Rilzabrutinib granted orphan drug designation in the US for sickle cell disease

 

•

Fourth orphan drug designation for rilzabrutinib in rare diseases

•

Under regulatory review in the US, the EU, and China in immune thrombocytopenia

Paris, June 3, 2025. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted orphan drug designation to rilzabrutinib, a novel, advanced, oral, reversible Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor that works via multi-immune modulation, to target a reduction in vaso-occlusive crises, which may occur via inflammation, in sickle cell disease. The FDA grants orphan drug designation to investigational therapies addressing rare medical diseases or conditions that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the US.

Karin Knobe, MD, PhD

Global Head of Development, Rare Diseases

“Receiving our fourth orphan drug designation for rilzabrutinib reinforces our continued dedication to developing medicines to address the unmet medical needs of people living with rare diseases. People with sickle cell disease often live with severe episodes of pain from vaso-occlusive crises and other complications that can significantly impact both quality of life and life expectancy. There remains a need for novel treatment approaches to address these experiences by modulating the immune system responses that can contribute to sickle cell disease pathogenesis.”

In addition to sickle cell disease, rilzabrutinib has received orphan drug designation for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in the US, the EU, and Japan, for warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA) in the US and the EU, and for IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) in the US.

The safety and efficacy of rilzabrutinib have not been determined by any regulatory authority. Rilzabrutinib is currently under regulatory review in the US, the EU, and in China for its potential use in ITP. The target action date for the FDA regulatory decision for ITP, which was granted fast track designation, is August 29, 2025.

Sickle cell disease supporting data

Preclinical data on sickle cell disease was presented at ASH 2024 showing that rilzabrutinib helped reduce vaso-occlusion –blockage of blood vessels – and inflammation in transgenic mice with sickle cell disease.

About rilzabrutinib

Rilzabrutinib is a novel, advanced, oral, reversible Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor that has the potential to be an effective new medicine for several rare immune-mediated or inflammatory diseases by working to restore immune balance via multi-immune modulation. BTK, expressed in B cells, macrophages, and other innate immune cells, plays a critical role in multiple immune-mediated disease processes and inflammatory pathways. With the application of Sanofi’s TAILORED COVALENCY® technology, rilzabrutinib can selectively inhibit the BTK target while potentially reducing the risk of off-target side effects.

About sickle cell disease

Sickle cell disease is a group of rare, genetic blood disorders in which red blood cells are misshapen, typically in a sickle or crescent shape, causing them to get stuck in small blood vessels, blocking blood flow. This can lead to episodes of severe pain as well as other health complications including infections, stroke, lung, eye, and kidney disease. Sickle cell disease affects more than 100,000 people in the US, approximately 90% of whom are African American and 3-9% of whom are Hispanic or Latino. Approximately 1 in 365 babies of African

ASCO: new Sarclisa data support subcutaneous administration with on-body injector

 

•

New data from two clinical studies demonstrated that Sarclisa administered subcutaneously via an investigational on-body injector shortened treatment time to minutes with similar efficacy and safety compared to intravenous infusion

•

Studies used Enable Injections’ enFuse® on-body injector, an automated hands-free injector

•

Data will form the basis of global regulatory submissions across all currently approved lines of treatment

Paris, June 3, 2025. New data from two clinical studies of the investigational use of Sarclisa administered subcutaneously (SC) via an on-body injector (OBI) (also referred to as an on-body delivery system) in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM) support the potential use of this innovative delivery method to advance patient care, while upholding Sarclisa’s efficacy and safety profile. The results were presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting and include full data from the IRAKLIA phase 3 study, the first to incorporate the use of an OBI in the treatment of MM, and demonstrate non-inferior efficacy and pharmacokinetics compared to Sarclisa intravenous (IV) infusion.

Alyssa Johnsen, MD, PhD

Global Therapeutic Area Head, Immunology and Oncology Development

“Our subcutaneous clinical program is rooted in our mission to address patient needs and reduce treatment burden in multiple myeloma. We believe the novel on-body injector represents a significant innovation that could improve and streamline the treatment process for both patients and providers. We are pleased to share these data, the first to evaluate an on-body injector with a multiple myeloma treatment, and look forward to potentially bringing this formulation and administration option to the multiple myeloma community.”

