Immunovant's Batoclimab FcRn Inhibitor Fails Phase 3 Trials in Thyroid Eye Disease

Immunovant's batoclimab failed to meet the primary endpoint of proptosis responder rate in two Phase 3 trials for thyroid eye disease (TED). 6

Safety results were consistent with prior studies, but the failures validate biotechs' shift away from batoclimab toward next-generation IMVT-1402. 26

Immunovant succeeded in Phase 3 for myasthenia gravis (MG) with batoclimab hitting primary endpoint and superior IgG reductions, yet chose not to pursue approval, focusing on IMVT-1402. 23

Decision on batoclimab in TED remains pending after Phase 3 data, amid waning interest. 2

Earlier proof-of-concept showed promise in TED with IgG reductions and proptosis improvements, but Phase 3 did not confirm efficacy. 1
