Milvexian—>FDA Fast Track designation for_all_indications:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/milvexian-granted-u-fda-fast-105900364.html
The three indications BMY is pursuing in phase-3 are: secondary stroke prevention; ACS; and primary stroke prevention in patients with AF.
BMY’s BMS-986278 for IPF will advance to phase-3:

IMMP +65% on interim (single-arm) phase-2 data for LAG-3 drug with Keytruda in NSCLC:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/immutep-efti-combination-pembrolizumab-achieves-120000596.html
IMMP’s eftilagimod alpha is a LAG-3 protein that targets the same biologic pathway as BMY’s relatlimab, one of the component drugs (along with Opdivo) in Opdulag.
BMY’s Opdulag, which was FDA approved in Mar 2022 for first-line melanoma, is already selling at an annualized rate of $500M in the US alone (#msg-171784010).
Please see #msg-168259768 for related info.

Unless Vessey is buying a house, a sale of this size at this price level is somewhat concerning.

It's hard to interpret a transaction of this size as non-bearish. I wonder if Giovanni Caforio is planning to retire in the next 12-18 months.

Addendum—Breyanzi is the first CAR-T to show efficacy in CLL, as far as I know. rrCLL is a large market; if Breyanzi’s complete-response rate after, say, 5 years is as high as 15-20%, this indication could be a meaningful commercial contributor.
Breyanzi, which is currently approved for various forms of relapsed NHL, has annualized sales of under $200M.

Sotyktu: Miracle Pill for Autoimmune Diseases
"Given both deucravacitinib’s new mechanism of action and its very acceptable safety profile, it has the ability to make billions of dollars for Bristol-Myers Squibb. Well, it will give immeasurably suffering patients an extra chance for healing.
For U.S. patients, the price of Sotyktu is set at $6,146 (excluding discounts and rebates) for a one-month course of treatment. A year’s worth of therapy would cost $74,000. This is one-third more than the cost of treating psoriasis with Otezla (apremilast).
According to industry forecasts, deucravacitinib sales will reach $2.4 billion annually by 2026. Peak demand for deucravacitinib will easily reach $4 billion annually."

Perfect timing—BMY reports 2yr Sotyktu data in psoriasis at EADV conference:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bristol-myers-squibb-announces-sotyktu-063000160.html
FDA approves Sotyktu (deucravacitinib) for psoriasis:
https://investors.bms.com/iframes/press-releases/press-release-details/2022/U.S.-Food-and-Drug-Administration-Approves-Sotyktu-deucravacitinib-Oral-Treatment-for-Adults-with-Moderate-to-Severe-Plaque-Psoriasis/default.aspx
The label does not include JAK-like black-box warnings or usage restrictions, validating BMY’s contention that Sotyktu's TYK2 target is well differentiated from JAK1/2/3.
BMY expects eventual Sotyktu approval in other autoimmune indications and foresees peak annual sales of at least $4B.
BMY/JNJ—Milvexian phase-2 data in treatment of acute ischemic stroke…
PR:
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/breaking-results-phase-2-axiomatic-073600645.html

Milvexian is an oral inhibitor of Factor XIa being co-developed by BMY and JNJ (#msg-140083631). For BMY specifically, Milvexian is the company’s hope for replacing Eliquis revenue when Eliquis goes off-patent in 2028.
In the trial reported today, Milvexian + Plavix/aspirin was compared to Plavix/aspirin alone at five different Milvexian doses. Despite the lackluster results, which include a flat dose response, BMY/JNJ have committed to a phase-3 program for Milvexian in three indications: secondary stroke prevention; ACS; and primary stroke prevention in patients with AF. The phase-3 trials are slated to start by year-end 2022 (see slide #13). Curiously, the three phase-3 indications do not include either of the indications tested in phase-2, which are treatment of acute ischemic stroke (see above) and VTE prevention (#msg-166773814).
The main competition for Milvexian is Bayer’s Asundexian, another oral FXIa inhibitor that just started phase-3 trials in AF/stroke prevention and treatment of acute ischemic stroke (https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220828005030/en ).
BMY has pegged Milvexian is a $5B+ opportunity (not risk adjusted—see slide #20), but this seems optimistic in light of the dataset released today.
