was conducted in patients with treatment-naïve CLL who were 65 years of age or older.

Patients between 65 and 70 years of age were required to have at least one comorbidity that precludedthe use of frontline chemo-immunotherapy with fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab.

Patients (n=269) were randomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA 420 mg daily until diseaseprogression or unacceptable toxicity, or chlorambucil at a starting dose of 0.5 mg/kg on days 1 and15 of each 28-day cycle for a maximum of 12 cycles, with an allowance for intrapatient dose increasesup to 0.8 mg/kg based on tolerability. After confirmed disease progression, patients on chlorambucilwere able to crossover to ibrutinib.

The median age was 73 years (range, 65 to 90 years), 63% were male, and 91% were Caucasian.

Ninety one percent of patients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 and 9% had an

ECOG performance status of 2. The study enrolled 269 patients with CLL. At baseline, 45% hadadvanced clinical stage (Rai Stage III or IV), 35% of patients had at least one tumor ≥5 cm, 39% withbaseline anaemia, 23% with baseline thrombocytopenia, 65% had elevated β2 microglobulin>3 500 mcg/L, 47% had a CrCL<60 mL/min, 20% of patients presented with del11q, 6% of patientspresented with del17p/tumor protein 53 (TP53) mutation, and 44% of patients presented withunmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV).

Progression free survival (PFS) as assessed by IRC according to International Workshop on CLL(IWCLL) criteria indicated an 84% statistically significant reduction in the risk of death or progressionin the IMBRUVICA arm. Efficacy results for Study PCYC-1115-CA are shown in Table 4 and the

Kaplan-Meier curves for PFS and OS are shown in Figures 2 and 3, respectively.

There was a statistically significant sustained platelet or haemoglobin improvement in the ITTpopulation in favor of ibrutinib versus chlorambucil. In patients with baseline cytopenias, sustainedhaematologic improvement was: platelets 77.1% versus 42.9%; haemoglobin 84.3% versus 45.5% foribrutinib and chlorambucil, respectively.

With a median follow-up time on study of 48 months in Study PCYC-1115-CA and its extensionstudy, an 86% reduction in the risk of death or progression by investigator assessment was observedfor patients in the IMBRUVICA arm. The median investigator-assessed PFS was not reached in the

IMBRUVICA arm and was 15 months [95% CI (10.22, 19.35)] in the chlorambucil arm; (HR=0.14[95% CI (0.09, 0.21)]). The 4-year PFS estimate was 73.9% in the IMBRUVICA arm and 15.5% inthe chlorambucil arm, respectively. The updated Kaplan-Meier curve for PFS is shown in Figure 4.

The investigator-assessed ORR was 91.2% in the IMBRUVICA arm versus 36.8% in the chlorambucilarm. The CR rate according to IWCLL criteria was 16.2% in the IMBRUVICA arm versus 3.0% in thechlorambucil arm. At the time of long-term follow-up, a total of 73 subjects (54.9%) originallyrandomised to the chlorambucil arm subsequently received ibrutinib as cross-over treatment. The

Kaplan-Meier landmark estimate for OS at 48-months was 85.5% in the IMBRUVICA arm.

The treatment effect of ibrutinib in Study PCYC-1115-CA was consistent across high-risk patientswith del17p/TP53 mutation, del11q, and/or unmutated IGHV.

Combination therapy

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in patients with previously untreated CLL/SLL were furtherevaluated in a randomised, multi-center, open-label, phase 3 study (PCYC-1130-CA) of IMBRUVICAin combination with obinutuzumab versus chlorambucil in combination with obinutuzumab. The studyenrolled patients who were 65 years of age or older or <65 years of age with coexisting medicalconditions, reduced renal function as measured by creatinine clearance <70 mL/min, or presence ofdel17p/TP53 mutation. Patients (n=229) were randomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA 420 mgdaily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity or chlorambucil at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg on

Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle for 6 cycles. In both arms, patients received 1 000 mg ofobinutuzumab on Days 1, 8 and 15 of the first cycle, followed by treatment on the first day of5 subsequent cycles (total of 6 cycles, 28 days each). The first dose of obinutuzumab was dividedbetween day 1 (100 mg) and day 2 (900 mg).

