Operational Metrics
Barzolvolimab - Chronic Urticarias: Enrollment for the global Phase 3 program in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), consisting of EMBARQ-CSU1 and EMBARQ-CSU2, was completed six months ahead of guidance, with 1,939 patients enrolled across 43 countries and over 500 sites. Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. also initiated a global Phase 3 study in cold urticaria (ColdU) and symptomatic dermographism (SD) in December 2025.
Barzolvolimab - Atopic Dermatitis and Prurigo Nodularis: Enrollment is complete for the Phase 2 study in atopic dermatitis (AD). The Phase 2 study in prurigo nodularis (PN) did not meet primary or key secondary endpoints, leading to its discontinuation, although barzolvolimab demonstrated a favorable safety profile and rapid suppression of circulating tryptase.
CDX-622 – Bispecific SCF & TSLP: Positive first-in-human data from the Phase 1 trial of bispecific CDX-622 demonstrated rapid, profound, dose-dependent, and durable reductions in serum tryptase, indicating tissue mast cell depletion. CDX-622 was well-tolerated across all study parts and dose levels, with no dose-limiting toxicities or related serious adverse events. A Phase 1 proof of mechanism study in mild to moderate asthma was initiated in January 2026, and the company is advancing expansion into additional indications, including allergic rhinitis and food allergy.
Outlook / Guidance
Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. expects topline data from the Barzolvolimab Phase 3 chronic spontaneous urticaria studies (EMBARQ-CSU 1 and 2) in September/October 2026, with a Biologics License Application (BLA) submission planned for 2027. The company anticipates topline data from the Phase 2 atopic dermatitis study in late 2026. Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. believes its cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2026, are sufficient to meet estimated working capital requirements and fund current planned operations through 2028.
