AKESO's stock surged 5.24% during intraday trading on Monday, marking a significant upward movement for the biopharmaceutical company.
The sharp rise appears driven by continued positive investor sentiment following the release of encouraging clinical trial data. Recently at the AACR Annual Meeting, the company presented results from the COMPASSION-26 Phase II trial evaluating its PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific antibody cadonilimab in combination with chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The data demonstrated robust anti-tumor activity with median overall survival reaching 23.4 months and median progression-free survival of 11.1 months in patients with locally advanced unresectable disease, representing meaningful improvement in a difficult-to-treat cancer indication.
