Cardiff Oncology (CRDF)
Cardiff Oncology (NASDAQ:CRDF) discovered a new way that its drug onvansertib works. Specifically, the new method directly reduces the activity of HIF1 alpha, a protein involved in cancer growth. Alongside bev, another cancer medication, the two drugs are more effective in stopping tumor growth.
Cardiff Oncology showed adaptability in its decision to discontinue its ONSEMBLE study, which explored onvansertib for cancer treatment as a secondary or follow-up treatment. Instead, the company is now concentrating on using onvansertib in a first-line setting, referring to the fact that this will be the initial therapy given to patients.
This decision comes with promising data trickling in from Phase 1b/2 clinical trials. In moving toward first-line treatment, Cardiff Oncology aims to unlock more of onvansertib’s potential to benefit a greater number of patients.
Finally, as of 2023, Cardiff Oncology held nearly $75 million in cash, indicating a robust standing. Overall, the business has enough cash to continue current clinical trials with a predicted cash runway into Q3 2025.
