‒ Total Revenue increased 37% to $33,144m, with growth coming from all disease areas, and from the addition of Alexion, which was incorporated into the Group's results from 21 July 2021
‒ Oncology Total Revenue increased 24%, inclusive of milestone payments from MSD[6] for Lynparza. Oncology Product Sales increased 20%. Total Revenue from R&I[7] increased 4%, CVRM[8] increased 19%[9] and Rare Disease increased 10%9
‒ Core Gross Margin of 81%, up six percentage points at CER, reflecting the lower revenue from initial Vaxzevria contracts and the increased share of specialty care medicines
‒ Core Total Operating Expense increased 26%, reflecting the addition of Alexion, continued investment in new launches and the pipeline, to deliver sustainable long-term growth
‒ Core Operating Margin of 32%, up six percentage points at CER, benefitting from favourable phasing and product mix
‒ Core EPS increased 52% to $5.28
‒ FY 2022 Core EPS at constant exchange rates now expected to increase by a high twenties to low thirties percentage, vs previous guidance of a mid-to-high twenties increase. At actual exchange rates, FY 2022 Core EPS growth is anticipated to be impacted by a currency headwind[10] of a mid-to-high single-digit percentage, versus previous guidance of a mid single-digit headwind
‒ Key data: Positive Phase III read-outs for danicopan in PNH-EVH[11] (ALPHA) and for capivasertib in 2nd-line HR-positive, metastatic breast cancer (CAPItello-291)
‒ Key regulatory approvals: 19 approvals in major markets since H1 2022 results, including US approvals for Enhertu in HER2[12]-low breast cancer (DESTINY-Breast04) and advanced NSCLC[13] (DESTINY-Lung02), Imjudo and Imfinzi in advanced liver cancer (HIMALAYA), Imfinzi in advanced biliary tract cancer (TOPAZ‑1); EU approval for Beyfortus for the prevention of RSV[14] lower respiratory tract disease (MELODY/MEDLEY); EU and Japan approvals for Ultomiris in gMG[15] (CHAMPION-MG), Tezspire in severe asthma (NAVIGATOR) and Lynparza in early breast cancer (OlympiA)
‒ Other regulatory milestones: US Priority Review for Lynparza for 1st-line metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (PROpel)
"AstraZeneca continues to see the benefit of our sustained investment in R&D, with 19 major regulatory approvals since our last earnings call.
After a strong performance in the year to date, we have increased our Core EPS guidance for the full year 2022. Additionally, recent encouraging data for several of our pipeline programmes have given us the confidence to proceed with additional late-stage clinical trials as we maintain our focus on delivery of our growth ambitions.
I would also like to highlight the announcement at COP27 to accelerate the delivery of our net zero strategy. Our company intends to lead by example on this increasingly important objective for the world."
The Company updates its FY 2022 guidance at CER, due to the strong performance in the year to date. The guided range for FY 2022 Core EPS has been increased to a high twenties to low thirties percentage; the final outcome within that range will depend on the timing of Evusheld deliveries and collaboration milestones linked to regulatory events.
At actual exchange rates, it is anticipated that FY 2022 Total Revenue growth will also be impacted by a currency headwind of a mid single-digit percentage, and that FY 2022 Core EPS growth will be impacted by a currency headwind of a mid-to-high single-digit percentage (see 'Currency impact', below).
Total Revenue is expected to increase by a low twenties percentage (unchanged)
Core EPS is expected to increase by a high twenties to low thirties percentage
(previously mid-to-high twenties percentage)
Other elements of the Income Statement are expected to be broadly in line with the indications issued in the Company's H1 2022 results announcement (29 July 2022).
AstraZeneca continues to recognise geopolitical and supply chain uncertainties on overall business performance. Variations in performance between quarters can be expected to continue.
The Company is unable to provide guidance on a Reported basis because AstraZeneca cannot reliably forecast material elements of the Reported result, including any fair value adjustments arising on acquisition-related liabilities, intangible asset impairment charges and legal settlement provisions. Please refer to the cautionary statements section regarding forward-looking statements at the end of this announcement.
