Amgen reported positive top-line results from its Phase 3 OASIZ 301 trial of dazodalibep in patients with moderate-to-severe systemic Sjogren's disease, a chronic autoimmune condition that attacks moisture-producing glands and currently has no FDA-approved treatment. The trial enrolled approximately 621 patients and met its primary endpoint based on the ESSDAI disease activity score at Week 48, with meaningful reductions in disease activity observed as early as Week 4 and sustained throughout the study period.

The result positions dazodalibep as a potential first-ever approved therapy for Sjogren's disease, though a regulatory filing is not yet imminent. Amgen is awaiting data from a second Phase 3 study, OASIZ 303, which focuses on symptomatic Sjogren's disease and is expected to complete in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Amgen shares rose roughly 2% in premarket trading and were among the largest midday movers on Wall Street, as reported by CNBC. The stock outperformed broader market competitors on the day, according to MarketWatch.
