HONG KONG and SHANGHAI and FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Sept. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUTCHMED (China) Limited (“HUTCHMED”) (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13) today announces that new and updated data from several studies of compounds discovered by HUTCHMED will be presented at the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (“WCLC24”) in San Diego, USA, and the European Society for Medical Oncology (“ESMO”) Congress 2024, taking place in Barcelona, Spain.

Results from the FLOWERS study, a prospective, two-arm, randomized, multicenter Phase II clinical trial of osimertinib with or without savolitinib as first-line treatment in EGFRm, MET-aberrant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) patients, will be presented at WCLC24. As of May 28, 2024, the median follow-up was 8.2 months. Patients treated with osimertinib plus savolitinib (Cohort 2, N=21) showed deeper and more durable response over osimertinib monotherapy (Cohort 1, N=23) along the study follow-up. The confirmed objective response rate (ORR) in Cohort 1 and Cohort 2 were 60.9% and 90.5%, respectively, with disease control rate (DCR) of 87% and 95.2%, respectively. Immature progression-free survival (“PFS”) data also showed a positive trend in favor of the combination therapy, with median PFS of 9.3 months and 19.6 months in the cohort 1 and cohort 2 with maturity of 34.8% and 23.8%, respectively. Safety profiles of osimertinib monotherapy and osimertinib plus savolitinib were as expected, tolerable and manageable.

These forward-looking statements reflect HUTCHMED’s current expectations regarding future events, including but not limited to its expectations regarding the therapeutic potential of fruquintinib, savolitinib and surufatinib, the further clinical development for fruquintinib, savolitinib and surufatinib, its expectations as to whether any studies on fruquintinib, savolitinib and surufatinib, would meet their primary or secondary endpoints, and its expectations as to the timing of the completion and the release of results from such studies. Such risks and uncertainties include, among other things, assumptions regarding enrollment rates and the timing and availability of subjects meeting a study’s inclusion and exclusion criteria; changes to clinical protocols or regulatory requirements; unexpected adverse events or safety issues; the ability of fruquintinib, savolitinib and surufatinib, including as combination therapies, to meet the primary or secondary endpoint of a study, to obtain regulatory approval in different jurisdictions and to gain commercial acceptance after obtaining regulatory approval; the potential markets of fruquintinib, savolitinib and surufatinib for a targeted indication, and the sufficiency of funding. In addition, as certain studies rely on the use of CAPEOX, docetaxel, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, paclitaxel, pemetrexed, platinum, sintilimab, topotecan, tislelizumab or toripalimab as combination therapeutics, such risks and uncertainties include assumptions regarding their safety, efficacy, supply and continued regulatory approval.
