AbbVie Announces European Commission Authorization of Expanded Label for VENCLYXTO® (venetoclax) to Include Additional Combinations in Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic LeukemiaMay 29, 2026 8:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) Addition of VENCLYXTO plus acalabrutinib, with or without obinutuzumab, and VENCLYXTO plus ibrutinib supported by data from Phase 3 AMPLIFY trial, Phase 3 GLOW trial and Phase 2 CAPTIVATE trialFixed-duration VENCLYXTO-based combination regimens provide patients with additional CLL treatment options that may offer the potential for treatment-free intervals NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that the European Commission (EC) has authorized an expanded label for VENCLYXTO® (venetoclax) to include use in combination with acalabrutinib (with or without obinutuzumab) and use in combination with ibrutinib for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The expanded label follows the EC's inclusion of these combinations in the acalabrutinib and ibrutinib labels. These all-oral, fixed-duration combination regimens support current standards of care and offer patients and providers additional targeted oral medications for CLL in the first-line setting that include the potential for time off treatment.The European Commission authorization extends to all European Union Member States, as well as Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein.1"VENCLYXTO-based combination regimens have demonstrated a favorable efficacy and safety profile in the first-line setting for chronic lymphocytic leukemia," said Svetlana Kobina, MD, PhD, vice president, global medical affairs, oncology, AbbVie. "The inclusion of additional fixed-duration, chemotherapy-free, oral VENCLYXTO combinations in the label helps address the evolving needs of patients and healthcare providers, as they consider disease management options with the potential for treatment-free intervals. AbbVie is committed to transforming standards of care for people living with cancer, and the availability of all-oral VENCLYXTO combinations expands choice and flexibility for patients and providers navigating complex treatment decisions in CLL."VENCLYXTO in combination with acalabrutinib (with or without obinutuzumab) was supported by data from the Phase 3 AMPLIFY trial. VENCLYXTO in combination with ibrutinib was supported by data from the Phase 3 GLOW and Phase 2 CAPTIVATE trials."While CLL remains an incurable cancer and patients often relapse, it can be effectively managed with combination regimens, which have emerged as effective options to reduce the treatment burden for patients living with this disease," said Paolo Ghia, MD, PhD, Professor of Medical Oncology at the Università Vita-Salute San Raffaele, AMPLIFY and CAPTIVATE steering committee member and investigator. "With demonstrated durable responses in previously untreated patients and opportunity for treatment-free periods, these additional venetoclax-based combination regimens expand options for patients without the need for time-consuming infusions or continuous therapy." CLL is one of the most common forms of leukemia in adults and is a type of cancer that can develop from cells in the bone marrow that later mature into certain white blood cells (called lymphocytes). Even with recent improvement in outcomes, patients living with CLL can still encounter difficult decisions when selecting the treatment option that best suits their individual needs."People living with chronic lymphocytic leukemia can face multiple challenges when it comes to managing their disease, which can take a toll on a patient's mental health and overall well-being," said Jan Rynne, interim association development lead, European CLL Association. "The possibility of time off treatment through additional combination treatment options has critical quality of life implications for patients and their families as they continue to navigate everyday life with CLL." For a full list of side effects and information on dosage and administration, contraindications and other precautions when using VENCLYXTO in combination with acalabrutinib (with or without obinutuzumab) and use in combination with ibrutinib for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated CLL, please refer to the Summary of Product Characteristics for further information.2About the AMPLIFY StudyThe AMPLIFY (NCT03836261) study is a randomized, global, multicenter, open-label Phase 3 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLYXTO and acalabrutinib, with or without obinutuzumab, compared to chemoimmunotherapy in adult patients with previously untreated CLL without del(17p) or TP53 mutation.3Results showed that the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLYXTO and acalabrutinib was superior to chemoimmunotherapy. Study results showed the combination regimen reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 35% versus chemoimmunotherapy. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached versus 47.6 months for chemoimmunotherapy. The triplet regimen including obinutuzumab also demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy, with median PFS likewise not reached. The safety profiles of the combination regimens were consistent with the known safety profiles of each individual therapy alone. No new safety signals were observed in the AMPLIFY study.4The most common adverse reactions (≥15%) of any grade in patients who received VENCLYXTO and acalabrutinib were headache (35%), diarrhea (33%), musculoskeletal pain (25%), COVID-19 (21%), fatigue (18%), bruising (17%), rash (16%), and nausea (15%). The most common laboratory abnormalities (≥15%) of any grade were neutrophils decreased (78%), glucose increased (74%), lymphocytes decreased (56%), platelets decreased (43%), hemoglobin decreased (35%), calcium decreased (30%), ALT increased (26%), urate increased (25%), LDH increased (24%), potassium increased (22%), AST increased (22%), ALP increased (20%), glucose decreased (20%), creatinine increased (19%), and sodium increased (15%). Grade 4 laboratory abnormalities in >15% of patients included absolute neutrophil count decreased (15%).Serious adverse reactions occurred in 25% of patients receiving VENCLYXTO and acalabrutinib. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥2%) were COVID-19, including COVID-19 pneumonia (9%), second primary malignancies (2.7%) and neutropenia (2.1%). Fatal adverse events occurred in 3.4% of patients. The most common fatal adverse events included COVID-19 and COVID-19 pneumonia.About the GLOW StudyThe GLOW (NCT03462719) study is a randomized, open-label Phase 3 trial comparing progression-free survival in patients treated with the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib or chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab in adult patients with previously untreated CLL.5Results from the 64-month follow-up to the GLOW study showed that the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib demonstrated a clinically meaningful improvement in PFS and overall survival (OS) compared to chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab for older patients and/or those with comorbidities with previously untreated CLL. At 64 months of follow-up, VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 73% compared to chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab. For OS, the regimen reduced the risk of death by 54%. Study results showed a median PFS of 65 months in the venetoclax plus ibrutinib arm versus 23 months in the chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab arm.6The safety profile of VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib was generally consistent with the safety profile of the single agents and tolerability profiles were consistent with CLL treatment in the enrolled patient population. Most common grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) were neutropenia (34.9%), infections (17%), and diarrhea (10.4%) for VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib; neutropenia (49.5%), infections (11.4%), and thrombocytopenia (20%) for chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab. Deaths during treatment occurred in seven patients on VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib and two patients on chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab. The VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib regimen was well-tolerated and no adverse events of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) were observed in the venetoclax plus ibrutinib arm, compared to 6 cases in the chlorambucil with obinutuzumab arm. At 64-months follow-up, the time patients spent without significant toxicity or disease progression was significantly longer for VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib versus chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab (52 months vs 31 months). Treatment-emergent adverse event-free PFS (TEAE-free PFS) analysis showed that while patients receiving 15 months of VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib spent slightly more time in the grade 3/4 toxicity state versus patients receiving 6 months of chlorambucil plus obinutuzumab (2 months vs 1 month), patients who received VENCLYXTO and ibrutinib spent substantially more time in TEAE-free PFS (50 months vs 30 months), indicating longer disease control without significant toxicity.About the CAPTIVATE StudyThe CAPTIVATE (NCT02910583) study is a multicenter, two-cohort Phase 2 trial assessing both minimal residual disease (MRD)-guided discontinuation and fixed duration therapy with the combination of VENCLYXTO plus ibrutinib in adult patients with previously untreated CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).7Results showed that the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLYXTO plus ibrutinib demonstrated 5.5-year PFS and overall survival (OS) rates of 66% and 97%, respectively; 73% of CLL patients remained treatment-free 5.5 years after 15 months of VENCLYXTO plus ibrutinib therapy.8The most common treatment-emergent AEs in patients who received VENCLYXTO plus ibrutinib were diarrhea (62%), nausea (43%), neutropenia (42%) and arthralgia (33%); AEs were primarily grade 1 or 2 in severity. The most common grade 3/4 AEs were neutropenia (33%), hypertension (6%) and neutrophil count decreased (5%). One fatal AE (sudden death) occurred during ibrutinib lead-in. Serious AEs occurred in 36 patients (23%).About VENCLYXTO VENCLYXTO® (venetoclax) is a first-in-class medicine that selectively binds and inhibits the B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) protein. In some blood cancers, BCL-2 prevents cancer cells from undergoing their natural death or self-destruction process, called apoptosis. VENCLYXTO targets the BCL-2 protein and works to help restore the process of apoptosis.VENCLYXTO is being developed by AbbVie and Roche. It is jointly commercialized by AbbVie and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, in the U.S. and by AbbVie outside of the U.S. Together, the companies are committed to BCL-2 research and to studying venetoclax in clinical trials across several blood and other cancers. Venetoclax is approved in more than 80 countries, including the U.S.VENCLYXTO (venetoclax) EU Indication and Summary of Important Safety Information
Venclyxto is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL):in combination with acalabrutinib with or without obinutuzumabin combination with obinutuzumabin combination with ibrutinibVENCLYXTO in combination with rituximab is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with CLL who have received at least one prior therapy.VENCLYXTO monotherapy is indicated for the treatment of CLL:In the presence of 17p deletion or TP53 mutation in adult patients who are unsuitable for or have failed a B-cell receptor pathway inhibitor, orIn the absence of 17p deletion or TP53 mutation in adult patients who have failed both chemoimmunotherapy and a B-cell receptor pathway inhibitorContraindications
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients. Concomitant use of strong CYP3A inhibitors at initiation and during the dose-titration phase. Concomitant use of preparations containing St. John's wort.Special Warnings & Precautions for Use
Tumour lysis syndrome (TLS), including fatal events and renal failure requiring dialysis, has occurred in patients with CLL when treated with venetoclax. Venetoclax poses a risk for TLS at initiation and during the dose-titration phase. Changes in electrolytes consistent with TLS that require prompt management can occur as early as 6 to 8 hours following the first dose of VENCLYXTO and at each dose increase. During post marketing surveillance, TLS, including fatal events, has been reported after a single 20 mg dose of venetoclax. The risk of TLS is a continuum based on multiple factors, including comorbidities (particularly reduced renal function), tumour burden, and splenomegaly in CLL. Patients should be assessed for risk and should receive appropriate prophylaxis, monitoring, and management for TLS.Neutropenia (grade 3 or 4) has been reported and complete blood counts should be monitored throughout the treatment period. Serious infections, including sepsis with fatal outcome, have been reported. Monitoring of any signs and symptoms of infection is required. Suspected infections should receive prompt treatment and dose interruption or reduction, as appropriate. Live vaccines should not be administered during treatment or thereafter until B-cell recovery.Drug Interactions
CYP3A inhibitors: For patients requiring concomitant use with venetoclax, refer to the SmPC for recommendations for managing drug-drug interactions. Patients should be monitored more closely for signs of toxicities and the dose may need to be further adjusted. Grapefruit products, Seville oranges, and starfruit (carambola) should be avoided during treatment with venetoclax.Additional agents that may alter venetoclax plasma concentrations include P-gp or BCRP inhibitors, CYP3A inducers (including St. John's wort), azithromycin and bile acid sequestrants. Concomitant use of these agents with venetoclax may require further dose adjustments and patients should be monitored closely for signs of toxicities.Adverse Reactions
The most commonly occurring adverse reactions (≥20%) of any grade in patients receiving venetoclax in the combination studies with obinutuzumab, ibrutinib, or rituximab were diarrhoea, neutropenia, nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, fatigue and vomiting. In the monotherapy studies, the most common adverse reactions were neutropenia/neutrophil count decreased, diarrhoea, nausea, anaemia, fatigue, and upper respiratory tract infection.The most frequently reported serious adverse reactions (≥2%) in patients receiving venetoclax in combination with obinutuzumab, ibrutinib, or rituximab were pneumonia, febrile neutropenia, sepsis, neutropenia, anaemia, diarrhoea and TLS. In the monotherapy studies, the most frequently reported serious adverse reactions (≥2%) were pneumonia and febrile neutropenia.The most commonly occurring adverse reactions (≥20%) of any grade in patients treated with venetoclax in combination with acalabrutinib were infections, neutropenia, headache, bruising, diarrhoea and musculoskeletal pain. The most commonly reported Grade ≥3 adverse reaction (≥5%) was neutropenia.The most commonly occurring adverse reactions of any grade (≥20%) in patients treated with venetoclax in combination with acalabrutinib and obinutuzumab were infections, neutropenia, headache, bruising, diarrhoea, nausea and musculoskeletal pain.

U.S. FDA Approves DECNUPAZTM (pivekimab sunirine-pvzy) for Treatment of Adult Patients with Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm, an Ultra-Rare and Aggressive Blood Cancer With Limited Treatment OptionsMay 27, 2026 6:18 PM
PR Newswire (US) - DECNUPAZ is the first and only antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) approved for blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) that is initiated in an outpatient setting
- DECNUPAZ marks AbbVie's first ADC approved for blood cancerNORTH CHICAGO, Ill., May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved DECNUPAZTM (pivekimab sunirine-pvzy) for the treatment of adult patients with BPDCN, an ultra-rare and aggressive hematologic malignancy with limited treatment options. The approval is supported by data from the Phase 1/2 CADENZA trial, a global study evaluating the safety and efficacy of DECNUPAZ for BPDCN."For patients living with rare cancers, progress in research can be life-changing," said Roopal Thakkar, executive vice president, research and development, chief scientific officer, AbbVie. "This approval delivers a new option for treating BPDCN and demonstrates our determination to drive meaningful advancements for patients affected by difficult-to-treat cancers."Patients with BPDCN often present with skin lesions, and the disease can rapidly spread to the bone marrow, lymph nodes, and central nervous system. The disease typically affects adult men aged 60-70?years. Despite initial treatment with intensive chemotherapy, which may include stem cell transplantation, many patients experience relapse, underscoring the need for new treatment options.1"BPDCN is an aggressive disease with historically limited therapeutic options, particularly for patients whose disease has relapsed or become refractory," said Naveen Pemmaraju, M.D., professor of leukemia, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. "Pivekimab sunirine-pvzy is the first and only CD123 targeting ADC that can be initiated in an outpatient setting, offering a meaningful benefit for BPDCN patients in need of new treatment alternatives."In the Phase 1/2 CADENZA trial, newly diagnosed patients with BPDCN who were treated with DECNUPAZ demonstrated clinically meaningful and durable responses. In newly diagnosed patients with BPDCN (n=33), researchers observed a composite complete response rate of 69.7% with a median duration of response of 9.7 months, with 13 patients (39.4%) who were able to receive post-study treatment stem cell transplant. Patients with relapsed or refractory disease (n=51) had a composite complete response rate of 15.7% with median duration of response rate of 9.2 months, with six patients (11.8%) who were able to receive post-study treatment stem cell transplant.2Most common adverse reactions (≥20%) were edema, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, hemorrhage, infusion-related reactions, nausea, and diarrhea. DECNUPAZ has a boxed warning for hepatotoxicity, including hepatic veno-occlusive disease, and warnings and precautions for infusion-related reactions, edema, sulfite allergic reactions, and embryo-fetal toxicity.About the CADENZA Trial
CADENZA is a Phase 1/2, multicenter, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and anti-leukemia activity of pivekimab sunirine-pvzy in patients with CD123-positive hematologic malignancies, including BPDCN. The study was also designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose, recommended Phase 2 dose and dosing schedule for pivekimab sunirine-pvzy monotherapy.3 Results published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology included a total of 84 patients who were part of the trial. Of these, 33 patients with no CNS involvement received DECNUPAZ as a frontline treatment and 51 had relapsed or refractory disease without evidence of active CNS disease. Eleven patients in the frontline treatment group had prior or concurrent cancer diagnoses in addition to BPDCN, making their treatment more complex and challenging.2About DECNUPAZ (pivekimab sunirine-pvzy)
DECNUPAZ (pivekimab sunirine-pvzy) is a CD123-targeting ADC for the treatment of adult patients diagnosed with the hematological malignancy BPDCN. ADCs are designed to deliver potent cell death-inducing agents called 'payloads' directly to the cells expressing a specific protein. CD123 (IL-3Ra) is a protein overexpressed in BPDCN, making it an ideal target for therapy. The payload is a member of the indolinobenzodiazepine pseudodimer class that alkylates DNA and causes single-strand DNA breaks without crosslinking, leading to apoptosis and cell death.4In October 2020, the FDA granted pivekimab sunirine-pvzy Breakthrough Therapy Designation for relapsed/refractory BPDCN.DECNUPAZ U.S. Uses and Important Safety Information, Including Boxed Warning4Use

