HUTCHMED Highlights SACHI Phase III Study Data Presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
— The all-oral chemotherapy-free combination of savolitinib plus osimertinib demonstrated significant PFS benefit with a favorable safety profile in the SACHI Phase III China study — — Webcast to be held at 8:30 am HKT on Tuesday, June 3 to discuss the data presented — HONG KONG and SHANGHAI and FLORHAM PARK, N.J., June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUTCHMED (China) Limited ('HUTCHMED') (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13) announces primary results from the interim analysis of the SACHI Phase III study. These results were presented in a late-breaking oral presentation on Sunday, June 1, 2025, during the American Society of Clinical Oncology ('ASCO') Annual Meeting in Chicago, USA. SACHI is a Phase III study of the savolitinib and osimertinib combination for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor ('EGFR') mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer ('NSCLC') with MET amplification after disease progression on first-line EGFR inhibitor therapy ( identifier NCT05015608). Title: Savolitinib combined with osimertinib versus chemotherapy in EGFR-mutant and MET-amplification advanced NSCLC after disease progression on EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor: Results from a randomized Phase III SACHI study Lead Author: Shun Lu, Shanghai Chest Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China Session: Oral Abstract Session: Lung Cancer - Non-Small Cell Metastatic Abstract Number: LBA8505 Date & Time: Sunday, June 1, 2025, 8:00 AM Central Daylight Time Location: Arie Crown Theater Prof. Shun Lu, Chief of the Shanghai Lung Cancer Center at Shanghai Chest Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University, and Principal Investigator of the SACHI study, said, 'The results from the SACHI Phase III study represent a significant advancement in the treatment of EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC with MET amplification. The savolitinib and osimertinib combination demonstrates promising efficacy in patients who have progressed on prior EGFR inhibitor therapy. These findings highlight the potential of this novel, chemotherapy-free combination to enable a continued oral regimen, offering a convenient and well-tolerated treatment option that addresses critical unmet needs for patients with this challenging disease.' The event will be held in English and can be accessed via A replay will also be available on the website shortly after the event. As of the interim analysis data cut-off of August 30, 2024, a total of 211 patients were randomized to receive the savolitinib and osimertinib combination or chemotherapy. In the intention to treat (ITT) population, the median progression-free survival ('PFS') assessed by investigator was 8.2 months with savolitinib plus osimertinib, compared to 4.5 months with chemotherapy (hazard ratio ['HR'] 0.34; 95% confidence interval ['CI'] 0.23-0.49; p < 0.0001). The independent review committee ('IRC') assessed median PFS was 7.2 months vs 4.2 months, respectively (HR 0.40; 95% CI 0.28-0.59; p < 0.0001). The investigator-assessed objective response rate (ORR) was 58% in the savolitinib plus osimertinib group compared to 34% for patients in the chemotherapy group. The disease control rate (DCR) was 89% vs 67% and the median duration of response (DoR) was 8.4 months vs 3.2 months, respectively. Overall survival was not mature at the time of the interim analysis. Efficacy outcomes in the third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor ('TKI')–treated patients were comparable with those in the intention-to-treat and third-generation EGFR-TKI–naïve populations. In the third generation EGFR-TKI–treated subgroup, the investigator-assessed and IRC-assessed median PFS were highly consistent, both at 6.9 vs 3.0 months (HR 0.32; p < 0.0001). The safety profile of the savolitinib and osimertinib combination was tolerable and no new safety signals were observed. Treatment-emergent adverse events of Grade 3 or above occurred in 57% of patients in the savolitinib plus osimertinib group compared to 57% for patients in the chemotherapy group, suggesting a favorable safety profile. In January 2025, the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) of SACHI has considered that the study has met the pre-defined primary endpoint of PFS in a planned interim analysis and as a result, enrollment into the study has concluded. Supported by data from SACHI, a New Drug Application (NDA) for the combination of savolitinib and osimertinib for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC with MET amplification after disease progression on first-line EGFR inhibitor therapy has been accepted and granted priority review by the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA). About Savolitinib Savolitinib is an oral, potent, and highly selective MET TKI that has demonstrated clinical activity in advanced solid tumors. MET is a tyrosine kinase receptor that has an essential role in normal cell development. Savolitinib blocks atypical activation of the MET receptor tyrosine kinase pathway that occurs because of mutations (such as exon 14 skipping alterations or other point mutations), gene amplification or protein overexpression. MET overexpression and/or amplification can lead to tumor growth and the metastatic progression of cancer cells, and is a known mechanism of acquired resistance to EGFR TKIs. The prevalence of MET depends on the sample type, detection method and assay cut-off used. Savolitinib is approved in China and is marketed under the brand name ORPATHYS® by our partner, AstraZeneca, for the treatment of adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC with MET exon 14 skipping alteration, representing the first selective MET inhibitor approved in China. It has been included in the National Reimbursement Drug List of China (NRDL) since March 2023. It is currently under clinical development for multiple tumor types, including lung, kidney, and gastric cancers as a single treatment and in combination with other medicines.

