1.1 Mantle Cell Lymphoma

JAYPIRCA® is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) after at least two lines of systemic therapy, including a BTK inhibitor.

This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on response rate [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial.

1.2 Relapsed or Refractory Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

JAYPIRCA is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) who have previously been treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor.

1.3 Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma without 17p deletion

JAYPIRCA is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) with no known 17p deletion.

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

The recommended dosage of JAYPIRCA is 200 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Advise patients of the following:

  • Swallow tablets whole with water. Do not cut, crush, or chew tablets.
  • Take JAYPIRCA at the same time each day. JAYPIRCA may be taken with or without food [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
  • If a dose of JAYPIRCA is missed by more than 12 hours, do not make up the dose and take the next dose as scheduled.

2.2 Dosage Modifications for Adverse Reactions

Recommended dosage modifications of JAYPIRCA for adverse reactions are presented in Table 1 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4)].

Table 1: Recommended Dosage Modification of JAYPIRCA for Adverse Reactions

Dose modification is not recommended for asymptomatic lymphocytosis. Asymptomatic lipase increase may not necessarily warrant dose modification.

2.3 Dosage Modifications for Patients with Severe Renal Impairment

For patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR 15-29 mL/min), reduce the JAYPIRCA dose to 100 mg once daily if the current dose is 200 mg once daily otherwise reduce the dose by 50 mg. If the current dosage is 50 mg once daily, discontinue JAYPIRCA [see Use in Specific Populations (8.6), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. No dosage adjustment of JAYPIRCA is recommended in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30-89 mL/min).

2.4 Dosage Modifications for Concomitant Use with Strong CYP3A Inhibitors

Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inhibitors with JAYPIRCA [see Drug Interactions (7.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. If concomitant use of a strong CYP3A inhibitor is unavoidable, reduce the JAYPIRCA dose by 50 mg. If the current dosage is 50 mg once daily, interrupt JAYPIRCA treatment for the duration of strong CYP3A inhibitor use. After discontinuation of a strong CYP3A inhibitor for 5 half-lives, resume the JAYPIRCA dose that was taken prior to initiating the strong CYP3A inhibitor.

2.5 Dosage Modifications for Concomitant Use with CYP3A Inducers

Avoid concomitant use of strong or moderate CYP3A inducers with JAYPIRCA [see Drug Interactions (7.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. If concomitant use with moderate CYP3A inducers is unavoidable and the current dosage of JAYPIRCA is 200 mg once daily, increase the dose to 300 mg.

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

5.1 Infections

Fatal and serious infections (including bacterial, viral, or fungal infections) and opportunistic infections have occurred in patients treated with JAYPIRCA. Across all clinical trials, Grade 3 or higher infections occurred in 23% of 1153 patients, most commonly pneumonia (13%), with fatal infections occurring in 4.3% of patients. Sepsis occurred in 4.8% of patients and febrile neutropenia in 3.3%. In patients with CLL/SLL, Grade 3 or higher infections occurred in 24% of patients, with fatal infections occurring in 5%. Opportunistic infections after treatment with JAYPIRCA have included, but are not limited to, Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia and fungal infection [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Consider prophylaxis, including vaccinations and antimicrobial prophylaxis, in patients who are at increased risk for infections, including opportunistic infections. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection, evaluate promptly, and treat appropriately. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue JAYPIRCA [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

5.2 Hemorrhage

Fatal and serious hemorrhage has occurred with JAYPIRCA. Major hemorrhage (defined as Grade 3 or higher bleeding or any central nervous system bleeding) occurred in 3.1% of 1153 patients treated with JAYPIRCA across all clinical trials, including gastrointestinal hemorrhage; fatal hemorrhage occurred in 0.3% of patients. Bleeding of any grade, excluding bruising and petechiae, occurred in 18% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Major hemorrhage occurred in 1.8% of patients taking JAYPIRCA without antithrombotic agents and 1.3% of patients taking JAYPIRCA with antithrombotic agents. Consider the risks and benefits of antithrombotic agents when co-administered with JAYPIRCA. Monitor patients for signs of bleeding. Based on severity of bleeding, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue JAYPIRCA [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

Consider the benefit-risk of withholding JAYPIRCA for 3 to 7 days pre- and post-surgery depending upon the type of surgery and risk of bleeding.

