'Our strong second quarter performance reinforces our trajectory as a global oncology powerhouse and underscores our proven ability to deliver sustainable, long-term growth,' said John V.

BRUKINSA, the backbone of our hematology franchise, continues to set the standard as the best-in-class BTK inhibitor with the most approved indications and market leader in the US, a position earned from superior efficacy, favorable safety, and positive patient outcomes across its five indications. Building on this momentum, our two additional Phase 3 hematology assets, BCL2 inhibitor sonrotoclax and BTK CDAC BGB-16673, have the potential to further expand our franchise leadership with pivotal data readouts and new trial initiations anticipated in the near-term. At our recent Investor R&D Day, we outlined a bold path forward with more than 20 expected R&D milestones in the next 18 months. This includes potentially promising advances across our expansive solid tumor pipeline, where we are building future global franchises targeting a range of highly prevalent cancers.'

Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Revenue for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.3 billion, compared to $929 million in the prior-year period driven primarily by growth in BRUKINSA (zanubrutinib) product sales in the U.S. and Europe. Product Revenue totaled $1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $921 million in the prior-year period. The increase in product revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales of BRUKINSA. The U.S. continued to be the Company's largest market, with product revenue of $685 million compared to $479 million in the prior-year period. In-licensed products from Amgen and TEVIMBRA (tislelizumab) also contributed to product revenue growth. U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $684 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 43% over the prior-year period driven primarily by robust demand growth across all indications and modest benefit due to net pricing. BRUKINSA continues to maintain its leading new patient share across the BTKi class due to its differentiated, best-in-class clinical profile. BRUKINSA sales in Europe totaled $150 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 85% compared to the prior-year period, driven by increased market share across all major European markets, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and the UK. Sales of TEVIMBRA totaled $194 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 22% compared to the prior-year period. Gross Margin as a percentage of global product sales for the second quarter of 2025 was 87.4% compared to 85.0% in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis. The gross margin percentage increased due to a proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in our portfolio. Gross margin also benefited from cost of sales productivity improvements for both BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA. On an adjusted basis, which does not include depreciation and amortization, gross margin as a percentage of product sales increased to 88.1% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 85.4% in the prior-year period.

Upfront fees and milestone payments related to in-process R&D for in-licensed assets totaled $0.5 million and $12 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses increased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to continued investment in global commercial expansion, primarily in the U.S. and Europe. SG&A expenses as a percentage of product sales were 41% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 48% in the prior-year period. Net Income/(Loss) and GAAP/Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $94 million, an increase of $215 million over the prior-year period loss, primarily attributable to revenue growth and improved operating leverage. For the second quarter of 2025, basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.07 and $0.06 per share and $0.87 and $0.84 per American Depositary Share (ADS), respectively, compared to basic loss of $0.09 per share and $1.15 per ADS in the prior-year period. Free Cash Flow for the second quarter of 2025 was $220 million, an increase of $425 million over the prior-year period.

Full Year 2025 Guidance BeOne has updated its full year 2025 revenue guidance and maintained its expense guidance. Guidance is summarized below: ​ Prior ​FY 2025 Guidance1​ Current ​FY 2025 Guidance1​ Total Revenue​ $4.9 – $5.3B​ $5.0 – $5.3B​ GAAP Operating Expenses​ (R&D and SG&A)​ $4.1 – $4.4B​ $4.1 – $4.4B​ GAAP Gross Margin %​ Mid-80% range​ Mid to high-80% range​ GAAP Operating Income​ Positive FY 2025​ Positive FY 2025​ Cash Flow​ Positive FY 2025 ​ cash flow from operations​ Positive FY 2025​ free cash flow​ 1 Does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items. Assumes June 30, 2025 foreign exchange rates. BeOne's total revenue guidance for full year 2025 of $5.0 billion to $5.3 billion includes expectations for strong revenue growth driven by BRUKINSA's U.S. leadership position and continued global expansion in both Europe and other important rest of world markets. Gross margin percentage is expected to be in the mid- to high-80% range due to mix and production efficiencies as compared to 2024. BeOne's guidance for combined operating expenses on a GAAP basis includes expectations of investment to support growth in both commercial and research at a pace that continues to deliver meaningful operating leverage. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude costs related to share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, are expected to track with GAAP operating expenses, with reconciling items unchanged from existing practice. Operating expense guidance does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items.

