Verastem Oncology’s Q2 2025 Financial and Business Highlights

Verastem Inc ( (VSTM) ) has released its Q2 earnings. Here is a breakdown of the information Verastem Inc presented to its investors.

Verastem Oncology is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing new medicines for RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers, with a pipeline that includes novel small molecule drugs targeting critical cancer signaling pathways.

In the second quarter of 2025, Verastem Oncology reported significant milestones, including the FDA approval and successful launch of their AVMAPKI FAKZYNJA CO-PACK for KRAS-mutated recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer, achieving $2.1 million in net product revenue within the first six weeks. The company also dosed the first patient in a U.S. trial for VS-7375, an oral KRAS G12D inhibitor, and made progress in their RAMP 205 trial for metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Key financial highlights for the quarter include total revenue of $2.1 million, a decrease from $10 million in the previous year, primarily due to the absence of a one-time milestone payment. Operating expenses increased to $45.9 million, driven by higher research and development and selling, general, and administrative costs. The company ended the quarter with $164.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, providing a cash runway into the second half of 2026.

Strategically, Verastem is advancing its clinical trials, including the RAMP 301 trial for ovarian cancer and the RAMP 205 trial for pancreatic cancer, while also expanding its VS-7375 program with new cohorts. The company is focused on building momentum from recent product launches and advancing its RAS/MAPK-pathway focused portfolio.

Looking ahead, Verastem Oncology aims to continue its progress in clinical trials and regulatory pathways, with expectations of reporting key trial updates and advancing its pipeline in the second half of 2025. The company remains committed to developing innovative treatments for patients with RAS/MAPK pathway-driven cancers.
