Conference Call and Webcast Scheduled Today at 8:00 a.m. EDT

WILMINGTON, Del.--()--Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today reports 2022 second quarter financial results, and provides a status update on the Company’s clinical development portfolio.

“The second quarter was strong with total revenues up 29% year-over-year, multiple approvals and the continued advancement of our pipeline. The launch of Opzelura in atopic dermatitis continues to progress well and in recent weeks, improvements in reimbursement have translated into an increase in covered claims. Revenues in the second quarter were temporarily impacted by the shift from free drug to paid prescription. Patient demand and satisfaction remain strong,” said Hervé Hoppenot, Chief Executive Officer, Incyte. “In July, Opzelura was also approved by the FDA in nonsegmental vitiligo, creating a new growth opportunity as the first therapy approved for repigmentation of vitiligo.”

Portfolio Updates

MPNs and GVHD – key highlights

LIMBER (Leadership In MPNs BEyond Ruxolitinib) program: The LIMBER development program is advancing with the FDA acceptance of the NDA for once-daily (QD) ruxolitinib, and the progression of multiple ongoing and planned combination trials with ruxolitinib. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date for QD ruxolitinib extended release (XR) formulation is March 23, 2023. Incyte’s partner, Cellenkos, announced the FDA clearance of its Investigational New Drug (IND) application to initiate a Phase 1b, open-label study of CK0804 as an add on therapy to ruxolitinib in patients with myelofibrosis who experience a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib. Combination trials of parsaclisib, INCB57643 (BET) and INCB00928 (ALK2) with ruxolitinib are also ongoing.

Itacitinib in chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD): Incyte no longer intends to develop itacitinib, a selective JAK1 inhibitor, in treatment-naïve chronic GVHD (cGVHD). Based on efficacy data from Part 1 of the Phase 2/3 GRAVITAS-309 trial, it was determined that a pivotal trial was unlikely to be successful.

Inflammation and Autoimmunity (IAI) – key highlights

Dermatology

Continued momentum with Opzelura launch in atopic dermatitis (AD) in the U.S.: Coverage for Opzelura has been established with the three largest PBM/GPOs and more plans continue to add Opzelura to formularies. The demand for Opzelura continues to be strong with nearly 48,000 units of Opzelura shipped in the second quarter and we expect strong physician and patient perceptions of Opzelura to drive increased usage in mild to moderate AD patients.

Opzelura approved for vitiligo in the U.S.; under review in Europe: Opzelura was approved as a treatment for nonsegmental vitiligo - which account for ~85% of patients with vitiligo - in adolescents and adults in the U.S., becoming the first and only medicine approved for repigmentation in vitiligo. The marketing authorization application (MAA) is under review at the European Medicines Agency (EMA) with an expected decision from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) by the end of the year.

Povorcitinib (INCB54707): Povorcitinib is currently in Phase 2 trials for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), vitiligo and prurigo nodularis. Based on findings from the Phase 2 trial, Incyte intends to initiate a Phase 3 study in HS later this year.

Pemazyre is a kinase inhibitor indicated in the United States for the treatment of adults with previously treated, unresectable locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with a fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusion or other rearrangement as detected by an FDA-approved test*. This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on overall response rate and duration of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial(s).

In Japan, Pemazyre is approved for the treatment of patients with unresectable biliary tract cancer (BTC) with a fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusion gene, worsening after cancer chemotherapy.

In Europe, Pemazyre is approved for the treatment of adults with locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma with a fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) fusion or rearrangement that have progressed after at least one prior line of systemic therapy.

Pemazyre is a potent, selective, oral inhibitor of FGFR isoforms 1, 2 and 3 which, in preclinical studies, has demonstrated selective pharmacologic activity against cancer cells with FGFR alterations.

Pemazyre is marketed by Incyte in the United States, Europe and Japan.
