Geron is discontinuing the Phase 3 IMpactMF trial of imetelstat in JAK inhibitor relapsed/refractory myelofibrosis after its independent Data Monitoring Committee advised the trial was unlikely to meet its primary endpoint of overall survival. The trial enrolled 327 patients randomized 2:1 versus best available therapy; no new safety signals were observed and the known safety profile is unchanged. The company says it remains focused on growing RYTELO demand in the U.S. and expanding access for lower-risk MDS patients, where the drug is already approved in the U.S.
