Phase 3 Trial Readouts Approaching
Hansa remains on track to report data from two critical Phase 3 trials in the second half of 2025. The 20-HMedIdeS-17 study (ConfIdeS), a US pivotal trial in kidney transplantation (搜索), is expected to generate data that will support a Biologics License Application (BLA) submission to the FDA in the second half of 2025.
The company is also preparing to report results from the GOOD-IDES-02 trial in anti-GBM (搜索) (anti-glomerular basement membrane disease). These readouts represent key value inflection points for the company's clinical development program.
Expanding Pipeline Development
Beyond the Phase 3 programs, Hansa continues to advance its broader pipeline based on its proprietary IgG (搜索)-cleaving enzyme technology platform. The company presented positive data from the 15-HMedIdeS-09 Phase 2 trial, including an indirect treatment comparison to the International Guillain-Barré Syndrome (搜索) Outcome Study (IGOS), at the Peripheral Nerve Society annual meeting in May.
Enrollment is ongoing in the GNT-018-IDES Phase 2 trial in Crigler Najjar (搜索), which evaluates the efficacy and safety of Genethon's gene therapy GNT-0003 following pre-treatment with imlifidase.
