Elevation Oncology Plunges 42% on Ending Development of Lead Drug
Werte in diesem Artikel
Shares of Elevation Oncology ELEV plunged more than 40% yesterday after reporting disappointing data from a phase I study on its lead pipeline drug EO-3021 for treating advanced, unresectable or metastatic gastric and gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancers.Data from the study showed that patients who were treated with ELEV’s lead drug showed an objective response rate (ORR) of 22.2% —out of 36 evaluable patients, there was one complete response and seven partial responses.ELEV’s Stock PerformanceFollowing the disappointing study results, Elevation Oncology decided not to pursue further clinical development of EO-3021. Instead, the company will now shift its focus to solid tumor candidate EO-1022, for which an investigational new drug (IND) filing with the FDA is expected next year. As a result of this decision, ELEV is now without a pipeline candidate in clinical development. These factors were likely responsible for the significant drop in share price.Year to date, Elevation Oncology’s shares have plummeted nearly 51% against the industry’s 7% growth.Image Source: Zacks Investment ResearchELEV to Implement Workforce Reduction to Save CostsThe decision to terminate EO-3021 has led Elevation Oncology to restructure its business operations to reduce costs. In this regard, the company plans to reduce its workforce by 70%. This also includes the company’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Valerie Malyvanh Jansen, who will step down at the end of this month.ELEV believes that these actions will likely extend its cash balance of about $93 million (as of 2024-end) into second-half 2026.In connection with the restructuring activities, Elevation Oncology expects to incur around $3 million in restructuring costs, most of which will be spent by the end of June.ELEV’s Zacks RankElevation Oncology currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).Elevation Oncology, Inc.
