Blueprint Medicines Corporation has declared that the European Commission has sanctioned the use of AYVAKYT® (avapritinib) as a therapeutic option for adult individuals experiencing moderate to severe symptoms of indolent systemic mastocytosis, which have not been effectively managed with existing symptomatic treatments. AYVAKYT® stands as the novel and sole therapy ratified for the management of indolent systemic mastocytosis in the European territory.

Systemic mastocytosis, classified as an uncommon blood-related illness, can cause various severe symptoms that drastically affect patients' well-being. Most individuals affected by SM are diagnosed with ISM, with an estimated 40,000 cases in the European Union. AYVAKYT has been engineered to powerfully and precisely inhibit KIT D816V, the chief cause of this medical condition.

"The greenlighting of this medication is a pivotal move in setting a new international care benchmark for ISM patients and is founded on extended collective efforts with the SM community," noted Georg Pirmin Meyer, M.D., the Senior Vice President, International at Blueprint Medicines.

Dr. Georg Pirmin Meyer added, "For the inaugural occasion, ISM sufferers in Europe have an endorsed treatment, heralding a groundbreaking phase in combating this illness. AYVAKYT stands as the premiere therapy sanctioned for both ISM and advanced SM, with our dedicated team eager to make this revolutionary treatment accessible to individuals affected by varying stages of the disorder."

The endorsement stems from a favorable view by the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use. This authorization by the European Commission relies on the outcomes from the PIONEER trial, a comprehensive, placebo-controlled, double-masked study uniquely conducted among ISM patients. AYVAKYT has demonstrated significant enhancements in comparison to placebo concerning the primary efficacy goals and all crucial secondary benchmarks, which include total symptoms and quantifiers of mast cell presence.

With the intention to start offering this treatment in Europe, Blueprint Medicines is preparing to launch AYVAKYT commercially first in Germany. Subsequent introductions in other markets will follow, contingent on each country's health technology valuation and cost coverage mechanisms.
