Geron at ASCO: Durable Continuous Transfusion Independence with Imetelstat in MDS Phase 3

 

  • Primary endpoint of 8-week transfusion independence (TI) significantly higher with imetelstat vs. placebo (P<0.001), with median TI duration approaching one year for imetelstat 8-week TI responders

  • Statistically significant and clinically meaningful efficacy results achieved across key MDS subgroups: ring sideroblast (RS) status, baseline transfusion burden and IPSS risk category

  • Safety results consistent with prior imetelstat clinical experience

  • Reduction in variant allele frequency (VAF) of genes commonly mutated in MDS and their correlation with clinical endpoints support disease-modifying potential of imetelstat

  • Data support NDA submission which is on track for June 2023 to support potential U.S. commercial launch in first half of 2024
