I'll now hand the call over to Kate.

Thank you, Jenna, and good morning, everyone.
In the second quarter, we entered a new era of Blueprint Medicines, which we call precision at scale. This inflection is driven by significant near-term growth opportunity for AYVAKIT with the recent FDA approval and ISM. With AYVAKIT, ISM patients now have the first and only medicine approved to treat their disease, and importantly, a medicine that was specifically designed to stop ISM at its source.
