I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.
Incyte has received FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for its experimental treatment INCA033989, targeting essential thrombocythemia. This designation aims to expedite the development of treatments showing promise, based on Phase 1 data indicating good tolerability and platelet count normalization. The treatment is for patients with CALR mutations type 1 and non-type 1. Incyte plans to launch a registry program in H1 2026 for patients resistant to existing therapies, marking a strategic move in rare myeloproliferative diseases.
