Incyte Announces Abstracts Accepted for Presentation at the 2019 ASCO Annual Meeting and the 24th Congress of EHA
WILMINGTON, Del.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Incyte Corporation (Nasdaq:INCY) announces that multiple abstracts
highlighting data from its oncology portfolio will be presented at the
upcoming 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual
Meeting, to be held from May 31-June 4, 2019, in Chicago, Illinois; and
the 24th Congress of the European Hematology Association
(EHA), to be held June 13-16, 2019, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
Abstracts accepted for presentation at ASCO feature genomic profiling
data from Incyte’s ongoing Phase 2 FIGHT-202 trial evaluating its
selective fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) inhibitor,
pemigatinib, in patients with cholangiocarcinoma, as well as efficacy
and safety data from the Novartis-sponsored GEOMETRY mono-1 trial
of capmatinib, the investigational selective MET inhibitor licensed to
Novartis by Incyte. Additionally, data to be presented at EHA will
showcase the continued study of Incyte’s JAK1/JAK2 inhibitor,
ruxolitinib, in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs).
“Our presence at ASCO and EHA illustrates Incyte’s ongoing commitment to
discovering and developing therapeutic options that address significant
unmet medical needs for patients,” said Steven Stein, M.D., Chief
Medical Officer, Incyte. “We are pleased to highlight new data on two
investigational medicines – pemigatinib and capmatinib – that were
discovered by Incyte scientists and for which we anticipate applications
for initial U.S. regulatory approvals later this year, as well as data
that furthers our understanding of the treatment of MPNs.”
