(Nasdaq: AGIO), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on delivering innovative medicines for patients with rare diseases, today announced an agreement with Oscotec, a clinical-stage drug discovery and development company focused on immunology and oncology, headquartered in South Korea, to license the exclusive global rights to cevidoplenib, a novel, next-generation, oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor.<\/p>\n<p>Agios will focus on advancing cevidoplenib for the treatment of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), a rare autoimmune blood disorder in which the immune system destroys platelets, leading to low platelet counts and an increased risk of bleeding. The goal of treatment in ITP is to reduce the risk of bleeding events by safely achieving stable platelet levels while minimizing the burden of treatment-related toxicities. Globally, ITP affects an estimated 200,000 individuals, including 90,000 adults diagnosed in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Cevidoplenib is a highly selective SYK inhibitor designed to prevent the harmful autoantibody-mediated destruction of platelets \u2013 the key driver of ITP. It was also designed to address the limitations of first-generation SYK inhibitors, offering the potential for an improved tolerability profile that supports long-term, manageable care for patients. Cevidoplenib has received orphan drug designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of ITP.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCevidoplenib is a next-generation SYK inhibitor uniquely designed to potentially offer improved tolerability and durability compared to first-generation SYK inhibitors. Backed by clinically meaningful Phase 2 data, we believe cevidoplenib has the opportunity to become a best-in-class treatment option for ITP,\u201d said Brian Goff, Chief Executive Officer, Agios. \u201cLicensing this promising medicine is a natural extension of our therapeutic focus and expertise, expanding and diversifying our rare hematology portfolio into ITP \u2013 an autoimmune blood disorder with an urgent need for new treatment options. This agreement also aligns with our disciplined approach to capital allocation, enabling us to advance this novel medicine while remaining firmly focused on executing our 2026 strategic priorities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cevidoplenib has been evaluated in a global, randomized, 12-week Phase 2 trial assessing efficacy, safety, and dose response in adults with persistent or chronic ITP. The primary endpoint was platelet response, defined as platelet count \u226530,000\/\u00b5L and doubling the platelet count compared to average platelet count during screening at any visit during the 12-week treatment period and without the use of rescue medication. While this novel primary endpoint did not achieve statistical significance, durable and clinically meaningful platelet responses were observed in the cevidoplenib arm compared with placebo across multiple secondary endpoints that align with primary endpoints used in ITP registrational trials. Additionally, cevidoplenib was well tolerated in the Phase 2 trial. Based on these results, Agios expects to advance cevidoplenib into Phase 3 development for ITP in the first half of 2028, following completion of additional chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) development work.<\/p>\n<p>Under the terms of the agreement, Agios will obtain exclusive global rights to develop and commercialize cevidoplenib across all indications and will assume full responsibility for future development and commercialization costs. Oscotec will receive a $25.0 million upfront payment and is eligible to receive up to $140.0 million in development and regulatory milestones for up to three indications in the U.S. and Europe, as well as commercial milestone payments and royalties ranging from high single digit to mid-teen on future net sales. Oscotec retains the option to secure exclusive development and commercialization rights to cevidoplenib in South Korea following the release of Phase 3 trial results.<\/p>\n<p>Agios continues to expect its 2026 operating expense guidance to be approximately flat compared to 2025, excluding the $25.0 million upfront payment to Oscotec.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Conference Call Information\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Agios will host a conference call and live webcast today, June 1, 2026, at\u00a08:00 a.m. ET\u00a0to discuss this agreement. The live webcast will be accessible on the Investors section of the company\u2019s website (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=JyPRv6Bzn63b7APZ4EO4WsUhyr6KAtpj1yF0L-lHqEFSw4pYHt6ht6dKVacb4Z4G0xc5jNo1IeS5w1XSHVE2yA==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">www.agios.com<\/a>) under the \u201cEvents &amp; Presentations\u201d tab. A replay of the webcast will be available on the company\u2019s website approximately two hours after the event.