Insights
Compugen reports strong pipeline progress with clinical trials and partnerships while maintaining runway into 2027, despite quarterly revenue decline.
Compugen's Q2 2025 results showcase important progress across their immuno-oncology portfolio, particularly with their lead candidate COM701. The initiation of the MAIA-ovarian platform trial represents a significant advancement, testing COM701 as maintenance therapy in platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer patients. This strategic move into the maintenance setting could potentially expand COM701's market opportunity beyond the heavily-pretreated platinum-resistant population.
The financial picture shows a company effectively managing its resources. With
The company's partnership with AstraZeneca on rilvegostomig (containing Compugen's COM902 TIGIT component) represents a substantial potential value driver. AstraZeneca's ambitious development program with ten active Phase 3 trials positions rilvegostomig as a potential cornerstone immunotherapy. The mid-single digit tiered royalties Compugen would receive on future sales could translate to meaningful revenue if rilvegostomig gains approval and commercial traction.
The upcoming leadership transition, with Dr. Eran Ophir taking over as CEO and current CEO Dr. Cohen-Dayag moving to Executive Chair, appears to be a planned evolution rather than a disruptive change. This structured transition suggests organizational stability while the company executes on its clinical and partnership strategies.
The R&D expense reduction to
Compugen's immuno-oncology pipeline shows clinical progress with COM701 maintenance therapy and AstraZeneca's aggressive development of their TIGIT bispecific.
The initiation of the MAIA-ovarian platform trial represents a significant strategic advancement for Compugen's lead asset COM701. The first patient dosing in the maintenance therapy setting for platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer patients is particularly noteworthy because maintenance therapies can provide extended clinical benefit with potentially more favorable toxicity profiles compared to active treatment regimens. This approach could differentiate COM701 in the competitive landscape of ovarian cancer treatments.
The planned pooled analysis of COM701 data from three Phase 1 trials in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer at ESMO 2025 will be crucial for understanding the drug's efficacy profile in this difficult-to-treat population. Platinum-resistant ovarian cancer represents a significant unmet need with limited effective treatment options, and consistent signals of activity across multiple trials would strengthen COM701's development rationale.
AstraZeneca's extensive development program for rilvegostomig (incorporating Compugen's TIGIT technology) is particularly impressive. The bispecific antibody's unique cooperative binding mechanism targeting both PD-1 and TIGIT simultaneously represents an elegant approach to potentially overcome resistance to first-generation checkpoint inhibitors. The extensive Phase 3 program (ten active trials) demonstrates AstraZeneca's confidence in this approach.
The upcoming data presentations at ESMO 2025 for rilvegostomig in NSCLC and bladder cancer in combination with TROP2-ADC Datroway will be particularly important. These combinations represent the evolving paradigm in immuno-oncology where checkpoint inhibition is paired with targeted cytotoxic delivery via antibody-drug conjugates. Early encouraging data presented at ASCO suggests this approach may enhance immune response while delivering potent cytotoxics to tumor cells.
The progression of GS-0321 (COM503), a potential first-in-class anti-IL18BP antibody licensed to Gilead, adds another dimension to Compugen's pipeline. IL-18 binding protein (IL18BP) neutralizes IL-18, an important immunostimulatory cytokine. By blocking IL18BP, GS-0321 could potentially restore beneficial IL-18 activity within the tumor microenvironment, representing a novel immune activation mechanism distinct from traditional checkpoint inhibition.
- First patient dosed inÌýMAIA-ovarian platform trial of COM701 maintenance therapy in patients with platinum sensitive ovarian cancer in July 2025
- Pooled analysis from three previously reported Phase 1 trials of COM701 in platinum resistant ovarian cancer to be presented at ESMO 2025
- Recruitment ongoing in Phase 1 trial of GS-0321 (COM503) a potential first-in-class anti-IL18BP antibody licensed to Gilead
- Partner AstraZeneca plans to share updated rilvegostomig data from Phase 2 ARTEMIDE-01 in NSCLC and first data from Phase 2 TROPION-PanTumor03 in bladder cancer at ESMO 2025
- Solid financial position with cash runway expected to fund operations into 2027
HOLON,
"We continued to advance our immuno-oncology (IO) clinical and early-stage pipeline programs," said Anat Cohen-Dayag, Ph.D., President and CEO of Compugen.Ìý"We dosed the first patient in MAIA-ovarian, our global adaptive platform trial evaluating COM701 as a single agent for maintenance therapy in patients with relapsed platinum sensitive ovarian cancer (sub-trial 1). In addition, we are looking forward to presenting a pooled analysis of previously presented data from our three Phase 1 trials evaluating COM701 in heavily pretreated platinum resistant ovarian cancer at ESMO 2025 in October. We are also progressing the Phase 1 trial for GS-0321 a potential first-in-class anti-IL18BP antibody licensed to Gilead."
Dr. Cohen-Dayag continued, "We are excited to see the progress our partner AstraZeneca is making with its rilvegostomig program, with ten active Phase 3 trials. Rilvegostomig is an Fc reduced PD-1/TIGIT bispecific antibody, the TIGIT component of which is derived from our COM902, and which AstraZeneca has specifically designed and engineered with a unique mechanism of action to harness co-operative binding of both PD-1 and TIGIT to drive enhanced immune responses. At ASCO in June this year, AstraZeneca presented encouraging early data from trials evaluating rilvegostomig in combination with TROP2 ADC, Datroway, in NSCLC and in combination with chemotherapy in hepatobiliary cancer. The totality of this data along with data presented in 2024 highlight rilvegostomig as a potential IO backbone for future drug combinations. At the upcoming ESMO 2025 conference, AstraZeneca plans to share follow up data from ARTEMIDE-01 in NSCLC as a poster presentation and first data from TROPION-PanTumor03 in bladder cancer as a mini oral session. AstraZeneca's broad development strategy for rilvegostomig to replace existing PD(L)-1 inhibitors represents a significant potential revenue source for Compugen as we are eligible for both future milestone payments and mid-single digit tiered royalties on future sales."
Dr. Cohen-Dayag added, "Our solid financial position with a cash runway expected to fund operations into 2027 allows us to advance our pipeline of differentiated IO therapies and to leverage Unigenâ„� - our validated AI/ML-powered computational target discovery platform to discover novel mechanisms to activate the immune system against cancer. ÌýI look forward to transitioning leadership to Dr. Eran Ophir in September and the opportunity of stepping into the newly established role of Executive Chair. With this enhanced leadership expansion, a strategically differentiated pipeline and operational focus, Compugen is well positioned for growth."
Next Planned Milestones
