  39. Mechanism of Action of ABT-199 • Many tumors, particularly lymphoid malignancies, are addicted to BCL-2 for survival. • ABT-199 is specific for BCL-2 and induces selective death of BCL-2-dependent tumor cells while sparing platelets, which depend primarily on BCL-XL for survival.

  40. ABT-199: A Potent and Selective BCL-2 Inhibitor • Oral, small molecule inhibitor of BCL-2 • Binds with high affinity to BCL-2 and with substantially lower affinity to other BCL-2 proteins (BCL-XL, BCL-W and MCL-1) • Demonstrated preclinical activity as a single agent in a wide range of hematologic cancer • Main toxicities reported in relapsed/refractory NHL: • Primarily Grade 1/2 (minimal Grade 3/4) • Diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, pyrexia, upper respiratory tract infection, neutropenia, cough • Antitumor activity in multiple NHL histologies, including 100% best response rate in MCL Davids MS et al.
