BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB $2PR by Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.

Wednesday, Bristol Myers Squibb &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) announced new data from the Phase 3 Daybreak trial demonstrating that decreased rates of brain volume loss were sustained in the open-label extension (OLE) for patients treated with Zeposia (ozanimod) for relapsing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/09/b40915829/new-long-term-zeposia-ozanimod-data-demonstrate-durable-efficacy-and-consistent-safety-in-relapsin" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">forms of multiple sclerosis</a>.
These findings showed that patients receiving continuous Zeposia treatment for up to five years experienced low and stable rates of whole brain volume (WBV) loss through Month 60 (annualized least squares mean [LSM] % change from parent trial baseline: Radiance, −0.27; Sunbeam, −0.35).

Additionally, findings from a separate Daybreak OLE safety analysis demonstrated declining or stable incidence rates of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), with relatively low rates of infections, serious infections and opportunistic infections over more than eight years of treatment with Zeposia.
These will be presented at the 40th&nbsp;Congress of the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis.
The Daybreak OLE trial included 2,257 patients from the Sunbeam and Radiance Phase 3 trials and evaluated rates of brain volume loss.
Switching from interferon beta-1a (IFN-β) to Zeposia treatment consistently reduced rates of WBV loss (annualized LSM% change from Radiance baseline to Month 24 and Daybreak baseline to Month 24: −0.48 and −0.19, respectively, with a similar pattern observed in Sunbeam).
Additionally, similar reductions were observed for changes in thalamic volume loss.
High annualized LSM% reductions in cortical grey matter volume (CGMV) were observed with IFN-β (annualized change at Month 12 relative to Sunbeam baseline: −1.02; annualized change at Month 24 relative to RADIANCE baseline: −0.59), but this trend reversed 12 months after switching to Zeposia in Daybreak (annualized LSM% increase relative to Daybreak baseline: patients from Sunbeam, 0.10; patients from Radiance, 0.20), with low annualized LSM% CGMV loss observed after that.
Price Action: BMY stock is up 0.40% at $49.69 during the premarket session at last check Wednesday.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) recently shared his thoughts on the state of healthcare in the United States, highlighting the disparity in outcomes between those with means and those without.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Senator Sanders took to X to voice his concerns about the high cost of medical care in the U.S. and the financial burden it places on patients.
He said, &#8220;If you&#8217;re rich in America, the odds are you&#8217;ll live as long as people in other developed countries.&#8221; However, conversely, if you&#8217;re poor &#8220;you&#8217;ll live 10 or 15 years less.&#8221;

The Vermont senator shared a video in which he addressed the issue. He said when asked about the status of the current healthcare system most people without exception say that &#8220;our healthcare system today is broken.&#8221;
He said, &#8220;When people say that they are right.&#8221; Sanders added, &#8220;In America today we spend twice as much per person on healthcare as do the people of any other country.&#8221; However, he noted that the U.S. outcomes were worse in comparison.
&#8220;Our life expectancy is way down behind many other countries and really obscenely the life expectancy in the United States between the people on top and working-class people is 10-12 years.&#8221;
Why It Matters: Sanders&#8217; views come in the wake of ongoing discussions about healthcare reform in the U.S. His comments on drug pricing are particularly relevant given his previous criticisms of companies like Biogen and Bristol-Myers Squibb for their high drug prices. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39784920/bernie-sanders-getting-sick-in-america-should-not-mean-going-bankrupt-losing-your-home-car-or-life-s">Sanders has previously stated</a> that &#8220;getting sick in America should not mean going bankrupt, losing your home, car, or life savings.&#8221;
Furthermore, Sanders&#8217; comments on the upcoming elections highlight his belief that the choice is clear for voters who want to see a change in the current healthcare system. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/08/40448543/bernie-sanders-trump-just-wants-to-give-billionaires-another-tax-break-this-november-the-choice-">He has previously criticized</a> policies that favor billionaires over the average citizen.

