Hookipa Pharma reports Q2 EPS (22c), consensus (21c)

Reports Q2 revenue $2.7M, consensus $4.87M. “A key highlight was reporting our positive preliminary Phase 2 data on HB-200 in combination with pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer. We continue to collect evidence that our novel arenaviral technology may help address unmet needs in cancer, with greater objective response rates than the current standard of care and clear trends towards duration of clinical benefit,” said Joern Aldag, Chief Executive Officer at HOOKIPA Pharma. “We’re pleased investors also acknowledged the strength of our data with the $50 million capital raise. We’re now focused on preparing for the randomized trial of HB-200 in combination with pembrolizumab to start in the first half of 2024, as well as continuing to advance our clinical programs and diverse pipeline overall.”
