BioXcel Therapeutics (BTAI) Misses Q3 EPS by 27c

November 12, 2020 7:06 AM EST

BioXcel Therapeutics (NASDAQ: BTAI) reported Q3 EPS of ($1.07), $0.27 worse than the analyst estimate of ($0.80).

“Building on the successful data readout from the Phase 3 SERENITY trials earlier this year, we have continued to make substantial progress with BXCL501’s development as a treatment for agitation across neuropsychiatric conditions,” stated Vimal Mehta, Chief Executive Officer of BTI. “Recently, we completed our pre-NDA meeting with the FDA and have initiated rolling submission of the NDA. This is a key milestone for our neuroscience franchise, laying a strong foundation for multiple follow-on indications and a catalyst for the ongoing build of our commercial infrastructure. While the TRANQUILITY and RELEASE trials advance, we are preparing to initiate a Phase 2 trial for agitation associated with delirium. Together, we believe that these trials, along with our strong cash position, will help to support our long-term strategy of establishing BXCL501 as an innovative treatment for agitation regardless of the patient’s underlying diagnosis.”

Dr. Mehta continued, “We are also making excellent strides advancing our immuno-oncology program, with two combination therapy trials progressing well. Earlier this week, we presented encouraging preliminary efficacy and safety data at SITC from both the Phase 1b/2 trial of BXCL701 and KEYTRUDA® for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer and the MD Anderson-led Phase 2 basket trial in advanced solid tumors. Across both trials, we have already seen promising signals of activity in numerous difficult-to-treat tumors.”
