Six weeks ahead of its PDUFA date, Kadmon Holdings Inc.’s NDA for Rezurock (belumosudil) has been approved to treat chronic graft-vs.-host disease. The selective oral inhibitor of Rho-associated coiled-coil kinase 2, a daily treatment for patients 12 and older after failure of at least two prior lines of systemic therapy, is the New York-based company’s first approved therapy.
New York-based Kadmon Holdings Inc.’s recent oral late-breaker session on KD-025 in chronic graft-vs.-host disease (cGVHD) at the Transplantation & Cellular Therapy (TCT) meeting – along with data that rolled out from two studies testing competitor Jakafi (ruxolitinib) from Incyte Corp. – signaled potential advantages in the former’s candidate, already highly regarded.
A little more than two months after completing enrollment, an interim analysis shows Kadmon Holdings Inc.'s pivotal trial of ROCKstar (KD-025-213) testing KD-025 in patients with chronic graft-vs.-host disease (cGVHD) met its primary endpoint of overall response rate.
