Cardiff Oncology reports Q3 EPS (25c), consensus (27c)

Reports Q3 revenue $165,000, consensus $80,000. “This quarter has been exciting as our Phase 2 clinical trial in second-line KRAS-mutant mCRC was published in one of the most esteemed medical journals in the field of oncology, Journal of Clinical Oncology. Our findings demonstrated that onvansertib combined with FOLFIRI/bev was well-tolerated, and revealed a 7.7x greater clinical benefit in bev naive patients compared to patients who were previously treated with bev,” said Mark Erlander, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Cardiff Oncology (CRDF). “We believe the results of our JCO publication validate our ongoing CRDF-004 trial evaluating onvansertib + chemo for the treatment of mCRC in the first-line setting, where all patients are bev naive. Furthermore, we are pleased with the progress we have made in the trial as we leverage Pfizer’s resources and capabilities, and are grateful for the commitment from the patients and investigators at our trial sites across the U.S. As of today, the trial continues to generate patient data that will allow us to provide an initial data release by the end of the year. Overall, we are optimistic about onvansertib’s potential to become a meaningful treatment option for the 50,000 new patients diagnosed with RAS-mutated mCRC in the U.S. every year who have not had access to any new treatment options in several decades.”
