Pemigatinib is under clinical development by Incyte and currently in Phase II for Transitional Cell Cancer (Urothelial Cell Cancer). According to GlobalData, Phase II drugs for Transitional Cell Cancer (Urothelial Cell Cancer) have a 25% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Phase III. GlobalData’s report assesses how Pemigatinib’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Pemigatinib overview

Pemigatinib (Pemazyre) is acts as an anti neoplastic agent. It is formulated as tablets for oral route of administration. Pemazyre is indicated for adults with certain types of previously treated, locally advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinaoma and myeloproliferative disorder with with fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) rearrangement.

It is a small molecule administered orally in the form of tablet. It targets FGFR1, FGFR2 and FGFR3 kinases.

It was also under development for the treatment of metastatic or surgically unresectable adeno squamous carcinoma of the pancreas, urothelial carcinoma as first line therapy, multiple myeloma, adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction, and  oligodendroglioma, pilocytic astrocytoma.
