Seagen to Highlight Data from Expanding Oncology Portfolio at 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting

On April 28, 2022 Seagen Inc. (Nasdaq:SGEN) reported upcoming presentations of new data from its expanding pipeline of marketed and investigational therapies at the 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, to be held June 3-7, 2022 in Chicago (Press release, Seagen, APR 28, 2022, View Source [SID1234613152]). The accepted abstracts demonstrate the growth of Seagen’s portfolio and clinical progress across multiple cancer types, including cervical and urothelial cancers and pediatric and adult Hodgkin lymphoma. Groundbreaking overall survival data for Stage III/IV Hodgkin lymphoma patients who were treated with ADCETRIS (brentuximab vedotin) as part of a first-line therapy combination will be detailed in one of three oral presentations for the antibody-drug conjugate medicine.

Other important data include interim results from the dose-expansion cohorts of the innovaTV 205 trial of TIVDAK (tisotumab vedotin-tftv) in combination with other anticancer agents in patients with recurrent metastatic cervical cancer, which will also be featured in an oral presentation. Long-term outcomes from the phase 3 EV-301 trial of PADCEV (enfortumab vedotin-ejfv) in patients with previously treated advanced urothelial carcinoma will be shared in a poster discussion.

"Significant improvements in overall and event-free survival are important new findings in adult and pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma patients, respectively," said Roger Dansey, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Seagen. "We look forward to the presentations and plan to submit supplemental applications to the Food and Drug Administration to update overall survival in the ADCETRIS prescribing information for Hodgkin lymphoma and expand its indication to include children."

Key data presentations for Seagen include:

"During the first quarter, we advanced our transformation from a research company to a commercially-focused organization. Our clinical team continues to collect and confirm data and track events in real time from our Phase 3 trial in the relapsed/refractory patient population. Based on current projections, we now anticipate reaching our overall survival events trigger in mid-2023, with top line data disclosure shortly thereafter. Beyond uproleselan, we reiterate our plan to submit an IND for GMI-1687 in sickle cell disease in the first half of 2022," commented Harout Semerjian, Chief Executive Officer.

Operational Highlights

Uproleselan

GlycoMimetics continued a focused effort to collect and confirm data received from the 70 sites in the U.S., Europe, Canada, and Australia that enrolled a total of 388 patients in the Company’s pivotal Phase 3 trial in relapsed/refractory AML. Based on current projections, GlycoMimetics now anticipates mid-year 2023 for the overall survival events trigger, with top line data disclosure shortly thereafter.
In parallel, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), in its Phase 2/3 clinical trial evaluating uproleselan in newly diagnosed older adults with AML who are fit for chemotherapy, is preparing for its planned interim analysis of event free survival from its Phase 2 enrollment of 267 patients. The Company intends to share the outcome of the NCI’s analysis of the Phase 2 data.
Investigator-sponsored clinical trials to evaluate expanded indications for uproleselan enrolled patients at the University of California-Davis, Washington University at St. Louis, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and the University of Michigan.
GMI-1687

The Company completed IND-enabling activities for GMI-1687 and placed finished GMP clinical product on stability to support use in a first-in-human clinical study.
GMI-1687 demonstrated no safety concerns from GLP 28-day toxicity studies in two different species as well as from a standard battery of IND-enabling studies.
The Food and Drug Administration, in response to its pre-IND meeting with GlycoMimetics, provided guidance that will be incorporated into the IND submission.
The Company is on track to submit an IND in the first half of 2022 to evaluate the compound in sickle cell disease patients with acute VOC as the lead indication.
Organizational Updates

The Company expanded its executive management in the first quarter of the year. Bruce Johnson joined the Company as Senior Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, and Deepak Tiwari joined GlycoMimetics as Vice President, Technical Operations.
As GlycoMimetics pivots to a focus on commercialization activities, the Company implemented a workforce reduction of 20% in April, primarily in early-stage research and chemistry. GlycoMimetics’ core expertise in research and institutional knowledge remains intact.
First Quarter 2022 Financial Results:

Cash position: As of March 31, 2022, GlycoMimetics had cash and cash equivalents of $76.5 million as compared to $90.3 million as of December 31, 2021.
Revenue: There was no revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized $1.1 million in revenue from the sale of clinical supplies to Apollomics under a clinical supply agreement.
R&D Expenses: The Company’s research and development expenses decreased to $9.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $11.1 million for the same period in 2021. The decreased expenses were primarily due to lower clinical trial and development costs related to our ongoing global Phase 3 clinical trial of uproleselan in individuals with relapsed/refractory AML as patient enrollment ended in November 2021. The decrease was partially offset by higher manufacturing expenses for uproleselan validation batches.
G&A Expenses: The Company’s general and administrative expenses increased to $5.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as compared to $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2021 primarily due to commercial start-up expenses for uproleselan and higher patent fees.
Shares Outstanding: Shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2022, were 52,392,444.
The Company will host a conference call and webcast today at 8:30 a.m. ET. The dial-in number for the conference call is (844) 413-7154 for domestic participants and (216) 562-0466 for international participants, with participant code 1068226.

About Uproleselan

Discovered and developed by GlycoMimetics, uproleselan is an investigational, first-in-class, targeted inhibitor of E-selectin. Uproleselan (yoo’ pro le’ sel an), currently in a comprehensive Phase 3 development program in AML, has received Breakthrough Therapy designation from the U.S. FDA and from the Chinese National Medical Products Administration for the treatment of adult AML patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Uproleselan is designed to block E-selectin (an adhesion molecule on cells in the bone marrow) from binding with blood cancer cells as a targeted approach to disrupting well-established mechanisms of leukemic cell resistance within the bone marrow microenvironment.

About GMI-1687

Discovered and developed by GlycoMimetics, GMI-1687 is a highly-potent E-selectin antagonist that represents a potential life-cycle extension to uproleselan. GMI-1687 has been shown in animal models to be fully bioavailable following subcutaneous administration. As such, GMI-1687 is being positioned as a potentially self-administered drug to be used in the outpatient setting for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as acute vaso-occlusive crisis of sickle cell disease, as well as hematologic indications such as AML and MDS.