The median age was 71 years (range, 40 to 87 years), 64% were male, and 96% were Caucasian. Allpatients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 (48%) or 1-2 (52%). At baseline, 52% hadadvanced clinical stage (Rai Stage III or IV), 32% of patients had bulky disease (≥5 cm), 44% withbaseline anaemia, 22% with baseline thrombocytopenia, 28% had a CrCL <60 mL/min, and themedian Cumulative Illness Rating Score for Geriatrics (CIRS-G) was 4 (range, 0 to 12). At baseline,65% of patients presented with CLL/SLL with high risk factors (del17p/TP53 mutation [18%], del11q[15%], or unmutated IGHV [54%]).

Progression-free survival (PFS) was assessed by IRC according to IWCLL criteria indicated a 77%statistically significant reduction in the risk of death or progression in the IMBRUVICA arm. With amedian follow-up time on study of 31 months, the median PFS was not reached in the

IMBRUVICA+obinutuzumab arm and was 19 months in the chlorambucil+obinutuzumab arm.

IMBRUVICA+obinutuzumab and 9% of patients treated with chlorambucil+obinutuzumab.

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in patients with previously untreated CLL or SLL werefurther evaluated in a randomised, multi-center, open-label, phase 3 study (E1912) of IMBRUVICA incombination with rituximab (IR) versus standard fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR)chemo-immunotherapy. The study enrolled previously untreated patients with CLL or SLL who were70 years or younger. Patients with del17p were excluded from the study. Patients (n=529) wererandomised 2:1 to receive either IR or FCR. IMBRUVICA was administered at a dose of 420 mg dailyuntil disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Fludarabine was administered at a dose of25 mg/m2, and cyclophosphamide was administered at a dose of 250 mg/m2, both on Days 1, 2, and 3of Cycles 1-6. Rituximab was initiated in Cycle 2 for the IR arm and in Cycle 1 for the FCR arm andwas administered at a dose of 50 mg/m2 on Day 1 of the first cycle, 325 mg/m2 on Day 2 of the firstcycle, and 500 mg/m2 on Day 1 of 5 subsequent cycles, for a total of 6 cycles. Each cycle was 28 days.

The median age was 58 years (range, 28 to 70 years), 67% were male, and 90% were Caucasian. Allpatients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 (98%) or 2 (2%). At baseline, 43% ofpatients presented with Rai Stage III or IV, and 59% of patients presented with CLL/SLL with highrisk factors (TP53 mutation [6%], del11q [22%], or unmutated IGHV [53%]).

With a median follow-up time on study of 37 months, efficacy results for E1912 are shown in Table 7.

Fixed duration combination therapy

The safety and efficacy of fixed duration therapy with IMBRUVICA in combination with venetoclaxversus chlorambucil in combination with obinutuzumab in patients with previously untreated CLLwere evaluated in a randomised, open-label, phase 3 (CLL3011) study. The study enrolled patientswith previously untreated CLL who were 65 years or older, and adult patients <65 years of age with a

CIRS score >6 or CrCL ≥30 to <70 mL/min. Patients with del 17p or known TP53 mutations wereexcluded. Patients (n=211) were randomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA in combination withvenetoclax or chlorambucil in combination with obinutuzumab. Patients in the IMBRUVICA plusvenetoclax arm received single agent IMBRUVICA for 3 cycles followed by IMBRUVICA incombination with venetoclax for 12 cycles (including 5-week dose-titration schedule). Each cycle was28 days. IMBRUVICA was administered at a dose of 420 mg daily. Venetoclax was administereddaily, starting with 20 mg for 1 week, followed by 1 week at each dose level of 50 mg, 100 mg, and200 mg, then the recommended daily dose of 400 mg. Patients randomised to the chlorambucil plusobinutuzumab arm received treatment for 6 cycles. Obinutuzumab was administered at a dose of1 000 mg on Days 1, 8 and 15 in Cycle 1. In Cycles 2 to 6, 1 000 mg obinutuzumab was given on