These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information on BeOne's operating performance. Adjustments to BeOne's GAAP figures exclude, as applicable, non-cash items such as share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization. Certain other special items or substantive events may also be included in the non-GAAP adjustments periodically when their magnitude is significant within the periods incurred. Non-GAAP adjustments are tax effected to the extent there is U.S. GAAP current tax expense. The Company currently records a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets, so there is no net impact recorded for deferred tax effects. BeOne maintains an established non-GAAP policy that guides the determination of what costs will be excluded in non-GAAP financial measures and the related protocols, controls and approval with respect to the use of such measures. BeOne believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP figures, can enhance an overall understanding of BeOne's operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are included with the intent of providing investors with a more complete understanding of BeOne's historical and expected financial results and trends and to facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the indicators BeOne's management uses for planning and forecasting purposes and measuring BeOne's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by BeOne may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

BeOne Medicines Announces Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results and Business Updates

Article content Second quarter total revenues increased 42% to $1.3 billion versus second quarter 2024 Global BRUKINSA revenues increased 49% to $950 million versus second quarter 2024 Reported diluted GAAP Earnings per American Depositary Share (ADS) of $0.84, non-GAAP diluted Earnings per ADS of $2.25 Anticipate 20+ milestones in next 18 months across hematology and solid tumor pipeline Article content SAN CARLOS, Calif. — BeOne Medicines Ltd. (NASDAQ: ONC; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company, today announced financial results and corporate updates from the second quarter of 2025. Article content 'Our strong second quarter performance reinforces our trajectory as a global oncology powerhouse and underscores our proven ability to deliver sustainable, long-term growth,' said John V. Oyler, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of BeOne. 'We are executing with purpose and advancing our mission to deliver transformative medicines to more patients worldwide. BRUKINSA, the backbone of our hematology franchise, continues to set the standard as the best-in-class BTK inhibitor with the most approved indications and market leader in the US, a position earned from superior efficacy, favorable safety, and positive patient outcomes across its five indications. Building on this momentum, our two additional Phase 3 hematology assets, BCL2 inhibitor sonrotoclax and BTK CDAC BGB-16673, have the potential to further expand our franchise leadership with pivotal data readouts and new trial initiations anticipated in the near-term. At our recent Investor R&D Day, we outlined a bold path forward with more than 20 expected R&D milestones in the next 18 months. This includes potentially promising advances across our expansive solid tumor pipeline, where we are building future global franchises targeting a range of highly prevalent cancers.' Article content Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Article content Revenue Article content for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.3 billion, compared to $929 million in the prior-year period driven primarily by growth in BRUKINSA (zanubrutinib) product sales in the U.S. and Europe. Article content Product Revenue Article content totaled $1.3 billion for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $921 million in the prior-year period. The increase in product revenue was primarily attributable to increased sales of BRUKINSA. The U.S. continued to be the Company's largest market, with product revenue of $685 million compared to $479 million in the prior-year period. In-licensed products from Amgen and TEVIMBRA (tislelizumab) also contributed to product revenue growth. Article content U.S. sales of BRUKINSA totaled $684 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 