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Immune Thrombocytopenia<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune blood disorder characterized by immune-driven loss of platelets, a type of blood cell essential for normal blood clotting. In ITP, the immune system mistakenly produces autoantibodies that mark platelets for destruction and, in some cases, also produces autoantibodies against the precursor cells responsible for producing platelets. The net effect of these actions is a reduction of platelet levels in circulation, leading to an increased risk of bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>ITP affects both children and adults and, while it may initially present as an acute condition, it often persists and becomes a chronic condition in many adult patients. Globally, ITP affects an estimated 200,000 individuals, including 90,000 adults diagnosed in the U.S. Of these, roughly 50,000 have chronic ITP and require treatment for their symptoms. Approximately 24,000 of these patients do not respond to initial treatments and must progress to second-line treatment or beyond. This later-line population urgently needs new treatment options, as many patients eventually relapse or become refractory to existing therapies.<\/p>\n<p>Current standard-of-care therapies are focused on increasing platelet counts and reducing bleeding risk; however, they are often associated with limitations, including delayed onset of response, lack of durable efficacy, and class-specific adverse events, such as decreased blood counts and an increased risk of infections.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Cevidoplenib in Immune Thrombocytopenia<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Cevidoplenib is a next-generation, oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor designed to prevent autoantibody-mediated platelet destruction, a key driver of disease in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). SYK is a signaling enzyme involved in antibody-driven immune cell activation; by targeting SYK-dependent pathways, cevidoplenib is intended to reduce antibody-mediated platelet clearance and help restore platelet counts. Its selective targeting of SYK can also potentially support improved tolerability and durability for long-term use compared to first-generation SYK inhibitors. Cevidoplenib has been studied in multiple global clinical trials and remains under investigation; it has not been approved by regulatory authorities for any indication.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Phase 2 <\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong>Cevidoplenib<\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong> Trial in Immune Thrombocytopenia<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>The Phase 2 trial (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=ucl5Et4h6B7_xgvp_dy5gqJ5Aw7cUUhZzrOv_2IVRKuCCgWawlKGkLDhmNB1R9yXtPl46Wh4OU8z-8hi172hy1IUiv7TCpklgn4y9ab2ozY_wWlAgS4KbaYD_glQ7MNMe7bSVX0gsTcY5PwaJglXC-5QDJ-F5iC5WxYWZG6L7kTt3Cvcw35pisvsaCpN7FriNyUIrc54jLOzbCivRuoW5w==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NCT04056195<\/a>) of cevidoplenib was a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-dose study conducted in adults with persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).<\/p>\n<p>60 patients with platelet counts &lt;30,000\/\u00b5L who had relapsed after or were refractory to at least one prior therapy were enrolled across multiple regions, including the U.S., Europe, and South Korea. Patients were randomized 1:2:2 to receive placebo, cevidoplenib 200 mg twice daily, or 400 mg twice daily for 12 weeks. The median age was 60 years (range: 23-86). Stable background ITP therapies were permitted, and the study population was heavily pretreated, with 68.3% of patients having received three or more prior lines of therapy. Most patients had severe thrombocytopenia at baseline, with 68.3% having platelet counts &lt;15,000\/\u00b5L. Additionally, 63.3% were nonresponders to prior therapies and 81.7% had relapsed disease.<\/p>\n<p>The primary endpoint was platelet response, defined as platelet count \u226530,000\/\u00b5L and doubling the platelet count compared to average platelet count during screening at any visit during the 12-week treatment period and without the use of rescue medication. While this novel primary endpoint did not achieve statistical significance, durable and clinically meaningful platelet responses were observed in the cevidoplenib arm compared with placebo across multiple secondary endpoints that align with primary endpoints used in ITP registrational trials. Durable platelet responses with cevidoplenib were observed across secondary endpoints measuring at least two consecutive platelet counts \u226530,000\/\u00b5L and \u226550,000\/\u00b5L.<\/p>\n<p>Cevidoplenib was well tolerated in the Phase 2 trial. The most commonly reported treatment-related adverse events included transient elevations in liver enzymes and gastrointestinal events, and no new safety signals were identified.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About Agios: Fueled by Connections to Transform Rare Diseases\u2122 <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>At Agios, our vision is to redefine the future of rare disease treatment.