The OBI offers the potential to improve the overall patient experience in MM treatment. Recent studies and surveys suggest the use of an OBI may be associated with greater convenience, flexibility, and patient satisfaction compared to IV or manual SC administration methods. In addition, an OBI may also streamline the administration process for providers, potentially reducing the physical burden on nurses and enabling them to possibly move freely through the use of a hands-free device while monitoring the patient during injection.

The IRAKLIA phase 3 study and the IZALCO phase 2 study presented at ASCO were conducted using Enable Injections’ enFuse® hands-free OBI, an automated injector designed to subcutaneously administer high-volume medicines beginning with the click of a button, to administer the hyaluronidase-free SC formulation of Sarclisa. The enFuse device uses a 30 gauge, hidden, and retractable needle that is smaller compared to some of the commonly used large-volume SC injection needles, which may support patient comfort.

The safety and efficacy of Sarclisa SC administered with the OBI or manual administration are investigational and have not been approved for use by any regulatory authority.

IRAKLIA phase 3 study

IRAKLIA is a global, randomized, open-label, pivotal phase 3 non-inferiority study comparing Sarclisa SC administered via an OBI and Sarclisa IV, both in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone (Pd) in adult patients with R/R MM who have received at least one prior line of treatment. At the data cut-off of November 6, 2024, and a median follow-up of 12 months, the study demonstrated:

 

Primary endpoints

•

Objective response rate (ORR) with Sarclisa SC-Pd was 71.1% compared to 70.5% with Sarclisa IV-Pd, establishing non-inferiority (risk ratio [RR] 1.008; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.903-1.126; p=0.0006).

•

Observed Sarclisa mean (standard deviation [SD]) concentration before dosing (C trough) at steady state (C6D1 pre-dose) with Sarclisa SC-Pd was 499 (259) ug/mL compared to 341 (169) ug/mL with Sarclisa IV-Pd, establishing non-inferiority (geometric mean ratio [GMR] 1.532; 90% CI: 1.316-1.784).

Secondary endpoints

•

Very good partial response (VGPR) or better rates were consistent between Sarclisa SC-Pd and Sarclisa IV-Pd at 46.4% and 45.9%, respectively (RR 1.011; 95% CI: 0.841-1.215; p<0.0001).

•

Observed Sarclisa mean (SD) C trough at 4 weeks (C2D1 pre-dose) with Sarclisa SC-Pd was 421 (215) ug/mL compared to 302 (117) ug/mL with Sarclisa IV-Pd (GMR 1.302; 90% CI 1.158-1.465).

•

Systemic infusion reactions (IR) were significantly lower with Sarclisa SC-Pd, occurring in only 1.5% of patients compared to 25% of those treated with Sarclisa IV-Pd (RR: 0.061; 95% CI: 0.022-0.164; p<0.0001). Of note, nearly all IRs occurring were grade 1 or 2 and resolved within one day. No patients in the Sarclisa SC-Pd arm discontinued treatment due to a systemic IR.

•

Most Sarclisa SC-Pd-treated patients (70%) reported being satisfied or very satisfied with their injection compared to 53.4% in the Sarclisa IV-Pd arm, demonstrating the positive impact of this innovative method of administration on the patient experience (OR 2.036; 95% CI: 1.425-2.908; p=0.0001).

•

99.9% of Sarclisa SC OBI injections were successfully delivered with no significant safety concerns related to the OBI.

•

Progression-free survival (PFS) rates at 12 months were also similar, reaching 66.1% for patients treated with Sarclisa SC-Pd compared to 65.1% of patients treated with Sarclisa IV-Pd (HR 0.985; 95% CI: 0.726-1.338).

The overall safety profile of Sarclisa SC-Pd observed in this study was consistent with the established safety profile of Sarclisa IV-Pd, but with a notably lower rate of systemic IRs. No new safety concerns were observed, except for low-grade local injection site reactions (ISRs) associated with SC administration that occurred with a low incidence (0.4%, n=19/5,145 injections). Nearly all ISRs were grade 1, except for one episode of grade 2.