AbbVie Announces New Data at ASCO 2026 Demonstrating Breadth and Momentum Across its Next-Generation Oncology PipelineMay 21, 2026 6:46 PM
PR Newswire (US) - Data from novel Top1i ADC and T-cell engager platforms highlight potential within solid tumors and blood cancers, including oral presentations in prostate cancer, small cell lung cancer, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer and multiple myeloma - NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that it will present new data at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago demonstrating the depth and breadth of its oncology pipeline. The data will be shared through multiple oral presentations and posters spanning solid tumors and blood cancer indications.Collectively, these presentations highlight AbbVie's continued focus on attacking cancer from inside and outside the cell, supported by sustained investment in its expanding antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) platform, including Topoisomerase I inhibitor (Top1i)–based ADCs and its T-cell engager (TCE) portfolio."Our oncology pipeline is intentionally designed to address the complexity and heterogeneity of cancer biology through a diversified portfolio of differentiated therapies spanning multiple modalities," said Daejin Abidoye, M.D., vice president, therapeutic area head, oncology, solid tumor and hematology. "The data we are presenting at ASCO reflect the strength of this strategy, including continued momentum with our ADC programs in solid tumors and validation of immune-based approaches, such as etentamig, being investigated as a next-generation TCE in multiple myeloma. These results underscore our commitment to advancing assets with distinct scientific approaches aimed to address critical unmet patient needs." Key findings presented include:Data from AbbVie's Top1i ADCs Across Solid Tumors:Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): A first-in-human Phase 1 study (NCT06318273) evaluating ABBV-969, a potential first-in-class bispecific ADC targeting PSMA/STEAP1, in heavily pretreated patients with mCRPC, demonstrated a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 45% among 29 patients with RECIST-evaluable disease. At active dose levels, 67% of patients achieved at least a 50% reduction in prostate-specific antigen (PSA50), with 28% achieving PSA90 responses. The safety profile was manageable in heavily pretreated patients with mCRPC.1 Additional findings to be presented at the meeting.Small cell lung cancer (SCLC): In Phase 1 data (NCT05599984) of ABBV-706 (SEZ6-directed ADC) in the monotherapy cohort (n=17), SCLC patients receiving ABBV-706 at the recommended Phase 3 dose of 1.8 mg/kg as a second-line therapy achieved an objective response rate (ORR) of 82%— promising data in a disease where prognosis remains poor. The safety profile was comparable with previously reported data.2 Additional findings and updated data will be presented at the meeting. The findings support continued evaluation of ABBV-706 in SCLC.Platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC): Data from a Phase 1 basket study of Telisotuzumab adizutecan (Temab-A), a next-generation c-Met–directed ADC, demonstrated antitumor activity of Temab-A monotherapy in biomarker unselected PROC (NCT06084481) and HNSCC (NCT06084481) patients.3,4 Additional observations in c-Met selected patients, to be presented at the meeting, highlight the potential of Temab-A in this population.3,4These new data support the potential of Temab-A across an expanding range of solid tumors and patient populations, including previously presented data in lung, colorectal and gastric cancers and across patients with MET-amplification and increased c-Met expression.Relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (R/R MM): Data from a Phase 1b study of etentamig (NCT05650632), being investigated as a next-generation B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) x CD3 T-cell engager, as monotherapy in a cohort of heavily pre-treated BCMA-exposed R/R MM patients will be presented at the meeting.Etentamig is an investigational BCMA and CD3 bispecific antibody T-cell engager composed of bivalent BCMA-binding domains allowing for high BCMA-avidity and a low-affinity CD3 binding domain.The data showed that among patients (n=11) that proceeded to etentamig after BCMA-directed CAR-T in the prior line of therapy, an ORR of 64% was achieved. Minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity was observed in 67% (2/3) of evaluable patients who received BCMA-directed therapy in the prior line of therapy. The median duration of response was 13 months. No new safety signals were observed. Despite no step-up dosing (SUD) in this cohort, all cytokine release syndrome (CRS) reported (57%) were grade 1 and 2.5 Additional findings to be presented at the meeting.Further information on AbbVie clinical trials is available at https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/.Additional details on key presentations are available below, and the full ASCO Annual Meeting 2026 abstracts are available here.TitleDate/Time SessionAbstract

Next-Generation GLP-1 Innovation Could Unlock Massive Metabolic Healthcare Market OpportunitiesMay 13, 2026 9:00 AM
InvestorsHub NewsWireNext-Generation GLP-1 Innovation Could Unlock Massive Metabolic Healthcare Market OpportunitiesBioMedWire Editorial Coverage: Obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus ("T2DM") rank among the most urgent and costly healthcare problems facing the world today, contributing to surging rates of cardiovascular disease, fatty liver disease, kidney complications and ballooning healthcare expenses. What once represented a specialized class of diabetes treatments has grown into one of the most consequential therapeutic categories in modern medicine, with GLP-1 receptor agonists now fundamentally restructuring how obesity, metabolic disease and potentially even neurodegeneration are treated. Operating in this environment is SureNano Science Ltd. (CSE: SURE) (OTCQB: SURNF) (Profile), which through its subsidiary GlucaPharm Inc. is developing a distinct next-generation GLP-1 platform built around GEP-44, a novel triple agonist peptide engineered to improve efficacy, tolerability, and delivery flexibility within one of the most commercially dynamic pharmaceutical markets in history. SureNano is one of the emerging microcap companies active in the GLP-1 space, operating alongside established leaders including Merck & Co. Inc. (NYSE: MRK), AbbVie Inc. (NYSE: ABBV), Viking Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: VKTX) and Altimmune Inc. (NASDAQ: ALT).SureNano Science is developing GEP-44 as a patented next-generation metabolic therapy designed to address the limitations of first-generation GLP-1 drugs.The commercial potential tied to GLP-1 therapies is expanding quickly, with the global GLP-1 market forecast to potentially reach $190 billion by 2035.SureNano Science is also eyeing differentiated drug-delivery technologies designed to improve patient accessibility and long-term adherence.Preclinical data from SureNano Science suggest that GEP-44 may offer substantive differentiation relative to earlier-generation GLP therapies.Beyond its primary GLP-1 metabolic platform, SureNano Science is also evaluating early-stage opportunities that could expand the long-term scope of its therapeutic and delivery technology portfolio.Click here to view the custom infographic of the SureNano Science editorial. Rewriting the Rules of Metabolic MedicineThe global obesity crisis shows no sign of plateauing. According to the World Health Organization ("WHO"), a reported one billion people globally are currently living with obesity, while type 2 diabetes rates continue to climb across both high-income and developing economies. The WHO further notes that obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and T2DM, while further research has linked obesity to chronic kidney disease and rising healthcare expenditures, placing substantial and growing pressure on health systems around the world.GLP-1 receptor agonists have rapidly risen to become one of the defining breakthroughs in metabolic medicine. Originally introduced to manage blood glucose levels in diabetes patients, these drugs are now recognized for their capacity to drive meaningful weight reduction and deliver broad improvements in metabolic health. Market leaders Novo Nordisk A/S and Eli Lilly and Company have come to dominate the space through their blockbuster injectable franchises, including Ozempic(R), Wegovy(R), Mounjaro(R) and Zepbound(R).Commercial momentum in this space is increasing. JPMorgan Chase & Co. forecasts that the general obesity drug market could reach $200 billion by 2030 as global adoption expands and indications stretch beyond diabetes and weight management. Additional industry projections suggest GLP-1 therapies are on track to become one of the most commercially successful drug categories ever, with annual sales projections of $150 billion or more by the end of the decade.The industry is already pivoting toward the next generation of incretin therapies, with a focus on improved efficacy, tolerability and patient convenience. Needle-free, including oral, formulas, expanded indications and combination metabolic approaches have emerged as major priorities across the sector. SureNano Science is positioning itself in this scenario as a nimble participant pursuing differentiated innovation through GEP-44, a patented triple agonist peptide licensed from Syracuse University and designed to advance through the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") regulatory route.A Next-Gen Candidate Built for Better OutcomesSureNano Science is developing GEP-44 as a patented next-generation metabolic therapy designed to address the limitations of first-generation GLP-1 drugs, positioning this up-and-coming microcap as a small but strategically focused company moving through the FDA process. Unlike traditional GLP-1 agonists, which act on a single receptor pathway, GEP-44 functions as a triple agonist targeting GLP-1 alongside peptide YY receptors Y1 and Y2. This combined mechanism is designed to simultaneously regulate glucose metabolism, reduce appetite and improve tolerability within a single therapeutic molecule.The compound originated at Syracuse University and has generated promising results in preclinical settings. According to research, GEP-44 produced meaningful reductions in food intake and decreased body weight while also enhancing glycemic control in preclinical models. In addition, the compound did not trigger the nausea, malaise and gastrointestinal adverse effects commonly seen with many first-generation GLP-1 therapies, a distinction that could become increasingly significant as patient populations and adherence demands grow.The broader pharmaceutical industry is investing aggressively in incretin therapies that can address tolerability and long-term adherence challenges. PwC reports that the next segment of the obesity drug market will most likely be characterized by expanded indications, more patient-friendly delivery formats and therapies with stronger adherence profiles. This lends itself to a supportive environment for companies pursuing second-generation GLP innovation.Despite being smaller than more-established pharmaceutical players, SureNano Science operates with a lean development model and cost-efficient structure built for flexibility and development speed. The company is involved in substantial research in Australia, where government incentive programs may provide research tax credits of up to 43.5% on qualifying expenditures. Should GEP-44 continue producing favorable results through clinical development, the company could emerge as an attractive acquisition, licensing or partnership candidate within the fast-expanding GLP ecosystem.Market Scale and the Commercial Case for GLP-1 InnovationThe commercial potential tied to GLP-1 therapies is expanding quickly. According to Morgan Stanley, the global GLP-1 market could reach $190 billion by 2035 as patient adoption broadens and therapeutic applications extend into new disease areas. Industry forecasts from BCC Research also forecast significant long-term growth, with the GLP-1 analogue market estimated to reach $268.4 billion by 2030.Patient uptake estimates that between 25 and 30 million Americans could be using GLP-1 therapies by 2030, up from approximately 10 million in 2026. Increasing insurance coverage along with obesity prevalence and growing physician familiarity are all driving the rapid mainstreaming of these treatments.At the same time, the competitive setting is shifting toward the next wave of products. IQVIA calls 2026 the "year of the orals," with oral GLP-1 formulations projected to meaningfully enhance accessibility, compliance and long-term maintenance therapy adoption. The anticipated off-patent expansion of semaglutide across major global markets is also expected to intensify competition while broadening overall patient access.As GEP-44 advances through IND-enabling studies and moves toward eventual phase 1 trials, SureNano Science stands as one of a small number of microcap public companies offering direct exposure to the expanding GLP-1 market. This positioning may represent a meaningful valuation gap relative to large-cap pharmaceutical incumbents and late-stage obesity therapy developers, particularly if the company achieves key clinical and regulatory milestones.Delivery Innovation as a Second Engine of ValueAlongside its core therapeutic development efforts, SureNano Science is also eyeing differentiated drug-delivery technologies designed to improve patient accessibility and long-term adherence. The company's platform strategy includes evaluating oral, sublingual and intranasal delivery approaches that could eventually reduce reliance on injectable administration.Convenience and adherence have emerged as increasingly important competitive dimensions within the GLP-1 market. The dominant therapies today are injection-based, creating barriers for some patients due to administration complexity, refrigeration requirements and long-term compliance challenges. Noninvasive and oral alternatives are widely regarded as representing one of the most significant near-term commercial opportunities in obesity and diabetes treatment.Industry analysts increasingly view delivery innovation as potentially as consequential as efficacy improvements. IQVIA notes that oral obesity therapies could substantially boost long-term maintenance adoption while simplifying supply chains by removing cold-chain requirements, factors that could meaningfully expand patient access in international markets.By combining therapeutic development with delivery innovation, SureNano Science is working to build a vertically integrated metabolic disease platform rather than advancing a single injectable drug candidate. This broader strategy may generate additional long-term optionality and commercial flexibility as the obesity treatment market continues to evolve.Preclinical Data Point to a Meaningful Competitive EdgePreclinical data from SureNano Science suggest that GEP-44 may offer substantive differentiation relative to earlier-generation GLP therapies. According to the company, the compound demonstrated approximately 15% weight loss in preclinical testing, compared with roughly 9% observed with liraglutide, while food intake reductions reached approximately 39% versus around 20% for the comparator.In addition to weight reduction, GEP-44 produced improvements in glycemic control while reportedly avoiding nausea and vomiting during testing. Gastrointestinal side effects remain among the most frequently cited challenges associated with currently marketed GLP-1 therapies and represent a significant driver of discontinuation. Improved tolerability could therefore become a meaningful competitive advantage if these preclinical findings are validated in human studies.The pharmaceutical industry continues to pour resources into next-generation obesity therapies capable of delivering better outcomes and patient experiences. The Pharma Letter reports that obesity drug pipelines are increasingly oriented toward differentiation through combination receptor pathways, improved tolerability profiles, and expanded delivery options as the competitive field intensifies.While GEP-44 remains in preclinical development, these early findings place SureNano Science within a strategically important segment of the obesity treatment landscape. If subsequent studies continue to support these results, the company could establish itself as a distinctive participant in one of the largest and most rapidly expanding therapeutic categories in contemporary healthcare.Exploring Broader Platform Opportunities for Long-Term GrowthBeyond its primary GLP-1 metabolic platform, SureNano Science is also evaluating early-stage opportunities that could expand the long-term scope of its therapeutic and delivery technology portfolio. These discussions include nonbinding opportunities involving ibogaine-related intellectual property concentrated on formulation and delivery technologies.While still exploratory and not considered a core asset at this stage, the initiative reflects a broader strategic aim of building diversified platform capabilities across multiple high-growth therapeutic areas. Scientific and investor interest in ibogaine and related psychedelic-derived therapeutics has grown considerably in recent years, as researchers examine their potential applications in addiction treatment, mental health conditions, and neurological disorders.CNN recently reported on the growing scientific and regulatory attention being directed at ibogaine research, particularly in areas related to opioid addiction and treatment-resistant mental health conditions. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has also signaled increasing openness to accelerating development pathways for treatments targeting serious mental illnesses and areas of significant unmet medical need.SureNano's interest in formulation and delivery technologies within these emerging areas fits naturally with the company's broader emphasis on drug-delivery innovation and platform versatility. Rather than treating ibogaine-related opportunities as a standalone commercial priority, the company appears to be assessing how specialized delivery technologies and intellectual property could complement its existing capabilities in metabolic therapeutics and nontraditional administration. This kind of optionality may provide incremental long-term strategic value if the regulatory landscape surrounding psychedelic-based therapies continues to evolve.These initiatives remain early stage and are subject to meaningful scientific, clinical and regulatory uncertainty. However, by selectively evaluating expansion opportunities alongside its primary GLP-1 development program, SureNano Science is aligning itself with a broader trend toward diversified therapeutic platforms capable of competing across multiple large and evolving healthcare markets. As pharmaceutical innovation increasingly converges around metabolic health, neuroscience, and advanced delivery technologies, strategic flexibility may prove to be a growing differentiator for emerging biotechnology companies.Advances Continue Across the GLP-1 LandscapeMomentum across the GLP-1 and metabolic disease sector continues to accelerate as leading biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies expand development programs targeting obesity, diabetes, liver disease and broader cardiometabolic conditions. Recent news from the GLP-1 space highlights continued investment in next-generation therapies, late-stage clinical development, strategic partnerships and regulatory progress as the rapidly evolving space remains one of the most closely watched areas in healthcare and biotechnology.Merck & Co. Inc. (NYSE: MRK) expanded into the GLP-1 and obesity-treatment market through an exclusive global licensing agreement with Hansoh Pharma for an investigational oral GLP-1 receptor agonist. Merck stated that the candidate is being developed for cardiometabolic diseases and described the agreement as part of the company's strategy to strengthen its presence in metabolic disorders. The company noted that it will receive exclusive rights outside China to develop, manufacture and commercialize the therapy, reflecting a growing industry focus on oral GLP-1 treatments for obesity and related conditions.AbbVie Inc. (NYSE: ABBV) announced positive topline results from a phase 1 multiple ascending dose study evaluating ABBV-295, its long-acting amylin analog being developed for obesity and metabolic disease treatment. AbbVie reported that ABBV-295 demonstrated "clinically meaningful" body weight reduction ranging from approximately 7.75% to 9.79% over the treatment period, while also showing a "favorable tolerability profile" with no serious adverse events reported. The company emphasized that the data support continued advancement of its metabolic disease pipeline amid increasing interest in next-generation obesity therapies that may complement or compete with GLP-1 drugs.Viking Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: VKTX) reported completion of enrollment in its phase 3 VANQUISH-2 trial evaluating VK2735, its dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist candidate for obesity treatment. Viking stated that the study is assessing subcutaneous VK2735 in adults with obesity and type 2 diabetes, while concurrent phase 3 development is also ongoing in broader obesity populations. The company noted that VK2735 is being developed in both oral and injectable formulations for metabolic disorders, underscoring its position in the rapidly expanding GLP-1 obesity-treatment landscape.Altimmune Inc. (NASDAQ: ALT) announced that pemvidutide received FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of MASH, further advancing development of the company's GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist platform. Altimmune stated that pemvidutide has demonstrated improvements in liver fat reduction, weight loss and fibrosis-related measures, while the company plans to initiate a Phase 3 trial evaluating multiple doses over a 52-week treatment period. The announcement reinforces Altimmune's ongoing efforts to position pemvidutide within the broader GLP-1 and metabolic disease sector spanning obesity, liver disease and related cardiometabolic conditions.Collectively, these developments underscore the growing importance of GLP-1-related therapies as companies compete to address some of the world's largest and fastest-growing chronic health challenges. With ongoing advances in oral formulations, combination therapies and expanded metabolic disease applications, the sector continues to attract significant scientific, clinical and investor attention while reshaping the future landscape of obesity and cardiometabolic treatment.For further information about SureNano Science Ltd., visit the SureNano Science profile.About BioMedWireBioMedWire ("BMW") is a specialized communications platform with a focus on the latest developments in the Biotechnology (BioTech), Biomedical Sciences (BioMed) and Life Sciences sectors.

