AbbVie announces FDA approval of IMBRUVICA plus obinutuzumab


AbbVie (ABBV) announced that the U.S. FDA approved the use of IMBRUVICA in combination with obinutuzumab for adult patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma. The latest FDA approval expands the use of IMBRUVICA, which can already be administered as a single agent or in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) for adult CLL/SLL patients. IMBRUVICA is a once-daily, first-in-class Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is administered orally, and is jointly developed and commercialized by Pharmacyclics LLC, an AbbVie company, and Janssen Biotech (JNJ).
