Bicycle Therapeutics Shares Rise 8% After Continuation of BT8009 Development

By Chris Wack

 

Bicycle Therapeutics shares were up 8% at $22.63 after the company said it will proceed with its plan to expedite development of BT8009 for metastatic bladder cancer following recent discussions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The biotechnology company has aligned with the FDA on a Phase 2/3 registrational trial that has a design allowing for potential accelerated approval in untreated and previously treated metastatic bladder cancer.

Bicycle Therapeutics plans to initiate the trial in the first quarter of 2024.

The Phase 2/3 trial will assess BT8009 in untreated metastatic bladder cancer and previously treated metastatic bladder cancer. Discussions with the FDA about the design of the confirmatory trial for previously treated metastatic bladder cancer are ongoing.