CNS Drug Delivery Technologies Are Reshaping Alzheimer's and Biodefense ResearchMay 13, 2026 9:00 AM
InvestorsHub NewsWireCNS Drug Delivery Technologies Are Reshaping Alzheimer's and Biodefense ResearchBioMedWire Editorial Coverage: Among the most guarded structures in human biology, the brain is also one of the hardest to treat. The blood-brain barrier ("BBB"), a specialized biological membrane, shields neural tissue from foreign substances, including most therapeutic agents. As cases of Alzheimer's disease climb worldwide and governments sharpen their focus on biodefense, the absence of efficient pathways for delivering drugs to the brain is fast becoming one of medicine's most pressing unresolved problems. Companies such as Oncotelic Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC) (Profile) are responding to this challenge with next-generation delivery platforms engineered to circumvent biological barriers and ensure direct, targeted access to the central nervous system ("CNS"). Oncotelic has developed a proprietary intranasal nose-to-brain ("N2B") system capable of rapidly shuttling therapeutics to the brain, a signal of growing industry consensus that delivery innovation, not merely drug discovery, will drive the next wave of breakthroughs in CNS medicine. Oncotelic joins a group of leading biopharma companies working in the biopharmaceutical and advanced therapeutics space, including Amgen Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN), Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), AbbVie Inc. (NYSE: ABBV) and Lunai Bioworks Inc. (NASDAQ: LNAI).While the blood-brain barrier is vital for maintaining neurological health, it simultaneously creates a major obstacle for drug developers.Oncotelic Therapeutics is pursuing a position in a segment of the market focused on enabling faster, more reliable access to the brain.CNS drug delivery is not only a concern for chronic disease, it is also a strategic priority in the area of national security and biodefense.Designed as a device-enabled approach to direct CNS delivery, Oncotelic's N2B delivery system offers a potential alternative to traditional systemic or intramuscular routes.Oncotelic Therapeutics is building along these lines. Its focus on scalable, adaptable delivery infrastructure positions the company to pursue multiple CNS indications from a shared platform base.Click here to view the custom infographic of the Oncotelic Therapeutics editorial.Why the Blood-Brain Barrier Is So Difficult to OvercomeThe blood-brain barrier functions as a tightly regulated biological filter, shielding brain tissue from harmful substances traveling through the bloodstream. While this defense mechanism is vital for maintaining neurological health, it simultaneously creates a major obstacle for drug developers. Research shows that the BBB blocks the passage of most chemical compounds, permitting entry only to certain molecules that meet narrow size and chemistry criteria. The result is that even promising therapeutic candidates often fail to produce meaningful effects simply because they cannot reach the brain in sufficient concentrations.The scale of this problem is striking. Scientific consensus suggests that close to 98% of small-molecule drugs and virtually all biologic therapies are unable to cross the BBB effectively, making this a defining limitation in CNS pharmaceutical development. It also contributes disproportionately to clinical trial failures in neurology, compounds that show real therapeutic promise may nonetheless stumble in trials not because the drug is ineffective, but because it cannot reach its target.The downstream consequences reach across some of the most prevalent and devastating conditions in neurology, from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease to primary brain tumors. After decades of intensive research and massive capital investment, effective treatment options for many CNS disorders remain frustratingly scarce. The persistent failure to achieve adequate drug concentrations in the brain has slowed progress across the field, making the search for workable delivery solutions an urgent scientific and commercial priority.Within this context, Oncotelic Therapeutics is developing technologies specifically aimed at getting around these BBB limitations. A concrete marker of progress is the company's recent announcement that it has finalized a strategic monetization agreement with Lunai Bioworks, in which Oncotelic transferred rights to its N2B delivery system for defined applications in biodefense and Alzheimer's disease."Under the terms of the agreement, Oncotelic has granted Lunai Bioworks worldwide rights to the N2B delivery system IP portfolio within defined fields, specifically biodefense medical countermeasures and Alzheimer's disease only," the announcement stated. "The company continues to evaluate additional partnerships to further monetize its portfolio while maintaining strategic control over core assets."By treating delivery infrastructure as a core asset rather than a secondary consideration, Oncotelic is positioning itself within a broader industry move toward integrated solutions that attack the CNS delivery problem head-on.The Growing Weight of Alzheimer's, Neurological DiseaseThe worldwide toll of Alzheimer's disease and other similar forms of dementia is expanding at an alarming pace. According to the World Health Organization, some 57 million people are currently living with dementia globally, a figure projected to grow sharply in the decades ahead as aging populations increase. The human and economic costs of this expansion are substantial, placing mounting pressure on healthcare systems, families, and public finances.Despite this, therapeutic progress has moved slowly. The Alzheimer's Association notes that while researchers have made meaningful strides in understanding the disease at a molecular level, clinical translation has lagged. Drug candidates that look compelling in preclinical settings frequently falter in human trials, often because adequate therapeutic concentrations cannot be sustained within brain tissue, a problem that loops directly back to delivery.New developments across the biopharma landscape highlight both the promise and the stubborn limitations of current approaches. Therapies with demonstrated clinical signals still face ongoing scrutiny over whether effects are consistent and durable, and debates frequently return to the challenge of achieving reliable drug exposure in the brain. These dynamics support the view that delivery remains one of the defining bottlenecks in CNS medicine.Against this backdrop, Oncotelic Therapeutics is pursuing a position in a segment of the market focused on enabling faster, more reliable access to the brain. By orienting its platform toward targeted and precision delivery, the company is placing itself within a space where solving the delivery problem could substantially improve results across a spectrum of neurodegenerative conditions.Biodefense and the Imperative for Fast CNS InterventionCNS drug delivery is not only a concern for chronic disease, it is also a strategic priority in the area of national security and biodefense. Certain chemical and biological threats act directly on the nervous system, and when they do, the window for effective intervention can be extremely narrow. In these high-stakes scenarios, how fast and how effectively a treatment reaches the brain can mean the difference between survival and catastrophic neurological damage.Federal agencies have taken notice. The Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA") plays a leading role in funding medical countermeasure development for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats. Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Defense has identified CNS injury treatment and neuroprotection as core research areas, a reflection of the operational importance of maintaining neurological function in personnel exposed to hazardous environments.These policy priorities converge on a shared need: Delivery systems that work fast, bypass conventional physiological obstacles, and ensure therapeutics arrive in the brain at concentrations sufficient to produce meaningful effects. When minutes matter, inefficient delivery translates directly into worsened outcomes.Oncotelic Therapeutics is navigating this landscape by exploring applications of its delivery technology that span both commercial medicine and government-funded biodefense programs. This dual-use potential, which is capable of addressing both civilian neurological diseases and emergency response needs, reflects a broader movement toward versatile platforms that can generate value across multiple high-impact markets.Nose-to-Brain Delivery Emerges as a Leading AlternativeWith conventional drug delivery approaches repeatedly running into BBB-related constraints, alternative methods that circumvent the barrier entirely are attracting growing scientific and commercial interest. Among them, intranasal, or "nose-to-brain," delivery has established itself as a particularly compelling option. This pathway leverages anatomical connections between the nasal passages and the brain to transport therapeutic agents directly into CNS tissue, bypassing the bloodstream altogether.Research highlights the capacity of intranasal delivery systems to meaningfully improve drug transport to the brain while keeping systemic exposure low. Evidence from multiple studies indicates that this approach can raise bioavailability and reduce adverse effects—a combination that makes it attractive for long-term use in neurological conditions where patients require sustained treatment.Industry analysis from Deloitte reinforces this trend, noting that CNS therapeutic innovation is shifting its center of gravity from new molecular entities toward delivery technologies. As pharmaceutical and biotech companies seek more consistent clinical outcomes, the ability to get drugs to the right place in the right amounts is increasingly the variable that separates success from failure.Oncotelic's N2B delivery system embodies this philosophy. Designed as a device-enabled approach to direct CNS delivery, it offers a potential alternative to traditional systemic or intramuscular routes. By bypassing the blood-brain barrier, the platform is engineered to accelerate therapeutic onset and improve targeting of the neurological pathways implicated in both acute biodefense emergencies and chronic conditions like Alzheimer's disease.Platform Strategies Are Reshaping CNS InnovationThe trajectory of CNS drug development is moving away from single-asset bets and toward platform-based architectures that can support multiple therapies, indications and commercial pathways. Unlike conventional drug development models, platform approaches offer scalability and adaptability, both qualities particularly suited to an area such as CNS medicine, where diverse conditions often share the same core delivery challenges.Platform-based models allow companies to spread risk across multiple programs while building on a shared technological foundation. By engineering systems that can be configured for different drugs or conditions, developers create multiple routes to revenue while reducing overexposure to any single program's outcome. This structure also aligns naturally with the principles of precision medicine, in which targeted delivery is integral to achieving outcomes that are both effective and patient-specific.For investors, platform strategies carry a distinct appeal. They offer exposure across a range of markets, including neurodegenerative diseases and biodefense, while creating natural opportunities for partnerships, out-licensing, and monetization. This blend of near-term revenue potential with long-term pipeline value is especially compelling in a sector where timelines are long and the risk of any individual asset failing is high.Oncotelic Therapeutics is building along these lines. Its focus on scalable, adaptable delivery infrastructure positions the company to pursue multiple CNS indications from a shared platform base. By combining short-term monetization strategies, such as the Lunai Bioworks agreement, with longer-term development opportunities, the company reflects an industry-wide shift toward approaches that address both the scientific complexity and the commercial realities of the CNS space.The challenge of delivering drugs to the brain persists as one of the most consequential barriers in contemporary medicine. With Alzheimer's disease caseloads climbing and national attention focusing on biodefense, the demand for faster and more reliable CNS delivery solutions is intensifying. Meeting that demand will require progress not just in discovering new compounds but in reimagining how those compounds are transported to their targets.Companies working to overcome the blood-brain barrier and enable targeted, efficient brain delivery are staking out positions at the leading edge of a significant shift. Oncotelic Therapeutics is one participant in this broader movement, advancing platform-based approaches designed to expand what is therapeutically possible in CNS medicine. As the field continues to evolve, the capacity to deliver drugs reliably and precisely to the brain may well emerge as the central determinant of future medical progress.Biopharma Innovation Continues Advancing TherapeuticsThe biopharma and advanced therapeutics sector continues to see strong momentum as companies expand research pipelines, pursue strategic partnerships and accelerate development of next-generation treatments targeting complex diseases. Recent announcements across oncology, immunology and precision medicine highlight growing investment in innovative biologics, AI-driven drug discovery, targeted therapies and advanced platform technologies designed to improve outcomes for patients with difficult-to-treat conditions.Amgen Inc.

