Fulcrum Therapeutics reports Q3 EPS (35c), consensus (41c)

“In the third quarter, we made progress enrolling patients and activating new sites in the Phase 1b PIONEER trial of pociredir in sickle cell disease and advancing our preclinical pipeline,” said Alex C. Sapir, Fulcrum’s president and chief executive officer. “The need for effective therapeutic options for patients with sickle cell disease has become even more urgent due to the recent withdrawal of OXBRYTA globally. Based on the initial data generated in the Phase 1b trial, we believe that pociredir has the potential to increase fetal hemoglobin to levels that could ameliorate symptoms of sickle cell disease. While we were disappointed with the results of the Phase 3 REACH trial announced in September, we remain committed to improving the lives of patients with genetically defined diseases in areas of high unmet medical need like sickle cell disease. We are focused on progressing the development of pociredir as expeditiously as possible and remain on track to provide data from the PIONEER trial in 2025.”