5.3 Cytopenias

JAYPIRCA can cause cytopenias, including neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia.

Across all clinical trials, Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias, including decreased neutrophils (26%), decreased platelets (9%), and decreased hemoglobin (9%) developed in patients treated with JAYPIRCA. Grade 4 decreased neutrophils developed in 14% of patients and Grade 4 decreased platelets developed in 4.3% of patients [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].

Monitor complete blood counts regularly during treatment. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue JAYPIRCA [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

5.4 Cardiac Arrhythmias

Cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter, were reported in recipients of JAYPIRCA. Atrial fibrillation or flutter were reported in 3.1% of patients, with Grade 3 or 4 atrial fibrillation or flutter reported in 1.6% of 1153 patients across all clinical trials [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Other serious cardiac arrhythmias such as supraventricular tachycardia and cardiac arrest occurred in 0.3% of patients. Patients with cardiac risk factors, such as hypertension, or previous arrhythmias may be at increased risk.

Monitor for signs and symptoms of arrhythmias (e.g., palpitations, dizziness, syncope, dyspnea) and manage appropriately. Based on severity, reduce dose, temporarily withhold, or permanently discontinue JAYPIRCA [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)].

5.5 Second Primary Malignancies

Second primary malignancies, including non-skin carcinomas, developed in 10% of 1153 patients treated with JAYPIRCA monotherapy across all clinical trials. The most frequent malignancy was non-melanoma skin cancer, reported in 4.9% of 1153 patients. Other second primary malignancies included solid tumors (including genitourinary and breast cancers) and melanoma. Advise patients to use sun protection and monitor patients for the development of second primary malignancies.

5.6 Hepatotoxicity, Including Drug-Induced Liver Injury

Hepatotoxicity, including severe, life-threatening, and potentially fatal cases of drug-induced liver injury (DILI), has occurred in patients treated with Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including JAYPIRCA.

Evaluate bilirubin and transaminases at baseline and throughout treatment with JAYPIRCA. For patients who develop abnormal liver tests after JAYPIRCA, monitor more frequently for liver test abnormalities and clinical signs and symptoms of hepatic toxicity. If DILI is suspected, withhold JAYPIRCA. Upon confirmation of DILI, discontinue JAYPIRCA.

5.7 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity

Based on findings in animals, JAYPIRCA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. In animal reproduction studies, administration of pirtobrutinib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused embryo-fetal toxicity including embryo-fetal mortality and malformations at maternal exposures (AUC) approximately 3-times the recommended dose of 200 mg once daily. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with JAYPIRCA and for one week after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)].

6.1 Clinical Trials Experience

Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in the general patient population.

The data in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS reflect exposure to JAYPIRCA as a single-agent, administered at 200 mg once daily in 1153 patients with hematologic malignancies in the four clinical studies. Among these 1153 patients, the median duration of exposure was 18 months; 76% were exposed for at least 6 months and 66% were exposed for at least one year.

In this pooled safety population, the most common (≥ 30%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were decreased neutrophil count (56%) and decreased hemoglobin (38%).

Mantle Cell Lymphoma

BRUIN

The safety of JAYPIRCA was evaluated in the BRUIN trial, an open-label, multicohort, single-arm study in patients with previously treated MCL who received a prior BTK inhibitor [see Clinical Studies (14.1 )]. The trial required a platelet count ≥ 50 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 x 109/L, hepatic transaminases ≤ 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN), and an ECOG performance status of 0 to 2. The trial excluded patients with active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma, significant cardiovascular disease, major bleeding or grade ≥ 3 arrhythmia with a prior BTK inhibitor, prolonged QTc interval, or need for a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer or strong P-gp inhibitor.

Patients received JAYPIRCA 200 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (n = 128); 36% were exposed for 6 months or longer and 10% were exposed for at least one year. The median number of prior therapies was 3 (range: 1-9). The median age was 71 years (range: 46 to 88 years) and 80% of patients were male. Race was reported for all patients; 78% were White, 14% were Asian, 2.3% were Black, and 2.3% were Hispanic or Latino.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 38% of patients who received JAYPIRCA. Serious adverse reactions that occurred in ≥ 2% of patients were pneumonia (14%), COVID-19 (4.7%), musculoskeletal pain (3.9%), hemorrhage (2.3%), pleural effusion (2.3%), and sepsis (2.3%). Fatal adverse reactions within 28 days of the last dose of JAYPIRCA occurred in 7% of patients, most commonly due to infections (4.7%) including COVID-19 (3.1% of all patients).

