NuCana Reports Second Quarter 2020 Financial Results and Provides Business Update
- EDINBURGH, United Kingdom, Aug. 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NuCana plc (NASDAQ: NCNA) announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 and provided an update on its broad clinical program with its transformative ProTide therapeutics. As of June 30, 2020, NuCana had cash and cash equivalents of £47.8 million compared to £47.6 million as of March 31, 2020 and £52.0 million as of December 31, 2019. NuCana continues to advance its various clinical programs and reported a net loss of £6.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, as compared to £4.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Basic and diluted loss per share was £0.19 for the quarter as compared to £0.14 per share for the prior-year quarter.“We had a very productive second quarter despite the COVID-19 pandemic. While we placed a brief pause on the recruitment of new patients in April, we have since lifted that pause and our operations have experienced minimal disruption to date”, said Hugh S. Griffith, NuCana’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer. “We are driving recruitment in the ongoing global Phase III study of Acelarin plus cisplatin in patients with biliary tract cancer. We are also making good progress in the Phase Ib combination and Phase I monotherapy studies of NUC-3373 as well as the Phase I study of NUC-7738.”Mr. Griffith continued: “We are also excited to have three posters accepted for presentation at the ESMO Virtual Congress 2020 to be held September 19-21, 2020. We look forward to presenting additional interim clinical data from the ongoing Phase Ib study of NUC-3373 in combination with other agents typically combined with 5-FU in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (NuTide:302). Additionally, we will present the first-ever clinical data from the ongoing Phase I study of NUC-7738 in patients with advanced solid tumors (NuTide:701). Finally, we will present a poster related to the ongoing NuTide:121 study of Acelarin plus cisplatin in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer.”The poster titles are as follows: * Poster 464P - Pharmacokinetic analysis of NUC-3373 with and without leucovorin in patients with previously treated metastatic colorectal cancer (NuTide:302 study) * Poster 600TiP - A first-in-human study of, NUC-7738, a 3'-dA phosphoramidate, in patients with advanced solid tumors (NuTide:701) * Poster 80TiP - Global Phase 3 study of NUC-1031 plus cisplatin vs gemcitabine plus cisplatin for first-line treatment of patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (NuTide:121)Mr. Griffith said: “We were also pleased to have presented data at the American Association for Cancer Research in June that suggested an additional immunomodulatory mode of action for Acelarin and NUC-3373. These data showed our ProTides’ potential to alter tumor biology and enhance the activity of immune checkpoint inhibitors. They also revealed new and exciting modes of action and help explain why our ProTides appear to be such potent anti-cancer agents.”Mr. Griffith concluded: “As we continue to advance our novel ProTide pipeline, we remain fortunate to be in a strong financial position with our cash runway still expected to extend at least into the fourth quarter of 2021. We remain focused on advancing our novel ProTide pipeline to develop more effective and safer medicines for patients with cancer.”Anticipated 2020 Milestones * Acelarin is a ProTide transformation of gemcitabine. In 2020, NuCana expects to: * Drive enrollment in the Phase III study of Acelarin combined with cisplatin as a first-line treatment for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer. * NUC-3373 is a ProTide transformation of the active anti-cancer metabolite of 5-FU. In 2020, NuCana expects to: * Report data from the ongoing Phase Ib study (NuTide:302) of NUC-3373 in patients with advanced colorectal cancer and establish the recommended Phase II dose of NUC-3373 in combination with other agents with which 5-FU is typically combined, such as leucovorin, oxaliplatin and irinotecan. * Contingent on regulatory guidance and other factors, initiate a Phase II/III study of NUC-3373 in combination with other agents for patients with colorectal cancer. * Report data from the ongoing Phase I study (NuTide:301) of NUC-3373 in patients with advanced solid tumors. * NUC-7738 is a ProTide transformation of a novel nucleoside analog, 3’-deoxyadenosine. In 2020, NuCana expects to: * Report data from the Phase I study (NuTide:701) of NUC-7738 in patients with advanced solid tumors.About NuCana plcNuCana is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on significantly improving treatment outcomes for cancer patients by applying our ProTide technology to transform some of the most widely prescribed chemotherapy agents, nucleoside analogs, into more effective and safer medicines. While these conventional agents remain part of the standard of care for the treatment of many solid and hematological tumors, their efficacy is limited by cancer cell resistance mechanisms and they are often poorly tolerated. Utilizing our proprietary technology, we are developing new medicines, ProTides, designed to overcome key cancer resistance mechanisms and generate much higher concentrations of anti-cancer metabolites in cancer cells. NuCana’s robust pipeline includes three ProTides in clinical development. Acelarin and NUC-3373, are new chemical entities derived from the nucleoside analogs gemcitabine and 5-fluorouracil, respectively, two widely used chemotherapy agents. Acelarin is currently being evaluated in four clinical studies, including a Phase III study for patients with biliary tract cancer, a Phase Ib study for patients with biliary tract cancer, a Phase II study for patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer and a Phase III study for patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer for which enrollment has been suspended. NUC-3373 is currently in a Phase I study for the potential treatment of a wide range of advanced solid tumors and a Phase Ib study for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Our third ProTide, NUC-7738, is a transformation of a novel nucleoside analog (3’-deoxyadenosine) and is in a Phase I study for patients with advanced solid tumors.Forward-Looking StatementsThis press release may contain “forward‐looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on the beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management of NuCana plc (the “Company”).

