On October 22, Summit Therapeutics PLC fell 5.24% in Pre-Market Trading, with shares at $15.0 and turnover of $205.3 thousand.
The move followed the company’s announcement that it will collaborate with the ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group on a phase 2/3 trial evaluating ivonescimab as a first-line treatment for advanced biliary tract cancer.
The study will compare ivonescimab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin chemotherapy against pembrolizumab or durvalumab combined with the same chemotherapy, with overall survival as the primary endpoint. Trial sites are expected to begin opening in the fourth quarter. The update extends Summit Therapeutics PLC’s broader ivonescimab development push after recent kidney cancer study initiation and the previously completed $2 billion strategic equity investment from AstraZeneca.
