Announcement
X4 Pharmaceuticals announced the presentation of positive data from its completed Phase 2 trial of mavorixafor in the treatment of certain chronic neutropenic (CN) conditions at the 30th Annual Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) in Milan, Italy.
AI Summary
X4 Pharmaceuticals recently presented positive data from its completed Phase 2 trial of mavorixafor at the 30th Annual Congress of the European Hematology Association in Milan, Italy. The study evaluated the oral treatment for certain chronic neutropenic conditions over a six-month period. Results showed that mavorixafor not only led to durable, meaningful increases in neutrophil counts but also allowed many patients to reduce or even stop the use of injectable granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). These findings suggest that mavorixafor may offer a simpler, oral alternative to the current therapy, which relies on regular injections. The encouraging trial outcomes have built confidence in the potential of mavorixafor and are shaping the design of an ongoing global Phase 3 trial, aimed at confirming its safety and effectiveness for patients with chronic neutropenia.