Xavier Leleu, MD, PhD

Head of the Department of Hematology and Myeloma Clinic at the Hôpital La Mileterie and study investigator

“Results from the IRAKLIA phase 3 study represent a potentially transformational advancement in the administration of multiple myeloma treatment. These data not only establish non-inferiority between Sarclisa administered both subcutaneously and intravenously across several key endpoints but reinforce the positive impact that this on-body injector could have on the patient treatment experience, as demonstrated by patient satisfaction scores.”

In addition to the oral presentation at ASCO, the full data were simultaneously published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.

IZALCO phase 2 study

In addition to the IRAKLIA phase 3 study, Sanofi also presented new data from the randomized, sequential, open-label, IZALCO phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Sarclisa SC administered via manual push or an OBI, in combination with carfilzomib and dexamethasone (Kd) in adult patients with R/R MM who have received one to three prior lines of therapy. At a median follow-up of 10.1 months, the study demonstrated:

•

ORR was 79.7% in patients treated with Sarclisa SC-Kd (95% CI: 68.8-88.2) validating the prespecified efficacy hypothesis.

 

 

•

With a median follow-up of 10 months, VGPR or better rate in patients treated with Sarclisa SC-Kd was 62.2% and complete response (CR) or better rate was 21.6%.

•

Only two patients treated with Sarclisa SC-Kd, or 2.7% of recipients, experienced a grade 2 or lower IR event with manual injection and no IR event occurred with OBI administration; approximately 1% of injections were associated with a local ISR.

•

After treatment with both methods, most patients (74.5%) preferred the OBI versus 17% who preferred manual injection and 8.5% with no preference (p=0.0004; binomial test against the null hypothesis of ≤50% rate).

The overall safety profile of Sarclisa SC-Kd observed in this study was consistent with the established safety profile of Sarclisa IV-Kd, with no new safety concerns observed.

Advancing patient and provider-centric innovation in MM

While SC administration is currently available for certain MM treatment regimens through a manual injection, administering large-volume medicines manually can present significant challenges, including a labor-intensive process for nurses, risk of strain and needlestick injuries, and potential need for larger needles that may compromise patient comfort and increase anxiety.

Mehul Desai, PharmD, MBA

Vice President, Medical Affairs, Enable Injections

“We believe multiple myeloma patients deserve a more convenient and comfortable treatment experience and recognize the crucial role providers play in delivering that care. Through our collaboration with Sanofi, we’ve aspired to advance an on-body injector that could transform the treatment experience for patients and providers alike. The results from the IRAKLIA and IZALCO studies represent a significant step toward our ambition and validate the potential of the on-body injector to deliver the same high standard of efficacy established with intravenous Sarclisa.”

In addition to IRAKLIA and IZALCO, Sanofi is also evaluating Sarclisa SC administration via an OBI in the front-line treatment setting. The ISASOCUT phase 2 study conducted by the University of Poitiers, is evaluating Sarclisa in combination with bortezomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone (VRd) in adult patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) not eligible for autologous stem-cell transplant (ASCT), while the German-speaking Myeloma Multicenter Group (GMMG)-HD8 phase 3 study, conducted in collaboration with the GMMG and the German Multiple Myeloma Study Group Consortium (DSMM), is evaluating Sarclisa SC-VRd induction in NDMM patients who are eligible for ASCT. In addition, results from the IZALCO, IRAKLIA and ISASOCUT studies will be presented at the European Hematology Association Congress later this month. The IRAKLIA abstract was also hand-selected to be included in the 2025 Best of ASCO program, held later in the summer of 2025, following the ASCO Annual Meeting. The data from these studies, collectively, will form the basis for global regulatory submissions.

Sarclisa administered subcutaneously via the on-body injector or manual administration is investigational and has not been approved for any use by any regulatory authority. The safety and efficacy of this formulation and delivery method have not been established.