Day 1. Chlorambucil was administered at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg body weight on Days 1 and 15 of

Cycles 1 to 6. Patients with confirmed progression by IWCLL criteria after completion of either fixedduration regimen could be treated with single-agent IMBRUVICA.

The median age was 71 years (range, 47 to 93 years), 58% were male, and 96% were Caucasian. Allpatients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 (35%), 1 (53%), or 2 (12%). At baseline, 18%of patients presented with CLL with del 11q and 52% with unmutated IGHV.

At baseline assessment for risk of tumor lysis syndrome, 25% of patients had high tumor burden. After3 cycles of single-agent IMBRUVICA lead-in therapy, 2% of patients had high tumor burden. Hightumor burden was defined as any lymph node ≥10 cm; or any lymph node ≥5 cm and absolutelymphocyte count ≥25×109/L.

With a median follow-up time on study of 28 months, efficacy results for Study CLL3011 assessed byan IRC according to IWCLL criteria are shown in Table 9, the Kaplan-Meier curve for PFS is shownin Figure 8, and rates of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity are shown in Table 10.

Twelve months after the completion of treatment, MRD negativity rates in peripheral blood were49.1% (52/106) by NGS assay and 54.7% (58/106) by flow cytometry in patients treated with

IMBRUVICA plus venetoclax and, at the corresponding time point, was 12.4% (13/105) by NGSassay and 16.2% (17/105) by flow cytometry in patients treated with chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab.

TLS was reported in 6 patients treated with chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab and no TLS was reportedin IMBRUVICA in combination with venetoclax.

Overall follow-up of 58 months (median of 52 months)

With an overall follow-up of 58 months (median follow-up time on study of 52 months) in Study

CLL3011, a 77% reduction in the risk of death or progression by investigator assessment wasobserved for patients in the IMBRUVICA arm. The overall survival hazard ratio was 0.458 [95% CI(0.257, 0.818), nominal p=0.0068, not type 1 error controlled]. There were 17 (16.0%) deaths in the

IMBRUVICA plus venetoclax arm and 36 (34.3%) in the chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab arm.

Median time to next treatment was not reached for either arm (HR=0.164; 95% CI: 0.081, 0.330) with9.4% of subjects in the IMBRUVICA plus venetoclax arm and 41.0% of subjects in the chlorambucilplus obinutuzumab arm having initiated subsequent anticancer therapy.

The safety and efficacy of fixed duration therapy with IMBRUVICA in combination with venetoclaxin patients with previously untreated CLL were further evaluated in a cohort of the phase 2,multi-center, 2-cohort study (PCYC-1142-CA). The study enrolled previously untreated patients with

CLL who were 70 years or younger. The study enrolled 323 patients, of these, 159 patients wereenrolled to fixed duration therapy consisting of 3 cycles of single agent IMBRUVICA followed by

IMBRUVICA in combination with venetoclax for 12 cycles (including 5-week dose titrationschedule). Each cycle was 28 days. IMBRUVICA was administered at a dose of 420 mg daily.

Venetoclax was administered daily, starting with 20 mg for 1 week, followed by 1 week at each doselevel of 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg, then the recommended daily dose of 400 mg. Patients withconfirmed progression by IWCLL criteria after completion of the fixed duration regimen could beretreated with single-agent IMBRUVICA.

