Genmab Announces EPKINLY® (epcoritamab-bysp) in Combination with Rituximab and Lenalidomide Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Follicular Lymphoma

Company Announcement

  • EPKINLY plus rituximab and lenalidomide (EPKINLY + R2) is the first and only bispecific-based therapy approved by the FDA for follicular lymphoma in the second-line setting
  • In the Phase 3 EPCORE® FL-1 trial, fixed duration EPKINLY + R2 demonstrated significantly superior progression-free survival and overall response rates compared to standard of care R2, with approximately three out of four patients achieving a complete response
  • This approval marks the third indication for EPKINLY and the first-ever FDA approval for a bispecific combination therapy in the lymphoma space

COPENHAGEN, Denmark; November 18, 2025 – Genmab A/S (Nasdaq: GMAB) announced today that EPKINLY® (epcoritamab-bysp) in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide (EPKINLY + R2) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL). The approval is based on results from the pivotal Phase 3 EPCORE® FL-1 study that evaluated fixed duration EPKINLY + R2 compared to standard of care R2.i

In the study, treatment with fixed duration EPKINLY + R2 reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 79% (HR 0.21, 95% CI: 0.13-0.33, p<0.0001) compared to R2. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached (NR) among patients treated with EPKINLY + R2 (95% CI: 21.9-NR) compared to 11.2 months for patients treated with R2 (95% CI: 10.5-NR). Among patients who were treated with EPKINLY + R2, 89% responded to treatment (n=216/243, 95% CI: 84-93, p<0.0001) and 74% achieved a complete response (CR) (n=181/243, 95% CI: 69-80). This is compared to a 74% overall response rate (n=181/245, 95% CI: 68-79) and 43% CR rate among patients treated with R2 (n=106/245, 95% CI: 37-50).i The Phase 3 EPCORE FL-1 study included patients with relapsed or recurrent FL following at least one prior line of treatment across a broad range of patient characteristics and disease risk factors.

The safety profile of EPKINLY + R2 in the EPCORE FL-1 study was generally consistent with the known safety profiles of the individual regimens (epcoritamab and R2). The most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions in patients who received EPKINLY + R2 were rash, upper respiratory tract infections, fatigue, injection site reactions, constipation, diarrhea, cytokine release syndrome (CRS), pneumonia, COVID-19, and fever. The most common Grade 3 to 4 laboratory abnormalities (≥ 10%) were decreased neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, and platelets. CRS occurred in 24% of patients at the recommended 3 step-up dosing schedule, and was primarily low grade (19% Grade 1, 5% Grade 2). A single event of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) occurred in one patient, grade 1 (0.8%). The prescribing information has a Boxed Warning for serious or fatal CRS and ICANS. Warnings and precautions include infections, cytopenias, and embryo-fetal toxicity. Please see additional Important Safety Information below.i

“Recurrent follicular lymphoma can be an incurable, complex, and persistent disease, creating a clear need for additional treatments that can change its course earlier in the treatment journey,” said Lorenzo Falchi, M.D., Lymphoma Specialist, Department of Medicine, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. “The results shown with EPKINLY + R2 in the EPCORE FL-1 study are incredibly meaningful, demonstrating durable responses compared to patients treated with R2 alone. These data, delivered by a regimen that’s chemotherapy-free and can be administered in the outpatient setting, suggest that EPKINLY + R2 could potentially become a new standard of care.”
  
FL is typically a slow-growing form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that impacts approximately 15,000 new patients per year in the U.S..ii,iii The disease is considered incurable with current standard of care therapies.iv Patients with FL often relapse, and in some cases, the disease can transform into a more aggressive form of NHL called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).v

“Today’s milestone marks meaningful progress for people living with follicular lymphoma. With a bispecific-based therapy that can be administered in a variety of medical settings, patients have the possibility of accessing this treatment at sites of care closer to where they live,” said Meghan Gutierrez, Chief Executive Officer, Lymphoma Research Foundation.

EPKINLY + R2 was previously granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) by the FDA for the treatment of R/R FL. This designation is granted to investigational medicines for serious or life-threatening diseases in cases where preliminary clinical evidence shows that the therapy may provide substantial improvements over available therapies.