HC Wainwright initiated coverage on Enliven Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ELVN#NASDAQ">ELVN</a>) and noted the company as an emerging biotech company developing next-gen precision-oriented small molecules for solid and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ELVN" rel="noreferrer noopener">liquid tumor indications</a>.
Enliven&#8217;s pipeline includes:
<ul>
<li>ELVN-001— a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeting mutant BCR::ABL. HC Wainwright highlights that ELVN-001 could meaningfully improve on existing TKI drugs used in chronic myelogenous leukemia, with applicability across multiple lines of therapy.</li>
<li>In April, the company released proof of concept data from the Phase 1 trial of ELVN-001 in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who are relapsed, refractory, or <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/04/38208363/enliven-therapeutics-shares-first-look-at-safety-clinical-activity-of-lead-program" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">intolerant to available TKIs</a>.</li>
<li>ELVN-001 achieved a cumulative major molecular response (MMR) rate of 44% (7/16) by 12 weeks and demonstrated responses in patients with prior exposure to asciminib and who were TKI-resistant.</li>
<li>ELVN-002 is being evaluated in combination with trastuzumab plus chemotherapy or as monotherapy in HER2-driven malignancies within non-small cell lung, colorectal, and metastatic breast cancer, among others.</li>
</ul>
The analyst initiates with a Buy rating and a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ELVN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $37</a>.
CML is a chronic disease requiring multiple years of continuous treatment. Patients frequently switch therapies due to liabilities of the existing approved drugs, including poor tolerability due to off-target effects and inability to dose to maximal efficacy.
Six approved drugs—Novartis AG&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVS#NYSE">NVS</a>) Gleevec (imatinib), Scemblix (asciminib), and Tasigna (nilotinib), Bristol-Myers Squibb &amp; Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) Sprycel (dasatinib), Pfizer Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) Bosulif (bosutinib), and Takeda Pharmaceutical Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAK#NYSE">TAK</a>) Iclusig (ponatinib)—generate over $6 billion in annual sales, with each drug bringing in around $500 million. Some even achieve peak annual sales of up to $2 billion despite competition from generic versions.
HC Wainwright analyst projects that positioning ELVN-001 as a third-line treatment could surpass $500 million in peak annual sales.
ELVN-002 has the potential to address unmet needs in HER2-mutant NSCLC, CRC, and mBC, where current treatments have limitations. It could challenge competitors like Pfizer&#8217;s Tukysa and tap into the growing post-AstraZeneca Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZN#NASDAQ">AZN</a>) Enhertu market, with sales possibly reaching hundreds of millions.
While Enliven focuses on precision oncology, its target market is broader than that of past agents like Bristol-Myers&#8217; Augtyro (repotrectinib) and Roche Holdings AG&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RHHBY#OTC">RHHBY</a>) Rozlytrek (entrectinib).
Price Action: ELVN stock is up 7.32% at $23.01 at the last check on Monday.

Enliven Therapeutics' Leukemia Candidate Could Challenge Pfizer, AstraZeneca In Broader Target Market: Analyst

Federal regulators are grappling with a significant backlog of factory inspections for drug manufacturing, with many facilities not reviewed since before the pandemic.
An analysis by The Associated Press of FDA data revealed that approximately 42% of the 4,700 registered plants have not undergone FDA surveillance inspections since 2019.
These facilities produce crucial medicines such as antibiotics, blood thinners, and cancer therapies, raising concerns over potential contamination and quality issues.
An AP analysis reveals that approximately 2,000 pharmaceutical manufacturers have not undergone FDA surveillance inspections since before the pandemic. This oversight raises potential contamination risks and other safety issues in medications.
A scholar from Duke University expressed concerns about generic drugmakers reducing costs at the expense of quality, which remains unchecked without proper inspections in an ABC News report.
Tainted medications, like the 2022 incident involving antibiotic-resistant bacteria in eyedrops from an Indian factory, underscore the risks of insufficient oversight.
These factories, particularly in India and China, are critical suppliers of low-cost prescription ingredients in the U.S.
Despite the challenges, FDA Associate Commissioner Michael Rogers <a target="_blank" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/2000-drug-manufacturing-plants-overdue-fda-inspections-after-113414456" rel="noreferrer noopener">asserted</a> that the FDA is the world&#8217;s most stringent drug regulator. However, he acknowledged that inspection rates are still nearly 40% lower than pre-COVID levels, with no set timeline for clearing the backlog.
The situation is exacerbated by staffing challenges, with many experienced inspectors leaving for more flexible job opportunities.
Internationally, the FDA has been using video and online tools for preliminary assessments, but these do not substitute for physical inspections.
The Government Accountability Office has consistently marked this area as high-risk, signaling that more proactive measures are necessary. In the meantime, the FDA focuses on a risk-based approach to prioritize inspections that pose the greatest public health risk.