43% over the prior-year period driven primarily by robust demand growth across all indications and modest benefit due to net pricing. BRUKINSA continues to maintain its leading new patient share across the BTKi class due to its differentiated, best-in-class clinical profile. BRUKINSA sales in Europe totaled $150 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 85% compared to the prior-year period, driven by increased market share across all major European markets, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France and the UK. Sales of TEVIMBRA totaled $194 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing growth of 22% compared to the prior-year period. Article content Gross Margin Article content as a percentage of global product sales for the second quarter of 2025 was 87.4% compared to 85.0% in the prior-year period on a GAAP basis. The gross margin percentage increased due to a proportionally higher sales mix of global BRUKINSA compared to other products in our portfolio. Gross margin also benefited from cost of sales productivity improvements for both BRUKINSA and TEVIMBRA. On an adjusted basis, which does not include depreciation and amortization, gross margin as a percentage of product sales increased to 88.1% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 85.4% in the prior-year period. Article content The following table summarizes operating expenses for the first half of 2025: Article content increased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis primarily due to advancing preclinical programs into the clinic and early clinical programs into late stage, and offset by lower development upfront and milestone fees. Upfront fees and milestone payments related to in-process R&D for in-licensed assets totaled $0.5 million and $12 million in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Article content Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses Article content increased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the prior-year period on both a GAAP and adjusted basis due to continued investment in global commercial expansion, primarily in the U.S. and Europe. SG&A expenses as a percentage of product sales were 41% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 48% in the prior-year period. Article content Net Income/(Loss) and GAAP/Non-GAAP Earnings Per Share Article content GAAP net income for the second quarter of 2025 was $94 million, an increase of $215 million over the prior-year period loss, primarily attributable to revenue growth and improved operating leverage. Article content For the second quarter of 2025, basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.07 and $0.06 per share and $0.87 and $0.84 per American Depositary Share (ADS), respectively, compared to basic loss of $0.09 per share and $1.15 per ADS in the prior-year period. Article content Free Cash Flow Article content for the second quarter of 2025 was $220 million, an increase of $425 million over the prior-year period. Article content For further details on BeOne's Second Quarter 2025 Financial Statements, please see BeOne's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2025 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Article content BeOne has updated its full year 2025 revenue guidance and maintained its expense guidance. Guidance is summarized below: Article content BeOne's total revenue guidance for full year 2025 of $5.0 billion to $5.3 billion includes expectations for strong revenue growth driven by BRUKINSA's U.S. leadership position and continued global expansion in both Europe and other important rest of world markets. Gross margin percentage is expected to be in the mid- to high-80% range due to mix and production efficiencies as compared to 2024. BeOne's guidance for combined operating expenses on a GAAP basis includes expectations of investment to support growth in both commercial and research at a pace that continues to deliver meaningful operating leverage. Non-GAAP operating expenses, which exclude costs related to share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization expense, are expected to track with GAAP operating expenses, with reconciling items unchanged from existing practice. Operating expense guidance does not assume any potential new, material business development activity or unusual/non-recurring items.