About the IRAKLIA and IZALCO studies

IRAKLIA is a randomized, open-label, pivotal phase 3 study evaluating the non-inferiority of Sarclisa SC formulation administered at a fixed dose SC via an OBI versus weight-based dosed Sarclisa IV in combination with Pd in adult patients with R/R MM who have received at least one prior line of therapy. The co-primary outcomes being assessed are ORR, defined as the proportion of patients with stringent CR, CR, VGPR, and partial response (PR) according to the 2016 IMWG criteria assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC), and observed C trough at steady state (pre-dose at C6D1), defined as observed Sarclisa plasma concentrations.

IZALCO is a two-part, randomized, sequential, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Sarclisa SC formulation administered SC via manual push or an OBI in adult patients with R/R MM who have received one to three prior lines of therapy. The primary objective is ORR, as assessed by IRC. The secondary objective is patient preference for the OBI versus manual administration of Sarclisa SC.

Sanofi Launches 2025 Global Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Paris, June 5, 2025. Sanofi’s global employee shareholder plan, Action 2025, opens on June 10, 2025, to around 70,000 employees in 55 countries. Now in its 11th year, the program demonstrates the ongoing commitment of Sanofi and its Board of Directors to involve employees in the company’s growth and results. In 2024 alone, more than 32,000 Sanofi employees - 40% of the total workforce, chose to invest in the company through the program. Today, nearly 90,000 current or former Sanofi employees are shareholders, and hold approximately 2.55%1 of its capital.

Paul Hudson

Chief Executive Officer of Sanofi

“The Board of Directors and I are particularly proud to see the growing participation of our employees in our global employee shareholder plan, a commitment that has endured for more than a decade. This renewed confidence illustrates their active support for our transformation into a leading biopharmaceutical company at a decisive moment in our history.”

From June 10th, 2025, employees will be offered shares at a subscription price of €72.97, which is equal to a 20% discount on the average of the 20 opening prices of Sanofi shares from May 7 to June 3, 2025. For every five shares subscribed, employees will be offered one free matching share (up to a maximum of four matching shares per employee). Every eligible employee may purchase up to 1,500 Sanofi shares within the legal limit (maximum payment amount may not exceed 25% of their gross annual salary, minus any voluntary contributions already made in employee savings schemes, such as Company Savings Plan and/or Group Savings Plan and/or Group Retirement Savings Plan (PERCO) - voluntary contributions to the PERCOL are not concerned by this limit-during 20252.

Detailed conditions

An eligibility condition of three months employment by the closing date of the offer period will apply. Eligible staff will be able to subscribe for shares from June 10, 2025 (inclusive) to June 30, 2025 (inclusive). The issue is expected to be completed and the delivery of the securities carried out by the end of July 2025.

The number of shares offered is limited to 1% of Sanofi’s share capital as of January 29, 2025, reduced by the impact of the capital increase reserved to employees carried out in July 2024 (i.e., 10,386,831 shares). The new shares, including the matching shares (the “Shares”), will be subscribed (or delivered) either directly or through the intermediary of employee mutual funds (“FCPE”), depending on the regulations and/or tax regime applicable in the various countries of residence of those eligible for the capital increase.

The Shares will be fully fungible with the existing ordinary shares comprising the share capital of Sanofi and will acquire dividend rights as from January 1, 2025.

The voting rights attached to the subscribed Shares will be exercised directly by the employees.

Shares and the corresponding FCPE units subscribed, in France, within the framework of the Sanofi Group savings plan (PEG) must be held for a period of approximately five years, i.e. until May 31, 2030, except upon the occurrence of an early release event provided for under Article R. 3324-22 of the French Labour Code. For shares subscribed outside of France within the framework of the Sanofi International Group Shareholding Plan (IGSP), this period could be shortened to three years, i.e. until May 31, 2028, depending on the legal and tax implications that may arise in the subscriber’s country.

Admission of the Shares to trading on the Euronext Paris market (ISIN Code: FR0000120578) on the same line as the existing shares will be requested as soon as possible after the completion of the capital increase.
