BeyondSpring Announces a Late-Breaking Poster Presentation of PROTECTIVE-2 Phase 3 Data Showing Plinabulin, in Combination with Pegfilgrastim, Reverses the Immune-Suppressive Effects of Pegfilgrastim and Offers Superior Prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, June 8, 2021

Compared to pegfilgrastim alone (n=110), the plinabulin and pegfilgrastim combination (n=111) showed decreased production of immature neutrophil band (p=0.0012), and decreased promyelocytes and myelocyte production (p=0.0488).

Key Points: 
  • Compared to pegfilgrastim alone (n=110), the plinabulin and pegfilgrastim combination (n=111) showed decreased production of immature neutrophil band (p=0.0012), and decreased promyelocytes and myelocyte production (p=0.0488).
  • Immature neutrophil band and promyelocytes and myelocytes are less functional defending against infection and have potentially deleterious immune suppression effects.
  • The Company has submitted New Drug Applications (NDA) for plinabulin in combination with pegfilgrastim as a treatment for the prevention of CIN for review in both the U.S. and China.
  • Treatment or prevention of CIN with G-CSF has been the standard of care since Neupogen was approved in 1991.