With a growing global team of more than 11,000 colleagues spanning six continents, the Company is committed to radically improving access to medicines for far more patients who need them. Article content Forward-Looking Statements Article content This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws, including statements regarding: upcoming R&D milestones to be achieved by BeOne; the timing of clinical developments and data readouts; BeOne's expectations regarding continued global expansion and investment to support growth; BeOne's ability to bring transformative medicines to more patients worldwide; BeOne's future revenue, operating income, cash flow, free cash flow, operating expenses, and gross margin percentage; and BeOne's plans, commitments, aspirations and goals under the caption 'About BeOne'. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of various important factors, including BeOne's ability to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of its drug candidates; the clinical results for its drug candidates, which may not support further development or marketing approval; actions of regulatory agencies, which may affect the initiation, timing and progress of clinical trials and marketing approval; BeOne's ability to achieve commercial success for its marketed medicines and drug candidates, if approved; BeOne's ability to obtain and maintain protection of intellectual property for its medicines and technology; BeOne's reliance on third parties to conduct drug development, manufacturing, commercialization, and other services; BeOne's limited experience in obtaining regulatory approvals and commercializing pharmaceutical products; BeOne's ability to obtain additional funding for operations and to complete the development of its drug candidates and achieve and maintain profitability; and those risks more fully discussed in the section entitled 'Risk Factors' in BeOne's most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, as well as discussions of potential risks, uncertainties, and other important factors in BeOne's subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. All information in this press release is as of the date of this press release, and BeOne undertakes no duty to update such information unless required by law. BeOne's financial guidance is based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant uncertainties. Article content Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Article content BeOne provides certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted Operating Expenses, Adjusted Operating Loss, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Share and certain other non-GAAP income statement line items, each of which include adjustments to GAAP figures. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information on BeOne's operating performance. Adjustments to BeOne's GAAP figures exclude, as applicable, non-cash items such as share-based compensation, depreciation and amortization. Certain other special items or substantive events may also be included in the non-GAAP adjustments periodically when their magnitude is significant within the periods incurred. Non-GAAP adjustments are tax effected to the extent there is U.S. GAAP current tax expense. The Company currently records a valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets, so there is no net impact recorded for deferred tax effects. BeOne maintains an established non-GAAP policy that guides the determination of what costs will be excluded in non-GAAP financial measures and the related protocols, controls and approval with respect to the use of such measures. BeOne believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when considered together with the GAAP figures, can enhance an overall understanding of BeOne's operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures are included with the intent of providing investors with a more complete understanding of BeOne's historical and expected financial results and trends and to facilitate comparisons between periods and with respect to projected information. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among the indicators BeOne's management uses for planning and forecasting purposes and measuring BeOne's performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures used by BeOne may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Discover which Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia medications are expected to grab the market share @ Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Market Report Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Overview Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia is a rare, slow-growing type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by the excessive production of abnormal white blood cells that secrete large amounts of a monoclonal IgM protein. These abnormal cells accumulate in the bone marrow and can interfere with the normal production of blood cells. The exact cause of Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia is not fully understood, but it is believed to arise due to genetic mutations, most commonly in the MYD88 gene, and possibly immune system dysregulation. Risk factors may include age, male gender, family history, and certain inherited conditions. Symptoms of Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia can vary significantly and often develop gradually. Common clinical signs include fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, and swollen lymph nodes. The excess IgM protein can cause hyperviscosity syndrome, leading to headaches, vision problems, dizziness, and bleeding issues. Some patients may also experience neuropathy, cold sensitivity, or enlargement of the spleen and liver. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of blood tests, bone marrow biopsy, and molecular testing to identify MYD88 or CXCR4 mutations. Imaging may also be used to assess organ involvement. Early and accurate diagnosis is key to managing this indolent but complex hematologic malignancy.