The growth numbers in the guidance above are provided at CER, based on the average exchange rates through 2021.
If foreign-exchange rates for November to December 2022 were to remain at the spot rates seen on 31 October 2022, it is anticipated that FY 2022 Total Revenue would incur a mid single-digit adverse impact versus the performance at CER, and FY 2022 Core EPS would incur a mid-to-high single-digit adverse impact (previously a mid single-digit adverse impact).
The Company's foreign-exchange rate sensitivity analysis is provided in Table 17.

In October 2022, AstraZeneca entered a definitive agreement to acquire LogicBio Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: LOGC), a pioneering genomic medicine company. The proposed acquisition aims to rapidly accelerate Alexion's growth in genomic medicines through LogicBio's unique technology, experienced rare disease R&D team, and expertise in pre-clinical development.
AstraZeneca attended COP27, where the Sustainable Markets Initiative Health Systems Task Force collectively made significant commitments to tackle the climate crisis, setting a benchmark for others to drive action at scale. Some commitment highlights include supply chain emissions, which drive approximately 50% of healthcare emissions: the Task Force members have committed to align on a set of common supplier standards and jointly explore green transportation corridors. The patient care pathway drives approximately 45% of healthcare emissions, and the Task Force has committed to build an end-to-end care pathway emissions standard to measure emissions across the care pathway, as well as align and publish product-level lifecycle management assessment data to increase transparency on emissions. The Task Force has also committed to leverage digital health solutions to decarbonise clinical trials.
A conference call and webcast for investors and analysts will begin today, 10 November 2022, at 11:45 GMT. Details can be accessed via astrazeneca.com.
The Company intends to publish its full year and fourth quarter results on Thursday 9 February 2022.
All narrative on growth and results in this section is based on actual exchange rates, and financial figures are in US$ millions ($m), unless stated otherwise. Unless stated otherwise, the performance shown in this announcement covers the nine-month period to 30 September 2022 ('the year to date' or 'YTD 2022') compared to the nine-month period to 30 September 2021 (YTD 2021), or the three-month period to 30 September 2022 ('the quarter' or 'Q3 2022') compared to the three-month period to 30 September 2021 (Q3 2021).
Core financial measures, EBITDA, Net Debt, CER, Initial Collaboration Revenue and Ongoing Collaboration Revenue are non-GAAP financial measures because they cannot be derived directly from the Group's Interim financial statements. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when provided in combination with Reported results, provide investors and analysts with helpful supplementary information to understand better the financial performance and position of the Group on a comparable basis from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Core financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain significant items, such as:
‒ Amortisation and impairment of intangible assets, including impairment reversals but excluding any charges relating to IT assets
‒ Charges and provisions related to restructuring programmes, which includes charges that relate to the impact of restructuring programmes on capitalised IT assets as well as Post Alexion Acquisition Group Review items
‒ Alexion acquisition-related items, primarily fair value adjustments on acquired inventories and fair value impact of replacement employee share awards
‒ Other specified items, principally the imputed finance charge relating to contingent consideration on business combinations, legal settlements and the one off deferred tax credit arising from the internal reorganisation to integrate Alexion
‒ The tax effects of the adjustments above are excluded from the Core Tax charge
Details on the nature of Core financial measures are provided on page 54 of the Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2021.
Reference should be made to the Reconciliation of Reported to Core financial measures table included in the financial performance section in this announcement.
Gross Margin, previously termed Gross Profit Margin, is the percentage by which Product Sales exceeds the Cost of sales, calculated by dividing the difference between the two by the sales figure. The calculation of Reported and Core Gross Margin excludes the impact of Collaboration Revenue and any associated costs, thereby reflecting the underlying performance of Product Sales.
EBITDA is defined as Reported Profit before tax after adding back Net Finance Expense, results from Joint Ventures and Associates and charges for Depreciation, Amortisation and Impairment. Reference should be made to the Reconciliation of Reported Profit before tax to EBITDA included in the financial performance section in this announcement.