Adverse reactions led to dose reductions in 4.7%, treatment interruption in 32%, and permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in 9%. Adverse reactions that resulted in dosage modification in > 5% of patients included pneumonia and neutropenia. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included pneumonia.

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 15%), excluding laboratory terms, were fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, diarrhea, edema, dyspnea, pneumonia, and bruising.

Patients received JAYPIRCA 200 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity (N = 110); 60% were exposed for at least 1 year and 14% were exposed for at least two years. The median age was 68 years (range: 41 to 88 years) and 67% of patients were male. Race was reported in 110 (100%) patients; of these patients, 89% were White, 4.5% were Black, 1.8% were Asian, and 1.8% were Hispanic or Latino. The median number of prior therapies was 5 (range: 1-11).

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 56% of patients who received JAYPIRCA. Serious adverse reactions that occurred in ≥ 5% of patients were pneumonia (18%), COVID-19 (9%), sepsis (7%), and febrile neutropenia (7%). Fatal adverse reactions within 28 days of the last dose of JAYPIRCA occurred in 11% of patients, most commonly due to infections (10%), including sepsis (5%) and COVID-19 (2.7%).

Adverse reactions led to dose reductions in 3.6%, treatment interruption in 42%, and permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in 9%. Adverse reactions which resulted in dose reductions of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included neutropenia. Adverse reactions which resulted in treatment interruptions of JAYPIRCA in > 5% of patients included pneumonia, neutropenia, febrile neutropenia, and COVID-19. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included second primary malignancy, COVID-19, and sepsis.

**Lymphocytosis: Upon initiation of JAYPIRCA, a temporary increase in lymphocyte counts (defined as absolute lymphocyte count increased ≥ 50% from baseline and a post-baseline value ≥ 5,000/μL) occurred in 64% of CLL/SLL patients in BRUIN. The median time to onset of lymphocytosis was 1.1 weeks, with 75% of cases occurring within 1.1 weeks, and the median duration was 19 weeks.

BRUIN CLL-321

The safety of JAYPIRCA was evaluated in BRUIN CLL-321, a randomized, multicenter, open-label active control trial [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. The trial enrolled patients with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL who were previously treated with a covalent BTK inhibitor. The trial required a platelet count ≥ 50 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 x 109/L, and an estimated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min. The trial excluded patients with significant cardiovascular disease including uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, or major bleeding on a prior covalent BTK inhibitor.

The trial enrolled 238 patients who were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive JAYPIRCA given orally once daily at a dose of 200 mg until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity or investigator's choice of either idelalisib in combination with a rituximab product or bendamustine in combination with a rituximab product [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. One hundred sixteen patients received JAYPIRCA and 109 patients received investigator's choice of idelalisib and rituximab or bendamustine and rituximab.

The median duration of treatment with JAYPIRCA was 15 months with 78% on treatment for greater than 6 months and 66% for greater than 12 months.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 47% of patients who received JAYPIRCA. Serious adverse reactions that occurred in ≥ 3% of patients were pneumonia (21%), COVID-19 (5%), and sepsis (3.4%). Fatal adverse reactions within 30 days of the last dose of JAYPIRCA occurred in 8% of patients, most commonly due to infections (7%), COVID-19 (5%) and pneumonia (3.4%).

Adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in 17% of patients, dose reductions in 10%, and treatment interruption in 51%. Adverse reactions which resulted in dose reductions of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included neutropenia. Adverse reactions which resulted in treatment interruptions of JAYPIRCA in > 5% of patients included pneumonia, neutropenia, hemorrhage and COVID-19. Adverse reactions which resulted in permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included pneumonia, COVID-19, neutropenia, anemia, and cardiac arrhythmias.

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%), excluding laboratory terms, were pneumonia and upper respiratory tract infections. Table 6 summarizes select adverse reactions for patients treated on BRUIN CLL-321.

BRUIN CLL-313

The safety of JAYPIRCA was evaluated in the BRUIN CLL-313 trial, a randomized, multicenter, open-label, active control trial [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. The trial enrolled patients with treatment naïve CLL/SLL without deletion of chromosome 17p13.1 (del 17p). The trial required a platelet count ≥ 75 × 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 × 109/L, and creatinine clearance ≥ 40 mL/min). The trial excluded patients with 17p deletion, significant cardiovascular disease including uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, active uncontrolled autoimmune cytopenias, or an active second malignancy.