The Waldenström macroglobulinemia treatment landscape is primarily led by BTK inhibitors such as IMBRUVICA and BRUKINSA, alongside rituximab-based regimens and BCL-2 inhibitors like VENETOCLAX, which serve as complementary options. These targeted therapies have revolutionized clinical outcomes by extending progression-free survival and enhancing response rates, while maintaining manageable side effects. BRUKINSA (zanubrutinib) from BeiGene represents a next-generation BTK inhibitor, engineered for improved selectivity and reduced off-target activity compared to earlier BTK inhibitors. It received U.S. FDA approval in 2021 for treating adults with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and has also been authorized by the EMA and other global regulatory bodies for use in this and other B-cell malignancies. IMBRUVICA (ibrutinib), developed by Janssen and AbbVie, was the first BTK inhibitor to gain FDA approval in 2015 for adult patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia. As a pioneering agent in its class, it transformed the treatment approach by disrupting B-cell signaling pathways that drive malignant cell growth. That same year, the European Commission also approved its use. Rituximab remains the most commonly used monoclonal antibody for treating Waldenström macroglobulinemia. It works by binding to the CD20 protein found on the surface of lymphoma cells, triggering their destruction. Administered via intravenous infusion in clinical settings, rituximab may be used as a standalone therapy or in combination with chemotherapy, targeted treatments, or other agents. Learn more about the Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia treatment options @ Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Treatment Guidelines Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Emerging Drugs and Companies The potential drugs in the pipeline include Iopofosine (Cellectar Biosciences), Nemtabrutinib (Merck Sharp & Dohme), Sonrotoclax (BeiGene), NX-5948 (Nurix Therapeutics), Lisaftoclax (Ascentage Pharma), TT-01488 (TransThera Biosciences), and others. Iopofosine is a small-molecule Phospholipid Drug Conjugate (PDC) engineered to deliver iodine-131 directly to cancer cells in a targeted manner. It was recently assessed in the pivotal Phase II CLOVER-WaM study involving patients with relapsed/refractory Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (R/R WM). The U.S. FDA has granted Fast Track Designation to iopofosine for use in patients with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia who have undergone at least two prior therapies. Furthermore, the drug has received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) for LPL/WM. In the European Union, the European Commission has granted ODD for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma and WM, along with PRIME designation specifically for WM, acknowledging its potential to address significant unmet clinical needs. In June 2025, the FDA also awarded Breakthrough Therapy Designation (BTD) to iopofosine I-131 for treating R/R WM. Nemtabrutinib is an experimental, reversible, non-covalent BTK inhibitor under investigation for its ability to block oncogenic B-cell receptor signaling. It is active against both wild-type BTK and BTK pathway mutations. Ongoing Phase II trials are evaluating its effectiveness in hematologic cancers, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. Unlike conventional BTK inhibitors, nemtabrutinib retains activity even against BTK proteins that have developed mutations. Sonrotoclax is a BH3 mimetic designed to inhibit BCL2, a protein that enables cancer cell survival. By mimicking natural signals that promote cell death, sonrotoclax induces apoptosis in B-cell malignancies. Preclinical and early clinical studies have demonstrated that it is a potent and selective BCL2 inhibitor, characterized by a short half-life and no accumulation in the body. It has shown encouraging clinical results across multiple B-cell cancers, with over 1,300 patients treated globally. The U.S. FDA has granted Fast Track Designation to sonrotoclax for treating Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia. The anticipated launch of these emerging Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia therapies are poised to transform the Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia market landscape in the coming years. As these cutting-edge Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia therapies continue to mature and gain regulatory approval, they are expected to reshape the Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia market landscape, offering new standards of care and unlocking opportunities for medical innovation and economic growth.

BeOne Medicines Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for Tablet Formulation of BRUKINSA ®

BASEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BeOne Medicines Ltd. (NASDAQ: ONC; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company, today announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency issued a positive opinion recommending approval of a new film-coated tablet formulation of BRUKINSA ® (zanubrutinib) for all approved indications. The CHMP positive opinion will now be reviewed by the European Commission, which will grant the marketing authorization for the tablet formulation in the European Union and in the European Economic Area countries Norway and Iceland. 'The CHMP's positive opinion of our new tablet formulation of BRUKINSA is an important step toward bringing this thoughtful, patient-centered innovation to people facing certain B-cell cancers across Europe,' said Giancarlo Benelli, Senior Vice President and Head of Europe, BeOne. 'We look forward to a potential approval later this year and remain committed to delivering our impactful medicines to more patients in the region.' The BRUKINSA tablets have been shown to be bioequivalent to the BRUKINSA capsules based on the results of two single-dose, open-label, randomized Phase 1 crossover studies in healthy subjects. The recommended dose of BRUKINSA remains – 320 mg daily. The BRUKINSA tablets are 160 mg each, allowing patients to halve their daily pill intake and take two tablets daily. The new tablet formulation maintains BRUKINSA's dosing flexibility by providing patients and prescribers with the option of once- or twice-daily dosing and is designed to simplify management of dose reductions as per label recommendation. Additionally, the BRUKINSA tablets are smaller than the capsules and have a film coat, which makes them easier to swallow. BeOne Medicines will begin to convert BRUKINSA from capsules to tablets in regions outside China in 2025 as part of our commitment to sustainable business practices, including reducing our impact on the environment. This adjustment will decrease the bottle size by ~70% while also enabling the shipment of this medication with reduced temperature controls, which we expect to reduce energy needs, greenhouse gas emissions, and global transport costs. Today's announcement follows the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the new tablet formulation of BRUKINSA for all five approved indications earlier this month. In the U.S., BRUKINSA is the leader in new patient starts for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) across all lines of therapy, and for the first time, has become the overall BTK inhibitor market share leader. 1 Important Safety Information The current European Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) of BRUKINSA is available from the website of the European Medicines Agency.

