Phio’s ongoing Phase 1b dose escalation clinical trial (NCT 06014086) is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of neoadjuvant use of intratumoral PH-762 in Stages 1, 2 and 4 cSCC, Stage 4 melanoma, and Stage 4 Merkel cell carcinoma. To date, a total of 15 patients with cutaneous carcinomas have been treated across the four cohorts. There were no dose-limiting toxicities or clinically relevant treatment-emergent adverse effects in the patients receiving intratumoral PH-762 in this trial. Moreover, PH-762 has been well tolerated in all enrolled patients in each escalating dose cohort. No patients exhibited clinical progression of disease.

The cumulative pathologic response in 13 patients with cSCC include five complete response (100% clearance), one patient with a near complete response (>90% clearance) and one with a partial response (>50% clearance) and six patients with a pathologic non-response (< 50% clearance).

The one Merkel cell carcinoma patient with stage 4 metastatic disease had a partial response (>50% clearance). The melanoma patient was a non-responder (<50% clearance).

Phio is now enrolling what is expected to be the 5th and final cohort in the Phase 1b study.

"The positive safety and efficacy outcomes through the fourth cohort continue to indicate that PH-762 may present a viable non-surgical alternative in this large and continually expanding skin cancer market," said Robert Bitterman, CEO and Chairman of Phio Pharmaceuticals.

Financial Results from Year Ended March 31, 2025

The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $6.8 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 ("Fiscal 2025"), which includes approximately $0.2 million of net non-cash expenses. This compares to a net loss of approximately $75.4 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 ("Fiscal 2024"), which included approximately $60.9 million of net non-cash expenses. Net loss decreased by approximately $68.6 million year-over-year, which is primarily due to lower non-cash losses attributable to full impairment of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets, goodwill, and certain investments as of March 31, 2024.

Operating expenses, including research and development ("R&D") costs and general and administrative ("G&A") expenses, were $7.4 million in the Fiscal 2025, down from $18.2 million in the Fiscal 2024, a decrease of $10.8 million, as detailed below.

R&D expenses decreased by approximately $9.4 million, or approximately 75%, from approximately $12.5 million in Fiscal 2024, to approximately $3.1 million in Fiscal 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to clinical trial costs (principally CRO-related), which decreased by approximately $3.4 million, from $5.2 million in Fiscal 2024 to $1.8 million in Fiscal 2025, due to the decision to pause enrollment in our sponsored clinical trials in the third and fourth quarters of Fiscal 2024. Manufacturing-related costs decreased by $1.6 million from $1.8 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $0.2 million in Fiscal 2025, related to the iNKT and adenosine clinical trials. During Fiscal 2024, we deprioritized development of the iNKT program and closed the related clinical trial. In August 2024, we temporarily paused enrollment in the PORT-6 arm of the study. Enrollment resumed in March 2025 with the initiation of the final dose escalation cohort. Non-cash share-based compensation expense allocable to R&D decreased by $1.4 million, from $1.4 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to nil in Fiscal 2025, as the relevant share options fully vested by Fiscal 2024 and no new share option awards were allocable to R&D during Fiscal 2025. Payroll-related expenses decreased by $0.9 million from $1.6 million in Fiscal 2024 to $0.7 million in Fiscal 2025; the decrease in salaries is primarily due to reduced headcount. R&D services decreased by $0.5 million due to the pause of medical writing, analysis, and clinical studies at the beginning of Fiscal 2025. Scientific consulting fees decreased by approximately $0.6 million from $0.8 million in Fiscal 2024 to $0.2 million in Fiscal 2025 to reflect the decrease in activity year-over-year. Additionally, in Fiscal 2024, we incurred a one-time milestone payment of $0.5 million for dosing our first adenosine patients, and finally, $0.5 million in fees paid with respect to the transition of the iNKT study prior to discontinuing the study in Fiscal 2024.

G&A expenses decreased by approximately $1.4 million, or approximately 24.9%, from approximately $5.7 million in Fiscal 2024, to approximately $4.3 million in Fiscal 2025. The decreases are attributable to decreases in: non-cash share-based compensation expense allocable to G&A expenses by $0.9 million, from $1.2 million in Fiscal 2024 to $0.3 million in Fiscal 2025, primarily due to the vesting of certain share options granted in prior years fully vesting by Fiscal 2024 and lower fair value associated with more recent grants; professional fees by $0.7 million, from $2.3 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $1.6 million in Fiscal 2025, primarily due to decline in public relations and accounting services related expenses; directors’ fees by $0.1 million, from $0.3 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $0.2 million Fiscal 2025 due to the adoption of a new director compensation policy in March 2025; and general office related supplies and expenses by $0.1 million, from $0.2 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to $0.1 million in Fiscal 2025. These decreases were offset to some extent by an increase in payroll-related and consulting expenses by $0.4 million from $0.9 million in Fiscal 2024 to $1.3 million in Fiscal 2025 primarily attributable to $0.2 million in retention payments to an employee and a consultant included in payroll expenses allocable to general and administrative expenses.

