Agios Pharmaceuticals continues its commitment to expanding the use of Pyrukynd (mitapivat) for patients with thalassemia and sickle cell disease, two conditions with significant unmet medical needs. In recent Phase 3 trials, Pyrukynd demonstrated improvements in hemoglobin levels and fatigue symptoms, reinforcing its potential as an important treatment option. However, reported cases of liver enzyme elevations have prompted additional safety evaluations. While recent safety findings have introduced an additional step in the regulatory process, we remain hopeful that further evaluation will confirm a favorable benefit-risk profile.

At Oxydial, we recognize the importance of balancing innovation with patient safety. We remain hopeful that ongoing reviews will confirm a manageable risk profile, allowing this promising therapy to move forward. Every step in clinical development brings us closer to a future where targeted treatments redefine care for rare blood disorders.