Net Debt is defined as Interest-bearing loans and borrowings and Lease liabilities, net of Cash and cash equivalents, Other investments, and net derivative financial instruments. Reference should be made to Note 3 'Net Debt' included in the Notes to the Interim financial statements in this announcement.
Ongoing Collaboration Revenue is defined as Collaboration Revenue excluding Initial Collaboration Revenue (which is defined as Collaboration Revenue that is recognised at the date of completion of an agreement or transaction, in respect of upfront consideration). Ongoing Collaboration Revenue comprises, among other items, royalties, milestone revenue and profit-sharing income. Reference should be made to the Collaboration Revenue table in this Operating and financial review.
The Company strongly encourages investors and analysts not to rely on any single financial measure, but to review AstraZeneca's financial statements, including the Notes thereto, and other available Company reports, carefully and in their entirety.
Due to rounding, the sum of a number of dollar values and percentages in this announcement may not agree to totals.

Total Revenue of $69m in the year to date (YTD 2021: $1m) was driven by sales acceleration in the US, where Saphnelo achieved NBRx leadership in the i.v.[60] segment for SLE[61] and received a permanent J-code facilitating reimbursement. Growth was further supported by a strong launch in Germany and steady growth in Japan.
Tezspire is approved in the US, EU and Japan for the treatment of severe asthma without biomarker or phenotypic limitation. Total Revenue of $42m in the year to date (YTD 2021: $nil) was comprised entirely of Collaboration Revenue, and reflected the strong early launch performance in the US. Amgen records sales in the US and AstraZeneca records its share of gross profits in the US as Collaboration Revenue.

EBITDA of $6,663m in the year to date (YTD 2021: $5,686m) has been negatively impacted by the $3,175m (YTD 2021: $1,044m) unwind of inventory fair value uplift recognised on the acquisition of Alexion. EBITDA of $2,579m in the quarter (Q3 2021: $1,114m) has been negatively impacted by the $857m (Q3 2021: $1,044m) unwind of inventory fair value uplift recognised on the acquisition of Alexion. The unwind of inventory fair value is expected to depress EBITDA over the year in line with associated revenues, and by a smaller amount in 2023.

Profit and Loss drivers
‒ The Gross Margin (Reported and Core) in the year to date was impacted by:
‒ Positive mix effects: the increased contribution from Rare Disease and Oncology medicines had a positive impact on the Gross Margin
‒ Negative mix effects: sales of Vaxzevria and medicines with profit-sharing arrangements (primarily Lynparza) had a dilutive impact on the Gross Margin
‒ Pricing pressure relating to procurement programmes in China
‒ Reported Gross Profit was also impacted by the unwind of the fair value adjustment to Alexion inventories at the date of acquisition. The fair value uplift is expected to unwind through Reported Cost of Sales in line with associated revenues, and in YTD 2022, the impact of the fair value uplift unwind on Cost of Sales was $3,175m (YTD 2021: $1,044m)
‒ Currency fluctuations had a small positive impact on Gross Margin in the year to date. Currency fluctuations may have a positive or negative impact on Gross Margin in future quarters
‒ Variations in Gross Margin performance between periods can be expected to continue
‒ Reported and Core R&D Expense was impacted by:
‒ The acquisition of Alexion in July 2021
‒ Recent positive data read outs for several high priority medicines that ungated late-stage Oncology trials
‒ The advancement of a number of mid-stage clinical development programmes in BioPharmaceuticals
‒ Investment in platforms, new technology and capabilities to enhance R&D productivity
‒ The decrease in Reported R&D Expense is primarily due to the prior year including an impairment charge of $1,172m, recognised in Q3 2021 on an intangible asset related to the acquisition of Ardea Biosciences, Inc.