The primary reasons for the year-over-year differences in the Company’s pre-tax items of income and expense were substantially non-cash in nature, aggregating approximately $0.6 million net gain in Fiscal 2025 compared to approximately $67.7 million net loss in Fiscal 2024. The net gain in year over year were attributable to $0.9 million net gain from the settlement and release of obligations and liabilities under the Master Services Agreement between iOx and Parexel partially offset to some extent by the $0.4 million non-cash loss from the change in the fair value of certain warrants accounted for as liabilities, issued in connection with a private placement offering in October 2023 in Fiscal 2025. In Fiscal 2024, the recognized full impairment of the carrying value of in-process research and development of $57.9 million for iOx and $23.6 million for Tarus, as well as a $1.0 million loss on the impairment of the Company’s investment in Stimunity and the Stimunity convertible note. These expenses were partially offset by the non-cash gains from the decrease in the fair value of the deferred purchase price payable to the former Tarus shareholders and the deferred obligation for the iOx milestone, totaling $11.3 million. These losses were offset to some extent by a $0.7 million gain on the sale of Intensity shares, accounted for under fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI), which had a carrying value of $2.1 million and a $2.4 million loss during Fiscal 2024 from the Company’s equity financing in October 2023, representing the excess of the fair value of certain warrants over the net proceeds. Additionally, a $6.9 million non-cash gain was recognized from the change in the fair value of certain warrants accounted for as liabilities issued in connection with this equity offering.

Additionally, the Company recognized a non-cash net deferred income tax benefit of $10.5 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to a non-cash net deferred income tax benefit of $3 thousand in Fiscal 2025. The benefit in Fiscal 2024 was primarily attributable to the tax effect of the non-cash impairment loss on IPR&D for iOx, partially offset by the derecognition of previously recognized losses.

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.7 million and total current liabilities of approximately $1.1 million.

Chugai reported increased revenue and operating profit year-on-year for the second quarter (Core-basis).

Regarding revenue, domestic sales increased by 2.8%. In the oncology field, sales decreased by 1.9%. While new products Phesgo performed well and Lunsumio steadily penetrated the market, this was offset by the decline in Perjeta and Herceptin along with the market penetration of Phesgo which includes the same active pharmaceutical ingredients. Additionally, products including our mainstay product Avastin were affected by NHI drug price revisions and biosimilars. In the specialty field, sales increased by 8.4%, driven by significant growth of the mainstay product Vabysmo and successful market penetration of the new product PiaSky. Overseas sales increased by 7.3%, driven by a substantial increase in exports of Actemra to Roche. Other revenue decreased by 0.4%, despite the increase in royalty income related to Hemlibra, mainly due to a decrease in one-time income.

Cost to sales ratio increased by 1.3 percentage points year-on-year to 34.3%, mainly due to changes in the product mix. Research and development expenses increased by 2.7% due to investments into drug discovery and early development, and increase associated with the progress of development projects, while selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by 2.6% due to efficient management of various expenses. Other operating income (expense) resulted in income of ¥0.4 billion. As a result, Core operating profit was ¥272.0 billion (+3.5%).

Chugai made good progress in both early and late-stage development activities.

In early-stage development of in-house projects that will drive mid to long-term growth, GYM329 (for obesity) and Hemlibra (for von Willebrand disease) have initiated Phase II and Phase III clinical trials, respectively. Additionally, AUBE00 (for solid tumors), the second clinical-stage project following LUNA18 in our mid-size molecule pipeline, has initiated Phase I clinical trials. In late-stage development, Alecensa has been filed for approval for additional tumor agnostic indication in ALK fusion / rearrangement gene-positive solid tumors, including pediatric patients. In-house projects out-licensed to third parties excluding Roche also progressed steadily, with AVMAPKI, out-licensed to Verastem Oncology, receiving approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in combination with FAKZYNJA for KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer, under the accelerated approval pathway* based on overall response rate and duration of response.

Chugai has made the management decision to discontinue our development of five projects from early-stage in-house clinical development pipeline; LUNA18, SAIL66, SOF10, STA551, and AMY109. Since the launch of TOP I 2030 in 2021, we have continuously generated new projects and built technological foundations through enhanced RED functions. The number of early-stage projects has been increasing, with nine in-house projects entering clinical development over the four-year period. For early-stage clinical development pipeline, we have prioritized in-house projects after considering obtained data and the current portfolio situation, resulting in the decision to discontinue these five projects. Through this decision, we aim to maximize the success rate of achieving TOP I 2030 goals through dynamic and strategic allocation of resources to priority projects.

*Continued approval may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.

For products in-licensed from Roche, Elevidys has obtained regulatory approval as a regenerative medicine product for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy under the conditional and time-limited approval pathway in Japan. Vabysmo has received approval for an additional indication for angioid streaks, and Evrysdi has launched a new formulation in Japan. Lunsumio has been filed for an additional indication in combination with Polivy for relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and Tecentriq has been filed for an additional indication for unresectable thymic cancer. Additionally, Vabysmo (for non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy) and inavolisib (for PIK3CA mutated breast cancer) have initiated new clinical trials.