The trial enrolled 282 patients who were randomized 1:1 to receive JAYPIRCA given orally once daily at a dose of 200 mg until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity or bendamustine in combination with a rituximab product (BR) for 6 cycles. One hundred forty patients received JAYPIRCA, and 132 patients received BR.

The median duration of treatment with JAYPIRCA was 32 months with 92% of patients on treatment for greater than 24 months.

Serious adverse reactions occurred in 28% of patients who received JAYPIRCA. Serious adverse reactions that occurred in ≥ 3% of patients included pneumonia (5%). Fatal adverse reactions within 30 days of the last dose of JAYPIRCA occurred in 1 (0.7%) patient, due to septic shock.

Adverse reactions led to permanent discontinuation of JAYPIRCA in 4.3% of patients, dose reductions in 3.6%, and treatment interruption in 35%. Adverse reactions which resulted in dose reductions of JAYPIRCA in > 1% of patients included pruritus. Adverse reactions which resulted in treatment interruptions of JAYPIRCA in > 5% of patients included COVID-19.

The most common adverse reactions (≥ 20%), excluding laboratory terms, were upper respiratory tract infections, rash, and COVID-19. Table 8 summarizes select adverse reactions for patients treated on BRUIN CLL-313.

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS

7.1 Effect of Other Drugs on JAYPIRCA

Strong CYP3A Inhibitors

Pirtobrutinib is a CYP3A substrate. Concomitant use of JAYPIRCA with a strong CYP3A inhibitor increased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)], which may increase the risk of JAYPIRCA adverse reactions. Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A inhibitors during treatment with JAYPIRCA. If concomitant use of strong CYP3A inhibitors is unavoidable, reduce the JAYPIRCA dosage [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)].

Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inducers

Concomitant use of JAYPIRCA with a strong or moderate CYP3A inducer decreased pirtobrutinib systemic exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)], which may reduce JAYPIRCA efficacy. Avoid concomitant use of JAYPIRCA with strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. If concomitant use of moderate CYP3A inducers is unavoidable, increase the JAYPIRCA dosage [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].

7.2 Effect of JAYPIRCA on Other Drugs

Sensitive CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP3A, P-gp, or BCRP Substrates

JAYPIRCA is a P-gp inhibitor, a moderate CYP2C8 and BCRP inhibitor, and a weak CYP2C19 and CYP3A inhibitor. Concomitant use of JAYPIRCA with sensitive P-gp, CYP2C8, BCRP, CYP2C19, or CYP3A substrates increased their plasma concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)], which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates for drugs which are sensitive to minimal concentration changes. Follow recommendations for sensitive CYP2C8, CYP2C19, CYP3A, P-gp, or BCRP substrates provided in their approved product labeling.

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

8.1 Pregnancy

Risk Summary

Based on findings from animal studies, JAYPIRCA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. There are no available data on JAYPIRCA use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk. In an animal reproduction study, administration of pirtobrutinib to pregnant rats during organogenesis resulted in adverse developmental outcomes, including structural abnormalities, altered fetal growth, and embryo-fetal mortality, at maternal exposures approximately 3-times those in patients at the recommended daily dose of 200 mg (see Data). Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.

The background risk in the U.S. general population of major birth defects is 2% to 4% and of miscarriage is 15% to 20% of clinically recognized pregnancies.

Data

Animal Data

In an embryo-fetal development study in rats, pregnant animals were administered oral doses of pirtobrutinib at up to 500 mg/kg twice daily during the period of organogenesis. Doses ≥ 375 mg/kg twice daily caused decreased fetal body weights and increased incidence of malformations and variations in the urinary tract (including absent or abnormal ureters and kidneys), reproductive tract (malpositioned ovaries and misshapen uterus), and bone (misshapen sternebrae). At 500 mg/kg twice daily, total resorption was observed. At 375 mg/kg twice daily in rats, the maternal systemic exposures (AUC) were approximately 3 times the human exposure at 200 mg once daily.

8.2 Lactation

Risk Summary

There are no data on the presence of pirtobrutinib in human milk or the effects on the breastfed child or milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed child, advise women not to breastfeed during treatment with JAYPIRCA and for one week after the last dose.

