Nuvation Bio Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

Initiated both dosing regimens of the Phase 1b study of NUV-868 in combination with olaparib or enzalutamide

Dosing ongoing for Phase 1 monotherapy study of NUV-868

Nominated undisclosed Drug-Drug Conjugate (DDC) as first clinical candidate; expect to submit an IND by year end 2023

Strong balance sheet with cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $661.0 million as of December 31, 2022

Nuvation Bio Inc. (NYSE: NUVB), a biopharmaceutical company tackling some of the greatest unmet needs in oncology by developing differentiated and novel therapeutic candidates, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022, and provided a business update.

“In the fourth quarter, we dosed the first patient in both dosing regimens of our Phase 1b study of NUV-868 in combination with olaparib or enzalutamide. This milestone sustains the program’s strong momentum, which we expect to continue in 2023. As we advance the Phase 1 monotherapy and combination studies of NUV-868, we look forward to more deeply understanding how this therapy may be able to improve the lives of patients with advanced solid tumors,” said David Hung, M.D., Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvation Bio. “We also expect to submit an IND for the first clinical candidate from our DDC platform by the end of the year.”

Recent Business Updates

NUV-868, BD2-Selective BETi: Advanced solid tumors

  • Dosed the first patient in both dosing regimens of the Phase 1b combination study. In December 2022, Nuvation Bio initiated a Phase 1b study of NUV-868 in combination with olaparib in patients with ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), triple negative breast cancer, and other solid tumors, and in combination with enzalutamide in patients with mCRPC.

Drug-Drug Conjugate Platform: Solid tumors

  • Nominated first clinical candidate. Nuvation Bio expects to submit an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for an undisclosed DDC candidate with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by year end 2023.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

As of December 31, 2022, Nuvation Bio had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $661.0 million.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, research and development expenses were $16.9 million, compared to $22.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.7 million decrease in third-party costs related to research services and manufacturing, as well as a $1.5 million decrease in personnel-related costs driven by the termination of the NUV-422 program offset by a $0.1 million increase in miscellaneous expenses. Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $87.8 million compared to $69.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses were $7.4 million, compared to $7.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $0.4 million decrease in legal fees, a $0.2 million decrease in professional fees, and a $0.2 million decrease in miscellaneous expenses offset by a $0.5 million increase in personnel-related costs driven by an increase in headcount and stock-based compensation and a $0.1 million increase in taxes. General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $31.9 million compared to $24.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, Nuvation Bio reported a net loss of $20.8 million, or $(0.10) per share. This compares to a net loss of $25.1 million, or $(0.12) per share, for the comparable period in 2021. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $104.2 million compared to $86.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.