The median age was 60 years (range, 33 to 71 years), 67% were male, and 92% were Caucasian. Allpatients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 (69%) or 1 (31%). At baseline, 13% of patientshad del 17p, 18% with del 11q, 17% with del 17p/TP53 mutation, 56% with unmutated IGHV and19% with complex karyotype. At baseline assessment for risk of tumor lysis syndrome, 21% ofpatients had high tumor burden.

After 3 cycles of single-agent IMBRUVICA lead-in therapy, 1% of patients had high tumor burden.

High tumor burden was defined as any lymph node ≥10 cm, or any lymph node ≥5 cm and absolutelymphocyte count ≥25×109/L.

With a median follow-up time on study of 28 months, efficacy results for PCYC-1142-CA assessed byan IRC according to IWCLL criteria are shown in Table 11, and rates of minimal residual disease(MRD) negativity are shown in Table 12.

Patients with CLL who received at least one prior therapy

Single agent

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in patients with CLL were demonstrated in one uncontrolledstudy and one randomised, controlled study. The open-label, multi-center study (PCYC-1102-CA)included 51 patients with relapsed or refractory CLL, who received 420 mg once daily. IMBRUVICAwas administered until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median age was 68 years(range: 37 to 82 years), median time since diagnosis was 80 months, and median number of priortreatments was 4 (range: 1 to 12 treatments), including 92.2% with a prior nucleoside analog, 98.0%with prior rituximab, 86.3% with a prior alkylator, 39.2% with prior bendamustine and 19.6% withprior ofatumumab. At baseline, 39.2% of patients had Rai Stage IV, 45.1% had bulky disease (≥5 cm),35.3% had deletion 17p and 31.4% had deletion 11q.

ORR was assessed according to the 2008 IWCLL criteria by investigators and IRC. At a medianduration follow-up of 16.4 months, the ORR by IRC for the 51 relapsed or refractory patients was64.7% (95% CI: 50.1%; 77.6%), all PRs. The ORR including PR with lymphocytosis was 70.6%.

Median time to response was 1.9 months. The DOR ranged from 3.9 to 24.2+ months. The median

DOR was not reached.

A randomised, multi-center, open-label phase 3 study of IMBRUVICA versus ofatumumab(PCYC-1112-CA) was conducted in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL. Patients (n=391) wererandomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA 420 mg daily until disease progression or unacceptabletoxicity, or ofatumumab for up to 12 doses (300/2 000 mg). Fifty-seven patients randomised toofatumumab crossed over following progression to receive IMBRUVICA. The median age was67 years (range: 30 to 88 years), 68% were male, and 90% were Caucasian. All patients had a baseline

ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. The median time since diagnosis was 91 months and the mediannumber of prior treatments was 2 (range: 1 to 13 treatments). At baseline, 58% of patients had at leastone tumour ≥5 cm. Thirty-two percent of patients had deletion 17p (with 50% of patients havingdeletion 17p/TP53 mutation), 24% had 11q deletion, and 47% of patients had unmutated IGHV.

Progression free survival (PFS) as assessed by an IRC according to IWCLL criteria indicated a 78%statistically significant reduction in the risk of death or progression for patients in the IMBRUVICAarm. Analysis of OS demonstrated a 57% statistically significant reduction in the risk of death forpatients in the IMBRUVICA arm. Efficacy results for Study PCYC-1112-CA are shown in Table 13.

Final Analysis at 65-month follow-up

With a median follow-up time on study of 65 months in Study PCYC-1112-CA, an 85% reduction inthe risk of death or progression by investigator assessment was observed for patients in the