‒ The increase in Reported and Core SG&A Expense was driven by:
‒ The acquisition of Alexion
‒ Market development activities for recent launches
‒ Reported SG&A Expense was also impacted by amortisation of intangible assets related to the Alexion acquisition and other acquisitions and collaborations, and a $775m legal settlement with Chugai
‒ Reported Other Operating Income of $325m consisted primarily of royalties and disposal proceeds on small divestments, including the divestment of rights to Plendil in the second quarter
‒ In YTD 2021, Reported Other Operating Income of $1,345m included $776m of divestment gains from AstraZeneca's share of Viela Bio, Inc. and $309m from the commercial rights to Crestor in over 30 countries in Europe (excluding UK and Spain)
‒ The increase in Reported and Core Net Finance Expense in the year to date was driven by financing costs on debt for the Alexion transaction , with a reduction in the discount unwind on acquisition-related liabilities, including the Diabetes Alliance which impacted Reported Net Finance Expense
‒ In Q3 2022, the Net Finance Expense was also impacted by rising interest rates
‒ The effective Reported Tax Rate for the nine months to 30 September 2022 was (39%) and the Core tax rate was 18%, and (24%) and 17% respectively in the nine months to 30 September 2021
‒ The Reported Tax Rate for the nine months included a one-time favourable net adjustment of $883m to deferred taxes arising from an internal reorganisation to integrate the Alexion organisation which took place in the quarter. The legal entity reorganisation did not result in any corporate income tax payable however did result in an estimated one-off deferred tax adjustment of $883m at Q3 to reflect the substantively enacted tax effects which would arise in impacted jurisdictions going forwards. A further $47m credit movement is included in OCI. This adjustment is based upon full-year forecast estimates and therefore may change for the full year results. This adjustment was excluded from the Core tax charge
‒ 2021 Reported and Core Tax Rates were impacted by one-off items in 2021, including the non-taxable gain on the divestment of Viela and updates to estimates of prior period tax liabilities following settlements with tax authorities
‒ The net cash paid for the year to date was $1,335m (YTD 2021: $1,198m) representing 77% of Reported Profit before tax (YTD 2021: 323%). The cash tax amount increased due to the increase in profits and the impact of Non-core charges on the level of Reported Profit before tax and effects of US rules around deferral of tax relief on R&D costs. The cash tax rate decreased compared to 2021 due to the impact in YTD 2021 of low Reported Profit before tax
‒ The Reported Tax rate of (39%) was lower than the Core Tax Rate of 18% primarily due to the impact of the aforementioned internal restructuring. YTD 2022 Reported and Core Tax rates also benefited from the geographical mix of profits and favourable adjustments to prior year tax liabilities in a number of major jurisdictions
‒ On 20 July 2022, the UK Government issued draft legislation in relation to the new global minimum tax framework, expected to be brought into effect in the UK from 2024. The UK corporation tax rate continues to be expected to increase to 25%, effective April 2023. The Company is currently assessing potential impact of these draft rules upon its financial statements

The increase in Net Cash Inflow from Operating Activities of $2,865m primarily reflected an underlying
improvement in business performance, including the contribution from Alexion.
The Reported Operating Profit of $2,663m in the period includes a negative impact of $3,175m relating to the unwind of the inventory fair value uplift recognised on the acquisition of Alexion. This is offset by a corresponding item (positive impact of $3,175m) in Decrease in Working Capital and Short-term Provisions. Overall, the unwind of the fair value uplift has no impact on Net Cash Inflow from Operating Activities.
The change in Working Capital and Short-term Provisions of $1,395m, whilst being positively impacted by the aforementioned inventory fair value uplift unwind, has been adversely impacted by the reduction of Vaxzevria working capital balances predominantly within Trade and other payables.
Capital Expenditure amounted to $719m in the year to date (YTD 2021: $768m) including expenditure relating to Alexion. The Company anticipates stable Capital Expenditure in FY 2022 relative to FY 2021.

This section covers R&D events and milestones that have occurred since the prior results announcement on 29 July 2022, up to and including events announced on 9 November 2022.