8.3 Females and Males of Reproductive Potential

Based on findings from animal studies, JAYPIRCA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)].

Pregnancy Testing

Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating JAYPIRCA.

Contraception

Females

Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with JAYPIRCA and for one week after the last dose.

8.4 Pediatric Use

Safety and effectiveness of JAYPIRCA have not been established in pediatric patients.

8.5 Geriatric Use

Of the patients with MCL who received the 200 mg dose of JAYPIRCA in BRUIN, 93 (78%) were 65 years of age and older and 39 (33%) were 75 years and older [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. Clinical studies of JAYPIRCA did not include sufficient numbers of patients with MCL who were less than 65 years of age to determine whether older patients respond differently from younger adult patients. Of the patients with CLL/SLL who received the 200 mg once daily dose of JAYPIRCA in four clinical studies, 480 (61%) were 65 years of age and older and 165 (21%) were 75 years and older [see Clinical Studies (14.2)]. No overall differences in effectiveness were observed between younger and older patients.

In the pooled safety population in patients with hematologic malignancies, 720 (62%) were 65 years of age and older, while 266 (23%) were 75 years of age and older. Patients aged 65 years and older experienced higher rates of Grade 3 and higher adverse reactions and serious adverse reactions compared to patients who were less than 65 years of age.

8.6 Renal Impairment

Severe renal impairment (eGFR 15-29 mL/min) increases pirtobrutinib exposure [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)]. Reduce the JAYPIRCA dosage in patients with severe renal impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.3)]. No dosage adjustment of JAYPIRCA is recommended in patients with mild (60-89 mL/min) or moderate (30-59 mL/min) renal impairment.

8.7 Hepatic Impairment

No dosage adjustment of JAYPIRCA is recommended in patients with mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > ULN or total bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), moderate hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 1.5 to 3 × ULN and any AST), or severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin > 3 × ULN and any AST) [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3 )].

11 DESCRIPTION

Pirtobrutinib is a kinase inhibitor. It is an orally available, small molecule ATP-competitive inhibitor of BTK. The active pharmaceutical ingredient is pirtobrutinib with the molecular formula C22H21F4N5O3 and a molecular weight of 479.44 g/mol. The chemical name for pirtobrutinib is 5-amino-3-{4-[(5-fluoro-2-methoxybenzamido)methyl]phenyl}-1-[(2S)-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-yl]-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide.

Pirtobrutinib is a white to practically white to yellow to brown solid. The aqueous solubility of pirtobrutinib is considered practically insoluble, or insoluble, across the pH 1 to pH 7 range.

Pirtobrutinib tablets are supplied as 50 mg or 100 mg film-coated, debossed tablets for oral administration. Each tablet contains inactive ingredients of croscarmellose sodium, hypromellose acetate succinate, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose and silicon dioxide. The tablet film coating material contains FD&C Blue #2, hypromellose, titanium dioxide and triacetin.

12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

12.1 Mechanism of action

Pirtobrutinib is a small molecule, noncovalent inhibitor of BTK. BTK is a signaling protein of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) and cytokine receptor pathways. In B-cells, BTK signaling results in activation of pathways necessary for B-cell proliferation, trafficking, chemotaxis, and adhesion. Pirtobrutinib binds to wild type BTK and BTK harboring C481 mutations, leading to inhibition of BTK kinase activity. In nonclinical studies, pirtobrutinib inhibited BTK-mediated B-cell CD69 expression and inhibited malignant B-cell proliferation. Pirtobrutinib showed dose-dependent anti-tumor activities in BTK wild type and BTK C481S mutant mouse xenograft models.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics

At the recommended dosage of 200 mg once daily, pirtobrutinib trough concentrations exceeded the BTK IC96. BTK occupancy is maintained throughout the dosing interval, regardless of the intrinsic rate of BTK turnover.

