Calquence (acalabrutinib) — FDA approval timeline

      > Note: Indications can sometimes include specific eligibility language (e.g., “relapsed/refractory,” “with/without del(17p),” prior therapies). If you tell me the exact indication you care about, I can narrow this to the most relevant FDA labeling/approval entry.

If you want, I can also add:

  • the approval letters/press releases for each date,
  • key trial names tied to each approval (e.g., ELEVATE-TN, ELEVATE-RR, ACE-LY-4),
  • whether approvals were accelerated vs regular and whether label language later changed.

    Which indication are you focusing on: MCL, CLL/SLL, or follicular lymphoma?