A comprehensive view of AstraZeneca's pipeline of medicines in human trials can be found in the latest clinical trials appendix, available on www.astrazeneca.com/investor-relations. The clinical trials appendix includes tables with details of the ongoing clinical trials for AstraZeneca medicines and new molecular entities in the pipeline.
AstraZeneca presented new data across its diverse portfolio of cancer medicines at two major medical congresses during the quarter: the IASLC 2022 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) in August, and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) in September. At ESMO, 75 abstracts featured 15 approved and potential new medicines from AstraZeneca across 13 different tumour types.
Significant new trials in Oncology initiated during the period included TROPION-Lung07 a Phase III trial of datopotamab deruxtecan in 1st-line PDL1[71]-low NSCLC patients with PD-L1 TPS[72]<50% and LATIFY, a Phase III trial of ceralasertib in combination with Imfinzi in NSCLC patients whose disease has progressed on or after prior anti-PD-L1 therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy.
At WCLC in August, preliminary results from the SAVANNAH Phase II trial showed that Tagrisso plus Orpathys demonstrated an ORR[73] of 49% (95% CI[74] 39-59%) in patients with EGFRm NSCLC with high levels of MET overexpression and/or amplification, defined as IHC90+[75] and/or FISH10+[76], whose disease progressed on treatment with Tagrisso. This combination is being further evaluated in the SAFFRON Phase III trial.
During the period, Tagrisso was approved in Japan for the adjuvant treatment of patients with EGFRm NSCLC after surgery based on the results from the global ADAURA Phase III trial.
Updated results from follow-up of the ADAURA Phase III trial presented at ESMO in September demonstrated a sustained, clinically meaningful improvement in disease free survival compared to placebo in the adjuvant treatment of patients with early-stage (IB, II and IIIA) EGFRm NSCLC after complete tumour resection, with nearly three in four patients treated with adjuvant Tagrisso alive and disease-free at four years.
During the period, Imfinzi was approved in the US for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer, in combination with chemotherapy, based on the results from the TOPAZ-1 Phase III trial. In October, Imfinzi in combination with a single priming dose of Imjudo (tremelimumab) was approved in the US for the 1st-line treatment of patients with unresectable HCC based on the results from the HIMALAYA Phase III trial.
At ESMO, updated TOPAZ-1 results for Imfinzi plus chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) in biliary tract cancer showed enhanced clinical efficacy after an additional 6.5 months of follow-up, demonstrating a 24% reduction in the risk of death versus chemotherapy alone (based on a hazard ratio of 0.76; 95% CI, 0.64-0.91). Updated median OS[77] was 12.9 months versus 11.3 with chemotherapy. More than two times as many patients were estimated to be alive at two years versus chemotherapy alone (23.6% versus 11.5%).
In August, Lynparza was approved in the European Union for the adjuvant treatment of patients with gBRCAm high-risk early breast cancer and in Japan for BRCAm patients in the same setting based on the results from the OlympiA Phase III trial.
During the period, the Company and MSD received US regulatory submission acceptance with Priority Review for Lynparza in combination with abiraterone and prednisone or prednisolone for the treatment of adult patients with mCRPC based on the PROpel Phase III trial.
At ESMO, AstraZeneca presented positive long-term follow-up results from the PAOLA-1 Phase III trial in the pre-specified descriptive analysis of the HRD-positive subgroup, and from the SOLO-1 Phase III trial in patients with BRCA mutations of Lynparza with or without bevacizumab. Both trials showed clinically meaningful improvements in OS. Further results showed PFS[78] in combination with bevacizumab for HRD-positive patients, versus active comparator, bevacizumab, and as monotherapy for patients with BRCA mutations, versus placebo, respectively. Five-year follow-up of the PAOLA-1 Phase III trial demonstrated that 65% of HRD-positive patients treated with Lynparza plus bevacizumab were alive at five years versus 48.4% treated with bevacizumab and placebo. Data from the SOLO-1 Phase III trial demonstrated 67% of advanced ovarian cancer patients with BRCA mutations treated with Lynparza were alive at seven years versus 47% on placebo.