Oppenheimer: These 3 “Strong Buy” Stocks Have Over 50% Upside Potential
- Despite COVID-19’s devastating impact on the economy, Oppenheimer’s Chief Investment Strategist John Stoltzfus remains overweight on U.S. equities, and is more bullish on cyclical sectors versus defensive sectors. As for the legitimate concerns about the virus’ re-emergence, Stolzfus argues investors should “consider the reopening setbacks as just that and not something that is permanent.” "In the past week along with legitimate concerns about the recent resurgences of Covid-19 stateside and abroad there was also a resurgence of the “life will never be the same” kind of worry creeping into the theme du jour. We don’t attribute much value to the latter worry as collaborative efforts by scientists across the globe continue at record pace to pursue vaccines to stem the spread of the virus as well as drugs of greater efficacy to treat those who have fallen ill to it," Stoltzfus noted.Applying Stolzfus’ take to its recommendations, Oppenheimer is pounding the table on three stocks in particular. Noting that all three have solid long-term growth prospects, the firm’s analysts believe each has at least 50% upside potential. After running the tickers through TipRanks’ database, it’s clear the rest of the Street is in agreement, with each earning a “Strong Buy” consensus rating. NuCana PLC (NCNA)Using its ProTide technology, NuCana is working on transforming some of the most widely prescribed chemotherapy agents and nucleoside analogs into more effective and safer medicines. Given its potential to address the key limitations of other therapies, Oppenheimer has high hopes for this healthcare name.Representing the firm, 5-star analyst Leland Gershell points out that nucleoside analogs are commonly used treatments for viral infections and many cancers, but “cellular resistance mechanisms that impede drug entry and activation, as well as enhance breakdown and toxicity, hamper the fuller realization of their therapeutic potential.” NCNA’s technology, on the other hand, uses a prodrug strategy exemplified by Gilead’s HIV and HCV programs to address these issues.NCNA’s lead asset, Acelarin, is in Phase 3 development for front-line biliary tract cancer after the therapy combined with cisplatin demonstrated a superior clinical efficacy signal compared to gemcitabine, the current standard-of-care. “These combinations are being compared head-to-head in a recently initiated Phase 3 in front-line disease, and interim efficacy analyses expected 2022-23 could enable this orphan indication's first approval,” Gershell commented. "We assign a 50% probability of success for Acelarinin biliary tract cancer, assume 35% peak penetration of the target ~18K patient annual incidence, with peak 2028 sales of ~$319M."Adding to the good news, investors could get an update on NUC-3373, NuCana’s second product in clinical development, in the second half of 2020. NUC-3373 is an optimized active metabolite of 5- fluorouracil which is moving towards a registrational Phase 2/3 trial in early-line colorectal cancerLooking at the available data, compared to 5-FU, NUC-3373 was able to generate significantly more anti-cancer activity, required a lower infusion time and had a better tolerability profile. On top of this, a Phase 1b multiple combination therapy trial in advanced colorectal cancer showed the candidate might benefit patients that are refractory to 5-FU, a claim Gershell believes could be validated by the 2H20 results. The implication? Gershell stated, “With 5-FU a standard treatment component for a wide range of cancers, NUC-3373's key advantages position it to become the preferred alternative among the 500,000 U.S. individuals who receive 5-FU annually. Beyond colorectal cancer, NCNA has indicated interest in exploring NUC-3373 in other malignancies treated with 5- FU (e.g., gastric, esophageal cancer).”To this end, Gershell rates NCNA an Outperform (i.e. Buy) along with a $20 price target. Shares could appreciate by 295%, should the analyst’s thesis play out in the coming months. (To watch Gershell’s track record, click here) It’s not often that the analysts all agree on a stock, so when it does happen, take note. NCNA’s Strong Buy consensus rating is based on a unanimous 4 Buys. The stock’s $17 average price target suggests a 236% upside from the current share price of $5.08. (See NCNA stock analysis on TipRanks)Milestone Pharmaceuticals (MIST)Hoping to address the unmet needs of patients, Milestone Pharmaceuticals develops therapies for the acute treatment of arrhythmias and other cardiac conditions. Even though the company