BeOne Medicines Showcases Breakthrough Data in CLL and MCL at EHA 2025

SAN CARLOS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BeOne Medicines Ltd. (NASDAQ: ONC; HKEX: 06160; SSE: 688235), a global oncology company, will present new clinical data from three cornerstone hematology assets at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress. Four oral presentations highlight the promising clinical activity of BeOne's next-generation BCL2 inhibitor sonrotoclax, BTK protein degrader BGB-16673, and the backbone of our hematology franchise, BTK inhibitor BRUKINSA (zanubrutinib), which has the broadest label globally of any approved BTK inhibitor. These data reinforce the company's strategic vision to redefine the standard of care for B-cell malignancies. 'The data presented at EHA 2025 underscore the strength of BeOne's comprehensive hematology pipeline, built on the success of BRUKINSA, the only BTK inhibitor to demonstrate superior progression-free survival over ibrutinib in a Phase 3 trial, 1 ' said Lai Wang, Ph.D. Global Head of R&D at BeOne. 'With our potentially best-in-class BCL2 inhibitor, sonrotoclax, and first-in-class BTK degrader, BGB-16673, we are advancing innovative therapies aimed at addressing resistance mechanisms and improving outcomes for patients with B-cell malignancies.' The data presented at EHA 2025 support the ongoing advancement of sonrotoclax and BGB-16673 into Phase 3 studies and lay the groundwork for BeOne's first regulatory submissions for these programs. The company's integrated development approach—anchored in differentiated mechanisms and translational science—positions its programs to address key areas of unmet need in hematologic oncology. 'While existing therapies have improved outcomes in CLL and related malignancies, many patients still relapse or develop resistance and continue to face limited options,' said Stephan Stilgenbauer, Professor of Medicine and Medical Director of the Comprehensive Cancer Center Ulm (CCCU), Head of the Early Clinical Trials Unit (ECTU), and Head of the Division of CLL Dept. of Internal Medicine III at Ulm University. 'The updated data presented at EHA underscore the potential of novel approaches, including BTK degradation and BCL2-based combinations, to overcome known mechanisms of resistance and expand treatment options for patients.' Sonrotoclax + BRUKINSA Demonstrates Deep Responses in CLL and MCL BeOne's data will highlight the emerging potential of its next-generation assets to address the unmet needs of patients with B-cell malignancies. Updated results from Phase 1 studies evaluating sonrotoclax in combination with BRUKINSA in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) and with R/R mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) demonstrated consistent, deep responses and a manageable safety profile. Sonrotoclax is well-positioned to improve key aspects of the BCL2 inhibitor class and has demonstrated robust and durable antitumor activity and a tolerable safety profile across all dose levels. Robust Early Results in CLL and WM with Potentially First-in-Class BTK Degrader As the most clinically advanced BTK degrader, BGB-16673 continues to show potential in patients with various hematological malignancies. Updated data from the ongoing Phase 1 CaDAnCe-101 study of BGB-16673 in R/R CLL/SLL and R/R Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM) showed substantial antitumor activity and a tolerable safety profile across heavily pretreated populations. BRUKINSA Monotherapy Showed Sustained OS and PFS Benefit Data from Arm D of the SEQUOIA Phase 3 trial will also be presented at the meeting (Abstract PS1566), demonstrating that treatment with BRUKINSA plus venetoclax has the potential to drive progression-free survival and overall deep and durable responses across the frontline CLL patient spectrum, including patients with high-risk mutational status. SEQUOIA Arm D investigated BRUKINSA plus venetoclax in 114 patients with treatment-naïve (TN) CLL / SLL with or without del(17p) and/or TP53 high-risk mutations. At a median follow-up of 31.2 