PR Newswire (US) AbbVie presents 18 abstracts in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis Breadth of data from real-world evidence and clinical trials reinforce risankizumab and upadacitinib efficacy, safety profile, and durability NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced the presentation of new data across its gastroenterology portfolio at the 2026 Digestive Disease Week (DDW) Annual Meeting, May 2-5 in Chicago. AbbVie will present 18 abstracts, including real-world evidence and long-term findings for SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa) and RINVOQ® (upadacitinib) in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis."As a leader in gastroenterology, AbbVie remains focused on advancing the understanding of IBD and helping raise the standard of care through scientific innovation and a broad portfolio of marketed and investigational therapies," said Andrew Anisfeld, Ph.D., vice president, global medical affairs, immunology, AbbVie. "Our research presented at DDW adds to the growing body of evidence demonstrating the sustained durability of clinical and endoscopic response, as well as the established safety profile, of risankizumab and upadacitinib for people living with IBD."Real-World Data for Patients on Risankizumab in Crohn's Disease Sustained symptom relief and reduced need for concomitant therapy: A 52-week follow-up of adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease treated with risankizumab from the ASPIRE-CD study showed rapid and sustained improvements in abdominal pain, bowel urgency and liquid/soft stools. Among patients with extraintestinal manifestations of arthritis and skin conditions, 25% and 46%, respectively, reported experiencing relief at Week 52. By Week 52, the use of corticosteroids decreased from 34% at baseline to 7%, and over-the-counter therapies had decreased from 72% at baseline to 49%.Improved quality of life: In an analysis of health-related quality of life (HRQL) and treatment satisfaction after initiating risankizumab in patients enrolled in the ASPIRE-CD study, 77% reported improvement in life enjoyment by Week 52. In addition, patients had improved general wellbeing, including improved sexual health and improved work productivity and daily activity levels one year after starting risankizumab. Overall satisfaction with Crohn's disease treatments improved among all patients (from 50% at baseline to nearly 87% at Week 52), particularly patients who were still being treated with risankizumab at Week 52 (92% satisfaction).Low Switch Rate for Risankizumab Among Crohn's Disease PatientsTreatment persistence: A real-world study of US claims data analyzed the switch rates over a 24-month period among patients with Crohn's disease initiating a new biologic therapy. It found the switch rate was 14% for risankizumab, compared with 21% for ustekinumab, 30% for vedolizumab, 33% for infliximab, and 36% for adalimumab. This pattern was also seen among biologic-naïve patients.Lower Odds of Hospitalization Observed After Switch to UpadacitinibBiologic dose-escalation vs. switching to upadacitinib in a real-world setting: A retrospective analysis of US claims data found that among patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis treated with a biologic therapy, patients who were switched to upadacitinib had a 31% lower odds of hospitalization and 26% lower odds of emergency department visits than those who increased average weekly dose of the biologic therapy.Endoscopic Improvements in Difficult-to-Treat Crohn's DiseaseTreating patients with Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's disease: Among patients with Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's disease (PFCD), in two Phase 3 trials, those who responded to upadacitinib 45 mg were re-randomized to receive maintenance treatment with upadacitinib (15 mg or 30 mg) or placebo for 52 weeks. In this post-hoc analysis, upadacitinib-treated patients showed endoscopic improvements through 52 weeks, regardless of fistula response, as demonstrated by reductions in Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD). Majority of these patients were without an adequate response to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy.Select AbbVie abstracts are highlighted below, and all the 2026 DDW Annual Meeting posters are available here:Abstract TitlePresentation NumberReal-World Switching Rates Among Patients with Crohn's Disease

AbbVie expects an approval decision later this year, which would offer adult CD patients an additional option for induction of Skyrizi. The submission is supported by data from the Phase 3 AFFIRM study evaluating the efficacy and safety of Skyrizi SC induction in adult patients with moderately to severely active CD. In the study, Skyrizi achieved superiority for the co-primary and ranked secondary endpoints at week 12 for induction delivered by SC injection versus placebo. The safety profile of Skyrizi SC induction was consistent with its known profile in CD, with no new safety risks observed.
AbbVie announced it submitted an application to the FDA for a new indication for Rinvoq (upadacitinib) in the treatment of adult and adolescent patients with severe alopecia areata (AA). The submission is supported by data from the Phase 3 UP-AA clinical program in which Rinvoq achieved the primary endpoint as well as key secondary endpoints.
At the 2026 American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Annual Meeting, AbbVie presented key data reinforcing the company's leadership in advancing standards of care across immune-mediated skin diseases. Presentations showcased the efficacy and safety of Skyrizi in psoriatic disease, real-world evidence of minimal disease activity and clinical long-term safety outcomes of Rinvoq in atopic dermatitis (AD), as well as Phase 3 data for Rinvoq in vitiligo and AA. The company also presented data highlighting the safety and efficacy of new and emerging products in AbbVie's aesthetics portfolio, including trenibotulinumtoxinE.
AbbVie announced the FDA approved a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) for the combination regimen of Venclexta (venetoclax) and acalabrutinib for the treatment of previously untreated adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). This approval establishes the Venclexta and acalabrutinib combination as the first all-oral, fixed-duration regimen for previously untreated CLL, offering patients the potential of time off treatment. The approval is supported by data from the Phase 3 AMPLIFY trial.
At the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) Annual Meeting, AbbVie presented Phase 2 data for Elahere in platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC). Results from the IMGN853-0420 trial showed a more than 60 percent objective response rate (ORR) and consistent safety findings with Elahere plus carboplatin followed by a continuation of Elahere monotherapy in patients with folate receptor alpha (FRa)-expressing PSOC. These findings highlight Elahere's potential expanding role across the ovarian cancer treatment continuum.
AbbVie announced it received a Complete Response Letter (CRL) from the FDA regarding the Biologics License Application (BLA) for trenibotulinumtoxinE (trenibotE), a first-in-class botulinum neurotoxin serotype E with a rapid onset of effect and short duration. In its letter, the FDA requested additional information about manufacturing processes. The CRL does not identify any safety or efficacy concerns for trenibotE and does not request additional clinical studies. AbbVie is confident that it can address the FDA's comments promptly and expects to submit a thorough response in the coming months.
AbbVie announced positive topline results from the multiple ascending dose (MAD) part of its Phase 1 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ABBV-295, in adults with a mean body mass index (BMI) of less than 30 kg/m2. In the study, ABBV-295 treatment showed clinically meaningful body weight reduction at week 12 (weekly dosing) and week 13 (every other week and monthly dosing after week 5). ABBV-295 also demonstrated a favorable tolerability profile at all evaluated dose levels, with no serious adverse events reported. Data support continued development of ABBV-295 as a potentially differentiated treatment for chronic weight management, with a non-incretin-based mechanism of action.
AbbVie announced a $1.4 billion investment to build a 185-acre pharmaceutical manufacturing campus in Durham, North Carolina. The state-of-the-art campus will integrate advanced manufacturing and laboratory technologies with artificial intelligence (AI) to support the production of AbbVie's immunology, neuroscience and oncology medicines.AbbVie announced a $380 million investment to build two new active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing facilities at its North Chicago, Illinois, campus. These state-of-the-art facilities will integrate advanced manufacturing technologies with AI to support the production of AbbVie's next-generation neuroscience and obesity medications.
AbbVie announced the opening of the Allergan Medical Institute (AMI) Training Center in Austin, Texas. This location marks the third U.S. AMI Training Center opened in the last year, reflecting AbbVie's continued investment in aesthetics training and education.Full-Year 2026 OutlookAbbVie is raising its adjusted diluted EPS guidance for the full year 2026 from $13.96 - $14.16 to $14.08 - $14.28, which includes an unfavorable impact of $0.41 per share related to acquired IPR&D and milestones expense incurred year-to-date through the first quarter 2026. The company's 2026 adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes any impact from acquired IPR&D and milestones that may be incurred beyond the first quarter of 2026, as both cannot be reliably forecasted.About AbbVieAbbVie's mission is to discover and deliver innovative medicines and solutions that solve serious health issues today and address the medical challenges of tomorrow.

AbbVie Submits Regulatory Application to FDA for SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa) Subcutaneous Induction for Adults with Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's DiseaseApril 27, 2026 8:05 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Submission supported by data from Phase 3 pivotal AFFIRM study If approved, adult Crohn's disease patients will have an additional option for induction of risankizumab-rzaa which is already approved for intravenous (IV) inductionNORTH CHICAGO, Ill., April 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that it has submitted an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) seeking approval for SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa) for subcutaneous (SC) induction for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD)."Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects an estimated 1 million Americans, and its impact often reaches beyond the gut as its unpredictability can impact daily life and emotional health for patients," said Kori Wallace, M.D., Ph.D., vice president, global head of immunology clinical development, AbbVie. "AbbVie continues to invest in research and innovative solutions to help elevate the standard of care for patients so that they may live a life unburdened by their Crohn's disease."The application to the FDA is supported by the recently shared positive data from the Phase 3 AFFIRM study1 (NCT06063967), which evaluated the efficacy and safety of risankizumab SC as an induction treatment in adult patients with moderately to severely active CD, including both those with and without prior advanced therapy failure.In 2022, SKYRIZI became the first interleukin-23 (IL-23) specific inhibitor approved by the FDA to treat adults with moderately to severely active CD. AbbVie anticipates FDA approval for this new dosing regimen for SKYRIZI later this year. If approved, patients with moderately to severely active CD would have a choice to receive their SKYRIZI induction via SC injection or through IV infusion and then continue subcutaneous maintenance dosing every eight weeks.About Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic disease that manifests as inflammation within the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the area between the small intestine (ileum) and the colon, causing persistent diarrhea and abdominal pain.2,3 It is a progressive disease, meaning it gets worse over time and may lead to life-threatening complications or surgery.4,5 Because the signs and symptoms of Crohn's disease are unpredictable, it causes a significant burden on people living with the disease—not only physically but also emotionally and economically.6About the AFFIRM Study1
AFFIRM is a global, Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab subcutaneous (SC) as an induction treatment in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Co-primary endpoints were achievement of CDAI Clinical Remission (CDAI < 150) and achievement of endoscopic response at week 12. A total of 289 patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to risankizumab SC or placebo. Key demographics and baseline characteristics were generally balanced between the risankizumab SC and placebo groups; 65% had previously failed advanced therapies for the treatment of CD. The study consists of three treatment periods: a placebo-controlled Period A (baseline to week 12) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab SC induction treatment, an extended Period B (week 12 to 24) where patients receive blinded or open-label treatments based on their clinical response at week 12, and a 52-week open-label extension Period C where all patients receive the approved risankizumab maintenance treatment.1 More information on this trial can be found at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06063967).7About SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa)
SKYRIZI is an interleukin (IL)-23 inhibitor that selectively blocks IL-23 by binding to its p19 subunit. IL-23, a cytokine involved in inflammatory processes, is thought to be linked to a number of chronic immune-mediated diseases.8 SKYRIZI is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.8,9U.S. Indications and Important Safety Information about SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa)8
SKYRIZI is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with:moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who may benefit from taking injections or pills (systemic therapy) or treatment using ultraviolet or UV light (phototherapy).active psoriatic arthritis.moderate to severe Crohn's disease.moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Lichy is opening up about her recent breast augmentation with market-leading Natrelle® breast implants in an effort to promote transparency and normalize conversations around aesthetic procedures. As a mom of four, and after years of breastfeeding, Lichy's decision to pursue breast augmentation is a part of her personal journey towards renewed body positivity. By sharing her story, Lichy aims to support other women considering breast surgery.
"Motherhood and breastfeeding changed my body in ways I didn't fully expect, and I found myself wanting to feel more like me again," said Erin Lichy. "I didn't originally consider breast implants because I was looking for an understated result, but after sharing my aesthetic goals with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ira Savetsky, we chose Natrelle® implants. It was a very educational conversation. We talked about projection, profile, the safety of the implant and how they would look on my body. I'm thrilled with my results, and I'm sharing my experience to help other women feel more confident to explore their own options."As part of her partnership with Natrelle®, Lichy will be sharing her experience from consultation to post-op across her social media channels."Every woman's aesthetic journey is unique. Erin's transparency and willingness to share her story fosters connection for other women," said Nicole Mowad-Nassar, President, Global Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President, AbbVie.

