During the 2016 American Society of Hematology meeting, Agios presented new information for its AG-348 and AG-519 molecules, which are used to treat pyruvate kinase deficiency. Agios mentioned that a case of Grade 2 thrombocytopenia, which reduces platelets in blood cells, was found in a patient receiving AG-519 and that after a dose of 300 mg, a negative event of drug-related cholestatic hepatitis was found in a bioavailability and food effect study. Following this release, Agios stock dropped, causing investors harm.