<li>The price of Bristol Myers Squibb Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) blood thinner Eliquis has been negotiated to $231.</li>

<li>Johnson &amp; Johnson&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JNJ#NYSE">JNJ</a>) Xarelto (blood thinner), Stelara (psoriasis, arthritis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn&#8217;s disease), Imbruvica (blood cancer) could be available at $197, $4,695, and $9,319, respectively people enrolled in Medicare prescription drug coverage.</li>

A Reuters review found that the negotiated prices for Medicare are still more than double, and sometimes five times, what drugmakers have agreed to in countries like Sweden, Canada, Japan, and Australia.
<ul>
<li>A 30-day supply of nine out of ten drugs will still cost Medicare $17,581 in 2026, compared to just $6,725 in Sweden today.</li>
</ul>
Experts highlight that the U.S. has long accepted its role as the highest payer for prescription drugs, viewing it as a trade-off for early access to new medicines.
Bristol Myers stated that pricing is specific to each country, based on national health systems and regulatory policies. Merck argued that comparing U.S. prices to overseas generics is invalid.
The U.S. agency overseeing Medicare stated that international prices were not considered in the negotiations, which focused instead on factors like manufacturer data and the availability of alternative treatments.
The U.S.&#8217;s willingness to pay more for drugs also drives up prices globally, as other countries benefit from lower prices due to U.S. expenditures.
The lack of generic competition in the U.S. for certain drugs further exacerbates the problem. For instance, a biosimilar to Amgen&#8217;s Enbrel, which costs Medicare $2,355 for a 30-day supply, is available in Sweden for just $709.

Despite Medicare Negotiations, Americans May Still Have To Pay More For Prescription Drugs

<a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bms.com%2F&amp;esheet=54115662&amp;newsitemid=20240830173433&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Bristol+Myers+Squibb&amp;index=1&amp;md5=3e88a641f1abae4288691c315548abf4">Bristol Myers Squibb</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) today announced new long-term follow-up results from the EXPLORER-LTE cohort of the MAVA-Long-Term Extension (LTE) study evaluating CAMZYOS&#xAE; (mavacamten) in adult patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-III symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM).
The long-term follow-up efficacy and safety data, presented today at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress in London, reinforce the established efficacy and safety profile of CAMZYOS, a first-in-class cardiac myosin inhibitor. With inclusion in both the ESC and AHA/ACC clinical guidelines as a recommended option for when symptoms persist after first-line therapy, CAMZYOS is a standard of care for symptomatic oHCM.
Patients experienced consistent and sustained improvements in echocardiographic measures and biomarkers after up to 3.5 years (180 weeks) of continuous treatment, including resting left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient, Valsalva LVOT gradient, left atrial volume index and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels. They also experienced an improvement in symptoms and functional capacity as measured by NYHA class and patient-reported outcomes, including most patients achieving NYHA class I. The safety profile of CAMZYOS for up to 3.5 years remained consistent with the established safety profile, with no new safety signals identified.

Each week,&nbsp;Benzinga&#8217;s Stock Whisper Index&nbsp;uses a combination of proprietary data and pattern recognition to showcase five stocks that are just under the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-whisper-index" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">surface and deserve attention</a>.
Investors are constantly on the hunt for undervalued, under-followed and emerging stocks. With countless methods available to retail traders, the challenge often lies in sifting through the abundance of information to uncover new opportunities and understand why certain stocks should be of interest.
Here's a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week of Aug. 30:
Realty Income Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/O#NYSE">O</a>): Known to many as "the monthly dividend company," Realty Income is a real estate investment trust that pays out dividends on a monthly basis. 
The stock saw increased interest from investors during the week, which could be related to a search for income to add to portfolios. The company <a href="https://www.realtyincome.com/investors/press-releases/realty-income-announces-operating-results-three-and-six-months-ended-2">reported </a>adjusted funds from operations of $1.06 for the three months ending June 30.
"Supporting our stable and growing cash flow stream, our liquidity position remains strong, and our operations and portfolio of leading clients are healthy. Given these strengths, I am confident our global, diversified platform remains positioned to continue to deliver favorable risk-adjusted returns, given our current visibility into our future pipeline of opportunities," Realty Income CEO Sumit Roy said.
The company could be seeing interest from investors due to its stable history of paying out and increasing dividends. Realty Income shares are up 1.1% over the last week as seen on the <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent083024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro chart </a>below and up 4.8% year-to-date in 2024.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent083024&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="995" height="501" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/30102038/Screenshot-150.png" alt="" class="wp-image-523402" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/30102038/Screenshot-150.png 995w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/30102038/Screenshot-150-300x151.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/30102038/Screenshot-150-768x387.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 995px) 100vw, 995px" /></a></figure>
Bristol-Myers Squibb Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>): The global biopharmaceutical company saw increased interest from investors during the week, which could be for numerous reasons.
The company is<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/08/40586451/regulators-expected-to-approve-innovative-schizophrenia-treatment-from-bristol-myers-karuna"> expected to see approval</a> for its schizophrenia treatment KarXT next month. The drug comes from Bristol Myers Squibb and Karuna Therapeutics, a company it acquired for $14 billion in December 2023.
In July, the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/07/39982236/bristol-myers-squibb-witnesses-strong-demand-for-newer-drugs-as-q2-earnings-beat-expectations-rai">reported second-quarter revenue</a> that beat analyst estimates with the company's portfolio of drugs and key blood thinner treatment Eliquis seeing strong growth.
"As we move into the second half of the year, we remain focused on prioritizing opportunities with the greatest growth potential and impact for patients, including the anticipated U.S. launch of KarXT," Bristol-Myers Squibb CEO Christopher Boerner said after second-quarter results.
Three analysts<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BMY/analyst-ratings"> raised price targets </a>on the company in August after the quarterly results. Bristol-Myers Squibb shares were up 4.3% over the last week and remain down on a year-to-date basis.

