Wells Fargo 21st Annual Healthcare Conference summary
10 Sep, 2026Lead program and clinical development
Lead asset cemsidomide is a cereblon modulating degrader targeting IKZF1/3, advancing in multiple myeloma across late and earlier lines, with ongoing phase II (MOMENTUM) and phase I-B combo studies.
Recent data updates show deepening responses, robust efficacy at multiple doses, and excellent tolerability, supporting its potential as a backbone therapy.
MRD negativity is now an FDA-accepted surrogate endpoint, streamlining future development and regulatory pathways.
T-cell engagers are moving into earlier lines, and cemsidomide is being studied in combination with elranatamab to enhance depth and durability of remission.
The MOMENTUM phase II trial is on track, with enrollment completion expected by end of Q1, targeting a 40% response rate over a 20% background.
Efficacy, safety, and market opportunity
At 100 micrograms, cemsidomide achieved a 53% ORR and durable responses, with a median DOR of 7.9 months and no discontinuations due to safety.
Neutropenia is manageable, mostly occurring in the first two cycles, and physicians are experienced in handling it.
The late-line multiple myeloma market is expected to grow as more effective therapies move earlier, with an estimated $1 billion opportunity.
An all-oral regimen is seen as advantageous for community-based patients.
Response rates were consistent across prior lines of therapy and BCMA exposure.
Combination strategies and future plans
Ongoing phase I-B study combines cemsidomide with elranatamab, focusing on safety and establishing a tolerable dose, with mid-2027 efficacy data expected.
Additional phase I-B studies will evaluate combinations with daratumumab and carfilzomib, aiming to establish broad combinability.
Interest in exploring combinations with CAR-T and trispecific TCEs, with some studies likely to be investigator-sponsored.
Future updates will focus on safety results and dose optimization, with MRD negativity and CR rates as key efficacy benchmarks.
Decision points on commercialization and potential partnerships are expected after key readouts, with a base case of independent execution.
