Additional Information

Additional Relevant Details Prior to the amendments, the GENUINE study consisted of two parts:
  • Part I to evaluate the effect of the addition of TG-1101 to ibrutinib on overall response rate (ORR) in approximately the first 200 patients enrolled, to support a filing for accelerated approval of TG-1101; and
  • Part II to evaluate the effect of the addition of TG-1101 to ibrutinib on progression-free survival (PFS) in all study patients (approximately 330), to support a filing for full approval of TG-1101.
The amended protocol contains the following substantive changes:
  • Part II of the study has been eliminated, and accordingly, the study's sole primary endpoint will be ORR as originally contemplated in Part I; and
  • Target enrollment has been reduced to approximately 120 randomized patients. 

At the new study size, the study is 90% powered to show a statistically significant improvement in ORR, with the minimal detectable difference of approximately 20% (absolute difference between the arms). Additionally, patients will be followed until progression, but the study will no longer be powered for PFS.
