"At AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) 2021, we look forward to sharing clinical and pre-clinical data from INCB106385, our novel A2A/A2B adenosine receptor antagonist, and INCA00186, our novel CD73 monoclonal antibody—both of which highlight our ongoing efforts targeting the adenosine pathway. Presentations at the congress will also feature updated data from our LIMBER development program, including results from our Phase 2 combination study of ruxolitinib, a janus kinase (JAK1/JAK2) inhibitor, and parsaclisib, a potent, highly selective oral inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ)," said Steven Stein, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, Incyte, adding, "We further look forward to sharing clinical and pre-clinical data on these and other targeted and immuno-oncology therapies in the Incyte portfolio."
