Amsterdam, the Netherlands –
argenx SE (Euronext & Nasdaq: ARGX), a global immunology
company committed to improving the lives of people suffering from
severe autoimmune diseases, today announced that it will host an
R&D day on Tuesday, July 16, 2024 at 8:30am ET in New York City
to unveil its ‘Vision 2030: Taking Breakthrough Science to 50,000
Patients’ and provide updates from across its current and future
clinical pipeline.
"argenx today is better positioned than ever
before to deliver on our commitment to transform the autoimmunity
treatment landscape for patients,” said Tim Van Hauwermeiren, Chief
Executive Officer of argenx. “We have grown from our R&D roots
over the last five years into a true global innovator, pioneering
novel targets into a robust pipeline and delivering safe and
effective first-in-class medicines to more than 10,000 patients
around the world. We look forward to sharing our ‘Vision 2030’, and
outlining how the innovation playbook that brought us here today
will power our growth and evolution as we scale the argenx
innovation ecosystem.”
As part of its ‘Vision 2030’, argenx will
outline its long-term commitment to transform the treatment of
severe autoimmune disease with VYVGART, empasiprubart and its
expanding pipeline of antibody-based therapeutics. This will
include its plans to broaden its leadership within myasthenia
gravis (MG) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy
(CIDP), advance its next wave of indications through late-stage
development to reach patients, and invest in its organic innovation
engine to bring forward new first-in-class pipeline candidates.
R&D Day Agenda
The R&D Day agenda will include the
following topics:
- Vision 2030:
Bringing breakthrough science to 50,000 Patients
- Blueprint for
Innovation: Next wave of first-in-class immunology
targets
- Leadership in
FcRn: Broad opportunity of efgartigimod in severe
autoimmune disease
- Topline Phase 2 RHO data in
Sjogren’s disease
- Preview of Phase 2/3 ALKIVIA study
in immune-mediated myopathies
- Expansion of MG opportunity through
label-enabling studies, including seronegative MG
- Pioneering C2
Development: Next pipeline-in-a-product opportunity with
empasiprubart
- Phase 2 ARDA data in multifocal
motor neuropathy (MMN)
- Preview of Phase 2 studies in
delayed graft function and dermatomyositis
- Introduction of fourth
indication
- Sustainable Commercial
Engine: Scaling global commercial footprint to support
‘Vision 2030’
Featured Speakers
argenx management and scientific leadership will
be joined by external key opinion leaders who will discuss the
current disease and treatment burden associated with Sjogren’s
disease and MMN, as well as the potential for efgartigimod and
empasiprubart as innovative treatments in these indications.
- Prof. Simon Bowman, PhD FRCP,
Institute of Inflammation and Ageing, University of Birmingham
- Dr. Patrick Kwon, MD, Clinical
Associate Professor, Neurology, NYU Grossman School of
Medicine
PC-POTS Update
Results from the Phase 2 ALPHA study of
efgartigimod in post-COVID-19-mediated postural orthostatic
tachycardia syndrome (PC-POTS) show that treated patients had no
clinically meaningful improvement compared to placebo on the total
Malmö POTS symptom (MaPS) score and COMPASS31. The observed safety
and tolerability profile of efgartigimod in the ALPHA study was
consistent with previous clinical trials. argenx will not move
forward with development in PC-POTS and plans to prioritize
resources to the nearly 50 active clinical trials in its expanding
pipeline.
Webcast Information
Information will be shared leading up to the
R&D Day on the event website at
https://argenx2024rdday.q4ir.com, including the agenda, supporting
materials, and a link to the live audio webcast. A replay of the
webcast will be available on the website approximately one hour
after the conclusion of the event and will be archived for 90
days.
Upon conclusion of the webcast event, in-person
attendees will be invited to attend an interactive poster
session.