Cardiac Electrophysiology

The effect of a single 900 mg dose of pirtobrutinib (equivalent to approximately 2 times higher than the concentrations achieved at steady state at the recommended dosage of 200 mg once daily) on the QTc interval was evaluated in a placebo-controlled and positive-controlled study in 30 healthy subjects. Pirtobrutinib had no clinically meaningful effect on the change in QTcF interval (i.e., > 10 ms) and there was no relationship between pirtobrutinib exposure and change in QTc interval.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics

The pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib were characterized in healthy subjects and in patients with cancer. Pirtobrutinib exposure (AUC) and Cmax increases proportionally following single oral doses ranging from 300 mg to 800 mg (1.5 to 4 times the approved recommended dosage) and once daily doses ranging from 25 – 300 mg (0.125 to 1.5 times the recommended dosage). Steady state was achieved within 5 days of once daily dosing, and the mean (CV%) accumulation ratio was 1.63 (26.7%) based on AUC after administration of 200 mg dosages.

Following administration of the recommended dosage, the geometric mean (CV%) steady-state AUC and Cmax of pirtobrutinib were 97100 h*ng/mL (35.5%) and 6690 ng/mL (24%), respectively. The geometric mean (CV%) AUC0-24 and Cmax of pirtobrutinib on Cycle 1 Day 8 were 81800 h*ng/mL (66.6%) and 3670 ng/mL (89.5%), respectively.

Absorption

The absolute bioavailability of pirtobrutinib after a single oral 200 mg dose is 85.5% (range 75.9% to 90.9%). The median time (range) to reach peak plasma concentration (tmax) is approximately 2 hours (0.833 to 4.15 hours).

Effect of Food

No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib were observed following administration of a high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories with 150 calories from protein, 250 calories from carbohydrate, and 500 to 600 calories from fat) to healthy subjects. A high-fat meal decreased the Cmax of pirtobrutinib by 23% and delayed tmax by 1 hour. There was no effect on pirtobrutinib AUC.

Distribution

The mean apparent central volume of distribution of pirtobrutinib is 35.4 L. Human protein binding of pirtobrutinib is 96% and is independent of concentration in vitro. Mean blood-to-plasma ratio is 0.79.

Elimination

The effective half-life of pirtobrutinib is approximately 19.9 hours and the mean (CV%) apparent clearance is 1.98 L/h (32.1 %).

Metabolism

Pirtobrutinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 and direct glucuronidation by UGT1A8 and UGT1A9, in vitro.

Excretion

Following a single radiolabeled dose of pirtobrutinib 200 mg to healthy subjects, 37% of the dose was recovered in feces (18% unchanged) and 57% in urine (10% unchanged).

Specific Populations

There were no clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib based on age (range 22 to 95 years), sex, race/ethnicity (White 81%, Asian 11%), body weight (range 35.7 to 154 kg), mild (total bilirubin ≤ upper limit of normal (ULN) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > ULN or total bilirubin > 1 to 1.5 × ULN and any AST), moderate (total bilirubin > 1.5 to 3 × ULN and any AST), or severe (total bilirubin > 3 × ULN and any AST) hepatic impairment. The effect of other races/ethnicities on the pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib is unknown.

Patients with Renal Impairment

Following a single 200 mg oral dose, the AUC of pirtobrutinib in subjects with severe renal impairment (eGFR 15-29 mL/min) increased by 62% and mean unbound AUC increased by 68% compared to healthy subjects with normal renal function. There were no clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib in subjects with mild (eGFR 60-89 mL/min) or moderate renal impairment (eGFR 30-59 mL/min). The effect of renal impairment requiring dialysis on the pharmacokinetics of pirtobrutinib is unknown.

13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY

13.1 Carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, impairment of fertility

Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with pirtobrutinib.

Pirtobrutinib was not mutagenic in a bacterial mutagenicity (Ames) assay. Pirtobrutinib was aneugenic in in vitro micronucleus assays using human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Pirtobrutinib was not genotoxic in an in vivo rat bone marrow micronucleus assay at doses up to 2000 mg/kg.

Studies to assess the effects of pirtobrutinib on fertility have not been conducted. In repeat-dose toxicity studies of up to 3-months duration conducted with pirtobrutinib in rats and dogs, no effects on male or female reproductive organs were identified.

14 CLINICAL STUDIES

14.1 Mantle Cell Lymphoma

The efficacy of JAYPIRCA in patients with MCL was evaluated in BRUIN [NCT03740529], an open-label, international, multicohort, single-arm study of JAYPIRCA as monotherapy. Efficacy was based on 120 patients with MCL treated with JAYPIRCA who were previously treated with a BTK inhibitor. JAYPIRCA was given orally at a dose of 200 mg once daily and was continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with active central nervous system lymphoma or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or CAR-T cell therapy within 60 days were excluded.

