Corvus Pharmaceuticals shares rose 14% in after-market trading after the company said it would announce interim data from a Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating soquelitinib in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.

Shares were trading around $8.40 late Tuesday. For the year, the stock is up 320%.

The clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company said it will announce its data on Wednesday in a press release and present during a conference call and webcast.

Soquelitinib is an investigational treatment that selectively inhibits ITK, an enzyme that is expressed mostly in T cells and plays a role in T cell and natural killer cell immune function, according to Corvus.