experienced a setback related to one of its therapies in March, Oppenheimer believes it is back on track.5-star analyst Leland Gershell, who also covers NCNA, acknowledges that there was some uncertainty following NODE-301's primary endpoint miss in March. However, he argues “MIST has emerged from constructive FDA discussions on track to complete etripamil's development in paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) without the need to run a new trial, a solid positive to expectations.”Although NODE-301 wasn’t able to meet the original primary endpoint of time to conversion (TTC), statistical analysis demonstrated that the therapy showed efficacy earlier on when evaluated over shorter periods. Therefore, the FDA agreed to a new statistical analysis plan that defines the primary endpoint as TTC at 30 minutes, so NODE-301 was technically successful. What does this change mean for MIST? Gershell noted, “NODE-301's original five-hour primary analysis period provided time for a sufficient number of placebo subjects to experience spontaneous resolutions, precluding the ability to show a difference. The use of a 30-minute window as the primary assessment retains etripamil nasal spray's value proposition to avoid/reduce emergency department visits, and bodes well for RAPID success.”Originally, the RAPID study (formerly NODE-301B) was set to include 170 participants who had been randomized into the double-blind, event-driven trial but had not experienced an SVT event upon reaching the target event number. Now, the trial will continue until 180 total events have been witnessed, and MIST will re-open enrollment in 2H20 with 1:1 randomization. With top-line data slated for release in late 2021/early 2022, the data readout could reflect a major catalyst.When it comes to its cash position, MIST boasted $102 million as of March 31, with the $25 million private placement by lead shareholder RTW supporting its operations into Q2 2022. This capital was provided in exchange for about 6.66 million pre-funded stock warrants. According to Gershell, this means MIST should have enough funding to reach key catalysts.All of the above makes it clear why Gershell is now standing with the bulls. In addition to upgrading the rating to Outperform, he put an $18 price target on the stock. This brings the upside potential to 117%.Judging by the consensus breakdown, other analysts also like what they’re seeing. 3 Buys and a single Hold add up to a Strong Buy consensus rating. Based on the $13.25 average price target, the upside potential lands at 59%. (See MIST stock analysis on TipRanks)InterDigital (IDCC)Counting tech industry titans like Apple, Samsung, LG and Huawei as customers, InterDigital is one of the top R&D companies in the world. With it boasting 32,000 patents, applications in wireless and video technologies and a broad international footprint, Oppenheimer thinks now is the time to get on board.Analyst Ian Zaffino tells clients that IDCC’s product portfolio gives it “significant earnings power.” Expounding on this, he stated, “Its patents are integrated into the major wireless standards and comprise ~6% of all 5G patents, including ones that cover signal power control... Roughly 93% of revenues come from fixed-fee payments, which create a predictable and recurring revenue stream.”Additionally, the company has a history of IP enforcement. Speaking to its efforts on this front, IDCC signed agreements with Samsung in 2014, Apple in 2016 and LG Electronics in 2017. It should be noted that the tech name recently renewed its license with Huawei, which could open the door for licensing deals with other handset makers, in Zaffino’s opinion.Currently, there are five Chinese manufacturers, including Oppo, Xiaomi, Vivo, Lenovo and TCL, as well as a group of smaller players that use IDCC’s technology without a license. “Over the next several years, we believe the company can ink deals with each one. If we assume each large manufacturer represents ~$30 million-$40 million of annual revenues, IDCC has the potential to generate revenues of ~$500 million and EPS of ~$6,” Zaffino explained.Representing another positive, IDCC recently acquired Technicolor, a move that could pay off big time. According to Zaffino, revenues here would most likely come from “major television manufacturers, including Samsung and LG, who already have relationships with IDCC on the wireless side.” The company also has an opportunity in the IoT space.Everything that IDCC has going for it prompted Zaffino to rate the stock an Outperform (i.e. Buy). The cherry on top? His $90 price target implies a 53% upside from current levels.

3 “Strong Buy” Healthcare Stocks That Could Double in the Next Year
- Out on Wall Street, stocks were able to pull out a major win. Despite being a more volatile week of trading, the three major U.S. stock indexes were each able to notch a more than 3% weekly-gain, with the Dow Jones exhibiting its best weekly performance since April 9. The surge came as investors applauded progress related to a COVID-19 vaccine and the reopening of the U.S. economy. Against this backdrop, investor focus has locked in on one area of the market in particular: the healthcare sector. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the space has held up strong, broadly outperforming the rest of the market. Not to mention return-minded investors tend to flock to these names thanks to the possibility of sky-high rewards. What’s the secret to their huge return potential? The nature of the industry itself. Many healthcare companies only rely on a few key indicators such as study results or regulatory approvals to determine if there’s a clear path forward, and thus, a single piece of good news can launch it on an upward trajectory. However, the opposite also holds true, so these tickers are notoriously risky. Understanding the volatile nature of the industry, we used TipRanks’ database to pinpoint compelling plays within the healthcare space. The platform helped us track down three that have received overwhelmingly bullish support from analysts, enough to earn a “Strong Buy” consensus rating. The cherry on top? Each could double in the twelve months ahead. NuCana PLC (NCNA) Using its ProTide technology to turn some of the most widely prescribed chemotherapy agents, nucleoside analogs, into more effective and safer medicines, NuCana hopes to improve treatment outcomes for cancer patients. With the company gearing up for a jam-packed year of potential catalysts, several members of the Street believe that now is the time to snap up shares. At the beginning of May, NCNA announced that it had restarted enrollment for its Phase 3 NuTide:121 trial, which is examining Acelarin and cisplatin in front-line biliary tract cancer (BTC) patients. Weighing in on the good news for H.C. Wainwright is five-star analyst Robert Burns. He reminds clients that the initial data from the Phase 1 ABC-08 front-line locally advanced or metastatic BTC trial, which was presented at ASCO 2019, demonstrated that within the intent-to-treat (ITT) population, the therapy produced a 50% unconfirmed objective response rate (ORR) and 7% complete response (CR) rate. “We believe this compares favorably to results that Valle and colleagues presented in their 2010 New England Journal of Medicine paper examining gemcitabine plus cisplatin (n=204) in a front-line BTC Phase 3 trial,” Burns commented. As a result, he thinks data from the trial could fuel significant upside. If that wasn’t enough, a few weeks later, NCNA revealed that enrollment for the Phase 1 and Phase 1b trials of its NUC-3373 candidate in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and in advanced solid tumors, respectively, were resumed. Enrollment for the Phase 1 NuTide:701 trial evaluating NUC-7738 in patients with advanced solid tumors also kicked off again. Early data from these trials is slated for release later this year. Burns points out that there are several other key catalysts on the horizon including the readout of data from the Phase 1b ABC-08 trial of Aclearin and cisplatin in first-line BTC, an update regarding the enrollment status for the Phase 3 trial of Acelarin and gemcitabine in first-line BTC as well as the initiation of a Phase 2/3 trial of NUC-3373 in conjunction with other agents in mCRC. Based on all of the above, Burns stayed with the bulls. Along with a Buy rating, the $16 price target remains unchanged. Should this target be met, a twelve-month gain of 173% could be in store. (To watch Burns’ track record, click here) Do other analysts agree with Burns? As it turns out, they do. With 100% Street support, or 3 Buy ratings to be exact, the message is clear: NCNA is a Strong Buy. At $16, the average price target matches Burns’. (See NuCana stock analysis on TipRanks) Celyad (CYAD) Moving right along, we come across Celyad, which is developing innovative CAR-T NK cell-based immunotherapies that could potentially treat cancer. As the second half of 2020 will feature major catalysts, it’s no wonder the analyst community is excited about this name. In the near-term, Celyad will present updated data from the Phase I alloSHRINK study of CYAD-101, its therapy designed as a treatment for mCRC, at the virtual ASCO conference on May 29 through 31. Using non-gene editing technology, the therapy has already shown anti-tumor activity in two out of twelve patients with a partial response and five patients with stable disease with a minimum of three months of duration. Representing H.C. Wainwright, five-star analyst Edward White is optimistic that the outcome will be favorable. He explained, “To date, CYAD-101 alloSHRINK has not demonstrated clinical evidence of GvHD or dose limiting toxicities.” Looking forward, CYAD will read out preliminary data from the Phase 1 THINK trial involving its candidate, CYAD-01, a CAR-T that uses natural killer cell specificity to target T-cells against a broad range of tumors, without preconditioning in patients with r/r AML and MDS, and the DEPLETHINK trial utilizing preconditioning with Cy/Flu. Both of these trials use the OptimAb manufacturing process, but White points out that the company will decide which protocol to proceed with based on the data. Some investors expressed concern after COVID-19 forced the company to push back the previously expected timing for the THINK and DEPLETHINK trial readouts, but White was unphased by the delay. “THINK data presented at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting 2019 showed that 53% (8/15) of evaluable patients demonstrated anti-leukemic activity with bone marrow blasts decrease, including five patients with objective responses and one patient with stable disease (SD) for at least three months,” he stated. The analyst added, “No objective responses had been shown at the time of presentation, but safety data demonstrated that CYAD-01 manufactured with OptimAb was well tolerated following preconditioning chemotherapy.” With a decision on which protocol CYAD will pursue expected by year end 2020, the deal is sealed for White. In addition to reiterating his Buy recommendation, he kept the $37 price target as is. This target conveys his confidence in CYAD’s ability to soar 339% in the next year. (To watch White’s track record, click here) All in all, other analysts echo White’s sentiment. 4 Buys and no Holds or Sells add up to a Strong Buy consensus rating. Based on the $27.33 average price target, the upside potential comes in at 224%. (See Celyad stock analysis on TipRanks) IDEAYA Biosciences Inc. (IDYA) Last but not least we have IDEAYA, which is developing targeted oncology drugs including the PKC inhibitor, IDE196, for the treatment of metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM) as well as a portfolio of synthetic lethality drug candidates. On the heels of the acceptance of four abstracts for presentation at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Virtual Annual Meeting II, which will be held on June 22-24, many Wall Street analysts have been impressed. Among the bulls is Oppenheimer’s Kevin DeGeeter. He tells investors that he sees two abstracts as being especially promising as both have the potential “to inform clinical studies to start within the next twelve months.” Specifically looking at abstract 1956, “In vitro and in vivo characterization of novel MAT2A allosteric inhibitors”, the five-star analyst believes it is a “placeholder and most likely potential source of upside for IDYA shares.” DeGeeter added, “Specifically, we are cautiously optimistic abstract 1956 may more fully describe the cellular anti-proliferation activity and PK profile from a scaffold of IDYA's lead synthetic lethality program, a small molecule allosteric inhibitor of MAT2A... If management opts to disclose cellular anti-proliferation activity or cellular SAM modulation data. In the absence of efficacy data, we would view clean liver tox profile as a material finding.” In addition, DeGeeter pointed out, “Our investment thesis for shares of IDYA is based in large measure on the potential of the company’s broad pipeline of synthetic lethality programs.” As a result, he argues that the selection of a development candidate for lead synthetic lethality program, MAT2A, which is slated for Q2 2020, and the IND filing expected in Q4 2020, represent key catalysts. He also thinks AACR is a “logical” timeframe to confirm selection. It should be noted previous studies have demonstrated that MAT2A regulates PMRT5 expression. To top it all off, DeGeeter believes abstract 5337 will provide more clarity regarding the magnitude of a potential synergy of IDE196 with a MEK inhibitor. The results could help IDYA select patients for a basket study of IDE196. To this end, DeGeeter left an Outperform rating and $17 price target on the stock. Given this target, shares could skyrocket 143% in the next twelve months. (To watch DeGeeter’s track record, click here) Turning now to the rest of the Street, other analysts also like what they’re seeing. 3 Buys and no Holds or Sells have been assigned in the last three months, making the consensus rating a Strong Buy. While less aggressive than DeGeeter’s, the $15 average price target still leaves room for 115% upside potential. (See IDEAYA stock analysis on TipRanks)

Actually, I decided to do that back in mid-December. It’s just that I spent most of the time since then in a frustrated state of not being able to even install the damn thing. With PC after PC, nothing would work. And so I created and recreated the install media from multiple sources, trying and trying again. Eventually what I came to understand was that virtually all of my PCs---including my old NUC, which I wanted to use as a daily driver of sorts here in my home office---were simply too modern to install Windows 7, at least easily.

But then I found something unexpected: Neither of the two Chromebooks I tested with the dock would work. Yes, the dock would charge the Chromebooks. But they couldn’t access any of the peripherals connected to the dock.