The median age was 71 years (range: 46 to 88 years); 79% were male; 78% were White, 14% Asian, 1.7% Black or African American. Seventy-eight percent of patients had the classic/leukemic variant of MCL, 12% had pleomorphic MCL, and 11% had blastoid MCL. The simplified Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (sMIPI) score was low in 15%, intermediate in 59%, and high in 26% of patients. Patients received a median number of 3 prior lines of therapy (range: 1 to 9) with 93% having received 2 or more prior lines. All received 1 or more prior lines of therapy containing a BTK inhibitor; other prior therapies included chemoimmunotherapy in 88%, HSCT in 20%, lenalidomide in 18%, and CAR-T therapy in 9%. The most common prior BTK inhibitors received were ibrutinib (67%), acalabrutinib (30%), and zanubrutinib (8%). Patients may have received more than one prior BTK inhibitor; 83% of patients discontinued the last BTK inhibitor for refractory or progressive disease, 10% discontinued for toxicity, and 5% discontinued for other reasons.

Efficacy was established based on overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR), as assessed by an independent review committee (IRC) using 2014 Lugano criteria. Efficacy results are shown in Table 10. Additionally, the Kaplan-Meier estimate for the DOR rate at 6 months was 65.3% (95% CI: 49.8, 77.1).

14.2 Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

BRUIN

The efficacy of JAYPIRCA in patients with CLL/SLL was evaluated in BRUIN [NCT03740529] an open-label, international, single-arm, multicohort study of JAYPIRCA as monotherapy. Efficacy was based on 108 patients with CLL/SLL treated with JAYPIRCA who were previously treated with at least two prior lines of therapy, including a BTK inhibitor and a BCL-2 inhibitor. JAYPIRCA was given orally at a dose of 200 mg once daily and was continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The trial required a platelet count ≥ 50 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 x 109/L, hepatic transaminases ≤ 2.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN), and an ECOG performance status of 0 to 2. The trial excluded patients with significant cardiovascular disease, major bleeding, uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, prolonged QTc interval, or need for a strong CYP3A inhibitor or inducer or strong P-gp inhibitor. Patients with active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by lymphoma or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) within 60 days were excluded.

The median age was 68 years (range: 41 to 88 years); 69% were male; 89% were White, 4.6% Black or African American, 1.9% Asian and 1.9% were Hispanic or Latino. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 or 1 in 91% of patients and 48% of patients had Rai stage III or IV disease. Among those patients with central testing available, 42% (37 of 88 patients) had a C481 BTK mutation, 54% (43 of 79 patients) had 17p deletion and/or TP53 mutation, 93% (77 of 83 patients) had unmutated IGHV, and 22% (16 of 72 patients) had 11q deletion. Patients received a median number of 5 prior lines of therapy (range: 2 to 11). The most common prior BTK inhibitors received were ibrutinib (97%), acalabrutinib (9%), and zanubrutinib (0.9%). Seventy-seven percent of patients discontinued the last BTK inhibitor for refractory or progressive disease, 13% discontinued for toxicity, and 10% discontinued for other reasons.

Efficacy was established based on overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR), as assessed by an independent review committee (IRC) using 2018 iwCLL criteria. Efficacy results are shown in Table 11. The median time to response was 3.7 months (range: 1.7, 27.9 months).

BRUIN CLL-321

The efficacy of JAYPIRCA in patients with covalent BTK-inhibitor pretreated CLL/SLL was evaluated in a randomized, open-label, active-controlled study (BRUIN CLL-321, NCT04666038).

The trial randomized 238 patients who were previously treated for CLL/SLL, including a covalent BTK inhibitor. Patients previously treated with a non-covalent BTK inhibitor were not permitted. Patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either:

  • JAYPIRCA given orally once daily at a dose of 200 mg until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or
  • Investigator's choice:

    • Idelalisib plus a rituximab product (IR): Idelalisib 150 mg orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, in combination with 8 infusions of a rituximab product (375 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 of Cycle 1, followed by 500 mg/m2 every 2 weeks for 4 doses and then every 4 weeks for 3 doses), with a 28-day cycle length.
    • Bendamustine plus a rituximab product (BR): Bendamustine 70 mg/m2 intravenously (Day 1 and 2 of each 28-day cycle), in combination with a rituximab product (375 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 of Cycle 1, then 500 mg/m2 on Day 1 of subsequent cycles), for up to 6 cycles.

