Item 8.01 - Other Events.
On December 5, 2020, the Company issued a press release relating to safety and efficacy findings from the expansion phase of the Company’s Phase 1/2 clinical trial of IMGN632 in patients with relapsed/refractory BPDCN that were presented during an oral session at the 62nd American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting on December 5, 2020. A copy of the press release is being filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advised the Company to add a pivotal cohort of up to 20 newly-diagnosed patients to the Company’s ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of IMGN632 in relapsed/refractory BPDCN to support a potential label that could cover all BPDCN patients, both frontline and relapsed or refractory. With the benefit of this guidance from FDA, the Company has moved forward with this pivotal cohort and expects to complete enrollment and generate topline data from the study within the next 12 to 18 months, with a biologics license application (BLA) submission expected in 2022.
