Forward Guidance
TG Therapeutics anticipates several key milestones in 2020, including data readouts and regulatory submissions.
Positive Outlook
- Report topline PFS results from the Phase 3 UNITY-CLL trial evaluating U2 in patients with frontline and previously treated CLL.
- Target a potential New Drug Application (NDA)/Biologics Licensing Application (BLA) submission by year-end if UNITY-CLL trial is successful.
- Complete rolling NDA submission for umbralisib in patients with previously treated MZL and FL in the first half of 2020.
- Report topline results from the Phase 3 ULTIMATE I & II trials in RMS in the second half of 2020.
- Continue to advance early pipeline candidates including TG-1501 (cosibelimab), TG-1701 and TG-1801.
Challenges Ahead
- The risk that the interim data from the UNITY-NHL MZL cohort will not be reproduced when the final analysis is conducted on all patients.
- The risk that the final analysis of the UNITY-NHL MZL or FL cohorts will be insufficient to support a filing for accelerated approval.
- The risk that umbralisib will not receive accelerated approval based on data from the UNITY-NHL MZL or FL cohorts.
- The risk that PFS data from UNITY-CLL will not be positive or, if positive, will not be accepted for filing by the FDA.
- The risk that the anticipated timeline for completing the submission of the umbralisib NDA in MZL and FL based on the UNITY NHL data will be delayed.
