Andy Boral

a complicated. Eric, that we’ve question and it’s talked yes, a that’s about lot

is FDA key an I two several – from the of start are ongoing a PATHFINDER and will think, they discussions mastocytosis X the with we’ve couple with study, a get findings. had I will – now concept approach. patients IWG EU things at that in are; key things all least, are on the agencies a so one study There there that and C the our not board Phase the in – PATHFINDER two have from evaluable weren’t study.

over is I first questions the had comment second and on Andy, I’ll three to. is one, have, this There to take maybe responses Jeff. the to So it on

those ongoing longest enroll over but to are lowest do is an for up time. we front, patients period Phase are at on doses So continuing time mentioned and this patients I obviously, X the know study of the Andy as

we but also read don’t in indolent. so we’re there we’re you their that mean my And put some I from been the seeing impression they data is in to in mouth, agreed data through do advance the seeing I potential want has that and to words

other, think, has several the we’re I proposing parts. study that The piece discrete is

variety of And so a questions. answer I’ll

course efficacy Of that on to and answer we question. think part in study a multipart seamlessly an then I can question move of is a critical, dose but the

the was use across severely there multiple patients to the general think that’s affected that regulatory are actually in agencies and with agreement is population there smoldering no The can you response IWG. measurement by that I symptoms. very indolent really analogous

the will despite that the unmet group very really agencies at think encompasses with disease from promising with patients a severe advanced and address endpoints life look their indolent a matter systemic And avapritinib that is so a it’s that understanding normal questions. having a the data of through quite of this that preliminary single the needs I expectancy mastocytosis

eligibility thank on press more thoughts and some of I Hi, and for programs. and indolent criteria your background terms question a you taking I effort, of questions couple wanted update for sin of on guess PRO the therapy. around to specifically little details bit the the smoldering and/or a

PRO corticosteroids then you guess the about from for what serum know be patients? How of in these of a main specifically for separate you do the kind and tryptase and PRO I and those baseline levels drivers sensitivity around thoughts poorly combining these So controlled your think patients, will generally sensitivity biomarker histamines are PRO on together. the

Andy Boral

take that. will I Andy. it’s Dane,

So a couple things. of

have we stop patients symptoms very can’t difficult these course many their of background certainly and disease So have therapy.

study decide, TKI would avapritinib go should on mastocytosis the systemic therapies. with to study We that how – one should addition ongoing background a of you indolent to big study question evaluation is patients with standard it And now do how society quality in be evaluating is you go it in which an So the of scores alluded particular part on development of with in PRO to early just the terms life other the of correlating measures. mastocytosis doing what in behave with such understand we’re is – collaboration avapritinib. actually is of mastocytosis PRO with patients in actually as a it

with can, a not we well controlled available word, that this on – severe Indolent that define essentially are So important criteria we a the score eligibility where is point, Mastocytosis, be indicates the will is of this study. at piece Systemic therapies an it severe but inventing

we’ll reduce that are supportive actually – well, So frequency actually looking measures opportunity real Those patients like will and the to who antihistamine will a steroids to score our of be off not their continue steroids, ability a with as gives correlating allowed vein other things things number And patients pick endpoint PRO reactive us kind and of based the steroids actually other controlled. be patients therapies. well to are on of and because a at identifies of or like cutoff ongoing and secondary therapies.

excuse me like marrow more and do. a piece more or measurable it I agencies – mast bone – improvements, number disease very don’t will have the other very Another numbers to in marrow mast is bone patients regulatory maybe with to tryptase, to laboratory-based that don’t we patients think objective improvements evidence But important or cells. of cell all be like correlate that than link have of PRO is as think well, indolent the reasonable important patients show

real think of and those we DXXXV in mast changes burden patients marrow potential correlates. in cells objective changes another actually in So bone is

on we cell like PRO burden, high are correlate of with established is with endpoint a score objective a So – And course important a to we our that of CRO based other proposing quality mast then, on on PRO already tryptase. primary burden, do think based the in with the for be what we’ve show excuse reasonably measures. entry minimum – PRO correlates based of the also needs required correlating me, more level life will improvements DXXXV findings other the over study, it that

thinking kind it. So we about this of how are is

Dane Leone

is, clear to a be there be just findings lab the could to something it I or that out significant If like Great. way you’re would tryptase. serum the demonstratively like laying square

Jeff Albers

tryptase, bone I that’s like no held – we data, level I and of that things it with that actually mast in marrow there’s as improvement. to will not bone disease, be be really There’s disease don’t overstatement. that – a marrow and lot mast cells will an correlating symptomatic data, because So indolent in smoldering think

say. linear with PRO But to yes, think synchronization I So want we of be with think is available a directional not an we’d measures. our some objecting, the relationship indolent expectation of between I the improvement been traditionally in the a patients We’d clear – need and one it’s directional some more predictive bar one But correlation. see want the some I don’t other maybe see of PRO to would disease”. would of measures of symptoms or reasons in “objective consistency

not ask enrollment, and enrollment how Great. – rate those advance with with – to them Is how mytosterone, one PIs in more to of you there of side. guidance pretty specifically, could just them that of a the the beat therapy Relative do the that clinicians, avoid may feedback those And mytosterone your lot that from healthy what’s prior think also study? if that I or majority able terms patients the having that is a step, on titrated. to accelerates does – could affect do the be discontinuation have being that of something for given

Jeff Albers

patients don’t preference may prior mytosterone Patients have received mytosterone. have any may or for I not prior treatment. maybe wasn’t So We clear earlier.

and are yet, the many very actually study So not makes patients it or not and approved, think, easy – will maybe that reimbursed some are are not actually much. countries believers there very just enroll. mytosterone coming There and it’s the places, sites where either mytosterone there have to we used from being we and

So a ongoing studies. studies, little actually ongoing there of for the the evolution, was mix we very when coming we started, an off course, on been expect except interesting patients and it’s

patients seeing of it though it’s Europe, both approved are patients bulk U.S. by is the a and we even more now any in means. but with Now few prior mytosterone a not
