- On track to select a KIT inhibitor development candidate in the fourth quarter and plans to move into the clinic shortly thereafter.
- Plans to expand its presence in immunology and introduce a second program in 2024.
- Enanta expects that its current cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, as well as its retained portion of future royalty revenue, will be sufficient to meet the anticipated cash requirements of its existing business and development programs through the third quarter of fiscal 2027.
- The research and development expense increase reflects the impact of the company’s new immunology programs as well as additional efforts to accelerate the RSV clinical studies.
