26.0 months mOS in patients with CR/CRi (95% CI: 21.9-NE)2

  • The ZUMA-3 primary analysis publication reported that mOS was 18.2 months (95% CI: 15.9-NE) at a median study follow-up of 16.4 months2
  • OS was a secondary endpoint of the ZUMA-3 phase 2, single-arm, open-label study and was not the primary objective of the study3
  • The ~2-year OS analysis included patients who subsequently received allo-SCT (n=10) while in remission and who started new anti-cancer therapy (n=6). The KM estimate of OS at 2 years was 56% (n=55; 95% CI: 0.41-0.68). The KM mOS was 25.4 months (n=55; 95% CI: 16.2-NE)2
  • OS data are not included in the USPI. OS data are descriptive and should be carefully interpreted in light of the single-arm design

15.5 months RFS in patients who achieved CR/CRi (n=39 responders)2

Chart showing that mRFS in patients who achieved CR/CRi was 20.5 months. Chart showing that mRFS in patients who achieved CR/CRi was 20.5 months.