IMBRUVICA arm. The median investigator-assessed PFS according to IWCLL criteria was44.1 months [95% CI (38.47, 56.18)] in the IMBRUVICA arm and 8.1 months [95% CI (7.79, 8.25)]in the ofatumumab arm, respectively; HR=0.15 [95% CI (0.11, 0.20)]. The updated Kaplan-Meiercurve for PFS is shown in Figure 11. The investigator-assessed ORR in the IMBRUVICA arm was87.7% versus 22.4% in the ofatumumab arm. At the time of final analysis, 133 (67.9%) of the196 subjects originally randomised to the ofatumumab treatment arm had crossed over to ibrutinibtreatment. The median investigator-assessed PFS2 (time from randomisation until PFS event after firstsubsequent anti-neoplastic therapy) according to IWCLL criteria was 65.4 months [95% CI (51.61, notestimable)] in the IMBRUVICA arm and 38.5 months [95% CI (19.98, 47.24)] in the ofatumumabarm, respectively; HR=0.54 [95% CI (0.41, 0.71)]. The median OS was 67.7 months [95% CI (61.0,not estimable)] in the IMBRUVICA arm.

The treatment effect of ibrutinib in Study PCYC-1112-CA was consistent across high-risk patientswith deletion 17p/TP53 mutation, deletion 11q, and/or unmutated IGHV.

Combination therapy

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in patients previously treated for CLL were further evaluatedin a randomised, multicenter, double-blinded phase 3 study of IMBRUVICA in combination with BRversus placebo+BR (Study CLL3001). Patients (n=578) were randomised 1:1 to receive either

IMBRUVICA 420 mg daily or placebo in combination with BR until disease progression, orunacceptable toxicity. All patients received BR for a maximum of six 28-day cycles. Bendamustinewas dosed at 70 mg/m2 infused IV over 30 minutes on Cycle 1, Days 2 and 3, and on Cycles 2-6,

Days 1 and 2 for up to 6 cycles. Rituximab was administered at a dose of 375 mg/m2 in the first cycle,

Day 1, and 500 mg/m2 Cycles 2 through 6, Day 1. Ninety patients randomised to placebo+BR crossedover to receive IMBRUVICA following IRC confirmed progression. The median age was 64 years(range, 31 to 86 years), 66% were male, and 91% were Caucasian. All patients had a baseline ECOGperformance status of 0 or 1. The median time since diagnosis was 6 years and the median number ofprior treatments was 2 (range, 1 to 11 treatments). At baseline, 56% of patients had at least one tumour≥5 cm, 26% had del11q.

Progression free survival (PFS) was assessed by IRC according to IWCLL criteria. Efficacy results for

Study CLL3001 are shown in Table 15.

WM

Single agent

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in WM (IgM-excreting lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma) wereevaluated in an open-label, multi-center, single-arm trial of 63 previously treated patients. The medianage was 63 years (range: 44 to 86 years), 76% were male, and 95% were Caucasian. All patients had abaseline ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. The median time since diagnosis was 74 months, and themedian number of prior treatments was 2 (range: 1 to 11 treatments). At baseline, the median serum

IgM value was 3.5 g/dL, and 60% of patients were anaemic (haemoglobin ≤11 g/dL or 6.8 mmol/L).

IMBRUVICA was administered orally at 420 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptabletoxicity. The primary endpoint in this study was ORR per investigator assessment. The ORR and DORwere assessed using criteria adopted from the Third International Workshop of WM. Responses to

IMBRUVICA are shown in Table 16.

Efficacy results were also assessed by an IRC demonstrating an ORR of 83%, with a 11% VGPR rateand a 51% PR rate.

Combination therapy

The safety and efficacy of IMBRUVICA in WM were further evaluated in patients with treatment-naïve or previously treated WM in a randomised, multicenter, double-blinded phase 3 study of

IMBRUVICA in combination with rituximab versus placebo in combination with rituximab(PCYC-1127-CA). Patients (n=150) were randomised 1:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA 420 mgdaily or placebo in combination with rituximab until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Rituximab was administered weekly at a dose of 375 mg/m2 for 4 consecutive weeks (weeks 1-4)followed by a second course of weekly rituximab for 4 consecutive weeks (weeks 17-20).

The median age was 69 years (range, 36 to 89 years), 66% were male, and 79% were Caucasian.