Travelers Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>): The insurance company saw strong interest from investors on minimal news. 
The attention to the company could be coming as 2024 was expected to be an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40259269/storm-debby-headed-for-nyc-highly-populated-areas-as-catastrophic-flooding-persists">above-average hurricane season</a> according to forecasts, but so far has been on the milder side. 
A milder season could benefit the company financially. Travelers shares were up 3.1% over the last week and are up 18% year-to-date in 2024.

Innovative Eyewear (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUCY#NASDAQ">LUCY</a>): Shares of the eyeglasses and sunglasses company<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40634171/innovative-eyewear-stock-is-soaring-today-whats-going-on"> surged during the week</a> on news of the company's products being sold through Target's digital channels. 
The company's Lucyd Lyte frames are now available on Target.com. The low-float, $8 million company was highly volatile on the news as it is working to develop ChatGPT-enabled smart eyewear under its Lucyd brand and licensed brands like Nautica, Eddie Bauer and Reebok.
Shares of the company were up 38% over the last week, but remain down 43% year-to-date in 2024.

Edison International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EIX#NYSE">EIX</a>): Utility stocks continue to be strong performers in recent weeks, which could be why Edison International saw strong interest from Benzinga readers during the week. 
The owner of Southern California Edison has over five million utility customers. The company saw several analysts<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/EIX/analyst-ratings"> raise price targets </a>after quarterly earnings. 
Edison International is forecasting strong growth ahead along with working on minimizing the risk of fires in California. Shares of the utility company were up around 2% over the last week and are up nearly 20% year-to-date in 2024.

Benzinga's 'Stock Whisper' Index: 5 Stocks Investors Secretly Monitor But Don't Talk About Yet

Jefferies analyst Akash Tewari maintains Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) with a Hold and raises the price target from $49 to $51.

Jefferies Maintains Hold on Bristol-Myers Squibb, Raises Price Target to $51

Wednesday, Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NBIX#NASDAQ">NBIX</a>) topline data for its Phase 2 clinical study of NBI-1117568 (NBI-&#8216;568) in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/08/n40596900/neurocrine-biosciences-reports-positive-phase-2-data-for-nbi-1117568-in-adults-with-schizophrenia" rel="noreferrer noopener">adults with schizophrenia</a>.
NBI-&#8216;568 is the first investigational, oral, muscarinic M4 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/nbix" rel="noreferrer noopener">selective agonist</a>.
The new data showed that the once-daily 20 mg dose of NBI-&#8216;568 induced an average 18.2-point reduction from baseline in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) after six weeks, compared to 10.8 points in the placebo group.

That 7.5-point difference reached statistical significance with a p-value of p=0.011.
The company noted that none of the other three higher-dosing groups (30, 40, and 60 mg) reached statistical significance.
William Blair notes that while this effect size is in line with what was demonstrated by Bristol Myers Squibb&nbsp;Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>)&nbsp;acquired Karuna&#8217;s KarXT, the 7.5 delta versus placebo is lower than the 11.6 difference in the Phase 3 EMERGENT-2 study.
It was also lower than the 0.75 effect size and 11.6-point delta from placebo from the EMERGENT-1 Phase 2 study and the 12.7-point and 11.1-point improvement over placebo with AbbVie Inc&#8217;s (formerly Cerevel&#8217;s) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABBV#NYSE">ABBV</a>) emraclidine.
&#8220;We do highlight that the placebo improvement of 10.8 points is greater than what was seen in prior Phase II studies of KarXT and emraclidine, which is unsurprising given potential expectation bias around a more well-validated mechanism and is more in line with prior studies of antipsychotics historically,&#8221; William Blair analyst adds.
Price Action: NBIX stock is down 18.90% at $123.71&nbsp;at the last check on Wednesday.