HUTCHMED Highlights Clinical Data to be Presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
HONG KONG and SHANGHAI and FLORHAM PARK, N.J., May 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HUTCHMED (China) Limited ('HUTCHMED') (Nasdaq/AIM:HCM; HKEX:13) today announces that new data from several studies of compounds discovered by HUTCHMED including savolitinib, ranosidenib, fruquintinib and surufatinib, will be presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology ('ASCO') Annual Meeting taking place on May 30 – June 3, 2025 in Chicago, USA. Results from the SACHI China Phase III study of savolitinib in combination with osimertinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic epidermal growth factor receptor ('EGFR') mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer ('NSCLC') with MET amplification after disease progression on EGFR inhibitor therapy will be presented at a late breaking oral presentation. SACHI had met the pre-defined primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) in a planned interim analysis. SACHI data supports the New Drug Application (NDA) for this oral-only treatment, which has been accepted and granted priority review in China. Further data with additional analysis stratified by brain metastasis status from a high MET overexpression and/or amplification treatment subset of the SAVANNAH Phase II study of the savolitinib and osimertinib combination in NSCLC patients harboring EGFR mutation and MET amplification or overexpression after progressing on osimertinib were reported. The savolitinib and osimertinib combination demonstrated better efficacy outcomes compared to savolitinib plus placebo. The combination showed promising central nervous system ('CNS') activity, with reduced CNS progression and fewer new CNS lesions. Results will be presented from the dose-escalation stage of the Phase I study of ranosidenib (HMPL-306), a novel, small-molecule, highly selective oral dual-inhibitor of both Isocitrate dehydrogenase ('IDH') 1 and IDH2 enzymes, being studied in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with IDH mutations. Results show that the compound was well tolerated, showing target inhibition and durable responses in patients. Efficacy signals were observed especially in the efficacy evaluated group of lower-grade glioma patients (N=14), with an objective response rate ('ORR') of 7.1% and a disease control rate ('DCR') of 100%. Results will also be presented from the sub-group analyses of the FRUSICA-1 open-label, single-arm, pivotal Phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fruquintinib plus sintilimab in previously treated advanced endometrial cancer (EMC) patients with pMMR (proficient mismatch repair) status. Efficacy findings for patients with serous carcinoma (N=27) were clinically meaningful and characterized by responses similar to those observed in full trial population (N=98), with an Independent Review Committee ('IRC')-assessed ORR of 37.0% and a DCR of 88.9%. The analysis of whether the response was affected by prior neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy ('NACT/ACT') showed durable and clinically meaningful responses regardless of whether the patient had received NACT/ACT. Results were comparable for patients with and without prior NACT/ACT, with an IRC-assessed ORR of 34.0% versus 31.4% and DCR of 85.1% versus 82.4%, respectively. Results from two subgroup analyses of a Phase IV study of fruquintinib involving 2,798 colorectal cancer patients in China will be presented. In the subgroup analysis evaluating the safety of fruquintinib as monotherapy and in combination therapy, fruquintinib demonstrated a manageable safety profile in both groups. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) of Grade 3 or above occurred in 23.94% in the fruquintinib monotherapy group and 26.06% in the combination therapy group with other anti-cancer treatments. The most common treatment related adverse events (TRAE) of any grade in both groups were palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPES) and hypertension. The combination therapy group exhibited a longer treatment duration, potentially indicating improved patient outcomes. In the subgroup analysis by age, the safety of fruquintinib was assessed in younger (age <50) and late-elderly (age ≥75) patients. The safety profile was comparable across both age groups, with younger patients receiving more intensive treatment. Combination therapy with fruquintinib also showed a longer duration than monotherapy in both age subgroups, which may suggest improved survival potential.
