“We are excited to begin dosing in the fifth cohort of our Phase 1 trial of our lead asset PYX-201, a first-in-class and first-in-concept tumor stroma targeting ADC against EDB-fibronectin in tumor stroma. We believe the progress we are making through the dose escalation portion of our trial speaks to the potential safety profile of our ADC drug candidate. Moreover, based on data from Pfizer’s HER2 ADC previously under development with the same linker and payload and our preclinical experiments, we believe that at 3.6 mg/kg and above, we are approaching biologically active dose levels,” said Lara S. Sullivan, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pyxis Oncology. “In order to maximize PYX-201’s chances of success, as well as those of PYX-106, we are announcing a number of initiatives to extend our cash runway into 2026, which we believe is the responsible thing to do in the current funding environment. We believe the actions we are taking best position Pyxis Oncology for future success, with our current cash resources now taking us beyond important near-term 2024 readouts for our ongoing clinical trials.”
Pam Connealy, COO and CFO of Pyxis Oncology added, “In addition to the cost reductions announced today, which include a 40% decrease in headcount, we are also seeking additional non-dilutive funding through the potential monetization of our acquired Apexigen royalty streams. Additionally, we are evaluating partnerships of several assets that we have chosen not to move into the clinic and potential antibody and ADC platform technology collaborations. We believe this increased focus on our lead and secondary assets, in addition to the changes we are making to the PYX-106 program, gives us the best chance for success in bringing our novel ADC and IO candidates to the patients who need them. We appreciate the contributions from our dedicated team members that have enabled us to reach this point in our clinical programs.”