In September, Lynparza was approved in China for the maintenance treatment of HRD-positive patients with advanced ovarian cancer who are in complete or partial response to 1st-line platinum-based chemotherapy in combination with bevacizumab, based on the PAOLA-1 Phase III trial.
During the period, AstraZeneca and MSD announced the voluntary withdrawal of the Lynparza indication for patients with gBRCAm advanced ovarian cancer who have been treated with three or more lines of chemotherapy. The decision to withdraw was made in consultation with the US FDA and based on a recent subgroup analysis that indicated a potential detrimental effect on OS for Lynparza compared to the chemotherapy control arm in the subgroup of patients who had received three or more lines of chemotherapy.
Calquence
In August, AstraZeneca's new maleate tablet formulation of Calquence was approved in the US for all current indications, including adult patients with CLL, SLL[79] and for patients with relapsed or refractory MCL[80], under accelerated approval based on results from the ELEVATE-PLUS trials. The tablet can be taken with gastric acid-reducing agents, including proton pump inhibitors, antacids and H2-receptor antagonists.
In August, AstraZeneca and Daiichi Sankyo's Enhertu was approved in the US for the treatment of patients with unresectable or metastatic HER2-low (IHC 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-) breast cancer who have received a prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting or developed disease recurrence during or within six months of completing adjuvant chemotherapy. The approval by the US FDA was based on positive results from the DESTINY-Breast04 Phase III trial.
During the period, Enhertu was also approved in the US for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic NSCLC whose tumours have activating HER2 mutations and who have received a prior systemic therapy. The accelerated approval by the US FDA was based on the results of the DESTINY-Lung02 Phase II trial.
In August, positive high-level results from the DESTINY-Breast02 Phase III trial of Enhertu versus physician's choice of treatment showed the trial met the primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS in patients with HER2-positive unresectable and/or metastatic breast cancer previously treated with trastuzumab emtansine. The trial also met the key secondary endpoint of improved OS.
At WCLC in August, initial results from the TROPION-Lung02 Phase Ib trial demonstrated promising clinical activity and a tolerable safety profile for Dato-DXd in combination with pembrolizumab with or without platinum chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated or pre-treated, advanced or metastatic NSCLC.
The data showed an ORR in the overall population of 37% (median follow-up of 6.5 months) in patients treated with Dato-DXd and pembrolizumab (doublet therapy) and an ORR of 41% (median follow-up of 4.4 months) in patients receiving Dato-DXd, pembrolizumab and platinum chemotherapy (triplet therapy). A DCR[81] of 84% was seen with both the doublet and triplet combination therapy in the overall population that comprised both 1st-line and 2nd-line settings.
In previously untreated patients, ORRs of 62% (eight of the 13 patients receiving doublet therapy) and 50% (10 of 20 patients receiving triplet therapy) were observed. Eight partial responses were seen in patients receiving doublet therapy and 10 partial responses (three pending confirmation) were seen in patients receiving triplet therapy. A DCR of 100% was observed with doublet therapy and a DCR of 90% was observed with triplet therapy.
In October, positive high-level results from the SERENA-2 Phase II trial showed that AstraZeneca's next-generation oral selective estrogen receptor degrader camizestrant met the primary endpoint of demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful PFS benefit at both 75mg and 150mg dose levels versus Faslodex (fulvestrant) 500mg in post-menopausal patients with estrogen receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, previously treated with endocrine therapy.
In October, positive high-level results from the CAPItello-291 Phase III trial showed that AstraZeneca's AKT[82] inhibitor capivasertib in combination with Faslodex (fulvestrant) demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS versus placebo plus Faslodex in patients with HR-positive, HER2-low or HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, following recurrence or progression on or after endocrine therapy (with or without a CDK4/6[83] inhibitor).
During the quarter, AstraZeneca informed Innate Pharma SA that the INTERLINK-1 Phase III trial will be discontinued, as a result of the trial not meeting a pre-defined threshold for efficacy at a planned futility interim analysis, with the decision being recommended by an Independent Data Monitoring Committee. INTERLINK-1 evaluated monalizumab in combination with cetuximab versus cetuximab in patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have been previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and PD-L1 inhibitors.
