Highlight

  • Voranigo (vorasidenib), a dual IDH1/2 inhibitor, receives a positive opinion from the EMA’s CHMP for adults and adolescents with grade 2 IDH-mutant glioma following surgery.
  • The phase 3 INDIGO trial demonstrated a marked extension of progression-free survival and delayed need for further anticancer interventions with Voranigo compared to placebo.
  • Voranigo would be the first targeted therapy for this indication in Europe, addressing a major unmet need in low-grade glioma management.
  • Safety profile is manageable, with most adverse events related to liver enzymes and mild systemic symptoms.