“The FDA approval of EPKINLY + R2 is an important advancement for patients with follicular lymphoma, enabling treatment at initial recurrence when more effective intervention is needed,” said Judith Klimovsky, M.D., Executive Vice President & Chief Development Officer, Genmab. “This milestone also underscores EPKINLY’s potential as the core therapy for B-cell malignancies, demonstrating benefit in combination and earlier disease, and building on its established role as a single agent option in later lines of treatment.”

In June 2024, EPKINLY monotherapy was granted accelerated approval by the FDA for the treatment of R/R FL following two or more lines of systemic therapy. With the results from the confirmatory Phase 3 EPCORE FL-1 study, the FDA has also converted the accelerated approval into a full approval.

Data from the Phase 3 EPCORE FL-1 study will be presented at the Annual Meeting and Exposition of the American Society of Hematology in December.

About the EPCORE FL-1 Trial
EPCORE FL-1 (NCT05409066) is a Phase 3 open-label interventional trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of epcoritamab plus rituximab and lenalidomide (R2) versus R2 alone in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL). Patients were randomized to receive EPKINLY in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide (n=243) or rituximab and lenalidomide alone (n=245). Patients received EPKINLY in 28-day cycles for a total of 12 cycles or until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, whichever occurred first. Efficacy was established based on the dual primary endpoints of progression free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR) determined by Lugano 2014 criteria as assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC). Additional efficacy outcome measures include complete response (CR) and duration of response (DOR).

EPKINLY® (epcoritamab-bysp) U.S. INDICATIONS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

What is EPKINLY?
EPKINLY is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with:

  • certain types of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or high-grade B-cell lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or that did not respond (refractory), after 2 or more treatments.
    • EPKINLY for the treatment of DLBCL is approved based on patient response data. Studies are ongoing to confirm the clinical benefit of EPKINLY.
  • follicular lymphoma (FL) that has come back or that did not respond to previous treatment, together with lenalidomide and rituximab
  • follicular lymphoma (FL) that has come back or that did not respond after receiving 2 or more treatments.

It is not known if EPKINLY is safe and effective in children.

Important Warnings—EPKINLY can cause serious side effects, including:

  • Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which is common during treatment with EPKINLY and can be serious or lead to death. To help reduce your risk of CRS, you will receive EPKINLY on a step-up dosing schedule (when you receive 2 or 3 smaller step-up doses of EPKINLY before your first full dose during your first cycle of treatment), and you may also receive other medicines before and for 3 days after receiving EPKINLY. If your dose of EPKINLY is delayed for any reason, you may need to repeat the step-up dosing schedule.
  • Neurologic problems that can be serious, and can be life-threatening, and lead to death. Neurologic problems may happen days or weeks after you receive EPKINLY.

People with DLBCL or high-grade B-cell lymphoma should be hospitalized for 24 hours after receiving their first full dose of EPKINLY on Day 15 of Cycle 1 due to the risk of CRS and neurologic problems.

People with follicular lymphoma (FL) may need to be hospitalized after receiving their first full dose of EPKINLY on Day 22 of Cycle 1 due to the risk of CRS.

Tell your healthcare provider or get medical help right away if you develop a fever of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher; dizziness or lightheadedness; trouble breathing; chills; fast heartbeat; feeling anxious; headache; confusion; shaking (tremors); problems with balance and movement, such as trouble walking; trouble speaking or writing; confusion and disorientation; drowsiness, tiredness or lack of energy; muscle weakness; seizures; or memory loss. These may be symptoms of CRS or neurologic problems. If you have any symptoms that impair consciousness, do not drive or use heavy machinery or do other dangerous activities until your symptoms go away.

EPKINLY can cause other serious side effects, including:

  • Infections that may lead to death. Your healthcare provider will check you for signs and symptoms of infection before and during treatment and treat you as needed if you develop an infection. You should receive medicines from your healthcare provider before you start treatment to help prevent infection. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you develop any symptoms of infection during treatment, including fever of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher, cough, chest pain, tiredness, shortness of breath, painful rash, sore throat, pain during urination, feeling weak or generally unwell, or confusion.
  • Low blood cell counts, which can be serious or severe. Your healthcare provider will check your blood cell counts during treatment. EPKINLY may cause low blood cell counts, including low white blood cells (neutropenia and lymphopenia), which can increase your risk for infection; low red blood cells (anemia), which can cause tiredness and shortness of breath; and low platelets (thrombocytopenia), which can cause bruising or bleeding problems.