Full data from the DELIVER Phase III trial was presented at the European Society of Cardiology Congress in August 2022. In the trial, which evaluated Farxiga in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, Farxiga reduced the composite outcome of cardiovascular death or worsening of heart failure by 18% with all individual components contributing to the superiority of the primary endpoint. The findings were consistent across key subgroups examined and extend the benefits of Farxiga to the full spectrum of patients with heart failure irrespective of left ventricular ejection fraction status. The trial also showed a symptom benefit in patient-reported outcomes measured by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire total symptom score. In a separate pre-specified pooled analysis from the Phase III DAPA-HF and DELIVER trials, Farxiga demonstrated reduction in cardiovascular death by 14% and reduction in death from any cause by 10% in patients with heart failure irrespective of ejection fraction.
In September 2022, Forxiga was approved for the treatment of chronic kidney disease in China based on the data from the DAPA-CKD trial.
In the period, AstraZeneca and Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. presented data from the NEURO-TTransform Phase III trial in patients with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloid polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) at the International Symposium on Amyloidosis. In the trial, eplontersen demonstrated a significant and clinically meaningful change from baseline for co-primary and secondary endpoints at 35 weeks compared to external placebo group. On the co-primary endpoint of serum transthyretin concentration from baseline, eplontersen showed an 81.2% reduction.
AstraZeneca presented new data across the R&I portfolio at the European Respiratory Society (ERS) International Congress 2022, with a total of 78 accepted abstracts, including 14 late breakers and 21 oral presentations.
In September, Tezspire was approved in the EU as an add-on maintenance treatment in patients 12 years and older with severe asthma who are inadequately controlled with high dose inhaled corticosteroids plus another medicinal product. Also in September, Tezspire was approved in Japan for the treatment of bronchial asthma in patients with severe or refractory disease in whom asthma symptoms cannot be controlled with mid- or high-dose inhaled corticosteroids and other long-term maintenance therapies.
Results from the DESTINATION Phase III extension trial were presented at ERS 2022. Tezspire demonstrated an overall long-term safety and efficacy profile consistent with the PATHWAY Phase II and NAVIGATOR Phase III trials, sustained over 104 weeks in a broad population of severe asthma patients regardless of biomarker status.
Additional analyses of the CASCADE Phase II and NAVIGATOR Phase III trials were also presented at the ERS International Congress 2022. The CASCADE Phase II mechanistic trial showed Tezspire as the first biologic to reduce mucus plugging compared to placebo. Reduction in mucus score with Tezspire was correlated with improvements in lung function. Mucus plugging as a clinical feature may predict the risk of future exacerbations and lung function decline in severe asthma.
During the period, AstraZeneca discontinued the Phase III MAHALE trial for the treatment of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, due to strategic portfolio prioritisation; this discontinuation was not related to any safety or efficacy findings.
In October 2022, AstraZeneca disclosed results from the MESSINA Phase III trial, evaluating Fasenra for the treatment of eosinophilic esophagitis. In the trial, Fasenra did not meet one of the two dual-primary endpoints, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement in histological disease remission but not in dysphagia symptoms compared to placebo. No new safety concerns were identified. The company will continue to analyse the complete data set and results will be shared at an upcoming medical meeting.
Data from the ACCORD-2 Phase II trial examined tozorakimab, in patients hospitalised with COVID-19. Results showed that patients receiving tozorakimab on top of standard of care had a 32 percent relative risk reduction in respiratory failure and death, this increased to 57% in IL-33 high patients (IL-33 high was defined as a baseline IL-33 level of >30.15 U/ml). This data suggests tozorakimab may be a novel therapy for patients with acute respiratory failure.
