Agios (Nasdaq: AGIO) announced U.S. FDA approval of AQVESME™ (mitapivat) for treatment of anemia in adults with alpha- or beta-thalassemia, covering both non-transfusion-dependent and transfusion-dependent patients.
The approval is based on the randomized ENERGIZE and ENERGIZE-T Phase 3 trials (total 452 patients) that met primary and key secondary endpoints, showing improvements in hemoglobin, fatigue, and transfusion burden. AQVESME will be available in the U.S. in late January 2026 after implementation of an FDA REMS requiring liver tests and education. Five patients experienced adverse reactions suggestive of hepatocellular injury, with two hospitalizations; liver tests improved after discontinuation.
Agios (Nasdaq: AGIO) announced that the U.S. FDA has not issued a regulatory decision on the supplemental NDA for mitapivat in adult non‑transfusion‑dependent and transfusion‑dependent alpha‑ or beta‑thalassemia; the application remains under active review.
The FDA's PDUFA goal date was December 7, 2025. Agios said the agency has not requested, and the company has not submitted, any new efficacy or safety data, and that the companies are collaborating to finalize labeling and REMS materials. The FDA has not provided a timeline for its decision and Agios continues to work expeditiously to conclude the review.
Agios (Nasdaq: AGIO) reported topline 52-week RISE UP Phase 3 results for mitapivat in patients ≥16 with sickle cell disease. The trial met the primary hemoglobin response endpoint: 40.6% responders on mitapivat vs 2.9% on placebo (2-sided p<0.0001). Statistically significant improvements were also seen in average hemoglobin concentration (+7.69 g/L vs +0.26 g/L) and indirect bilirubin (-16.03 µmol/L vs +0.88 µmol/L) (both p<0.0001). The trial did not achieve statistical significance for annualized SCPC rate (2.62 vs 3.05, p=0.1213) or PROMIS Fatigue (p=0.7112). Safety was consistent with prior studies. Agios plans FDA engagement and intends an sNDA submission after a Q1 2026 pre-sNDA meeting.
