Immunovant, Inc. announced today that data from its Phase 2a trial of batoclimab in Graves’ disease will be featured in an oral presentation. The presentation is scheduled for the 2024 American Thyroid Association (ATA) Annual Meeting, which will take place from October 30 to November 3, 2024, in Chicago, Illinois. This event will highlight new data concerning both thyroid-specific and extrathyroidal manifestations of Graves' disease.
Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the overproduction of thyroid hormones, making it the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. The condition involves harmful IgG autoantibodies binding to and activating the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor, leading to excess thyroid hormone production. Current treatments, largely unchanged for 70 years, focus on reducing thyroid hormone levels.
The presentation of these Phase 2a results is significant as it provides further insights into batoclimab's potential in addressing this autoimmune condition. Investors will be watching for details on how batoclimab's mechanism of action, targeting pathogenic IgG antibodies, could offer a new therapeutic approach for patients with Graves' disease.