In November 2022, Beyfortus was approved in the EU for the prevention of RSV lower respiratory tract disease in newborns and infants during their first RSV season. The European Commission is the first regulatory body to grant approval to Beyfortus. The approval was based on results from the Beyfortus clinical development programme, including the MELODY Phase III, MEDLEY Phase II/III and Phase IIb trials.
In August 2022, Evusheld was granted Special Approval for Emergency in Japan for adults and adolescents for both prevention (pre-exposure prophylaxis) and treatment of symptomatic disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. In prevention, Evusheld is approved for use in those whom SARS-CoV-2 vaccination is not recommended and who may have an inadequate response to a COVID-19 vaccine due to immunodeficiencies. Recipients of Evusheld for prevention should not be currently infected with or have had recent known exposure to a person infected with SARS-CoV-2. In treatment, Evusheld is approved for those with risk factors for severe SARS-CoV-2 infection who do not require supplemental oxygen. The decision marked the first global marketing approval for Evusheld as a treatment for COVID-19.
In September 2022, Evusheld was approved in the EU for the treatment of adults and adolescents with COVID - 19 who do not require supplemental oxygen and who are at increased risk of progressing to severe COVID - 19. Both the Japan and EU treatment approvals were based on results from the TACKLE Phase III treatment trial.
In October 2022, the FDA updated the authorised Fact Sheets for Evusheld to inform health care providers and individuals that Evusheld may not be effective at preventing COVID-19 caused by SARSCoV-2 viral variants that Evusheld does not neutralise.
In October 2022, Vaxzevria had its conditional marketing authorisation in the EU converted into a standard marketing authorisation by the EMA. The standard marketing authorisation covers the use of Vaxzevria in both a primary vaccination series, and as a third dose booster.
As the primary vaccination needs of the US are being met already, AstraZeneca has decided that it will not submit a Biologics Licence Application for Vaxzevria in the US. The Company will continue to focus its efforts on ensuring availability of Vaxzevria elsewhere around the world, including submissions for its use as a booster.
During the period, AstraZeneca received results from the GBS-301 Phase III trial, conducted in Japan, evaluating Soliris on top of standard-of-care IVIg[84] as a treatment for Guillain-Barré Syndrome. Soliris, on top of IVIg, did not achieve statistical significance on the primary endpoint of time to first reaching a Hughes FG s core ≤ 1.
During the period, Soliris received full approval in China for the treatment of PNH and aHUS.
In August 2022, Ultomiris was approved in Japan for the treatment of adult patients with gMG who are anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody-positive and whose symptoms are difficult to control with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin therapy or plasmapheresis.
In September 2022, Ultomiris was approved in Europe as an add-on to standard therapy for the treatment of adult patients with gMG who are anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody-positive.
Approvals by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the European Commission, were based on positive results from the CHAMPION-MG Phase III trial which sho wed that Ultomiris was superior to placebo in the primary endpoint of change from baseline in the Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living Profile (MG-ADL) total score at Week 26, a patient-reported scale that assesses patients' abilities to perform daily activities.
During the period, AstraZeneca discontinued the Phase III trial for Ultomiris in complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy, due to strategic portfolio prioritisation. This discontinuation was not related to any safety or efficacy findings.
In October 2022, AstraZeneca presented new data showing significant advances for the treatment of anti-aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD at the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis Congress based on results from the Ultomiris CHAMPION-NMOSD Phase III trial. These new data and insights underscored the critical role of C5 inhibition in treating AQP4 antibody-positive NMOSD which, when treated with Ultomiris, the first and only long-acting C5 inhibitor, demonstrated zero relapses with a median treatment duration of 73 weeks.
In September, Koselugo was approved in Japan for paediatric patients with NF1-PN.
During the period, the Company announced that danicopan, an add-on to Ultomiris or Soliris, met the primary endpoint in Phase III ALPHA trial for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria who experience clinically significant extravascular haemolysis. Interim results demonstrated statistically significant improvement compared to placebo in haemoglobin levels from baseline to week 12. AstraZeneca will present these data at a forthcoming medical meeting and intends to proceed with regulatory submissions in the coming months.
