Corvus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRVS) is a pioneering clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel immunotherapies to treat a broad spectrum of cancers and immune diseases. The company's core innovation is the selective inhibition of interleukin-2-inducible T cell kinase (ITK), which plays a crucial role in T cell and natural killer (NK) cell immune functions. Corvus' lead investigational product, soquelitinib (formerly CPI-818), has shown promise in optimizing T cell differentiation and enhancing immune responses against tumors, as well as in the management of autoimmune diseases.
Corvus is advancing soquelitinib through a Phase 3 registrational trial for relapsed peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL), an aggressive and typically treatment-resistant form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The company’s focus on ITK inhibition offers a new therapeutic approach, given the lack of FDA-approved treatments for relapsed PTCL. Soquelitinib has demonstrated the ability to prevent T cell exhaustion and promote the generation of cytotoxic killer T cells, critical in cancer therapy.
In addition, Corvus is investigating soquelitinib for other immune-mediated conditions, including atopic dermatitis. The company recently initiated a randomized, double-blind Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate soquelitinib in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis, aiming to provide an oral treatment alternative to current injectable biologics.
Other promising candidates in Corvus' pipeline include ciforadenant, an adenosine A2A receptor inhibitor that disables tumors' immune evasion mechanisms, and mupadolimab, a monoclonal antibody targeting CD73. These candidates are being studied for their efficacy in combination therapies for various cancers, including head and neck cancers and non-small cell lung cancer.
Financially, Corvus maintains a strong position, having raised significant capital through direct offerings to support its clinical trials and operational needs. With cash reserves projected to fund operations into late 2025, Corvus is well-positioned to achieve substantial milestones in its clinical programs. The company continues to foster critical partnerships, including collaborations with Angel Pharmaceuticals for the Chinese market.
Latest news highlights Corvus' progress in clinical trials and strategic financing moves, underscoring its commitment to bringing innovative immunotherapies to patients in need. For more information, visit the Corvus Pharmaceuticals website.
