• A post hoc analysis of the Phase 3 RESET study evaluating the efficacy of rivipansel in acute vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) in sickle cell disease (SCD) produced new efficacy data showing statistically significant improvements for patients treated early in crisis in the primary efficacy endpoint of time to readiness for discharge compared to placebo

“The second quarter was quite productive as we noted strong enrollment in our company-sponsored pivotal trial of uproleselan in relapsed/refractory AML. Though we did see a slow down early in the COVID crisis, we were pleased to see enrollment pick back up later in the quarter. This was an important achievement in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are able to maintain prior guidance that we expect to complete enrollment in the second half of 2021. Also important were new data from a post hoc analysis of the rivipansel Phase 3 study that showed that patients treated with rivipansel within approximately 26 hours of the onset of pain in their crisis experienced statistically significant improvements in the primary efficacy endpoint of time to readiness for discharge compared to placebo. These data provide a foundation, we believe, for us to discuss with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) whether there may be a path forward for rivipansel in acute VOC,” commented Rachel King, Chief Executive Officer.
