TREANDA produced meaningful and enduring 2nd-line responses
Single-agent TREANDA produced robust responses in patients previously treated with and resistant to rituximab-containing regimens
*Independent Review Committee assessment was based on modified International Working Group response criteria (IWG-RC). Modifications to IWG-RC specified that persistently positive bone marrow in patients who met all other criteria for CR would be scored as PR. Bone marrow sample lengths were not required to be ≥20 mm.
- The most common non-hematologic adverse reactions (frequency ≥30%) were nausea (75%), fatigue (57%), vomiting (40%), diarrhea (37%), and pyrexia (34%) (N=176)
- The most common hematologic abnormalities (frequency ≥15%) were lymphopenia (99%), leukopenia (94%), anemia (88%), neutropenia (86%), and thrombocytopenia (86%)
Overall response rate and duration of response were similar in patients ≥65 years of age and patients <65 years of age
- No clinically significant differences in the adverse reaction profile between older (≥65 years of age) and younger (<65 years of age) patients
Indications
TREANDA is indicated for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia
(CLL). Efficacy relative to first-line therapies other than chlorambucil has not
been established.
TREANDA is indicated for the treatment of patients with indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin’s
lymphoma (NHL) that has progressed during or within 6 months of treatment with rituximab
or a rituximab-containing regimen.
Important Safety Information
- Serious adverse reactions, including myelosuppression, infections, infusion reactions
and anaphylaxis, tumor lysis syndrome, skin reactions including SJS/TEN, other malignancies,
and extravasation, have been associated with TREANDA. Some reactions, such as myelosuppression,
infections, and SJS/TEN (when TREANDA was administered concomitantly with allopurinol
and other medications known to cause SJS/TEN), have been fatal. Patients should
be monitored closely for these reactions and treated promptly if any occur
- Adverse reactions may require interventions such as decreasing the dose of TREANDA,
or withholding or delaying treatment
- TREANDA is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to bendamustine
or mannitol. Women should be advised to avoid becoming pregnant while using TREANDA
- The most common non-hematologic adverse reactions associated with TREANDA (frequency ≥30%) were nausea, fatigue, vomiting, diarrhea, and pyrexia. The most common hematologic abnormalities associated with TREANDA (frequency ≥15%) were lymphopenia, leukopenia, anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia

TREANDA produced meaningful responses in disease resistant to prior chemotherapy1
*Sensitive was defined as a best response of CR or PR to treatment.
†Resistant was defined as a best response of no objective response or progressive disease.
- The most common non-hematologic adverse reactions (frequency ≥30%) were nausea (75%), fatigue (57%), vomiting (40%), diarrhea (37%), and pyrexia (34%) (N=176)