The nationwide initiative invites women who have undergone breast augmentation or reconstruction with Natrelle® implants to share their personal experiences through photos, videos, and written testimonials for a chance to be featured on the brand's social media platforms, and website.To learn more about eligibility and how to submit your story, visit:Augmentation Patients: faces.natrelle.com/augmentationReconstruction Patients: faces.natrelle.com/reconstructionTo learn more about treatment with Natrelle® or find a provider, please visit natrelle.com, and follow along on Instagram @natrellebreastaugmentation and @natrellebreastreconstruction.Natrelle®?Breast Implants IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION AND APPROVED USES Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices. The longer people have them, the greater the chances are that they will develop complications, some of which will require more surgery. Breast implants have been associated with the development of a cancer of the immune system called breast implant–associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). This cancer occurs more commonly in patients with textured breast implants than smooth?implants, although rates are not well defined. Some patients have died from BIA-ALCL. Patients receiving breast implants have reported a variety of systemic symptoms, such as joint pain, muscle aches, confusion, chronic fatigue, autoimmune diseases, and others. Individual patient risk for developing these symptoms has not been well established. Some patients report complete resolution of symptoms when the implants are removed without replacement. Who can get breast implants?
Natrelle®?Breast Implants are approved for the following: Breast augmentation?for women at least 22 years old for silicone-filled implants and for women at least 18 years old for saline-filled implants.?Breast augmentation includes primary breast augmentation to increase the breast size and revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast augmentation Breast reconstruction.?This includes primary breast reconstruction to replace breast tissue that has been removed due to cancer or trauma or that has failed to develop properly due to a severe breast abnormality. This also includes revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast reconstruction Who should NOT get breast implants?
Breast implant surgery should NOT be performed in: Women with active infection anywhere in their body Women with existing cancer or precancer of their breast who have not received adequate treatment for those conditions Women who are currently pregnant or nursing What should I tell my doctor?
Tell your doctor if you have any of the following conditions, as the risks of breast implant surgery may be higher: Autoimmune diseases (eg, lupus and scleroderma) A weakened immune system (eg, taking medications to decrease the body's immune response) Planned chemotherapy or radiation therapy following breast implant placement Conditions or medications that interfere with wound healing and blood clotting Reduced blood supply to breast tissue Clinical diagnosis of depression or other mental health disorders, including body dysmorphic disorder and eating disorders Those with a diagnosis of depression or other mental health disorders should wait for resolution or stabilization of these conditions prior to undergoing breast implantation surgery What else should I consider? There is a Boxed Warning for breast implants. Please see bold text at beginning Many changes to your breasts following implantation are irreversible. If you later choose to have your implants removed and not replaced, you may experience dimpling, puckering, wrinkling, or other cosmetic changes, which may be permanent Breast implantation is likely not a one-time surgery. The longer implants are in place, the greater the potential risk for complications. You will likely need additional surgeries on your breasts due to complications or unacceptable cosmetic results. Thus, you should also consider the complication rates for later (revision) surgery since you may experience these risks in the future Cancer treatments and surgery will affect the outcome and timing of breast reconstruction Breast implants may affect your ability to breastfeed, either by reducing or eliminating milk production Rupture of a silicone-filled breast implant is most often silent. Even if you have no symptoms, you should have your first ultrasound or MRI at 5 to 6 years after your initial implant surgery and then every 2 to 3 years thereafter regardless of whether your implants are for augmentation or reconstruction.?If you have symptoms of or uncertain ultrasound results for breast implant rupture, an MRI is recommended. Additional imaging may be required depending on your medical history and status. The health consequences of a ruptured silicone gel-filled breast implant have not been fully established Routine screening mammography for breast cancer will be more difficult, and implants may rupture during the procedure. Perform self-examination every month for cancer screening and ask your surgeon to help you distinguish the implant from your breast tissue. Lumps, persistent pain, swelling, hardening, or changes in implant shape should be reported to your surgeon and possibly evaluated with imaging What are key complications with breast implants?
Key complications include reoperation, implant removal with or without replacement, implant rupture with silicone-filled implants, implant deflation with saline-filled implants, and capsular contracture (severe scar tissue around the implant). Other complications include breast pain, swelling, asymmetry, wrinkling/rippling, implant malposition nipple complications, hypertrophic scarring, and implant palpability/visibility. Talk to your doctor about other complications. For more information, see the patient brochures at https://www.rxabbvie.com.To report a problem with Natrelle® Breast Implants, please call Allergan® at 1-800-624-4261. The sale and distribution of?Natrelle®?Breast Implants is restricted to licensed physicians who provide information to patients about the risks and benefits of breast implant surgery.

AbbVie Showcases Late-Breaking Phase 2 Data for Mirvetuximab Soravtansine-gynx (ELAHERE®) in Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian Cancer (PSOC) at SGO 2026April 12, 2026 7:15 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Results from the Phase 2 IMGN853-0420 trial show an objective response rate of 62.7% and consistent safety findings with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx (ELAHERE®) plus carboplatin followed by a continuation of mirvetuximab soravtansine monotherapy in patients with ≥50 % folate receptor alpha (FRa)-expressing, platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC).Findings highlight mirvetuximab soravtansine's potential across the ovarian cancer treatment continuum. Data is being presented in a late-breaking oral presentation at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) Annual Meeting. NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., April 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that late-breaking results from the Phase 2 IMGN853-0420 trial will be presented in an oral session at the 2026 Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) Annual Meeting (San Juan, Puerto Rico; April 10-13, 2026). The study evaluated the potential efficacy and safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx, a first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), in combination with carboplatin followed by maintenance of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx monotherapy, in patients with folate receptor alpha (FRa)-expressing, recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC).The multicenter, open-label study enrolled 125 patients with FRa-positive, measurable disease who had received one prior platinum-based chemotherapy regimen. Participants received mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx plus carboplatin every three weeks for six to eight cycles, followed by single-agent mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx as a continuation therapy. Nearly half of patients had prior exposure to a polymerase inhibitor (PARPi), a patient population who may experience reduced responses to subsequent platinum-based chemotherapy.1The primary endpoint of the study was a confirmed objective response rate (ORR) in the ≥50% FRa subgroup after six cycles of combination therapy.2 Key secondary endpoint was ORR after six cycles in the overall population (FRa ≥25%) and additional secondary endpoints included duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). "Despite being considered chemotherapy-responsive, platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC) remains challenging to treat. With each recurrence, responses to standard platinum-based chemotherapy often diminish and patients may experience cumulative toxicities,"3 said Daejin Abidoye, M.D., vice president, therapeutic area head, oncology, solid tumor and hematology, AbbVie. "These results are encouraging and further support the potential of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx in PSOC as a novel treatment regimen."Key highlights from the late-breaking oral presentation include: Response rates across combination regimen: By the end of the induction phase, confirmed ORR was 62.7% (95% CI, 52.6–72.1) in the FRa ≥50% subgroup and 62.4% (95% CI, 53.3–70.9) in the overall population. 81% of patients (101/125) showed no disease progression and continued treatment with single-agent mirvetuximab soravtansine.2 Median DoR was 11.2 months across the overall population.2Additional responses with continuation monotherapy: Among patients who were on the combination and transitioned to mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx monotherapy, ORR was 68% (59.1–76.1) across the overall population.2 Responses in patients with prior exposure to polymerase inhibitor (PARPi): In nearly half of patients (49%) in the overall population (FRa ≥25%) who had prior PARPi exposure, ORR was 63.9% (50.6–75.8).2Safety data: The safety profile of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx was consistent with findings from previous studies. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) with mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx plus carboplatin followed by a continuation of mirvetuximab-soravtansine-gynx alone were low-grade ocular events, including corneal changes that were reversible in over 90% of patients.2 The most common grade ≥3 TRAEs (>5%) were neutropenia (15%), blurred vision (10%), thrombocytopenia (10%), cataract (6%), dry eye (5%), diarrhea (5%) and peripheral sensory neuropathy (5%).2"The combination of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx and carboplatin delivered strong responses in this Phase 2 study and many patients continued to experience responses during the monotherapy treatment phase," said Gottfried E. Konecny, M.D., Professor of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and primary investigator. "These findings support further investigation of a novel treatment approach that integrates antibody drug conjugates with standard chemotherapy in patients with folate receptor alpha (FRa)-expressing recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer and in patients previously treated with PARP inhibitors who often face resistance and remain in need of additional options."The data is being presented during the Rapid-Fire Oral III: Translational and ADC session on Sunday, April 12 at 12:32 PM ET. More information about the 2026 SGO Annual Meeting and abstracts being presented are available here. Further information on AbbVie clinical trials is also available at https://clinicaltrials.gov/. Use of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx plus carboplatin followed by mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx continuation in FRa-expressing recurrent PSOC is not approved in the U.S. or in the E.U. or in any other territory. The safety and efficacy of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx for use as a combination therapy in PSOC have not been established.About the IMGN853-0420 Trial
IMGN853-0420 (NCT05456685) is a multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of carboplatin plus mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx followed by mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx continuation in folate receptor-alpha (FRa) positive (≥25% tumor cells with ≥2+ membrane intensity), recurrent platinum-sensitive high-grade epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer following one prior line of platinum-based chemotherapy. After completing six cycles of mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx plus carboplatin, participants without progressive disease continue on single-agent mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx. Eligibility requires confirmed FRa positivity using the Ventana FOLR1 Assay, ensuring enrollment of participants most likely to benefit from this FRa-targeted ADC approach.About ELAHERE®
ELAHERE® (mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx) is a first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) comprising a folate receptor alpha-binding antibody, cleavable linker and the maytansinoid payload DM4, a potent tubulin inhibitor designed to kill the targeted cancer cells. ELAHERE® is currently indicated for the treatment of adult patients with folate receptor-alpha (FRa) positive, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer, who have received one to three prior systemic treatment regimens. It is being investigated in patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.ELAHERE U.S. USE and IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONWhat is ELAHERE?ELAHERE is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with folate receptor-alpha positive ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer who:have not responded to or are no longer responding to treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy andhave received 1 to 3 prior types of chemotherapy.Your healthcare provider will perform a test to make sure that ELAHERE is right for you.

BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) is indicated in adult patients for the temporary improvement in the appearance of:
- Moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity
- Moderate to severe lateral canthal lines associated with orbicularis oculi activity
- Moderate to severe forehead lines associated with frontalis activity
- Moderate to severe platysma bands associated with platysma muscle activityIMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION, INCLUDING BOXED WARNING WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECT
Postmarketing reports indicate that the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These may include asthenia, generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphagia, dysphonia, dysarthria, urinary incontinence, and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity, but symptoms can also occur in adults treated for spasticity and other conditions, particularly in those patients who have an underlying condition that would predispose them to these symptoms. In unapproved uses and approved indications, cases of spread of effect have been reported at doses comparable to those used to treat cervical dystonia and spasticity and at lower doses.CONTRAINDICATIONS
BOTOX® Cosmetic is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s) and in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation.WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSLack of Equivalency Between Botulinum Toxin ProductsThe potency Units of BOTOX® Cosmetic are specific to the preparation and assay method utilized. BOTOX® Cosmetic is not equivalent to other preparations of botulinum toxin products, and therefore, Units of biological activity of BOTOX® Cosmetic cannot be compared to nor converted into Units of any other botulinum toxin products assessed with any other specific assay method.Spread of Toxin Effect
Please refer to Boxed Warning for Distant Spread of Toxin Effect.No definitive serious adverse event reports of distant spread of toxin effect associated with dermatologic use of BOTOX® Cosmetic at the labeled dose of 20 Units (for glabellar lines), 24 Units (for lateral canthal lines), 40 Units (for forehead lines with glabellar lines), 44 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines and glabellar lines), and 64 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines, glabellar lines, and forehead lines) have been reported. Patients or caregivers should be advised to seek immediate medical care if swallowing, speech, or respiratory disorders occur.Serious Adverse Reactions With Unapproved Use
Serious adverse reactions, including excessive weakness, dysphagia, and aspiration pneumonia, with some adverse reactions associated with fatal outcomes, have been reported in patients who received BOTOX® injections for unapproved uses. In these cases, the adverse reactions were not necessarily related to distant spread of toxin, but may have resulted from the administration of BOTOX® to the site of injection and/or adjacent structures. In several of the cases, patients had preexisting dysphagia or other significant disabilities. There is insufficient information to identify factors associated with an increased risk for adverse reactions associated with the unapproved uses of BOTOX®. The safety and effectiveness of BOTOX® for unapproved uses have not been established.Hypersensitivity Reactions
Serious and/or immediate hypersensitivity reactions have been reported. These reactions include anaphylaxis, serum sickness, urticaria, soft-tissue edema, and dyspnea. If such a reaction occurs, discontinue further injection of BOTOX Cosmetic and immediately institute appropriate medical therapy. One fatal case of anaphylaxis has been reported in which lidocaine was used as the diluent and, consequently, the causal agent cannot be reliably determined.Cardiovascular System
There have been reports following administration of BOTOX® of adverse events involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. Some of these patients had risk factors, including preexisting cardiovascular disease. Use caution when administering to patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease.Increased Risk of Clinically Significant Effects With Preexisting Neuromuscular Disorders
Patients with neuromuscular disorders may be at increased risk of clinically significant effects, including generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphonia, dysarthria, severe dysphagia, and respiratory compromise from onabotulinumtoxinA (see Warnings and Precautions). Monitor individuals with peripheral motor neuropathic diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or neuromuscular junction disorders (eg, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome) when given botulinum toxin.Dysphagia and Breathing Difficulties
Treatment with BOTOX® and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breathing difficulties. Patients with preexisting swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing (see Boxed Warning).Preexisting Conditions at the Injection Site
Use caution when BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment is used in the presence of inflammation at the proposed injection site(s) or when excessive weakness or atrophy is present in the target muscle(s).Dry Eye in Patients Treated With BOTOX® Cosmetic
There have been reports of dry eye associated with BOTOX® Cosmetic injection in or near the orbicularis oculi muscle. If symptoms of dry eye (eg, eye irritation, photophobia, or visual changes) persist, consider referring patients to an ophthalmologist.Human Albumin and Transmission of Viral Diseases
This product contains albumin, a derivative of human blood. Based on effective donor screening and product manufacturing processes, it carries a remote risk for transmission of viral diseases and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). There is a theoretical risk for transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), which would also be considered remote. No cases of transmission of viral diseases, CJD, or vCJD have ever been identified for licensed albumin or albumin contained in other licensed products.ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for glabellar lines were eyelid ptosis (3%), facial pain (1%), facial paresis (1%), and muscular weakness (1%).The most frequently reported adverse reaction following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for lateral canthal lines was eyelid edema (1%).The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for forehead lines with glabellar lines were headache (9%), brow ptosis (2%), and eyelid ptosis (2%).The safety profile of BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment of platysma bands is consistent with the known safety profile of BOTOX® Cosmetic for other indications.DRUG INTERACTIONS
Coadministration of BOTOX® Cosmetic and aminoglycosides or other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission (eg, curare-like compounds) should only be performed with caution as the effect of the toxin may be potentiated. Use of anticholinergic drugs after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic may potentiate systemic anticholinergic effects.The effect of administering different botulinum neurotoxin products at the same time or within several months of each other is unknown. Excessive neuromuscular weakness may be exacerbated by administration of another botulinum toxin prior to the resolution of the effects of a previously administered botulinum toxin.Excessive weakness may also be exaggerated by administration of a muscle relaxant before or after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic.USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
There are no studies or adequate data from postmarketing surveillance on the developmental risk associated with use of BOTOX® Cosmetic in pregnant women. There are no data on the presence of BOTOX® Cosmetic in human or animal milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production.Please see BOTOX® Cosmetic full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide.SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM® Injectable Gel Important InformationINDICATIONS

