Reports Q2 revenue $988k, consensus $560 k. “The PATHFNDR program for acromegaly continues to progress as expected. Topline results from our Phase 3 PATHFNDR-1 study are expected in September and should provide insight into paltusotine’s potential as an alternative to standard-of-care somatostatin receptor ligand depot injections. Enrollment in our Phase 3 PATHFNDR-2 study is also now complete and we anticipate topline results in the first quarter of 2024,” said Scott Struthers, Ph.D., founder and chief executive officer of Crinetics. “Unfortunately, we also suffered a setback with our CRN04777 program and made the difficult decision to wind down its development. We know that infants and children living with congenital hyperinsulinism are in desperate need of better treatment options and our hearts go out to them and their families. However, our recently evolved understanding of the nonclinical profile of CRN04777 suggests that it no longer meets the high standards to which we hold all drug candidates in our pipeline.”
