During the oral presentation, researchers highlighted specific lung response results in six subjects at the latest data cut-off: one subject achieved an 11% increase in FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in the first second), one subject&#8217;s FEV1 recovered to more than 75% after treatment thereby returning to normal levels, and the remaining four subjects saw improvements in the NIH Lung score with significant improvements in shortness of breath.

The results show that pimicotinib demonstrated robust clinical efficacy and is well tolerated in heavily pre-treated patients with cGvHD. Rapid and durable responses were observed across both inflammation-dominated and fibrosis-dominated organs, accompanied by patient-reported reductions in organ-specific symptom burden. The majority of adverse events were Grade 1 and reversible.
