- Treatment with oral infigratinib for 52 weeks in PROPEL 3 resulted in favorable trends against placebo in clinically meaningful exploratory endpoints including sleep apnea and otitis media events
- Stabilization of sleep apnea measures: The mean total Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) at 52 weeks remained consistent with the baseline mean in the oral infigratinib group, with a 10.4% increase, versus a 49.2% increase in the placebo group; in children younger than 8 years of age, the mean total AHI was unchanged for the oral infigratinib group, versus a 63.2% increase in the placebo group
- Reduction in rate of ear infections: The estimated annualized rate of otitis media events was 38% lower in the oral infigratinib group compared to the placebo group; in children younger than 8 years of age, the annualized rate of otitis media events was 47% lower in the oral infigratinib group compared to the placebo group
- In children treated for up to three years in the PROPEL program, oral infigratinib demonstrated sustained improvements in growth (CFBL in height Z-score of +0.92 SD at Year 3) and body proportionality (CFBL in upper-to-lower body segment ratio of -0.15 at Year 3), with a well-tolerated safety profile and no new safety signals
- These findings build on the previously reported PROPEL 3 primary and secondary endpoint results published in NEJM, in which oral infigratinib demonstrated a +2.10 cm/year improvement in AHV versus placebo (p<0.0001) and a statistically significant improvement in body proportionality within 52 weeks in children younger than 8 years of age
- BridgeBio submitted an NDA to the FDA for oral infigratinib in achondroplasia and anticipates a U.S. launch in mid-2027
