Kadmon Announces Acceptance of Late-Breaking Abstract of KD025 for cGVHD at the 2020 TCT Meetings

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / January 10, 2020 / Kadmon Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:KDMN) today announced that expanded data from the interim analysis of ROCKstar (KD025-213), its ongoing pivotal trial of KD025 in chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), will be presented in a late-breaking oral presentation at the 2020 Transplantation & Cellular Therapy (TCT) Meetings to be held February 19-23, 2020 in Orlando, FL. The expanded dataset will include response rates across key subgroups and initial safety data for ROCKstar, which is evaluating KD025 in cGVHD in patients who had received at least two prior lines of systemic therapy.

In November 2019, Kadmon announced that KD025 met the primary endpoint at the planned interim analysis of ROCKstar, which was conducted as scheduled two months after completion of enrollment. At the interim analysis, KD025 showed clinically and statistically significant Overall Response Rates (ORRs) of 64% with KD025 200 mg once daily and 67% with KD025 200 mg twice daily.

At TCT 2020, Kadmon will also present long-term follow-up data from KD025-208, its ongoing Phase 2 study of KD025 in chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). These data were recently presented at the 61st American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition in December 2019.

The abstracts are expected to be made available online via the TCT website in the coming weeks. Details of the presentations are as follows:
