Shares of Candel Therapeutics surged after U.S. federal
regulators granted fast-track designation to its treatment for
pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The stock was up 58% at $1.37 in premarket trading. Shares had
fallen 51% year-to-date when the market closed Monday.
The clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company said Tuesday that
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted the designation for
CAN-2409, its lead investigational adenovirus asset, plus
valacyclovir as a treatment to improve overall survival in patients
with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The FDA's fast-track designation facilitates development and
expedites the review of drugs that treat serious or
life-threatening conditions and fill unmet medical needs.
