SpringWorks Therapeutics has received approval from the Food and
Drug Administration for its treatment of desmoid tumors.
The Stamford, Conn.-based biopharmaceutical company said that
Ogsiveo had been approved for adults with progressing desmoid
tumors who require systemic treatment.
Desmoid tumors are non-cancerous, soft-tissue tumors which can
be life-threatening when they impact vital structures. SpringWorks
said Ogsiveo was the first FDA-approved therapy for patients with
desmoid tumors.
SpringWorks said the treatment would be available to order
through certain specialty pharmacies and distributors in five to 10
business days.
The company plans to file a marketing authorization application
for the treatment with European regulators in the first half of
2024.
