Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluated the safety, efficacy and clinical benefit of BGB-3111 (zanubrutinib) vs ibrutinib in participants with MYD88 Mutation Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This open-label, randomized study compared the efficacy and safety of the Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitors BGB-3111 and ibrutinib in participants with Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia who require therapy. Participants had baseline bone marrow samples assayed for sequencing of the MYD88 gene. 201 participants with the MYD88 mutation were enrolled and randomized to receive 160 mg BGB-3111 orally twice per day (PO BID) (treatment Arm A) or to receive 420mg ibrutinib orally once per day (PO QD) (treatment Arm B) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

* Major surgery within 4 weeks of study treatment
* Toxicity of ≥ Grade 2 from prior anticancer therapy
* History of other active malignancies within 2 years of study entry, with exception of (1) adequately treated in-situ carcinoma of cervix; (2) localized basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of skin; (3) previous malignancy confined and treated locally with curative intent
* Currently active, clinically significant cardiovascular disease such as uncontrolled arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, any Class 3 or 4 cardiac disease within 6 months of screening

* Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or active hepatitis B or hepatitis C
* Pregnant or lactating women
* Any life-threatening illness, medical condition, organ system dysfunction, need for profound anticoagulation, or bleeding disorder, which, in the investigator's opinion, could compromise the subject's safety
