The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death of any cause.
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to disease progression(PD) or death from any cause.
To evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) of lisaftoclax in combination with BTKi compared with BTKi monotherapy in CLL/SLL patients previously treated with BTKi as determined by independent radiological review committee (IRC) using the iwCLL guidelines
DLT will be graded according to NCI CTCAE Version 5.0. DLT will be defined as clinically significant drug-related adverse events during cycle one.
MTD/RP2D will be determined based on DLTs observed during cycle one.
DLT will be defined based on the rate of drug-related grade 3-5 adverse events experienced within the first 6 weeks (2 cycles) of study treatment. These will be assessed via CTCAE version 5.0
MTD will be determined based on DLTs observed during the first 6 weeks (2 cycles) of study treatment

Lisaftoclax is an investigational small molecule being studied in hematologic malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma, higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, and relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. It is not yet approved and remains in clinical development.
Lisaftoclax targets Bcl-2, a protein that regulates apoptosis. By inhibiting Bcl-2, lisaftoclax is designed to restore the programmed cell death pathway in malignant cells. It is being evaluated both as a single agent and in combination with other therapies such as BTK inhibitors and azacytidine.
Lisaftoclax is being developed by Ascentage Pharma Group International, whose American Depositary Shares trade under the ticker AAPG. The company is running global Phase 3 trials for lisaftoclax in CLL/SLL and higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, as well as earlier-stage studies in acute myeloid leukemia.
Lisaftoclax is in Phase 3 clinical development. Three Phase 3 trials are currently recruiting: GLORA-4 in higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, a study combining lisaftoclax with acalabrutinib in newly diagnosed CLL/SLL, and a global CLL/SLL trial. A Phase 1 study in relapsed or refractory AML is also ongoing.
Lisaftoclax is being studied in four recruiting trials. Phase 3 trials include NCT06641414 in higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, NCT06319456 in newly diagnosed CLL/SLL, and NCT06104566 in CLL/SLL. A Phase 1 trial, NCT04501120, evaluates lisaftoclax alone and in combination in relapsed or refractory AML.
Yes, lisaftoclax is also known as APG-2575. The names refer to the same investigational Bcl-2 inhibitor. It is also described in combination regimens such as lisaftoclax plus a BTK inhibitor, reflecting its use alongside other agents in clinical trials.