"At Janux, we are guided by a deep commitment to scientific excellence and a belief that innovation should translate into meaningful outcomes for patients," said David Campbell, Ph.D., President and CEO of Janux Therapeutics. "The progress we’ve shared today across our TRACTr, TRACIr, and ARM platforms reflects our disciplined strategy to focus first on maximizing the benefit and value of our clinical program JANX007, second to harness the value of our clinical experience by bringing forward TRACTrs where we can potentially be first- and/or best-in-class, and third to utilize our T cell engager development expertise to enable platform technologies that address other clear gaps in the treatment landscape."

Creating an Opportunity to Further Differentiate JANX007 with TRACIr Combination

Janux is advancing its CD28-based TRACIr platform designed to enhance T cell activation and durability of its CD3-based TRACTr platform. TRACIr was built on the same technology with the same tumor-activation and PK design features as TRACTr and combines tumor targeting with immune costimulation. The TRACIr platform represents a strategic extension of Janux’s tumor-activated approach, designed to complement and enhance the clinical potential of its TRACTr portfolio, beginning with PSMA-TRACTr JANX007.

While JANX007 has already demonstrated differentiated clinical activity in late-stage metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients, the addition of a PSMAxCD28-TRACIr introduces a costimulatory signal that may further enhance durability of response within the tumor microenvironment. This combination has the potential to drive more prolonged anti-tumor effects without increasing systemic toxicity, positioning Janux to further differentiate JANX007 in the mCRPC treatment landscape. IND-enabling studies are underway for the PSMA-TRACIr, with clinical trials in combination with JANX007 expected to begin in the second half of 2026.

Expanding the TRACTr Platform into High-Value Oncology Indications

Building upon learnings from the JANX007 and JANX008 clinical programs, Janux introduced its latest trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) TRACTr program. This next-generation TROP2-TRACTr was engineered for potential best-in-class safety and efficacy across a broad range of TROP2-expressing tumors, including breast, lung and bladder cancers. Janux’s TROP2-TRACTr exemplifies the TRACTr technology’s ability to create high-value T cell engager (TCE) product candidates directed at tumor targets that contemporary TCE technologies have been unable to access due to broad healthy tissue expression.

Janux’s TROP2-TRACTr product candidate demonstrated strong potency across multiple tumor types, activity at low TROP2 expression levels, and was well tolerated in non-human primates with no signs of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) or healthy tissue toxicity. This preclinical data also displayed the ability to overcome limitations of existing TROP2-targeted therapies, including antibody drug conjugates. These findings support a wide therapeutic window and the potential for best-in-class performance in TROP2-expressing solid tumors. IND-enabling activities are planned in the second half of 2025.

ARM Platform Redefines T-Cell Engagers for Autoimmune Disease and Oncology

Janux also introduced its Adaptive Immune Response Modulator (ARM) bispecific platform, designed to overcome the limitations of conventional TCEs in autoimmune diseases and oncology.

Builds upon Janux’s expertise to redesign bispecific TCEs.
Differentiated non-clinical profile provides best-in-class opportunity in autoimmune diseases.
Potential broad applicability across multiple disease areas.
Large safety window and off-the-shelf format position it for higher dosing, rapid development and potential best-in-class performance.
The lead program, a CD19-ARM, has displayed rapid, deep and durable B-cell depletion in periphery and tissues with a prolonged memory B cell reset while maintaining a large safety window in non-human primates, supporting a potential best-in-class profile.

ARMs exhibit differentiated durable T cell activity with reduced T cell exhaustion preclinically.
The program demonstrated prolonged memory B-cell depletion and immune reset from a single subcutaneous dose, reflecting the durability seen with CD19 CAR-T therapies but with greater safety and convenience.
ARMs displayed potential to dose to maximum efficacy while enabling safer, outpatient-friendly dosing.
In non-human primates, CD19-ARM achieved deep and durable B-cell depletion in both blood and lymphoid tissues with a >100x CRS safety window.
The CD19-ARM is on track for first-in-human studies to begin in the first half of 2026.

Janux’s TRACTr, TRACIr and ARM Pipeline

Janux’s first clinical candidate, JANX007, is a TRACTr that targets prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and is being investigated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in adult patients with mCRPC. Janux’s second clinical candidate, JANX008, is a TRACTr that targets epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and is being studied in a Phase 1 clinical trial for the treatment of multiple solid cancers including colorectal carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, non-small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma, small cell lung cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and triple-negative breast cancer. Janux is also advancing additional CD3-based TRACTr and CD28-based TRACIr programs for future clinical development, including a PSMA-TRACIr for use in combination with our PSMA-TRACTr JANX007, and a TROP2-TRACTr for the treatment of TROP2+ solid tumors. Janux is also advancing its first ARM platform program candidate, a CD19-ARM for the potential treatment of autoimmune diseases toward clinical trials.
