About
Incyte Corporation is a Wilmington, Delaware-based biopharmaceutical company — publicly traded on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: INCY) as an S&P 500 Health Care component — focused on oncology and inflammation, best known for Jakafi (ruxolitinib), the first FDA-approved therapy for myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera — rare blood cancers driven by JAK kinase pathway mutations — and the topical ruxolitinib cream Opzelura (for atopic dermatitis and vitiligo). In fiscal year 2024, Incyte reported revenues of approximately $3.9 billion, with Jakafi net product revenues of approximately $2.7 billion (the primary revenue driver) and collaboration revenues from Novartis (which pays Incyte royalties on Jakavi — the ex-US brand name for ruxolitinib — representing a significant royalty income stream from international myelofibrosis and polycythemia vera markets). CEO Hervé Hoppenot's strategy of building a diversified hematology-oncology pipeline beyond ruxolitinib has progressed through the development of axatilimab (anti-CSF-1R monoclonal antibody for chronic graft-versus-host disease — FDA-approved 2024 as Niktimvo) and povorcitinib (JAK inhibitor for prurigo nodularis and hidradenitis suppurativa — phase 3 trials in dermatology). Incyte's JAK inhibitor chemistry platform (ruxolitinib — Jakafi/Opzelura/Jakavi, parsaclisib, itacitinib, tofacitinib licensed from Pfizer collaboration) provides a productive medicinal chemistry foundation for developing next-generation kinase inhibitors with more selective pharmacology profiles.
