We are planning a pivotal study to address the significant medical needs of these patients,\u201d said Wan-Jen Hong, M.D., chief medical officer of Imago BioSciences.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOrphan designation by the EMA is designed to encourage the development of new treatments for life-threatening or chronically debilitating conditions affecting no more than five in 10,000 people in the European Union. Medicines that meet the criteria for orphan designation potentially qualify for several incentives, including 10-year market exclusivity, protocol assistance, and reduced fees for regulatory activities.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About Essential Thrombocythemia<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nEssential thrombocythemia is a rare blood cancer resulting from the overproduction of platelets, which increases the risk of blood clots and bleeding. It is one of the MPN family of rare bone marrow diseases and affects approximately 80,000 \u2013 100,000 patients in the U.S. There is a significant unmet need for new ET therapies that can effectively reduce patient platelet levels without general bone marrow suppression, while slowing the progression of the underlying disease. By normalizing elevated platelets, the primary clinical feature of ET, bomedemstat can address an unmet need in the 20% of the high-risk ET patients who are intolerant or resistant to hydroxyurea, the current standard-of-care for those patients with ET at greatest risk for blood clots.\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Imago BioSciences<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nImago BioSciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing novel small molecule product candidates that target lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), an enzyme that plays a central role in the production of blood cells in the bone marrow. Imago is focused on improving the quality and length of life for patients with cancer and bone marrow diseases. Bomedemstat, an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of LSD1, is the lead product candidate discovered by Imago for the treatment of certain myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), a family of related, chronic cancers of the bone marrow. Imago is evaluating Bomedemstat as a potentially disease-modifying therapy in two Phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of essential thrombocythemia (<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fclinicaltrials.gov%2Fct2%2Fshow%2FNCT04254978&amp;esheet=52468871&amp;newsitemid=20210730005150&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=NCT04254978&amp;index=5&amp;md5=9168ff705b08fc960367ee8757332378\">NCT04254978<\/a>) and myelofibrosis (<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fclinicaltrials.gov%2Fct2%2Fshow%2FNCT03136185&amp;esheet=52468871&amp;newsitemid=20210730005150&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=NCT03136185&amp;index=6&amp;md5=950a58ba7da9cf6334d5296ec718b9f7\">NCT03136185<\/a>).
