(www.securabio.com), an integrated pharmaceutical company dedicated to the worldwide development and commercialization of impactful oncology therapies, today announced a poster presentation highlighting new data on the investigational use of COPIKTRA® (duvelisib) both as a single agent and in combination therapy for the treatment of Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL) and advanced hematologic malignancies at the upcoming 2024 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting taking place on December 7-10, 2024 in San Diego, CA.
The poster, entitled: Duvelisib in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma: Final Results from the Phase 2 PRIMO Trial highlights the outcomes of 123 patients in the PRIMO dose expansion phase of the PRIMO clinical trial and will be presented by Dr. Neha Mehta-Shah, Washington University School of Medicine, on Sunday, December 8, 2024, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM (PST) in the San Diego Convention Center, Halls G-H.

The PRIMO clinical trial was a global, multicenter, open-label, parallel cohort, Phase 2 study sponsored by Secura Bio, Inc., that evaluated COPIKTRA for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL). Based on the dose optimization phase results, an expansion group of 123 patients was added in which COPIKTRA was dosed at 75 mg twice daily for two cycles, followed by 25 mg twice daily.
COPIKTRA will also be highlighted in a number of other poster presentations evaluating combination therapy, including:
Dr Alison Moskowitz, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, will be presenting an oral presentation entitled Dual-targeted therapy with ruxolitinib plus duvelisib for T-cell lymphoma. Dr Moskowitz will be presenting on Sunday, December 8, 2024, from 9:30 AM - 11:00 AM (PST) in the San Diego Convention Center, Ballroom 20CD
Dr Jennifer Crombie, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will be presenting a poster entitled A Phase 2 Study of Duvelisib and Venetoclax in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory (R/R) Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Richter’s Syndrome (RS) on Monday, December 9, 2024, from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM (PST) in the San Diego Convention Center, Halls G-H
Dr Hayder Saeed, Moffitt Cancer Center, will be presenting a poster entitled A Phase I Study Of Duvelisib In Combination With Oral Azacitidine (BMS-986345) In Lymphoid Malignancy on Sunday, December 8, 2024, from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM (PST) in the San Diego Convention Center, Halls G-H
Dr Josie Ford, Massachusetts General Hospital, will be presenting a poster entitled Real-World Evidence for Duvelisib and Romidepsin Combination in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas on Monday, December 9, 2024, from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM (PST) in the San Diego Convention Center, Halls G-H
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a rare, aggressive type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that develops in mature white blood cells that circulate through the bloodstream and lymphatic system. PTCL accounts for between 10-15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas and generally affects people aged 60 years and older. Although there are many different subtypes of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, they often present in a similar way, with widespread, enlarged, typically painless lymph nodes in the neck, armpit, and/or groin. There are currently no well-established standards of care for patients with relapsed or refractory disease.
COPIKTRA is an oral inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and the first United States FDA approved dual inhibitor of PI3K-delta and PI3K-gamma, two enzymes known to help support the growth and survival of malignant cells. PI3K signaling may lead to the proliferation of malignant cells and is thought to play a role in the formation and maintenance of a supportive tumor microenvironment. COPIKTRA is a kinase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy.
Limitations of Use: COPIKTRA is not indicated or recommended for the treatment of any patients with CLL or SLL as initial or second line treatment due to an increased risk of treatment-related mortality.
COPIKTRA is also being investigated for the treatment of lymphomas, including peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL). COPIKTRA has been given Fast Track status in the United States for the treatment of adult patients with PTCL who have received at least one prior therapy. Additionally, COPIKTRA has received an Orphan Drug Designation for use in the treatment of T-cell lymphomas. Treatment of T-cell lymphomas is a disease category for which COPIKTRA is not currently indicated.
COPIKTRA is being investigated in combination with other agents across several types of solid and hematologic malignancies, through investigator-sponsored studies.
