Incyte (Nasdaq:INCY) today reports 2021 second quarter financial results and provides a status update on the Company’s development portfolio.

“In the second quarter, we saw an acceleration of growth of Jakafi® (ruxolitinib) and encouraging uptake in Europe for Pemazyre® (pemigatinib). In addition, the recent positive CHMP opinion for tafasitamab and the potential subsequent launch of tafasitamab (Minjuvi®) in Europe represents another significant growth opportunity for Incyte,” stated Hervé Hoppenot, Chief Executive Officer, Incyte. “We continue to achieve clinical development success across our portfolio with positive outcomes from multiple programs, including topline results from ruxolitinib cream’s pivotal trials in vitiligo (TRuE-V), 52-week safety and efficacy data of ruxolitinib cream in atopic dermatitis (TRuE-AD), Phase 2 data of parsaclisib in autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and the achievement of bioequivalence with once-daily (QD) ruxolitinib.”

Portfolio Update

MPNs and GVHD – key highlights

Ruxolitinib in GVHD: Data from the REACH3 trial of ruxolitinib versus best available therapy (BAT) in patients with steroid-refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) have been published in The New England Journal of Medicine. The supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) seeking approval of ruxolitinib for the treatment of steroid-refractory chronic GVHD is under review; the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date was extended to September 22, 2021.

LIMBER (Leadership In MPNs BEyond Ruxolitinib): Bioavailability and bioequivalence data were published for ruxolitinib’s QD extended release (XR) formulation at the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2021 Virtual Congress. QD ruxolitinib is in stability testing with an NDA submission planned for early 2022. Clinical studies evaluating ruxolitinib in combination with parsaclisib, INCB57643 (BET) and INCB00928 (ALK2), are progressing as expected.

Updated interim data from the proof-of-concept trial evaluating parsaclisib in combination with ruxolitinib in myelofibrosis (MF) patients with an inadequate response to ruxolitinib monotherapy were also presented at EHA.

Other Hematology/Oncology – key highlights

Tafasitamab: In June, Incyte and MorphoSys announced that the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) issued a positive opinion recommending the conditional marketing authorization of tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide, followed by tafasitamab monotherapy, for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT).

Updated three-year data from the Phase 2 L-MIND study evaluating tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide as a treatment for adult patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL were presented at EHA. Multiple studies evaluating tafasitamab as a backbone therapy in various combinations for the treatment of patients with DLBCL, follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma and other B-cell malignancies are underway, including two Phase 3 trials (inMIND and frontMIND) currently ongoing. An additional proof of concept trial (coreMIND) of tafasitamab in combination with parsaclisib for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is expected to start in the next six months.

Pemigatinib: The ongoing launch in the United States continues to go well and the recent launches in Europe and Japan are on track. FIGHT-207, evaluating pemigatinib in tumor agnostic FGFR malignancies, is now closed to recruitment. Based on findings from this study, Incyte has identified populations that may potentially benefit from treatment with pemigatinib and intends to initiate Phase 2 studies in glioblastoma and non-small cell lung cancer by early next year.

Retifanlimab: In July, Incyte announced that the FDA issued a complete response letter for the Biologics License Application (BLA) for retifanlimab as a treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCAC). Registration-directed trials of retifanlimab in MSI-high endometrial and Merkel cell carcinoma are ongoing. The Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) seeking approval of retifanlimab in SCAC remains under review with the European Medicines Agency (EMA).

Inflammation and Autoimmunity (IAI) – key highlights

Dermatology

Ruxolitinib cream: In June, 52-week safety and efficacy data from the two Phase 3 TRuE-AD studies evaluating ruxolitinib cream in mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis were presented at the Revolutionizing Atopic Dermatitis (RAD) virtual symposium. These data were the basis for an NDA seeking approval of ruxolitinib cream for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD); the PDUFA date has been extended to September 21, 2021.

A Phase 3 trial (TRuE-AD3) evaluating ruxolitinib cream in children (ages 2 to <12 years) with atopic dermatitis is ongoing.

In May, Incyte announced positive topline results from its pivotal Phase 3 TRuE-V program of ruxolitinib cream in adolescent and adult patients with vitiligo. Both TRuE-V1 and TRuE-V2 studies met the primary and key secondary endpoints, including patient reported outcomes. The overall efficacy and safety profile of ruxolitinib cream is consistent with previously reported Phase 2 data, and no new safety signals were observed. The long-term efficacy and safety portions of both studies will continue as planned. The regulatory submission seeking approval of ruxolitinib cream in vitiligo is expected later this year.

Other IAI

Parsaclisib: At EHA, Incyte presented Phase 2 data evaluating parsaclisib in autoimmune hemolytic anemia. The majority of patients achieved a response with parsaclisib over the initial 12-week treatment period. Treatment with parsaclisib was generally well tolerated. Based on these results, Incyte plans to initiate a Phase 3 trial by end of year.

Research and development expenses GAAP and Non-GAAP research and development expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 increased 20% and 24%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to the progression of our pipeline including parsaclisib and our 55% share of the global and U.S. specific development costs for tafasitamab as well as product supply related costs to support the potential launch of ruxolitinib cream as a treatment for atopic dermatitis. Excluding the $12 million impact of incremental product supply costs and upfront and milestone payments, GAAP and Non-GAAP research and development expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 increased approximately 16% and 20%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2020.

Selling, general and administrative expenses GAAP and Non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 increased 43% and 46%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to expenses related to the establishment of our dermatology commercial organization and activities to support the potential launch of ruxolitinib cream for the treatment of atopic dermatitis.

Other Financial Information

Operating income (loss) GAAP and Non-GAAP operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 decreased by $90 million and $93 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2020 primarily due to an $85 million decrease in milestone and contract revenues.

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities position As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $2.1 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively.

2021 Financial Guidance

Incyte is tightening its full year 2021 guidance for Jakafi net product revenues to reflect the impact of higher than anticipated government rebates and chargebacks and the new PDUFA date for ruxolitinib for the treatment of steroid-refractory chronic GVHD and is revising upward the range for other Hematology/Oncology net product revenues based on the performance of Pemazyre in the first half of 2021. In addition, the Company is reducing the range for selling, general and administrative expense to reflect lower expenses for ruxolitinib cream as a treatment for atopic dermatitis in the U.S. based on the PDUFA date extension to September 21, 2021. Guidance does not include revenue from any potential new product launches or the impact of any potential future strategic transactions. Incyte’s updated guidance is summarized below.

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. Incyte has granted Innovent Biologics, Inc. rights to develop and commercialize pemigatinib in hematology and oncology in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Incyte has retained all other rights to develop and commercialize pemigatinib outside of the United States.