This 'undetectable' era refers to a shift in aesthetic procedures towards patients seeking results that are subtle, natural-looking, leave no obvious traces of treatment, and are only noticeable to themselves and close acquaintances.1,33 The research reveals that today's patients don't want to look treated, they want a natural look.1,2,33,‡ This shift has already been seen in celebrity circles and amongst influencers appearing to adopt the approach with almost imperceptible aesthetic enhancements.33,34This 'undetectable' look relies on a carefully considered approach; product, quantity, and placement is key, and practitioners must employ a holistic strategy that centers around a full-face consultation. With the right product in expert hands, JUVÉDERM®'s portfolio of versatile, patented HA injectables can help achieve a refreshed, lifted, natural look, with almost imperceptible results that define the 'undetectable' aesthetics era.7-13,17,35-38, ,#,**"Natural-looking for me means preserving the patient's beauty. And that's exactly why I love the word 'undetectable.' I fully welcome the new 'undetectable era', because to achieve an undetectable look, it's important to respect the aging process and provide a natural-looking result," says Dr Juliana Chieppe, a worldclass dermatologist from Brazil who was interviewed for the research and discussed the findings on the panel at the congress.Global Patient Demand for 'Undetectable' AestheticsLayered Beauty: The New Aesthetic Mindset, is a new report launched by Allergan Aesthetics at AMWC 2026, which aims to help healthcare professionals better understand consumer needs and behaviors. The report further uncovered the shift towards 'undetectable' aesthetics. Key findings from global research39 across more than 12,000 beauty-involved consumers in nine countries found that:74% like their aesthetic results to look undetectable3971% worry about looking fake or overdone3985% like results that look natural and subtle3984% prefer products and/or treatments that give a natural-looking appearance3981% value personalized plans designed for their face and aesthetic needs39The Role of the Practitioner and HA Injectables in the 'Undetectable' Aesthetics EraAs healthcare practitioners will attest, a truly individual outcome, definitive of the 'undetectable' era, begins with the consultation.1,35,40,41 With Allergan Aesthetics' versatile JUVÉDERM® Collection of Fillers, practitioners can combine their expert knowledge and innate artistry to deliver each patient's interpretation of natural-looking beauty.7-14,42-45, ,**,# These healthcare providers leverage injection techniques that are strategically placed to lift, balance, restore volume, and enhance, and play an integral role in the 'undetectable' aesthetics era.7-14,17,35-38,40,46 HA injectables can create personalized effects that are long-lastingO, naturally fade with time, and can provide a refreshed look.7-14,24-26,31,32,35,40,47,48"HA Injectables can be tailored for the patient's needs, in addition to being supported with science-based data and a well-established safety profile and being reversible. Some injectables are 'one size fits all', and don't offer the precise tailoring of the amount that is possible with HA injectables," says Dr Juliana Chieppe.1,7-13,15-20,23-28,30,31Mark Wilson, Senior Vice President at International Allergan Aesthetics said, "In a world where 'natural' is almost impossible to define, we herald this new 'undetectable' era, which provides the language for patients to communicate, and practitioners to understand, that patients still want to look like themselves, just more glowing, healthy, and rested. Patients are seeking personalized and almost imperceptible enhancements that complement their natural features. JUVÉDERM®'s market-leading collection of HA injectables offers our practitioners the versatility to help patients achieve results that are aligned with the best version of themselves, as sought after in this 'undetectable' aesthetics era." 7-14,35,36How Allergan Aesthetics Helps Practitioners Meet Modern Patient GoalsWhile the notion of 'undetectable' aesthetics demands the highest quality product, it cannot be achieved authentically without referencing and respecting a patient's individuality. Allergan Aesthetics champions the individual approach and versatility of HA injectables and is paving the way for multimodal treatments with its innovative AA SignatureTM treatment approach.7-14,35,41,47,48 AA SignatureTM is designed to support healthcare professionals in meeting modern patient goals by using Allergan Aesthetics' advanced, versatile portfolio of products including the JUVÉDERM® Collection of Fillers.7,8,46,49-54Whether used alone or synergistically with other modalities as part of a multi-layered facial harmonization plan, HA injectables elevate and enhance other treatments, delivering powerful, personalized results.7-14,17,35-38,40,46,,**For decades, JUVÉDERM® has led the non-invasive aesthetics market with a collection of HA injectables that help patients achieve desirable, long-lastingO results.5,6,24-26,30,31,47,48,?Whether the focus is restoring volume, improving facial contours, or balancing proportions, JUVÉDERM®'s HA injectables allow practitioners to enhance or augment specific areas of the face based on patients' aesthetic goals and unique anatomy, supporting a patient's individuality.7-14,17,35-38,40,46, ,**,# With the 'undetectable' era set to dominate the beauty landscape in 2026, the power of HA injectables has never been more clear.1 Able to refine, define, and balance natural facial characteristics with efficacy, safety, and versatility, JUVÉDERM® reaffirms its central role in the future of holistic ageing and supporting subtle, natural-looking,**,# results.7-14,17-28,30-32,35-38, ††,‡‡,§§, ,**,#Celebrating 10 Years of MD CodesTM at AMWC

Allergan Aesthetics is heralding the era of 'undetectable' aesthetics, informed by its international research involving HCP interviews, consumer insights, industry reports, and social listening intelligence.'Undetectable' refers to an aesthetic aspiration towards subtle, natural-looking, and discreet outcomes, rather than a definitive result.To assess the current and future landscape for HA Injectables, VML conducted the following analysis on behalf of Allergan Aesthetics1:Comprehensive review of Allergan Aesthetics' proprietary global research, encompassing qualitative, quantitative, and existing social intelligence into HA injectables focused on the category, consumers, and HCPs.To understand patient and HCP conversation around HA injectables in Brazil, Thailand, and the United Kingdom, custom social listening intelligence research was conducted using the Talkwalker platform for the period January 2024 to June 2025. A further custom social listening exercise was conducted in China for the same period using the Wisers platform in August 2025.In-depth interviews with ten HCPs in Brazil, Canada, China, Thailand, and the UK were conducted in September 2025, including Dr. Babak Esfahani, Plastic & Aesthetic Surgeon (Germany), Dr. Apul Parikh, Aesthetic Doctor (UK), and Dr. Juliana Chieppe, Dermatologist (Brazil), who will form part of the panel at AMWC.About Layered Beauty: The New Aesthetic Mindset
To better understand how today's culture is reshaping aesthetic decision-making, Allergan Aesthetics commissioned a large-scale global research study spanning nine countries (Canada, United States, United Kingdom, China, Brazil, France, Germany, Thailand, and KSA) and more than 12,286 beauty-involved consumers. The study explored evolving attitudes, treatment behaviors, and expectations around combination and multimodal approaches to aesthetics, revealing a clear shift away from isolated, single interventions towards the need for integrated, personalized treatment plans delivered over time. This research was undertaken to help Allergan Aesthetics better understand these changing behaviors and support the development of structured approaches to treatment such as AA Signature™, reflecting how patients now approach aesthetics. The research was carried out in November and December 2025.About AbbVie

Allergan Aesthetics Reveals Evolution in Approach to Modern Aesthetic Treatments with Comprehensive Global Survey and New Educational SolutionsMarch 19, 2026 3:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)
Global data from over 12,000 consumers signals the future of modern aesthetics will be multimodal treatment plans and holistic, natural results
Comprehensive data-based educational solutions to be presented at the Aesthetic and Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress 2026 (AMWC) in MonacoIRVINE, Calif., March 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company (NYSE: ABBV) and global leader in medical aesthetics, today announced new global consumer research highlighting how patient expectations in medical aesthetics are evolving, and will present the next evolution of its AA Signature™ framework, to address this changing treatment need, at the AMWC 2026 in Monaco."Medical aesthetics is entering an exciting era, where patients are embracing a broader, more holistic perspective on their treatment journeys," remarked Mark Wilson, Senior Vice President, International, Allergan Aesthetics. "Our latest research offers compelling evidence of the shift in expectations – underscoring trends practitioners are already seeing in the clinic," Wilson continued. "Patients are not only increasingly willing to explore treatment combinations, but they are seeking greater clarity and truly bespoke plans to guide them towards authentic, natural-looking results over time."The findings are based on one of the largest global consumer studies exploring attitudes toward aesthetic treatments, surveying more than 12,000 beauty-involved consumers across nine countries.1 The research provides new insight into how patients are navigating an expanding range of aesthetic options and the growing role practitioners play in guiding treatment decisions."At AMWC, our program provides a tangible demonstration of how Allergan Aesthetics has built a portfolio and education platform to help healthcare professionals deliver the results their patients' want. We continue to learn and evolve our proprietary multimodal approach, AA Signature™ through the introduction of elevated Signature Looks" Wilson continued. "Our proven portfolio is designed not only to perform individually, but to integrate seamlessly with one another and alongside other modalities. Through structured treatment frameworks, science and education, we're helping practitioners deliver personalised outcomes within holistic aesthetic treatment plans."At AMWC 2026, Allergan Aesthetics will launch the research findings in a new report Layered Beauty: The New Aesthetic Mindset. The report highlights that 62% find multiple aesthetic treatments appealing1, 59% are likely to adopt a structured multi-treatment approach1 and 78% would feel more satisfied with their aesthetic journey working to an agreed long-term plan with their practitioner.1AA Signature™: One Year OnAA Signature™ was developed in collaboration with experts as a portfolio-led framework to support personalised, multimodal treatment planning. One year on, AA Signature™ is evolving to include new elevated looks, expanded indications and enhanced product integration, reflecting changing patient expectations.Allergan Aesthetics' new research found that 74% intend to improve facial skin quality in the next 12 months,1 while 63% cite improving elasticity and addressing ageing as top aesthetic goals1(p33). Around 30% identify skin quality improvement as the starting point for a multi-treatment plan.1Introducing AA Signature™ Skin360+Designed around the way the skin behaves across layers and dimensions, AA Signature™ Skin 360+ was driven by real-world consumer needs and reinforces Allergan Aesthetics' commitment to continuously evolve how its portfolio works alone, and in combination with other modalities. At AMWC 2026 Allergan Aesthetics and globally recognised faculty will provide structured guidance to support sequential treatment planning, integrating injectable treatments with energy-based devices.AMI Programme at AMWC 2026Allergan Aesthetics will bring the research insights and AA Signature™ evolution to life through two flagship symposia delivered by the Allergan Medical Institute (AMI).Day One 26 March at 10:45- 12:45: AA Signature: Personalized Multimodal Skin Journeys for the Modern Aesthetic Patient

REF REF-145017Notes to editors: AA Signature
AA Signature™ is a multimodal portfolio-based approach to treatment that integrates Allergan Aesthetics' leading products, AMI training, and services to deliver a personalized treatment approach, whether patients are looking for lift, more definition or improved skin quality.About the research To better understand how today's culture is reshaping aesthetic decision-making, Allergan Aesthetics commissioned a large-scale global research study spanning nine countries (Canada, United States, United Kingdom, China, Brazil, France, Germany, Thailand and KSA) and more than 12,286 beauty-involved consumers. The study explored evolving attitudes, treatment behaviours and expectations around combination and multimodal approaches to aesthetics, revealing a clear shift away from isolated, single interventions towards the need for integrated, personalised treatment plans delivered over time. This research was undertaken to help Allergan Aesthetics better understand these changing behaviours and support the development of structured approaches to treatment such as AA Signature™, reflecting how patients now approach aesthetics. The research was carried out in November and December 2025.BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) Important InformationIndications BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) is indicated in adult patients for the temporary improvement in the appearance of:
- Moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity
- Moderate to severe lateral canthal lines associated with orbicularis oculi activity
- Moderate to severe forehead lines associated with frontalis activity
- Moderate to severe platysma bands associated with platysma muscle activityIMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION, INCLUDING BOXED WARNING WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECT Postmarketing reports indicate that the effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These may include asthenia, generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphagia, dysphonia, dysarthria, urinary incontinence, and breathing difficulties. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity, but symptoms can also occur in adults treated for spasticity and other conditions, particularly in those patients who have an underlying condition that would predispose them to these symptoms. In unapproved uses and approved indications, cases of spread of effect have been reported at doses comparable to those used to treat cervical dystonia and spasticity and at lower doses. CONTRAINDICATIONS
BOTOX® Cosmetic is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s) and in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation.WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Lack of Equivalency Between Botulinum Toxin Products
The potency Units of BOTOX® Cosmetic are specific to the preparation and assay method utilized. BOTOX® Cosmetic is not equivalent to other preparations of botulinum toxin products, and therefore, Units of biological activity of BOTOX® Cosmetic cannot be compared to nor converted into Units of any other botulinum toxin products assessed with any other specific assay method.Spread of Toxin Effect
Please refer to Boxed Warning for Distant Spread of Toxin Effect.No definitive serious adverse event reports of distant spread of toxin effect associated with dermatologic use of BOTOX® Cosmetic at the labeled dose of 20 Units (for glabellar lines), 24 Units (for lateral canthal lines), 40 Units (for forehead lines with glabellar lines), 44 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines and glabellar lines), and 64 Units (for simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines, glabellar lines, and forehead lines) have been reported. Patients or caregivers should be advised to seek immediate medical care if swallowing, speech, or respiratory disorders occur.Serious Adverse Reactions With Unapproved Use
Serious adverse reactions, including excessive weakness, dysphagia, and aspiration pneumonia, with some adverse reactions associated with fatal outcomes, have been reported in patients who received BOTOX® injections for unapproved uses. In these cases, the adverse reactions were not necessarily related to distant spread of toxin, but may have resulted from the administration of BOTOX® to the site of injection and/or adjacent structures. In several of the cases, patients had preexisting dysphagia or other significant disabilities. There is insufficient information to identify factors associated with an increased risk for adverse reactions associated with the unapproved uses of BOTOX®. The safety and effectiveness of for unapproved uses have not been established.Hypersensitivity Reactions
Serious and/or immediate hypersensitivity reactions have been reported. These reactions include anaphylaxis, serum sickness, urticaria, soft-tissue edema, and dyspnea. If such a reaction occurs, discontinue further injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic and immediately institute appropriate medical therapy. One fatal case of anaphylaxis has been reported in which lidocaine was used as the diluent and, consequently, the causal agent cannot be reliably determined.Cardiovascular System
There have been reports following administration of BOTOX® of adverse events involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. Some of these patients had risk factors, including preexisting cardiovascular disease. Use caution when administering to patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease.Increased Risk of Clinically Significant Effects With Preexisting Neuromuscular Disorders
Patients with neuromuscular disorders may be at increased risk of clinically significant effects, including generalized muscle weakness, diplopia, ptosis, dysphonia, dysarthria, severe dysphagia, and respiratory compromise from onabotulinumtoxinA (see Warnings and Precautions). Monitor individuals with peripheral motor neuropathic diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or neuromuscular junction disorders (eg, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome) when given botulinum toxin.Dysphagia and Breathing Difficulties
Treatment with BOTOX® and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breathing difficulties. Patients with preexisting swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing (see Boxed Warning).Preexisting Conditions at the Injection Site
Use caution when BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment is used in the presence of inflammation at the proposed injection site(s) or when excessive weakness or atrophy is present in the target muscle(s).Dry Eye in Patients Treated With BOTOX® Cosmetic
There have been reports of dry eye associated with BOTOX® Cosmetic injection in or near the orbicularis oculi muscle. If symptoms of dry eye (eg, eye irritation, photophobia, or visual changes) persist, consider referring patients to an ophthalmologist.Human Albumin and Transmission of Viral Diseases
This product contains albumin, a derivative of human blood. Based on effective donor screening and product manufacturing processes, it carries a remote risk for transmission of viral diseases and variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD). There is a theoretical risk for transmission of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), which would also be considered remote. No cases of transmission of viral diseases, CJD, or vCJD have ever been identified for licensed albumin or albumin contained in other licensed products.ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for glabellar lines were eyelid ptosis (3%), facial pain (1%), facial paresis (1%), and muscular weakness (1%).The most frequently reported adverse reaction following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for lateral canthal lines was eyelid edema (1%).The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic for forehead lines with glabellar lines were headache (9%), brow ptosis (2%), and eyelid ptosis (2%).The safety profile of BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment of platysma bands is consistent with the known safety profile of BOTOX® Cosmetic for other indications.DRUG INTERACTIONS
Coadministration of BOTOX® Cosmetic and aminoglycosides or other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission (eg, curare-like compounds) should only be performed with caution as the effect of the toxin may be potentiated. Use of anticholinergic drugs after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic may potentiate systemic anticholinergic effects.The effect of administering different botulinum neurotoxin products at the same time or within several months of each other is unknown. Excessive neuromuscular weakness may be exacerbated by administration of another botulinum toxin prior to the resolution of the effects of a previously administered botulinum toxin.Excessive weakness may also be exaggerated by administration of a muscle relaxant before or after administration of BOTOX® Cosmetic.USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
There are no studies or adequate data from postmarketing surveillance on the developmental risk associated with use of BOTOX® Cosmetic in pregnant women.