Crossover to JAYPIRCA monotherapy was permitted for patients in the investigator's choice arm after confirmed disease progression. Of the 119 patients in the investigator's choice arm, 50 crossed over to receive JAYPIRCA therapy.

Randomization was stratified by 17p deletion status and receipt of prior venetoclax treatment. Of the 238 patients randomized, 119 were assigned to JAYPIRCA monotherapy, 82 to IR, and 37 to BR. The median age was 67 years (range: 42 to 90 years); 70% were male; 81% were White, 12% Asian, 2.5% Black or African American, and 4.2% were Hispanic or Latino. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 or 1 in 93% of patients and 46% of patients had Rai stage III or IV disease. Forty four percent had 17p deletion and/or TP53 mutation, 69% had unmutated IGHV, and 41% had complex karyotype. Patients received a median number of 3 prior lines of therapy (range: 1 to 13); 51% had received prior BCL2-inhibitor therapy. The most common prior BTK inhibitors received were ibrutinib (87%), acalabrutinib (16%), and zanubrutinib (7%). Seventy-one percent of patients discontinued the most recent BTK inhibitor for refractory or progressive disease, 17% discontinued for toxicity, and 10% discontinued for other reasons.

Efficacy was established based on progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) using 2018 iwCLL criteria. The median duration of follow up at the primary analysis was 6.6 months. Efficacy results for the primary analysis are presented in Table 12 and Figure 1.

Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier Curve of IRC-Assessed PFS in Patients with CLL/SLL Previously Treated with a BTK Inhibitor in BRUIN CLL-321

At the primary analysis for PFS the objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by IRC using 2018 iwCLL criteria, was 31.1% (95% CI 23.0, 40.2) in the JAYPIRCA arm and 29.4% (95% CI 21.4, 38.5) in the investigator choice arm.

At an updated analysis with a median follow-up time of 19.8 months, 38 patients (32%) in the JAYPIRCA arm and 32 patients (27%) in the investigator's choice arm died. The unadjusted HR for overall survival (OS) was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.68, 1.75). The ORR was 48.7% (95% CI 39.5, 58.1) in the JAYPIRCA arm and 38.7% (95% CI 29.9, 48.0) in the investigator choice arm.

BRUIN CLL-313

The efficacy of JAYPIRCA was evaluated in a randomized, open-label, active-controlled study in 282 patients with treatment naïve CLL/SLL without 17p deletion (del17p) (BRUIN CLL-313, NCT05023980). The trial required patients to have a platelet count ≥ 75 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 0.75 x 109/L, and an estimated creatinine clearance ≥ 40 mL/min. The trial excluded patients with significant cardiovascular disease including uncontrolled or symptomatic arrhythmias, active uncontrolled auto-immune cytopenia, or an active second malignancy.

Patients were randomized 1:1 ratio to receive:

  • JAYPIRCA 200 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, or
  • Bendamustine plus a rituximab product (BR): Bendamustine 90 mg/m2 intravenously (Day 1 and 2 of each 28-day cycle), in combination with a rituximab product (375 mg/m2 intravenously on Day 1 of Cycle 1, then 500 mg/m2 on Day 1 of subsequent cycles), for up to 6 cycles.

Crossover to JAYPIRCA monotherapy was permitted for patients in the BR arm after confirmed disease progression. Eighteen out of the 141 patients in the BR arm crossed over and received JAYPIRCA therapy.

Randomization was stratified by immunoglobulin variable region heavy chain (IGHV) mutational status and by Rai stage status.

Of the 282 patients randomized, 141 were assigned to JAYPIRCA monotherapy and 141 to BR. The median age was 66 years (range: 29 to 88); 61% were male; 73% were White, 23% Asian, 0.4% Black or African American; 9% were Hispanic or Latino, 88% not Hispanic or Latino, 2.8% not reported or unknown. Baseline ECOG performance status was 0 or 1 in 94% of patients and 34% of patients had Rai stage III or IV disease. Among randomized patients, 57% had unmutated IGHV, and 10% had complex karyotype.

Efficacy was established based on progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC). The estimated median time of follow-up was 28 months. Efficacy results for the primary analysis are presented in Table 13 and Figure 2.
