Spyre reports positive Phase 2 SPY003 data, completing proof-of-concept for IBD trio
SPY003 hit its primary endpoint in SKYLINE Part A, joining SPY001 and SPY002 with positive monotherapy results ahead of combination-arm data expected in 2027.
Spyre Therapeutics announced on September 8, 2026 that SPY003 met its primary endpoint with a statistically significant reduction of 10.0 points (p<0.0001) from baseline at Week 12 in Robart's Histopathology Index (RHI) score1, according to a press release attached to an 8-K filing. Secondary results included clinical remission by modified Mayo Score of 20% and endoscopic improvement of 30%1.
With this readout, Spyre has now reported positive Part A data for all three mechanisms in its IBD portfolio (α4β7, TL1A, and IL-23), with each component of the pairwise combinations in Part B reaching a clinical proof-of-concept stage1. The company noted that the 10.0-point RHI reduction for SPY003 lines up with reductions of 9.2 and 10.7 points reported earlier for SPY001 and SPY0021, and it described these as among the largest such changes reported in ulcerative colitis studies, according to the release.
On safety, SPY003 was well tolerated with a safety profile consistent with the IL-23 class, with 19 subjects reporting treatment-emergent adverse events during induction and three serious adverse events, none deemed drug-related1. The most common adverse events, each occurring in two patients, were arthralgia, nasopharyngitis, and urinary tract infection1. Data reflect 44 subjects through Week 12, with a data cut-off of July 27, 20261.
Looking ahead, Part B of SKYLINE will test two dose levels of each monotherapy along with three high-dose combination arms, SPY120, SPY130, and SPY230, with topline induction data expected in 20271. Spyre also listed SKYWAY topline data for SPY072 in PsA and axSpA expected in the fourth quarter of 2026, and SKYLIGHT data for SPY072 plus an IL-17A/F asset in HS expected in late 2027 or early 20281.