months, the combination induced a high 24-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate of 92% (95% CI, 85-96%) and an impressive overall response rate (ORR) of 97%. The 24-month overall survival (OS) rate was 96% (95% CI, 90%-98%). Notably, these benefits were observed regardless of del(17p)/ TP53 mutational status. The safety profile of BRUKINSA was consistent with the results of prior studies with no new safety signals identified. Arm C of the SEQUOIA study investigated BRUKINSA monotherapy in patients with TN CLL / SLL and del(17p) mutations, representing the largest prospective cohort of CLL/SLL patients with del(17p), will be presented at EHA (Abstract: PS1565). At a median follow-up of over 5.5 years (65.8 months), most patients remained progression-free. Notably, at 60 months, 72.2% of patients who received BRUKINSA remained progression-free (95% CI, 62.4, 79.8). When adjusted for the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, 73.0% of patients in the cohort remained progression-free (95% CI, 63.3, 80.6) at 60 months. The 60-month OS rate was 85.1% (95% CI, 76.9, 90.6) and 87.0% (95% CI, 79.0, 92.1) when adjusted for COVID-19. At the time of data cut-off, the ORR was 97.3%, and 62.2% of patients were still receiving treatment with BRUKINSA. The safety profile of BRUKINSA was consistent with the results of prior studies with no new safety signals identified. BeOne will host an investor R&D Day on June 26 at 8:30 am ET covering our deep and broad global innovation pipeline and platforms, as well as the Company's vision, differentiated capabilities, and value creation drivers. The live webcast can be accessed from the investors section of BeOne's website at or An archived replay will be available to investors for 90 days following the event. About Sonrotoclax (BGB-11417) Sonrotoclax is designed to block the B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL2) protein, which is one of several proteins that help cancer cells survive. It is part of a group of drugs called BH3 mimetics, which mimic natural cell death signals. Studies in the lab and during early drug development have shown that sonrotoclax is a potent and specific inhibitor of BCL2 with a short half-life and no accumulation. Sonrotoclax has shown promising clinical activity across a range of B-cell malignancies, and more than 1,900 patients have been enrolled to date across the global development program. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted sonrotoclax Fast Track Designation for the treatment of adult patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM). About BGB-16673 BGB-16673 is an orally available Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) targeting protein degrader from BeOne's chimeric degradation activation compound (CDAC) platform. BGB-16673 is designed to promote the degradation, or breakdown, of both wildtype and mutant forms of BTK, including those that commonly result in resistance to BTK inhibitors in patients who experience progressive disease. BGB-16673 is the most advanced BTK protein degrader in the clinic, with an extensive global clinical development program. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Fast Track Designation to BGB-16673 for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), and adult patients with R/R mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). About BRUKINSA ® (zanubrutinib) BRUKINSA is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) designed to deliver complete and sustained inhibition of the BTK protein by optimizing bioavailability, half-life, and selectivity. With differentiated pharmacokinetics compared with other approved BTK inhibitors, BRUKINSA has been demonstrated to inhibit the proliferation of malignant B cells within a number of disease-relevant tissues. BRUKINSA has the broadest label globally of any BTK inhibitor and is the only BTK inhibitor to provide the flexibility of once or twice daily dosing. Additionally, BRUKINSA is also the only BTK inhibitor to demonstrate PFS superiority to a first-generation BTK inhibitor in a Phase 3 study.