Ninety-three percent of patients had a baseline ECOG performance status of 0 or 1, and 7% of patientshad a baseline ECOG performance status of 2. Forty-five percent of patients were treatment-naïve, and55% of patients were previously treated. The median time since diagnosis was 52.6 months (treatment-naïve patients=6.5 months and previously treated patients=94.3 months). Among previously treatedpatients, the median number of prior treatments was 2 (range, 1 to 6 treatments). At baseline, themedian serum IgM value was 3.2 g/dL (range, 0.6 to 8.3 g/dL), 63% of patients were anaemic(haemoglobin ≤11 g/dL or 6.8 mmol/L) and MYD88 L265P mutations were present in 77% ofpatients, absent in 13% of patients, and 9% of patients were not evaluable for mutation status.

At the primary analysis, with a median follow-up of 26.5 months, the IRC-assessed PFS hazard ratiowas 0.20 [95% CI (0.11, 0.38)]. PFS hazard ratios for treatment-naïve patients, previously treatedpatients, and patients with or without MYD88 L265P mutations were consistent with the PFS hazardratio for the ITT population.

Grade 3 or 4 infusion-related reactions were observed in 1% of patients treated with

IMBRUVICA+rituximab and 16% of patients treated with placebo+rituximab.

Tumor flare in the form of IgM increase occurred in 8.0% of subjects in the IMBRUVICA+rituximabarm and 46.7% of subjects in the placebo+rituximab arm.

Final Analysis at 63-month follow-up

With an overall follow-up of 63 months, efficacy results as assessed by an IRC at the time of the finalanalysis for PCYC-1127-CA are shown in Table 17 and the Kaplan-Meier curve for PFS is shown in

Figure 12. PFS hazard ratios for treatment-naïve patients (0.31 [95% CI (0.14, 0.69)]) and previouslytreated patients (0.22 [95% CI (0.11, 0.43)]) were consistent with the PFS hazard ratio for the ITTpopulation.

Analysis)

Study PCYC-1127-CA had a separate monotherapy arm of 31 patients with previously treated WMwho failed prior rituximab-containing therapy and received single agent IMBRUVICA. The medianage was 67 years (range, 47 to 90 years). Eighty-one percent of patients had a baseline ECOGperformance status of 0 or 1, and 19% had a baseline ECOG performance status of 2. The mediannumber of prior treatments was 4 (range, 1 to 7 treatments). With an overall follow-up of 61 months,the response rate observed in Study PCYC-1127-CA monotherapy arm per IRC assessment was 77%(0% CR, 29% VGPR, 48% PR). The median duration of response was 33 months (range, 2.4 to 60.2+months). The overall response rate per IRC observed in the monotherapy arm was 87% (0% CR, 29%

VGPR, 48% PR, 10% MR). The median duration of overall response was 39 months (range, 2.07 to60.2+ months).

Paediatric population

The safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of IMBRUVICA in paediatric and young adult patientswith relapsed or refractory mature B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma were evaluated in a two-part, multi-centre, open-label Phase 3 study (LYM3003) of IMBRUVICA in combination with either a rituximab,ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide and dexamethasone (RICE) regimen or a rituximab, vincristine,ifosfamide, carboplatin, idarubicin, and dexamethasone (RVICI) regimen, as background therapy.

Part 1 of the study (21 patients aged 3 to 17 years) evaluated the dose to be used in part 2 (51 patientsaged 3 to 19 years) (see section 5.2).

In part 2, patients were randomised 2:1 to receive either IMBRUVICA as 440 mg/m2 daily (agebelow 12 years) or 329 mg/m2 (age 12 years and older) with background therapy, or backgroundtherapy alone until completion of 3 cycles of therapy, transplantation, disease progression orunacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint of event-free survival (EFS) superiority was not metsuggesting no additional benefit from adding ibrutinib to RICE or RVICI (see section 4.2).

