Gritstone reports Q2 EPS (16c), consensus (28c)

Reports Q2 revenue $921K, consensus $1.37M…Cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash of $61.7 M as of June 30, –“This is an exciting time for Gritstone, as we are on the cusp of unlocking important data about our promising new therapeutic modality in front-line metastatic microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer MSS-CRC ,” said Andrew Allen, MD, PhD, Co-founder, President & CEO of Gritstone bio. “Up to 95% of patients with metastatic CRC, the second most common cause of cancer death, are MSS. Delivering a new treatment option to these patients, who do not benefit from today’s immunotherapies, would be transformative. The emerging progression-free survival PFS benefit we reported in April is highly encouraging, especially in this tough to treat patient population. We have waited for these clinical data to mature and look forward to sharing the updated dataset next month. If we continue to see evidence of a clinical benefit with GRANITE, as measured by PFS, we believe new hope can be brought to patients who have not been helped by immune checkpoint blockade.” Dr. Allen added, “Along with advancing GRANITE in CRC, our team continues to innovate across our programs, reinforcing the potential of our underlying technologies. Our recent AACR presentation highlights the unique power of EDGE(TM), our proprietary neoantigen identification platform that underpins all our programs. Our recent presentation at ESCMID showcases the ability of our self-amplifying mRNA vector samRNA to induce long-lasting immune responses. Gritstone remains uniquely positioned to deliver on the promise of next-generation vaccine technologies to prevent, treat and eradicate disease.”
