Radiopharm reports RAD 101 Phase 2b hit, plans Phase 3, cash falls to $4.1M
The company also disclosed a partial response in a RAD 204 trial patient and a quarterly cash outflow that leaves under one quarter of runway before recent raises.
Radiopharm Theranostics reported on July 31, 2026 that its Phase 2b trial of the imaging agent RAD 101 met its primary endpoint in July 2026, with 93% of patients treated achieving concordance with MRI imaging.1 An interim analysis of 14 patients from six-month follow-up and biopsy showed 86% (12 of 14) sensitivity.1
The trial enrolled 30 individuals with confirmed recurrent brain metastases from solid tumors of different origins1 in a single-arm U.S. study, and RAD 101 has received FDA Fast Track Designation.1 The company said it anticipates starting a Phase 3, multi-center, multi-country registrational study in the fourth quarter of 2026, with Siemens Healthineers manufacturing and distributing doses of the drug to support that trial.1
In its RAD 204 program targeting PD-L1, the company reported that the first patient dosed in the third cohort at 90mCi had a durable partial response confirmed by RECIST criteria, with tumor shrinkage of up to 43%, and remained progression-free after more than seven months.1
On finances, closing cash at quarter end was $4.1 million, down from $19.2 million the prior quarter.1 Net operating cash outflow for the period was $14.97 million, with R&D and staff costs making up 95% of operating spend.1 The company said this burn rate is not expected to continue, citing its view that the quarter's outflow is not representative of its go-forward profile, attributing the elevated spending to three factors tied to clinical milestones.1 After quarter end, the company received a $5.9 million Australian R&D tax incentive and completed a $12.5 million institutional offer, alongside a $6 million Share Purchase Plan already subscribed for up to $3 million.1 Estimated quarters of funding available at quarter end stood at 0.28.1
