Incyte Corporation’s oral JAK1/2 inhibitor Jakafi (ruxolitinib) has grown to dominate the myelofibrosis market since its approval in 2011. For many years, it was the company’s only commercial asset, and it remains Incyte’s top seller by a wide margin, but it is facing loss of exclusivity (LOE) in 2028. However, while it is under pressure to diversify its revenue base through new products, the company expects to achieve milestones for multiple assets in 2024 that could reach the market ahead of the Jakafi LOE.