AbbVie Announces Positive Topline Results from a Phase 1 Multiple Ascending Dose Study of ABBV-295, a Long-Acting Amylin Analog, in AdultsMarch 9, 2026 8:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)
ABBV-295 treatment showed clinically meaningful body weight reduction from -7.75% to -9.79% (least-squares mean) at week 12 (weekly dosing), to -7.86% to -9.73% at week 13 (every other week and monthly dosing after week 5)1ABBV-295 demonstrated a favorable tolerability profile at all evaluated dose levels. No serious adverse events were reported1Data support continued development of ABBV-295 as a potentially differentiated treatment for chronic weight management, with a non-incretin-based mechanism of action
NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., March 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced positive topline results1 from the multiple ascending dose (MAD) part of its Phase 1 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of subcutaneous ABBV-295, in adults with a mean body mass index (BMI) of less than 30 kg/m2. ABBV-295 is a long-acting amylin analog that represents a mechanistically distinct class from incretin-based therapies such as GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists. Study enrollment mostly comprised male participants (88.3%). Different doses (2-14 mg), titrations and dose frequencies were tested in the study. ABBV-295 was generally well tolerated across all dose levels evaluated. The most commonly reported adverse events were gastrointestinal disorders, which were mostly mild, and predominantly occurred during the first 6 weeks of treatment.1ABBV-295 demonstrated clinically meaningful, dose-dependent reductions in body weight from baseline, over a 12-13-week treatment period. In the ABBV-295 treated groups dose-dependent least-squares (LS) mean percentage change in body weight ranged from -7.75% to -9.79% at week 12 (for weekly dosing groups), to -7.86% to -9.73% at week 13 (for every other week dosing group and monthly dosing group after week 5), compared to -0.26% and -0.25% in the placebo group at week 12 and week 13, respectively.1 "Obesity is a complex, chronic disease that places a substantial burden on patients, healthcare systems and society, and there remains a critical need for therapies that combine efficacy with tolerability and support long-term adherence," said Primal Kaur, M.D., senior vice president, global development of immunology, neuroscience, eye care and specialty at AbbVie. "We are encouraged by these early results for ABBV-295, which demonstrate meaningful weight loss together with a well-tolerated safety profile. These initial results further reinforce the potential of ABBV-295 as a novel therapeutic option for people living with obesity."Results from the single ascending doses (SAD) part and other cohorts from the MAD part of the study were announced previously. Full data from the study will be presented at a future scientific conference.Summary of Phase 1 MAD Study Key Results1 (Percent Change from Baseline in Body Weight at Week 12 and Week 13)CohortaLS Mean (95% CI) at week 12bLS Mean (95% CI) at week 13bAll Placebo-0.26 (-1.89, 1.37)-0.25 (-1.88, 1.38)Cohort 3 (weekly dosing) -7.75 (-9.89, -5.61)-Cohort 4 (weekly dosing) -8.70 (-10.75, -6.65)-Cohort 5a (weekly dosing) -9.79 (-11.99, -7.59)-Cohort 5b (every other week dosing)-7.76 (-9.82, -5.70)-9.73 (-11.79, -7.67)Cohort 6 (monthly dosing after week 5)-6.74 (-8.70, -4.79)-7.86 (-9.80, -5.91)a Doses from 2mg to 14mg were tested using different dose escalations and dosing frequencies.b LS mean estimates were derived using a Mixed Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM). Participants were required to adhere to the dosing plan and those unable to continue treatment were withdrawn from the study with no further efficacy data collected.About ABBV-295
ABBV-295 is an investigational, long-acting amylin analog being developed for the treatment of obesity. It is an agonist that specifically activates amylin and calcitonin receptors. Amylin, a satiety hormone, has been identified as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity given its role in activating signals to the brain that result in appetite suppression and the reduction of food intake, while also acting as an inhibitory signal to delay gastric emptying. ABBV-295 has not been approved by any health regulatory authority worldwide. The safety and efficacy of ABBV-295 have not been established.About the Phase 1 GUC17-01 Study
The Phase 1 clinical trial is a two-part, single center, double-blind (within cohorts), randomized, placebo-controlled, single (Part 1) and multiple (Part 2) ascending dose study of subcutaneous ABBV-295 (GUB014295). A total of 76 participants were enrolled in the MAD study. More information on this trial can be found at https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ (NCT06144684). About AbbVie

AbbVie Announces Positive Topline Results from Phase 3 AFFIRM Study Evaluating SKYRIZI® (Risankizumab) Subcutaneous Induction in Patients with Crohn's DiseaseMarch 2, 2026 8:30 AM
PR Newswire (US)
In the Phase 3 AFFIRM study in adults with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease, risankizumab (SKYRIZI®) achieved superiority for the co-primary and ranked secondary endpoints at week 12 for induction delivered by subcutaneous (SC) injection versus placebo1These data support strong efficacy of risankizumab in Crohn's disease while providing potential for an induction choice for patients1The safety profile of risankizumab SC induction was consistent with its known profile in Crohn's disease, with no new safety risks observed1NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., March 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced positive topline results from the Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind AFFIRM study evaluating the efficacy and safety of risankizumab (SKYRIZI®) subcutaneous (SC) induction treatment versus placebo in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD).1The AFFIRM study results show significantly greater proportions of patients treated with risankizumab SC induction achieved the co-primary endpoints of Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) clinical remissiona (55% vs. 30%; p50% from baseline or for patients with isolated ileal disease and a baseline SES-CD of 4, at least a 2-point reduction from baseline, as scored by blinded central reviewer at week 12.1cDefined as at least a 100-point reduction from baseline in CDAI.1"Crohn's disease is a complex, often debilitating condition that affects far more than a patient's digestive health, disrupting work, relationships and daily life," said Millie D. Long, M.D., MPH, chief, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and lead investigator of the AFFIRM study. "These high endoscopic response rates across populations, in particular among those who have not failed an advanced therapy, demonstrate the potential of subcutaneous induction risankizumab as an effective therapy for Crohn's disease."During the 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled period, the safety profile of risankizumab SC was consistent with the safety profile observed in Crohn's disease with no new safety risks observed. The most common adverse events observed among patients receiving risankizumab were upper respiratory tract infection, abdominal pain and arthralgia. Serious adverse events occurred in 0.5% of patients in the risankizumab SC group compared to 3.1% in the placebo group.1Full results will be published in an upcoming medical journal and shared at future medical congresses.About Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic disease that manifests as inflammation within the gastrointestinal tract, most commonly in the area between the small intestine (ileum) and the colon, causing persistent diarrhea and abdominal pain.2,3 It is a progressive disease, meaning it gets worse over time and may lead to life-threatening complications or surgery.4,5 Because the signs and symptoms of Crohn's disease are unpredictable, it causes a significant burden on people living with the disease—not only physically but also emotionally and economically.6About the AFFIRM Study1
AFFIRM is a global, Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab subcutaneous (SC) as an induction treatment in adult patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Co-primary endpoints were percentage of participants with CDAI Clinical Remission (CDAI < 150) and percentage of participants with endoscopic response at week 12. A total of 289 patients were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to risankizumab SC or placebo. Key demographics and baseline characteristics were generally balanced between the risankizumab SC and placebo groups; 65% had failed advanced therapies for the treatment of CD before. The study consists of three treatment periods: a placebo-controlled Period A (baseline to week 12) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab SC induction treatment, an extended Period B (week 12 to 24) where patients receive blinded or open-label treatments based on their clinical response at week 12, and a 52-week open-label extension Period C where all patients receive the approved risankizumab maintenance treatment.1 More information on this trial can be found at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT06063967).7About SKYRIZI® (risankizumab)
SKYRIZI is an interleukin (IL)-23 inhibitor that selectively blocks IL-23 by binding to its p19 subunit. IL-23, a cytokine involved in inflammatory processes, is thought to be linked to a number of chronic immune-mediated diseases.8 SKYRIZI is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for the treatment of plaque psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.8,9SKYRIZI® (risankizumab-rzaa) U.S. Uses and Important Safety Information8IndicationsSKYRIZI is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with:moderate to severe plaque psoriasis who may benefit from taking injections or pills (systemic therapy) or treatment using ultraviolet or UV light (phototherapy).active psoriatic arthritis.moderate to severe Crohn's disease.moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Approves Combination Treatment of VENCLEXTA® (venetoclax) and Acalabrutinib for Previously Untreated Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)February 20, 2026 2:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)
First all-oral, fixed-duration combination regimen approved for previously untreated patients with CLL Approval supported by data from the Phase 3 AMPLIFY trialRegimen offers another option for the potential of time off treatment, marking a meaningful advance in long-term disease managementNORTH CHICAGO, Ill., Feb. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) for the combination regimen of VENCLEXTA® (venetoclax) and acalabrutinib for the treatment of previously untreated adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The approval is supported by data from the Phase 3 AMPLIFY trial.1This milestone updates the treatment of CLL in the first-line setting, establishing the VENCLEXTA and acalabrutinib combination as the first and only all-oral, fixed-duration regimen for previously untreated patients. The regimen supports current standards of care by offering patients the potential for time off treatment and giving providers a new, targeted option that combines two classes of oral medications for CLL."This FDA approval marks a significant milestone for AbbVie and, more importantly, for people living with CLL," said Svetlana Kobina, vice president, global medical affairs, oncology, AbbVie. "As the first and only all-oral, fixed-duration combination regimen for previously untreated patients, the VENCLEXTA plus acalabrutinib approval expands choice and flexibility for patients and providers navigating complex treatment decisions in CLL."CLL is one of the most common forms of leukemia in adults and is a type of cancer that can develop from cells in the bone marrow that later mature into certain white blood cells (called lymphocytes).2 While outcomes have improved in recent years, patients often face long treatment durations and ongoing disease management challenges."With the FDA approval of the combination of venetoclax and acalabrutinib for use as a front-line therapy in CLL, patients in the USA now have an all oral, time-limited option that can be important for many in choosing their treatment," said Dr. Brian Koffman, co-founder and chief medical officer emeritus, CLL Society. "CLL Society is pleased to see the number of choices available for patients growing."About the AMPLIFY Study
AMPLIFY is an AstraZeneca-sponsored, global, multi-center Phase 3 trial evaluating VENCLEXTA plus acalabrutinib alone or combined with obinutuzumab versus chemoimmunotherapy (investigator's choice of fludarabine-cyclophosphamide-rituximab [FCR] or bendamustine-rituximab [BR]) in patients with previously untreated CLL without del(17p) or TP53 mutation.1 VENCLEXTA plus acalabrutinib were administered for a fixed duration of 14 cycles, each consisting of 28 days, while chemoimmunotherapy was administered for six cycles according to regimens. VENCLEXTA was started on cycle 3 of 14 with a 5-week ramp-up schedule.Results from the AMPLIFY study showed that the fixed-duration combination regimen of VENCLEXTA and acalabrutinib was superior to FCR/BR chemoimmunotherapy. Study results showed the combination regimen of VENCLEXTA and acalabrutinib reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 35% versus chemoimmunotherapy (HR 0.65; 95% CI: 0.49-0.87; p=0.0038). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached versus 47.6 months for chemoimmunotherapy. The safety profile of the VENCLEXTA and acalabrutinib combination regimen is consistent with the known safety profile of each individual therapy alone. In CLL/SLL, the most common adverse reactions (≥20%) for VENCLEXTA when given in combination with acalabrutinib are neutropenia, headache, diarrhea, musculoskeletal pain, and COVID-19. The most common serious adverse reactions (≥2%) in patients receiving V+A were COVID-19, including COVID-19 pneumonia (9%), second primary malignancies (2.7%), and neutropenia (2.1%). In patients treated with VENCLEXTA plus acalabrutinib, the incidence of tumor lysis syndrome was 0.3%. No new safety signals were observed in the AMPLIFY study.3About VENCLEXTA® (venetoclax)
VENCLEXTA (venetoclax) is a first-in-class medicine that selectively binds and inhibits the B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) protein. In some blood cancers, BCL-2 prevents cancer cells from undergoing their natural death or self-destruction process, called apoptosis. VENCLEXTA targets the BCL-2 protein and works to help restore the process of apoptosis.VENCLEXTA is being developed by AbbVie and Roche. It is jointly commercialized by AbbVie and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, in the U.S. and by AbbVie outside of the U.S. Together, the companies are committed to BCL-2 research and to studying venetoclax in clinical trials across several blood and other cancers.

