Aaron has a great piece up on $INCY
I have allowed free trial subscriptions for anyone that would like to read my recent substack articles. I have also posted a note on $iron and the increased likelihood of data next week. substack.com/@aaronrosenblum…

Surprised $GMAB is up only 3% after P2 update on Rina-S which puts it back in the game in the highly competitive ovarian cancer space.
Efficacy was strong with a ~47% response rate and PFS of 9.5 months.
Safety was better than expected with a low discontinuation rate although >Gr3 hem tox had an incidence of 30% (55% had to use prophylactic GCSF to take of neutropenia)
The market is still skeptic because Rina-S is considered a more toxic ADC vs some of the newer topo1-based ADCs from Lilly, AZ, Daiichi and Gilead which also generated slightly higher response rates (50-60%) in P1.
While this may still be the case, today's news position Rina-S favorably for its P3 readout (expected in Q4) where it is very likely to beat standard of care chemo (which won't come close to a 47% ORR and PFS of 9.5 months).
Approval could come next year and make Rina-S the treatment of choice in 2nd line ovarian cancer. This will block other topo1 ADCs from entering the market via accelerated approval and could make it difficult for them to generate a positive overall survival signal. It could also impact patient recruitment.
The best commercial benchmark is Elahere, an ADC approved for a third of ovarian patients selling at a $850M run rate which translates to a $3B sales potential for an ADC approved for the entire population.
Safety profile and combinability for earlier stages are the main concerns right now but it is still unclear whether other ADCs are significantly cleaner as their safety package is from smaller P1 data sets.
Only liking Cat Power through Moon Pix is rockist.

Sooner or later, the market is going to wake up to VK2735 being highly competitive in the world’s largest drug market, and the furthest-along independent asset with credible monthly maintenance.
It’s also underappreciated that the pool of potential strategic partners extends well beyond Big Pharma. Abbott, or even Amazon, isn’t a stretch.
Replying to @STL_Biotech
Perhaps the MOST important question is which big pharma head of commercial can say "I can launch this against Mounjaro".
This sounds like a man being drowned and two recorders playing a children’s carousel tune so nobody hears the struggle.
