Compass Therapeutics reports Q3 EPS (8c), consensus (11c)

“We continue to be extremely encouraged with the progress across our clinical-stage programs, with three drugs already in the clinic and our deepening understanding of the potential clinical and regulatory pathways for each,” said Thomas Schuetz, MD, PhD, CEO of Compass and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. “In particular, we recently presented data showing a correlation between NCAM expression and disease control with CTX-471 monotherapy. Given the high prevalence of NCAM expression across multiple tumor types, we are planning a Phase 2 monotherapy trial evaluating CTX-471 in patients whose tumors express this biomarker. With respect to our lead asset, CTX-009, we are on track for a top-line data readout in the U.S. at the end of the first quarter of 2025 for COMPANION-002, our Phase 2/3 combination study in patients with advanced BTC. Regarding CTX-009 in CRC, we are designing a Phase 2 study in the second-line setting in patients with metastatic CRC utilizing the DLL4 biomarker based on our observations from COMPANION-003.”