Some 3 million Americans, and approximately 24 million people worldwide, are likely looking forward to a pivotal date next month in which U.S. regulators are expected to decide on whether to approve a new — more innovative — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care">schizophrenia drug.</a>
What Happened: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has set Sept. 26 as the date to give final approval to a new drug from Karuna Therapeutics.
Bristol Myers Squibb Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) bought Karuna <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/12/36360205/bristol-myers-squibb-scoops-up-schizophrenia-player-karuna-therapeutics-in-massive-14b-deal">for about $14 billion</a> in late 2023.
The treatment has doctors and patients excited: up until now, schizophrenia drugs were notorious for their severe side effects.
According to Bloomberg&#8217;s Gerry Smith, Karuna was able to take an Alzheimer's drug developed by Eli Lilly &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) and pair it with another drug.
&#8220;By stimulating the receptors inside the brain and blocking those outside, Karuna was able to treat the symptoms and limit the side effects,&#8221; Smith <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-08-27/schizophrenia-gets-first-new-types-of-drugs-in-decades?srnd=undefined">writes</a> in a newsletter.

Why It Matters: Schizophrenia affects approximately 1 in 300 people across the globe, according to the <a href="https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/schizophrenia">World Health Organization</a>.
Less than half of patients stay on medications due to side effects like weight gain and drowsiness. 
Karuna and other biotech and big pharma companies are now more keen on developing new treatments for this particular mental illness that have minimal side effects. Before, there hadn&#8217;t been a new type of schizophrenia treatment in more than 70 years.
What&#8217;s Next: Expect to hear progress on Cerevel Therapeutics&#8216; schizophrenia drug, emraclidine. AbbVie Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABBV#NYSE">ABBV</a>) acquired the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/23/12/36123803/why-cerevel-therapeutics-holdings-is-moving-after-hours">last year for $9 billion</a>.
Neurocrine Biosciences (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NBIX#NASDAQ">NBIX</a>) and Nxera Pharma Co. also have a schizophrenia treatment in the works.

Data to be presented at the meeting includes long-term extension data evaluating the efficacy and safety profile of CAMZYOS&#xAE; (mavacamten) up to 180 weeks (3.5 years) for the treatment of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-III symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM), as well as data on behalf of the BMS-Pfizer Alliance on ELIQUIS&#xAE; (apixaban) and the BMS-Johnson &amp; Johnson Collaboration on milvexian.

Bristol Myers Squibb To Present New Findings on CAMZYOS, ELIQUIS, and Milvexian Cardiovascular Treatments at ESC Congress

The FDA will hold an Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (ODAC) meeting on September 26 to reevaluate the approvals of checkpoint inhibitors for advanced gastric, gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
The current <a target="_blank" href="https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2024-18970.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">labeling</a> for approved checkpoint inhibitors in this indication reflects broad approvals in the intent to treat patient populations agnostic of programmed death cell ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression.

Cumulative data have shown that PD-L1 expression appears to be a predictive biomarker of treatment efficacy in this patient population; however, clinical trials have used different approaches to assess PD-L1 expression and different thresholds to define PD-L1 positivity.
The focus will be on whether these approvals should be restricted based on tumors&#8217; PD-L1 expression.
The review includes existing approvals for Bristol Myers Squibb Co&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMY#NYSE">BMY</a>) Opdivo (nivolumab) and Yervoy (ipilimumab), Merck &amp; Co Inc.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRK#NYSE">MRK</a>) Keytruda (pembrolizumab), and pending applications for BeiGene Inc&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BGNE#NASDAQ">BGNE</a>) Tevimbra (tislelizumab).
FDA would like the Committee&#8217;s opinion on the following:
<ul>
<li>Adequacy of PD-L1 expression as a predictive biomarker for patient selection in this patient population</li>
<li>Differing risk-benefit assessments in different subpopulations defined by PD-L1 expression.</li>
<li>Adequacy of the cumulative data to restrict the approvals of immune checkpoint inhibitors based on PD-L1 expression.</li>
