Bicycle awaits pancreatic cancer results; Duravelo-2 survival data now expected in 2027

Bicycle Therapeutics is a clinical-stage company developing nuzefatide pevedotin, a small peptide that delivers chemotherapy to tumors with EphA2, for pancreatic cancer; it is not approved.

Bicycle's case rests on nuzefatide, an EphA2-targeting drug conjugate, after zelenectide was deprioritized. Its recurrent pancreatic cancer Phase 2 first dosed a patient in April 2026; further updates are expected in 2027, while supporting pancreatic activity remains preclinical. Randomized Duravelo-2 survival data are now expected in the second half of 2027. Following workforce reductions, cash of $469.9 million at September 30, 2026 supports management's expected runway into 2030.
