Abstract
This analysis investigated the incidence of sudden deaths (SDs) and non-fatal and fatal ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) in five acalabrutinib clinical trials. In total, 1299 patients received acalabrutinib (exposure, 4568.4 patient-years). Sixteen (1.2%) patients experienced SD or VA (event rate, 0.350/100 patient-years). Non-fatal VAs occurred in 11 (0.8%) patients, nine (0.7%) of whom had premature ventricular contractions only. SD and fatal VAs occurred in five (0.4%) patients (event rate, 0.109/100 patient-years; median time to event: 46.2 months). SDs and VAs with acalabrutinib occurred at low rates, and there are insufficient data to point to an increased risk of SD or VA with acalabrutinib.
