Primary Endpoint of Phase-3 Trial is Progression-Free Survival

The Phase-3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance therapy with pamiparib versus a placebo in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who achieved a complete response or partial response after platinum-based chemotherapy, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS) determined by independent review. Secondary objectives include PFS per RECIST version 1.1 determined by investigator, overall survival, objective response rate, duration of response, time to response, safety, and tolerability. Approximately 215 patients are planned to be enrolled in this trial at 15-20 cancer centers in China.

Trial to Support BeiGene’s Planned Initial Regulatory Submission for Treatment of Patients with Advanced Ovarian Cancer Who Carry a Germline BRCA1/2 Mutation

Amy Peterson, M.D., Chief Medical Officer for Immuno-Oncology of BeiGene, stated that the Company is pleased to announce the initiation of this Phase 3 trial of pamiparib in China as a potential maintenance therapy in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. Amy added that this trial is designed to provide important confirmatory clinical data that could enable registration in the maintenance setting, as well support the Company’s planned initial regulatory submission for the treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer who carry a germline BRCA1/2 mutation.

BeiGene Presented Clinical Data on Pamiparib in Chinese Patients with Ovarian Cancers

On April 16, 2018, the Company announced that preliminary clinical data from an ongoing Phase-1 trial of its investigational PARP inhibitor pamiparib in Chinese patients with locally advanced or metastatic high-grade non-mucinous ovarian cancer (HGOC), including fallopian cancer, or triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), who had disease progression following at least one line of chemotherapy were presented at the 2018 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting, being held in Chicago. Data presented from the dose-escalation phase of the ongoing Phase-1 trial confirmed the recommended Phase-2 dose (RP2D) of 60mg twice daily (BID) in Chinese patients and demonstrated that pamiparib showed antitumor activity and was generally well tolerated in these patients.
