Hi. Thanks for taking my question. Just quickly on Zepzelca, just curious if there was any strange trend at the end of the year, we saw it compressing a little bit. And then what can we expect from Zepzelca this year? I know you're filing the sNDA? The approval is not expected to expect until 2026, but could we be seeing some entity and guideline -- compendia listing for this specific indication?
Renée Galá: Yes. Thanks for the question. This is Renée. So in terms of what we've seen with Zepzelca, we have continued to see strong performance. I would say typically from Q3 to Q4, we do have a dynamic where there are less buying days for our distributor in Q4, compared to Q3. We had a similar dynamic in 2023, so that did have some impact. I will note, though, that as we mentioned on the call, our sales increased 11% to $320 million in 2024. That was the highest year ever for Zepzelca and that is with a competitive entrant in the market with [Imdelltra] (ph). As we look at 2025, we mentioned we plan to file in the first half of this year for our first-line extensive stage with our first-line extensive-stage data, we will not be promoting, of course, in the first line until we have that approval. We would hope to get on treatment guidelines as soon as we have the data out and available and in a peer-reviewed journal, which we're working diligently on. And then I would also say that the benefit, of course, in the first line is to be able to reach patients earlier in their overall treatment journey. We do believe there's a larger group of patients to access 27,000 in first-line versus 17,000 in the second-line and about 70% of those first-line patients are extensive stage. There's also longer duration of treatment in the first-line. So we do expect to see growth in Zepzelca, but again, we won't be promoting in the first-line until we have an actual approval. And then if I just step back and think about Zepzelca's positioning in the second-line, while we would expect to see Imdelltra as a new competitive entrant to see some gain in the second line, I'd also say we continue to receive a lot of positive feedback from physicians on Zepzelca. In terms of its clinical benefit, the ease of use, it does not require extended monitoring or an inpatient stay, which is, of course, different from Imdelltra. So we do expect to continue to see some strength in Zepzelca, and we look forward to having the ability to promote in the first line.
