IDHENTIFY was initiated as a confirmatory study following the anticipated accelerated approval. Unexpectedly, enasidenib received FULL approval right away. Failure of IDHENTIFY, which compared single agent enasidenib to conventional care, is unlikely to make an impact on the approval status.
BMS, which acquired enasidenib as part of the acquisition of Celgene, is not pursuing any additional studies.
An ongoing phase 3 study in tx-naïve AML is sponsored by HOVON.