5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties

Absorption

Ibrutinib is rapidly absorbed after oral administration with a median Tmax of 1 to 2 hours. Absolutebioavailability in fasted condition (n=8) was 2.9% (90% CI=2.1 - 3.9) and doubled when combinedwith a meal. Pharmacokinetics of ibrutinib does not significantly differ in patients with different B-cellmalignancies. Ibrutinib exposure increases with doses up to 840 mg. The steady state AUC observedin patients at 560 mg is (mean ± standard deviation) 953 ± 705 ng h/mL. Administration of ibrutinib infasted condition resulted in approximately 60% of exposure (AUClast) as compared to either30 minutes before, 30 minutes after (fed condition) or 2 hours after a high fat breakfast.

Ibrutinib has a pH dependent solubility, with lower solubility at higher pH. In fasted healthy subjectsadministered a single 560 mg dose of ibrutinib after taking omeprazole at 40 mg once daily for 5 days,compared to ibrutinib alone, geometric mean ratios (90% CI) were 83% (68-102%), 92% (78-110%),and 38% (26-53%) for AUC0-24, AUClast, and Cmax, respectively.

Distribution

Reversible binding of ibrutinib to human plasma protein in vitro was 97.3% with no concentrationdependence in the range of 50 to 1 000 ng/mL. The apparent volume of distribution at steady state(Vd, ss/F) was approximately 10 000 L.

Metabolism

Ibrutinib is metabolised primarily by CYP3A4 to produce a dihydrodiol metabolite with an inhibitoryactivity towards BTK approximately 15 times lower than that of ibrutinib. Involvement of CYP2D6 inthe metabolism of ibrutinib appears to be minimal.

Therefore, no precautions are necessary in patients with different CYP2D6 genotypes.

Elimination

Apparent clearance (CL/F) is approximately 1 000 L/h. The half-life of ibrutinib is 4 to 13 hours.

After a single oral administration of radiolabeled [14C]-ibrutinib in healthy subjects, approximately90% of radioactivity was excreted within 168 hours, with the majority (80%) excreted in the faecesand <10% accounted for in urine. Unchanged ibrutinib accounted for approximately 1% of theradiolabeled excretion product in faeces and none in urine.

Special populations
Elderly

Population pharmacokinetics indicated that age does not significantly influence ibrutinib clearancefrom the circulation.

Paediatric population

Pharmacokinetic data show that ibrutinib exposures in children with relapsed or refractory mature B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, aged 12 years and older receiving a daily dose of 329 mg/m2 and thoseaged 3 years to below 12 years receiving a daily dose of 440 mg/m2, were generally within the rangeof exposures observed in adult patients administered a daily dose of 560 mg.

Gender

Population pharmacokinetics data indicated that gender does not significantly influence ibrutinibclearance from the circulation.

Race

There are insufficient data to evaluate the potential effect of race on ibrutinib pharmacokinetics.

Body weight

Population pharmacokinetics data indicated that body weight (range: 41-146 kg; mean [SD]:83 [19 kg]) had a negligible effect on ibrutinib clearance.

Renal impairment

Ibrutinib has minimal renal clearance; urinary excretion of metabolites is <10% of the dose. Nospecific studies have been conducted to date in subjects with impaired renal function. There are nodata in patients with severe renal impairment or patients on dialysis (see section 4.2).

Hepatic impairment

Ibrutinib is metabolised in the liver. A hepatic impairment trial was performed in non-cancer subjectsadministered a single dose of 140 mg of medicinal product under fasting conditions. The effect ofimpaired liver function varied substantially between individuals, but on average a 2.7-, 8.2-, and9.8-fold increase in ibrutinib exposure (AUClast) was observed in subjects with mild (n=6, Child-Pughclass A), moderate (n=10, Child-Pugh class B) and severe (n=8, Child-Pugh class C) hepaticimpairment, respectively. The free fraction of ibrutinib also increased with degree of impairment, with3.0, 3.8 and 4.8% in subjects with mild, moderate and severe liver impairment, respectively, comparedto 3.3% in plasma from matched healthy controls within this study. The corresponding increase inunbound ibrutinib exposure (AUCunbound, last) is estimated to be 4.1-, 9.8-, and 13-fold in subjects withmild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment, respectively (see section 4.2).

