Forward guidance

Curis plans to initiate dosing in the combination stage of the Phase 1/2 study of CA-4948 plus azacitidine and CA-4948 plus venetoclax, report additional clinical data from the Phase 1/2 monotherapy study of CA-4948 in AML/MDS patients with spliceosome mutations, and report initial safety data from the ongoing Phase 1 monotherapy study of CI-8993 for the treatment of R/R solid tumors.

Tailwinds

  • Initiate dosing in the combination stage of the Phase 1/2 study of CA-4948 plus azacitidine and CA-4948 plus venetoclax in the second half of 2021.
  • Report additional clinical data from the Phase 1/2 monotherapy study of CA-4948 in AML/MDS patients with spliceosome mutations by year-end 2021.
  • Report initial safety data from the ongoing Phase 1 monotherapy study of CI-8993 for the treatment of R/R solid tumors by year-end 2021.
  • Report initial data at a medical meeting from the ongoing Phase 1/2 combination study of CA-4948 plus ibrutinib in patients with B cell cancers in the first half of 2022.
  • Existing cash, cash equivalents and investments should enable it to maintain its planned operations into 2024.

Headwinds

  • Curis may experience adverse results, delays and/or failures in its drug development programs.
  • Curis's drug candidates may cause unexpected toxicities, fail to demonstrate sufficient safety and efficacy in clinical studies and/or may never achieve the requisite regulatory approvals needed for commercialization.
  • Favorable results seen in preclinical studies and early clinical trials of Curis's drug candidates may not be replicated in later trials.
  • Curis faces risks relating to the transfer and encumbrance of certain royalty and royalty-related payments on commercial sales of Erivedge.
  • Curis faces substantial competition.