Your healthcare provider will monitor you for symptoms of CRS, neurologic problems, infections, and low blood cell counts during treatment with EPKINLY. Your healthcare provider may temporarily stop or completely stop treatment with EPKINLY if you develop certain side effects.

Before you receive EPKINLY, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including if you have an infection, are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. If you receive EPKINLY while pregnant, it may harm your unborn baby. If you are a female who can become pregnant, your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment with EPKINLY and you should use effective birth control (contraception) during treatment and for 4 months after your last dose of EPKINLY. Tell your healthcare provider if you become pregnant or think that you may be pregnant during treatment with EPKINLY. Do not breastfeed during treatment with EPKINLY and for 4 months after your last dose of EPKINLY.

The most common side effects of EPKINLY when used alone in DLBCL or high-grade B-cell lymphoma or FL include CRS, injection site reactions, tiredness, muscle and bone pain, fever, diarrhea, COVID-19, rash, and stomach-area (abdominal) pain. The most common severe abnormal laboratory test results with EPKINLY when used alone include decreased white blood cells, decreased red blood cells, and decreased platelets.

The most common side effects of EPKINLY when used together with lenalidomide and rituximab in FL include rash, upper respiratory tract infections, tiredness, injection site reactions, constipation, diarrhea, CRS, pneumonia, COVID-19, and fever. The most common severe abnormal laboratory test results with EPKINLY when used together with lenalidomide and rituximab include decreased white blood cells and decreased platelets.

These are not all of the possible side effects of EPKINLY. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.

You are encouraged to report side effects to the FDA at (800) FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch or to Genmab US, Inc. at 1-855-4GENMAB (1-855-443-6622).

Nasus Pharma Announces Initiation of Phase 2 Clinical Study of NS002 with First Participant Dosed

Nasus Pharma Announces Initiation of Phase 2 Clinical Study of NS002 with First Participant Dosed




Nasus Pharma Announces Initiation of Phase 2 Clinical Study of NS002 with First Participant Dosed

The Phase 2 study is designed to address regulatory approval considerations by comparing bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of NS002 against EpiPen

Previous clinical study demonstrated NS002 can achieve faster and higher absorption of epinephrine compared to an autoinjector

Dosing of the first participant in the Phase 2 study in Canada reflects the successful initiation of the Company’s needle-free epinephrine delivery program for anaphylaxis treatment

Interim results are expected in the first quarter of 2026

TEL AVIV, Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nasus Pharma Ltd. (NYSE: NSRX) (“Nasus Pharma” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development of innovative intranasal products to treat emergency medical conditions, today announced the successful initiation of the Company’s Phase 2 clinical study with dosing of the first participant in Canada. The trial aims to evaluate NS002, the Company’s investigational intranasal epinephrine powder formulation, compared to EpiPen for the treatment of anaphylaxis. NS002 could potentially offer patients a needle-free alternative to traditional epinephrine autoinjectors.

The Phase 2 study is an open-label, fixed-sequence trial designed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic parameters and hemodynamic responses of NS002 compared to EpiPen in 50 healthy adults with a history of allergic rhinitis.  Interim results from this trial are expected in the first quarter of 2026.

“The dosing of the first participant in our Phase 2 study marks a significant milestone for our NS002 program and for patients with severe allergies who need more user-friendly treatment options to manage life-threatening anaphylaxis,” said Dan Teleman, Chief Executive Officer of Nasus Pharma. “We are moving forward at full speed, executing the NS002 development program as planned, and positioning the Company for its next stage of growth. For millions suffering from severe allergies, the fear of needles and the inconvenience of carrying cumbersome autoinjectors leads to poor compliance and potentially life-threatening outcomes in anaphylaxis management.”

About Nasus Pharma
Nasus Pharma is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing a number of intranasal powder products addressing acute medical conditions in the community. NS002, Nasus’s intranasal powder Epinephrine product candidate is being developed as a needle-free alternative to Epinephrine autoinjectors for patients with anaphylaxis. Intranasal administration is most suitable for those situations in which rapid drug delivery is required and offers needle free, easy to use alternatives. Nasus proprietary powder-based intranasal (“PBI”) technology is designed for rapid and reliable drug delivery, leveraging the nasal cavity’s rich vascular network for quick absorption. The PBI formulation uses uniform spherical powder particles for broad dispersion and potentially faster, higher absorption compared to liquid-based nasal products.