Co-administration with transport substrates/inhibitors

In vitro studies indicated that ibrutinib is not a substrate of P-gp, nor other major transporters, except

OCT2. The dihydrodiol metabolite and other metabolites are P-gp substrates. Ibrutinib is an in vitroinhibitor of P-gp and BCRP (see section 4.5).

5.3 Preclinical safety data

The following adverse effects were seen in studies of 13-weeks duration in rats and dogs. Ibrutinibwas found to induce gastrointestinal effects (soft faeces/diarrhoea and/or inflammation) and lymphoiddepletion in rats and dogs with a No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) of 30 mg/kg/day inboth species. Based on mean exposure (AUC) at the 560 mg/day clinical dose, AUC ratios were2.6 and 21 at the NOAEL in male and female rats, and 0.4 and 1.8 at the NOAEL in male and femaledogs, respectively. Lowest Observed Effect Level (LOEL) (60 mg/kg/day) margins in the dog are3.6-fold (males) and 2.3-fold (females). In rats, moderate pancreatic acinar cell atrophy (consideredadverse) was observed at doses of ≥100 mg/kg in male rats (AUC exposure margin of 2.6-fold) andnot observed in females at doses up to 300 mg/kg/day (AUC exposure margin of 21.3-fold). Mildlydecreased trabecular and cortical bone was seen in female rats administered ≥100 mg/kg/day (AUCexposure margin of 20.3-fold). All gastrointestinal, lymphoid and bone findings recovered followingrecovery periods of 6-13 weeks. Pancreatic findings partially recovered during comparable reversalperiods.

Juvenile toxicity studies have not been conducted.

Carcinogenicity/genotoxicity

Ibrutinib was not carcinogenic in a 6-month study in the transgenic (Tg.rasH2) mouse at oral doses upto 2 000 mg/kg/day with an exposure margin of approximately 23 (males) to 37 (females) times thehuman AUC of ibrutinib at a dose of 560 mg daily.

Ibrutinib has no genotoxic properties when tested in bacteria, mammalian cells or in mice.

Reproductive toxicity

In pregnant rats, ibrutinib at a dose of 80 mg/kg/day was associated with increased post-implantationloss and increased visceral (heart and major vessels) malformations and skeletal variations with anexposure margin 14 times the AUC found in patients at a daily dose of 560 mg. At a dose of≥40 mg/kg/day, ibrutinib was associated with decreased foetal weights (AUC ratio of ≥5.6 ascompared to daily dose of 560 mg in patients). Consequently the foetal NOAEL was 10 mg/kg/day(approximately 1.3 times the AUC of ibrutinib at a dose of 560 mg daily) (see section 4.6).

In pregnant rabbits, ibrutinib at a dose of 15 mg/kg/day or greater was associated with skeletalmalformations (fused sternebrae) and ibrutinib at a dose of 45 mg/kg/day was associated withincreased post-implantation loss. Ibrutinib caused malformations in rabbits at a dose of 15 mg/kg/day(approximately 2.0 times the exposure (AUC) in patients with MCL administered ibrutinib 560 mgdaily and 2.8 times the exposure in patients with CLL or WM receiving ibrutinib dose 420 mg perday). Consequently the foetal NOAEL was 5 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.7 times the AUC ofibrutinib at a dose of 560 mg daily) (see section 4.6).

Fertility

No effects on fertility or reproductive capacities were observed in male or female rats up to themaximum dose tested, 100 mg/kg/day (HED 16 mg/kg/day).
