Johnson & Johnson’s DARZALEX® (daratumumab) subcutaneous-based regimen receives positive CHMP opinion for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, regardless of transplant eligibility

If approved, daratumumab will be the only anti-CD38 available for all patient types across newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, cementing daratumumab as a foundational therapy in the frontline setting. Recommendation supported by results from CEPHEUS, the fifth Phase 3 study of daratumumab to demonstrate improved progression free survival in the frontline setting.1,2,3,4

TREMFYA® (guselkumab) subcutaneous (SC) induction data support potential to be the first and only in its class to offer the option of both intravenous and SC induction therapy in ulcerative colitis

Phase 3 ASTRO study achieves primary and all secondary endpoints at Week 12 in ulcerative colitis patients The only SC induction data for an IL-23 inhibitor show statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements across clinical and endoscopic measures versus placebo, consistent with IV induction

New nipocalimab data published in mAbs journal details differentiated molecular design, clinical profile and potential of nipocalimab to treat IgG-driven alloantibody and autoantibody diseases

Published results reinforce the high-affinity binding and immunoselective properties of nipocalimab, which has been shown to reduce IgG levels by >75%, including autoantibodies, potentially without affecting other immune functions

Johnson & Johnson Statement on Phase 3 E.mbrace Study

Independent, scheduled review finds investigational vaccine regimen lacks efficacy in preventing invasive E. coli disease (IED) No safety signals identified

CHMP recommends subcutaneous RYBREVANT®▼ (amivantamab) for the treatment of patients with advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer

Data from the Phase 3 PALOMA-3 study showed non-inferiority to intravenous administration meeting both co-primary pharmacokinetic (PK) endpoints, as well as a five-fold reduction in infusion-related reactions and fewer venous thromboembolic events1 CHMP has issued a positive opinion for an extension of marketing authorisation for subcutaneous amivantamab dosed every two weeks

Findings from pivotal nipocalimab Phase 3 study in a broad antibody positive population of people living with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) published in The Lancet Neurology

The first FcRn blocker to demonstrate sustained disease control over 24 weeks in antibody positive adult patients: anti-AChR+, anti-MuSK+, anti-LRP4+ Nipocalimab demonstrated a sustained reduction in autoantibody levels, one of the underlying causes of gMG, by up to 75% over a period of 24 weeks The investigational therapy was recently granted U.S. FDA Priority Review for the treatment of gMG

SPRAVATO® (esketamine) approved in the U.S. as the first and only monotherapy for adults with treatment-resistant depression

Following U.S. FDA Priority Review, approval is based on data demonstrating SPRAVATO® alone met its primary endpoint at 4 weeks and led to rapid and superior improvement in depressive symptoms compared to placebo as early as 24 hours1 SPRAVATO® alone showed a rapid and superior improvement vs. placebo in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score, with numerical improvements across all 10 MADRS items seen at day 28 in a post-hoc analysis2 Monotherapy data adds to well-established clinical efficacy and real-world safety profile of SPRAVATO®

European Commission approves LAZCLUZE®▼ (lazertinib) in combination with RYBREVANT®▼ (amivantamab) for the first-line treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Latest topline data from the Phase 3 MARIPOSA study shows amivantamab plus lazertinib is the first regimen to demonstrate superior overall survival benefit compared to the current standard of care osimertinib1 Median overall survival improvement is expected to exceed one year1

New Drug Application initiated with U.S. FDA for TAR-200, the first and only intravesical drug releasing system for patients with BCG-unresponsive high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer

Application accepted for U.S. FDA Real-Time Oncology Review (RTOR) based on Phase 2b SunRISe-1 study showing highest single-agent complete response rate of 83.5 percent1
