We’re pleased to share that Jaypirca (pirtobrutinib) has been approved in China for adults with relapsed or refractory CLL/SLL after at least one prior line of therapy, including a BTK inhibitor. This expands options for patients who progress on covalent BTK agents.
Jaypirca is a highly selective, non-covalent (reversible) BTK inhibitor. It is designed to sustain BTK pathway inhibition, even after prior treatment with agents such as ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib. Its approval is supported by results from the BRUIN CLL-321 study.
This decision by the NMPA marks more than a regulatory step forward. It represents meaningful progress for patients in China who have had limited options after BTK therapy and underscores continued efforts to bring innovative hematology treatments to those who need them most.https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/jaypirca-pirtobrutinib-approved-in-china-for-the-treatment-of-relapsed-or-refractory-chronic-lymphocytic-leukemia-or-small-lymphocytic-lymphoma-302699561.html
