AZ’s drug also met a key secondary endpoint for safety, with Calquence-treated patients demonstrating a statistically significant lower incidence of atrial fibrillation compared to patients treated with Imbruvica. In a statement, AZ added that there was also a ‘descriptive’ trend for numerically favourable overall survival for Calquence. “With over forty months of follow-up, today’s results confirm that Calquence, a selective BTK inhibitor, displays superior safety in atrial fibrillation without compromising efficacy,” said José Baselga, executive vice president, Oncology R&D at AZ/ “The totality of the data confirm our confidence in the favourable benefit-risk profile of Calquence,” ...
