“The positive Period 1 data from the IMVT-1402 trial in D2T RA demonstrate exciting potential for a new, differentiated mechanism to treat RA patients who have failed multiple prior therapies,” said
Preliminary Results from IMVT-1402 Trial in D2T RA
The trial evaluating IMVT-1402 in participants with D2T RA who have failed two or more prior mechanisms of advanced therapies (including biologic and targeted synthetic DMARDs) is currently ongoing. A total of 170 participants have been enrolled in the initial 16-week open label period (Period 1) of the study evaluating weekly subcutaneous (SC) dosing of IMVT-1402 600 mg. Participants achieving a response at Week 14 and Week 16 in Period 1 per the
At the completion of Period 1, 165 of the 170 patients were evaluable for ACR20 response. Of these patients, 86.7% (143/165) had failed two prior mechanisms of advanced therapies, and the mean time since diagnosis was 12.8 years. Baseline disease activity was high, with mean counts of 24.2 tender joints, 16.7 swollen joints, and a DAS28-CRP score of 6.1. At Week 16, the observed ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 response rates were 72.7%, 54.5%, and 35.8%, respectively; participants who discontinued prior to Week 16 were imputed as non-responders. Among the subset of participants who had failed at least a JAK inhibitor and an anti-TNF inhibitor (N=107), the Week 16 observed ACR20, ACR50 and ACR70 response rates were 72.0%, 53.3% and 37.4%, respectively.
Period 1 was conducted in an open-label setting, with joint assessments performed by independent assessors blinded to treatment status, which we believe reduces the potential for assessor bias in the response measures. IMVT-1402 was observed to be safe and well-tolerated in the study, and no new drug-related safety signals were identified. We anticipate providing further updates on this program in the second half of calendar year 2026.
Recent Developments
- Priovant: The FDA accepted brepocitinib’s New Drug Application (NDA) in DM with Priority Review and assigned a target action date in the third quarter of calendar year 2026. Commercial launch of brepocitinib in DM expected by the end of
September 2026 .
InFebruary 2026 , we announced positive results in the Phase 2 BEACON study of once-daily oral brepocitinib in cutaneous sarcoidosis (CS). Brepocitinib 45 mg demonstrated statistically significant improvements in CS disease activity, achieving a 22.3-point improvement in mean CSAMI-A at Week 16 versus a 0.7-point improvement in placebo. Brepocitinib demonstrated rapid, deep and sustained improvements across all other efficacy endpoints. Based on this positive Phase 2 data, the FDA has granted brepocitinib Breakthrough Therapy Designation for the treatment of CS; initiation of a Phase 3 program in CS expected in the second half of calendar year 2026.
InMarch 2026 , we enrolled the first subjects in a seamless Phase 2b/3 potentially registrational trial of brepocitinib in lichen planopilaris (LPP).
- Immunovant: In
May 2026 , we announced Week 16 (end of Period 1) results from the IMVT-1402 trial in difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T RA) of ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70 response rates of 72.7%, 54.5% and 35.8%, respectively. Further updates on this program, as well as topline data from the fully enrolled proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), are expected in the second half of calendar year 2026. All other clinical development timelines remain on track for IMVT-1402, including potentially registrational trials in Graves’ disease (GD), myasthenia gravis (MG), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and Sjögren’s disease (SjD).
InApril 2026 , we announced topline results from the two Phase 3 clinical studies evaluating batoclimab for adults with active, moderate-to-severe thyroid eye disease (TED), neither of which met the primary endpoint. The safety profile observed in these studies was consistent with prior batoclimab studies. Following these results, we discontinued further development of batoclimab across all indications to focus fully on IMVT-1402. Learnings from the batoclimab program, including clinical data, operational trial experience and relationships with investigators, have been and continue to be leveraged to inform and potentially accelerate the development of IMVT-1402.
- Pulmovant: In
February 2026 , we completed enrollment within one year of first patient dosing in the Phase 2 PHocus study of mosliciguat in 135 patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD); topline data expected in the second half of calendar year 2026. - Genevant: In
March 2026 , we announced a$2.25 billion global settlement with Moderna, ending all pendingU.S. and international patent-infringement litigation filed byGenevant Sciences GmbH (Genevant) and Arbutus against Moderna; Moderna to pay Genevant and Arbutus$950 million inJuly 2026 and an additional$1.3 billion contingent upon resolution of Moderna’s Section 1498 appeal favorable to Genevant and Arbutus. Claim construction ruling in Genevant and Arbutus’s lawsuit against Pfizer andBioNTech in theU.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey for patent infringement in the manufacture and sale of their Covid-19 vaccine was issued inSeptember 2025 , construing the disputed claim terms in a manner that Genevant generally considers to be favorable. - Roivant: Roivant reported consolidated cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of
$4.3 billion as ofMarch 31, 2026 , supporting cash runway into profitability.
Major Upcoming Milestones
- Priovant expects to launch brepocitinib in DM by the end of
September 2026 and plans to progress CS to a pivotal program with a Phase 3 study starting in the second half of calendar year 2026. Topline data from the Phase 3 trial of brepocitinib in NIU are expected in the second half of calendar year 2026. - Immunovant expects to provide further updates on the potentially registrational trial of IMVT-1402 in D2T RA and report topline data from the proof-of-concept trial of IMVT-1402 in CLE in the second half of calendar year 2026. In calendar year 2027, topline data are expected across potentially registrational trials of IMVT-1402 in GD and MG.
- Pulmovant expects to report topline data from the ongoing Phase 2 trial of mosliciguat in PH-ILD in the second half of calendar year 2026.