VENCLEXTA is a prescription medicine used:to treat adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).in combination with azacitidine, or decitabine, or low-dose cytarabine to treat adults with
newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who:- are 75 years of age or older, or
- have other medical conditions that prevent the use of standard chemotherapy.It is not known if VENCLEXTA is safe and effective in children.Important Safety Information
What is the most important information I should know about VENCLEXTA?
VENCLEXTA can cause serious side effects, including:Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). TLS is caused by the fast breakdown of cancer cells. TLS can cause kidney failure, the need for dialysis treatment, and may lead to death. Your healthcare provider will do tests to check your risk of getting TLS before you start taking VENCLEXTA. You will receive other medicines before starting and during treatment with VENCLEXTA to help reduce your risk of TLS.You may also need to receive intravenous (IV) fluids into your vein. Your healthcare provider will do blood tests to check for TLS when you first start and during treatment with VENCLEXTA. It is important to keep your appointments for blood tests. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get any symptoms of TLS during treatment with VENCLEXTA, including fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, confusion, shortness of breath, seizures, irregular heartbeat, dark or cloudy urine, unusual tiredness, or muscle or joint pain.Drink plenty of water during treatment with VENCLEXTA to help reduce your risk of getting TLS. Drink 6 to 8 glasses (about 56 ounces total) of water each day, starting 2 days before your first dose, on the day of your first dose of VENCLEXTA, and each time your dose is increased.Your healthcare provider may delay, decrease your dose, or stop treatment with VENCLEXTA if you get symptoms of TLS. When restarting VENCLEXTA after stopping for 1 week or longer, your healthcare provider may check again for your risk of TLS and change your dose.Who should not take VENCLEXTA?
Patients taking certain medicines during the beginning of VENCLEXTA (when the dose is being slowly increased) are at increased risk of TLS.Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the- counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. VENCLEXTA and other medicines may affect each other causing serious side effects.Do not start new medicines during treatment with VENCLEXTA without first talking with your healthcare provider.Before taking VENCLEXTA, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:have kidney or liver problems.have problems with your body salts or electrolytes, such as potassium, phosphorus, or calcium.have a history of high uric acid levels in your blood or gout.are scheduled to receive a vaccine. You should not receive a "live vaccine" before, during, or after treatment with VENCLEXTA, until your healthcare provider tells you it is okay. If you are not sure about the type of immunization or vaccine, ask your healthcare provider. These vaccines may not be safe or may not work as well during treatment with VENCLEXTA.are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. VENCLEXTA may harm your unborn baby.Females who are able to become pregnant:
- Your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment with VENCLEXTA.
- Use effective birth control during treatment and for 30 days after the last dose of VENCLEXTA.
- If you become pregnant or think you are pregnant, tell your healthcare provider right away.are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if VENCLEXTA passes into your breast milk.
Do not breastfeed during treatment with VENCLEXTA and for 1 week after the last dose.What should I avoid while taking VENCLEXTA?
You should not drink grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit, Seville oranges (often used in marmalades), or starfruit during treatment with VENCLEXTA. These products may increase the amount of VENCLEXTA in your blood.What are the possible side effects of VENCLEXTA?
VENCLEXTA can cause serious side effects, including:Low white blood cell counts (neutropenia). Your healthcare provider will do blood tests to check your blood count during treatment with VENCLEXTA and may pause dosing of VENCLEXTA or give you medicines to help treat your neutropenia if it is severe.Infections. Death and serious infections such as pneumonia and blood infection (sepsis) have happened during treatment with VENCLEXTA. Your healthcare provider will closely monitor and treat you right away if you get a fever or any signs of infection during treatment with VENCLEXTA.Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get a fever or any signs of an infection during treatment with VENCLEXTA.The most common side effects of VENCLEXTA when used in combination with acalabrutinib in people with CLL or SLL include low white blood cell count, headache, diarrhea, muscle and bone pain, and COVID-19.The most common side effects of VENCLEXTA when used in combination with obinutuzumab or rituximab or alone in people with CLL or SLL include low white blood cell count; low platelet count; low red blood cell count; diarrhea; nausea; upper respiratory tract infection; cough; muscle and joint pain; tiredness; and swelling of your arms, legs, hands, and feet.The most common side effects of VENCLEXTA in combination with azacitidine or decitabine or low-dose cytarabine in people with AML include nausea; diarrhea; low platelet count; constipation; low white blood cell count; fever with low white blood cell count; tiredness; vomiting; swelling of arms, legs, hands, or feet; fever; infection in lungs; shortness of breath; bleeding; low red blood cell count; rash; stomach (abdominal) pain; infection in your blood; muscle and joint pain; dizziness; cough; sore throat; and low blood pressure.Your healthcare provider may temporarily stop VENCLEXTA treatment, decrease your dose, or completely stop treatment if you get severe side effects.VENCLEXTA may cause fertility problems in males.

Recent EventsAbbVie announced a voluntary agreement with the Trump administration to further advance access and affordability for Americans while protecting and investing in U.S. pharmaceutical innovation. Under the agreement, AbbVie will provide low prices in Medicaid, and expand affordable, direct-to-patient offerings for treatments used by millions of Americans. The company will also commit $100 billion in U.S. R&D and capital investments, including manufacturing, over the next decade. This three-year agreement provides AbbVie with exemption from tariffs and future pricing mandates.
AbbVie announced it submitted applications for a new indication to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for Rinvoq (upadacitinib) in the treatment of adult and adolescent patients living with non-segmental vitiligo. The submissions are supported by data from the Phase 3 Viti-Up clinical trials, in which Rinvoq achieved the co-primary endpoints of 50 percent improvement in total body re-pigmentation (T-VASI 50) and 75 percent improvement in facial re-pigmentation (F-VASI 75) from baseline at week 48. If approved, Rinvoq will be the first systemic treatment for patients with vitiligo, addressing important treatment needs for those living with the chronic, unpredictable autoimmune disease.
AbbVie announced it submitted an application to the EMA for expanded use of Aquipta (atogepant) for the acute treatment of adults with migraine. The submission was supported by data from the pivotal Phase 3 ECLIPSE study, evaluating the safety, efficacy and tolerability of Aquipta versus placebo for the acute treatment of migraine in adults. The study met its primary and key secondary endpoints, with Aquipta demonstrating superiority in pain freedom and freedom from the most bothersome migraine symptom two hours after treatment of the first migraine attack. Study results were shared as a late-breaking presentation at the European Headache Congress.
AbbVie announced the FDA approval of Epkinly (epcoritamab) in combination with rituximab and lenalidomide (R2) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL). The approval is based on results from the Phase 3 EPCORE FL-1 study in which Epkinly with R2 demonstrated significantly superior progression-free survival (PFS) and overall response (OR) rates compared to standard of care R2, with approximately three out of four patients achieving a complete response (CR). This approval marks the third indication for Epkinly and first FDA approval for a bispecific combination therapy in lymphoma. Epkinly is being co-developed by AbbVie and Genmab.
AbbVie announced topline results from the Phase 3 EPCORE DLBCL-1 trial evaluating Epkinly compared to investigator's choice of chemoimmunotherapy in adult patients with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The study demonstrated an improvement in PFS and improvements were observed in CR rates, duration of response and time to next treatment among patients treated with Epkinly. The study did not demonstrate a statistically significant improvement in overall survival (OS). Based on the topline results from the trial, AbbVie along with partner Genmab will engage global regulatory authorities to discuss next steps.
AbbVie and RemeGen announced an exclusive licensing agreement for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of RC148, a novel investigational Programmed Cell Death-1 (PD-1)/Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-targeted bispecific antibody. RC148 is currently being developed by RemeGen as a monotherapy and in combination regimens across multiple advanced solid tumors including certain lung cancers. This transaction further strengthens AbbVie's diverse oncology portfolio and may offer new opportunities to explore combination regimens with AbbVie's antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) such as investigational Temab-A (telisotuzumab adizutecan), across multiple solid tumors with high unmet need.
AbbVie and West Pharmaceutical Services announced a definitive agreement for AbbVie to acquire a device manufacturing facility in Tempe, Arizona and associated intellectual property from West. The acquisition will support production of AbbVie's current and next-generation immunology and neuroscience medicines.Full-Year 2026 OutlookAbbVie is issuing its adjusted diluted EPS guidance for the full-year 2026 of $14.37 to $14.57. The company's 2026 adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes any impact from acquired IPR&D and milestones that may be incurred during 2026, as both cannot be reliably forecasted.About AbbVieAbbVie's mission is to discover and deliver innovative medicines and solutions that solve serious health issues today and address the medical challenges of tomorrow.

Allergan Aesthetics Continues Its Mission of Empowering Women Through the Faces of Natrelle® Testimonial ProgramFebruary 3, 2026 8:50 AM
PR Newswire (US)
The nationwide program invites eligible Natrelle® breast augmentation and reconstruction patients to share their personal experiences.Natrelle® champions women's voices to provide support at every step of their breast aesthetics journey.IRVINE, Calif., Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company (NYSE: ABBV), announced the launch of the Faces of Natrelle® Testimonial Program, a nationwide initiative inviting women to share their real stories and experiences with Natrelle® breast implants to help educate, empower, and support others considering breast surgery.
"Faces of Natrelle® is about honoring the stories, the decisions, and the transformations of women with breast implants," said Nicole Mowad-Nassar, President, Global Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President, AbbVie. "Despite being some of the most popular cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries in the U.S., breast procedures are still often misunderstood due to outdated perceptions and a lingering culture of silence around them.1 We're proud to put a spotlight on these diverse experiences through the Testimonial Program to reflect a growing cultural shift towards transparency and empowerment."Starting today, Natrelle® invites women who underwent breast augmentation or breast reconstruction at age 22 or older to submit a photo or video†, along with a written testimonial describing their experience with Natrelle® Breast Implants for the chance to be featured on the brand's social media platforms, website, and more.Natrelle® recognizes that every breast aesthetics journey is unique—whether driven by personal choice through breast augmentation or medically indicated through breast reconstruction. Each path comes with its own considerations, emotions, and outcomes. By sharing these stories, real patients can offer clarity and confidence to others navigating their own journey.Participants who underwent Natrelle® breast augmentation, and are also Alle® Members, may be eligible to receive $500 in Alle Gift Cards‡ if selected and their content is approved. Terms and Conditions apply. Limited-time offer. While supplies last. Eligibility limitations. See below for details. Reconstruction patients are not eligible for compensation but are encouraged to share their stories to support and inspire others in the breast reconstruction community.Learn more about eligibly and how to apply:Augmentation Patients: faces.natrelle.com/augmentationReconstruction Patients: faces.natrelle.com/reconstruction To learn more about treatment with Natrelle®, the #1 breast implant brand selected by plastic surgeons1* or find a provider, please visit natrelle.com, and follow along on Instagram @natrellebreastaugmentation and @natrellebreastreconstruction.*Based on surgeon survey data, September 2025, n=492†NATRELLE® TESTIMONIAL PROGRAM TERMS & CONDITIONS

Participants are eligible for the testimonial program if they had breast implantation after the age of 22 years old, are a legal resident of one of the fifty United States, including the District of Columbia, and have undergone breast augmentation surgery with Natrelle® Breast Implants in the United States in which two (2) Natrelle® Breast Implants are implanted during the procedure (the "Program Eligible Participants"). Program Eligible Participants may receive five (5) $100 Alle gift cards from Natrelle® for providing content to Natrelle® marketing. The content must meet the following requirements: (1) Submit photos or a video of yourself and a written testimonial about your experience with Natrelle® Breast Implants. Even if a Program Eligible Participant has met the above requirements, Natrelle® may reject a post if it is not consistent with Natrelle® messaging, as determined by Natrelle® in its sole discretion. Program Eligible Participants will not receive any Alle gift cards unless and until their submitted content and testimonial are approved by Natrelle®, in its sole discretion. If approved, Natrelle® will send five (5) $100 Alle gift cards within ninety (90) days via email to the provided email address. The Alle gift cards are subject to limited availability, for a limited time only, and are only available while supplies last.

Must be an Alle Member who resides in one of the fifty United States, including the District of Columbia, to redeem gift cards. Alle gift cards are only redeemable within the United States and are not valid for use in Puerto Rico or other US territories. The Alle gift card is void where prohibited or restricted by law. Alle gift cards do not expire and cannot be applied to past transactions, or redeemed or exchanged for cash. In some states, if the gift card is unused for a number of years, the unused value of the gift card will be turned over to such state, as required by law, through a process called escheatment. Gift cards can be combined with other applicable Alle or brand-specific gift cards, Alle points, or other brand-specific offers.

The longer people have them, the greater the chances are that they will develop complications, some of which will require more surgery.Breast implants have been associated with the development of a cancer of the immune system called breast implant–associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). This cancer occurs more commonly in patients with textured breast implants than smooth implants, although rates are not well defined. Some patients have died from BIA-ALCL.Patients receiving breast implants have reported a variety of systemic symptoms, such as joint pain, muscle aches, confusion, chronic fatigue, autoimmune diseases, and others. Individual patient risk for developing these symptoms has not been well established. Some patients report complete resolution of symptoms when the implants are removed without replacement.Who can get breast implants?
Natrelle® Breast Implants are approved for the following:Breast augmentation for women at least 22 years old for silicone-filled implants and for women at least 18 years old for saline-filled implants. Breast augmentation includes primary breast augmentation to increase the breast size and revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast augmentationBreast reconstruction. This includes primary breast reconstruction to replace breast tissue that has been removed due to cancer or trauma or that has failed to develop properly due to a severe breast abnormality. This also includes revision surgery to correct or improve the result of a primary breast reconstructionWho should NOT get breast implants?
Breast implant surgery should NOT be performed in:Women with active infection anywhere in their bodyWomen with existing cancer or precancer of their breast who have not received adequate treatment for those conditionsWomen who are currently pregnant or nursing What should I tell my doctor?
Tell your doctor if you have any of the following conditions, as the risks of breast implant surgery may be higher:Autoimmune diseases (eg, lupus and scleroderma)A weakened immune system (eg, taking medications to decrease the body's immune response)Planned chemotherapy or radiation therapy following breast implant placementConditions or medications that interfere with wound healing and blood clottingReduced blood supply to breast tissueClinical diagnosis of depression or other mental health disorders, including body dysmorphic disorder and eating disordersThose with a diagnosis of depression or other mental health disorders should wait for resolution or stabilization of these conditions prior to undergoing breast implantation surgeryWhat else should I consider?There is a Boxed Warning for breast implants. Please see bold text at beginningMany changes to your breasts following implantation are irreversible. If you later choose to have your implants removed and not replaced, you may experience dimpling, puckering, wrinkling, or other cosmetic changes, which may be permanentBreast implantation is likely not a one-time surgery. The longer implants are in place, the greater the potential risk for complications. You will likely need additional surgeries on your breasts due to complications or unacceptable cosmetic results. Thus, you should also consider the complication rates for later (revision) surgery since you may experience these risks in the futureCancer treatments and surgery will affect the outcome and timing of breast reconstructionBreast implants may affect your ability to breastfeed, either by reducing or eliminating milk productionRupture of a silicone-filled breast implant is most often silent. Even if you have no symptoms, you should have your first ultrasound or MRI at 5 to 6 years after your initial implant surgery and then every 2 to 3 years thereafter regardless of whether your implants are for augmentation or reconstruction. If you have symptoms of or uncertain ultrasound results for breast implant rupture, an MRI is recommended. Additional imaging may be required depending on your medical history and status. The health consequences of a ruptured silicone gel-filled breast implant have not been fully establishedRoutine screening mammography for breast cancer will be more difficult, and implants may rupture during the procedure. Perform self-examination every month for cancer screening and ask your surgeon to help you distinguish the implant from your breast tissue. Lumps, persistent pain, swelling, hardening, or changes in implant shape should be reported to your surgeon and possibly evaluated with imaging What are key complications with breast implants?
Key complications include reoperation, implant removal with or without replacement, implant rupture with silicone-filled implants, implant deflation with saline-filled implants, and capsular contracture (severe scar tissue around the implant). Other complications include breast pain, swelling, asymmetry, wrinkling/rippling, implant malposition nipple complications, hypertrophic scarring, and implant palpability/visibility.Talk to your doctor about other complications.For more information, see the patient brochures at www.allergan.com/products.
