Incyte Genomics Inc - INCY STOCK NEWS

Incyte announced that the European Commission has granted marketing authorization for Opzelura (ruxolitinib) cream, marking it as the first approved treatment for repigmentation in non-segmental vitiligo within the European Union.

This approval is based on positive Phase 3 trial results showing substantial improvements in facial and total body repigmentation with the treatment. Approximately 29.8% and 30.9% of patients achieved a 75% improvement in facial vitiligo after 24 weeks of treatment. The cream is designated for use in adults and adolescents aged 12 and older, addressing a significant unmet need for patients suffering from this chronic autoimmune disease.

No serious treatment-related side effects were reported, although acne at the application site was noted as a common reaction.

MorphoSys and Incyte presented final five-year follow-up data from the Phase 2 L-MIND study at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting 2023. The study focused on the effectiveness of Monjuvi, an immunotherapy, combined with lenalidomide, in treating adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Key findings included an overall response rate of 57.5%, with a complete response in 41.2% of patients. Importantly, the median overall survival was reported at 33.5 months. No new safety concerns arose, with most adverse events being grade 1 or 2. This data reinforces Monjuvi's potential as a viable treatment option for patients who are not candidates for autologous stem cell transplants.
