Our recent publication in Nature demonstrated our commitment to being the scientific leader in HIF-2α biology and translational medicine. We are leveraging these insights and the differentiated profile of casdatifan compared to that of the competition to ensure that casdatifan becomes the backbone of treatment across every line of therapy in kidney cancer. In the front-line setting especially, we see a clear path to be first-to-market and to provide the best options for physicians and patients. The ARC-20 platform study and strategic clinical collaborations are enabling us to efficiently pursue an integrated approach across multiple lines of therapy, and we expect this year’s upcoming ARC-20 data readouts in first-, second- and late-line settings to clarify casdatifan’s potential to transform the treatment paradigm for kidney cancer.
