Zenas BioPharma has announced positive results from its Phase 3 INDIGO registrational trial of the investigational drug, Obexelimab. The trial demonstrated a clinically significant and statistically robust 56% reduction in the risk of flare-ups associated with Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD), a condition that can lead to serious organ damage if untreated.
The results highlight Obexelimab’s potential as a promising treatment option for patients suffering from this complex autoimmune disease. The trial’s primary endpoint was met, showcasing the drug’s efficacy in managing symptoms of IgG4-RD.
Significant Efficacy Across Key Secondary Endpoints
In addition to the primary endpoint, Obexelimab also met all four key secondary efficacy endpoints, demonstrating statistically significant activity. This includes improvements in symptom relief and overall quality of life for patients.
The INDIGO trial marks a crucial step in Zenas BioPharma’s journey to bring Obexelimab to market. The company has been focused on developing innovative therapies for patients with autoimmune disorders, and these promising results could pave the way for regulatory approval.
Dr. David Thompson, Chief Medical Officer at Zenas BioPharma, expressed enthusiasm about the results, stating, “
These findings reinforce our commitment to providing effective treatments for patients facing IgG4-RD. We are excited about the potential impact of Obexelimab on patient care.

As Zenas BioPharma prepares for the next stages of development, including discussions with regulatory bodies, the company looks to gather further data to support the drug’s potential approval. The success of the INDIGO trial not only strengthens the case for Obexelimab but also highlights the ongoing need for effective therapies in the realm of autoimmune diseases.
The company anticipates presenting additional data from the trial at upcoming medical conferences, further underlining its commitment to transparency and scientific dialogue. This is an important development for both Zenas BioPharma and the patients who stand to benefit from new treatment options in the future.
With these results, Zenas BioPharma is poised to make significant strides in the treatment of IgG4-RD, a condition that has long presented challenges for both patients and healthcare providers. The company continues to advocate for innovative solutions that address unmet medical needs in the autoimmune space, potentially changing the landscape for future therapies.
