Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jan 26 | Breakthrough designation | Positive | +3.2% | FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for bezuclastinib+sunitinib in GIST. |
| Jan 20 | NDA/RTOR update | Positive | +2.5% | FDA agreement to accept PEAK NDA under Real-Time Oncology Review. |
| Jan 12 | 2026 milestones | Positive | -1.7% | Outlined 2026 NDA timelines, trial presentations, and commercial launch targets. |
| Jan 06 | Conference presentation | Positive | +1.5% | Planned presentation at J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference with webcast access. |
| Dec 30 | NDA submission | Positive | -2.1% | Filed NDA for bezuclastinib in NonAdvanced SM based on positive SUMMIT data. |
Recent clinical and regulatory milestones for bezuclastinib generally saw positive stock reactions, though pivotal NDA steps in NonAdvSM triggered occasional profit-taking.
Over the last few months, Cogent highlighted multiple milestones for bezuclastinib, including an NDA submission for NonAdvSM on Dec 30, 2025 and FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation in GIST with strong PEAK data on Jan 26, 2026. Additional updates covered RTOR-based NDA plans and a 2026 milestones roadmap, including multiple NDA submissions and anticipated launches. Today’s SUMMIT poster announcements at AAAAI extend this sequence by adding more detailed NonAdvSM data to support the previously filed NDA and broader 2026 launch narrative.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights multiple SUMMIT trial posters at AAAAI 2026, expanding on bezuclastinib data in NonAdvSM across efficacy, symptom burden, bone markers, patient experience, and high‑need subgroups. It builds on the NDA submission disclosed in December 2025 and prior Breakthrough Therapy Designation. Investors may watch for how these detailed data support the overall benefit–risk profile in NonAdvSM and complement earlier pivotal readouts used for the NDA.

WALTHAM, Mass. and BOULDER, Colo., Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cogent Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: COGT), a biotechnology company focused on developing precision therapies for genetically defined diseases, today announced multiple upcoming posters highlighting bezuclastinib results from the SUMMIT trial in NonAdvanced Systemic Mastocytosis (NonAdvSM) patients at the 2026 American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology Annual Meeting (AAAAI) being held in Philadelphia, PA, February 27-March 2, 2026.
In December 2025, Cogent announced that the company submitted its New Drug Application for bezuclastinib in NonAdvSM to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The submission is based on positive clinical data from the SUMMIT pivotal trial and follows the Breakthrough Therapy Designation for bezuclastinib in patients with SSM and patients with NonAdvSM who have received prior avapritinib.

About Cogent Biosciences, Inc.
Cogent Biosciences is a biotechnology company focused on developing precision therapies for genetically defined diseases. The most advanced clinical program, bezuclastinib, is a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor that is designed to potently inhibit the KIT D816V mutation as well as other mutations in KIT exon 17. KIT D816V is responsible for driving systemic mastocytosis, a serious disease caused by unchecked proliferation of mast cells. Exon 17 mutations are also found in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), a type of cancer with strong dependence on oncogenic KIT signaling. The company also has an ongoing Phase 1 study of its novel internally discovered FGFR2/3 inhibitor. In addition, the Cogent Research Team is developing a portfolio of novel targeted therapies to help patients fighting serious, genetically driven diseases targeting mutations in ErbB2, PI3Kα, KRAS and JAK2. Cogent Biosciences is based in Waltham, MA and Boulder, CO. Visit our website for more information at www.cogentbio.com.
