Recent press releases and 8-K filings for RCUS.
- Arcus Biosciences' highest priorities for 2026 include the rapid enrollment of its PEAK-1 Phase 3 study evaluating casdatifan in IO-experienced ccRCC patients and the initiation of a first-line Phase 3 study for casdatifan.
- The company plans at least three data presentations for casdatifan in 2026, including updated data from the Phase 1/1b ARC-20 study in February, updated data for casdatifan plus cabozantinib mid-year, and data from multiple ARC-20 cohorts in the second half of the year.
- Arcus expects its first development candidate for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, an oral MRGPRX2 antagonist, to enter clinical development in 2026.
- With approximately $1 billion of cash and investments, Arcus anticipates being able to fund its planned operations until at least the second half of 2028.
- Arcus Biosciences has discontinued its Phase 3 STAR-221 study, conducted in partnership with Gilead Sciences, Inc., due to futility based on an interim analysis of overall survival in upper gastrointestinal cancers.
- The company will now concentrate its R&D investment and resources on casdatifan, a potential best-in-class HIF-2a inhibitor, and its emerging small molecule inflammation and immunology (I&I) programs.
- Multiple data readouts for casdatifan are anticipated in 2026, alongside the expected entry of a small molecule targeting MRGPRX2 into the clinic in the same year as part of its I&I portfolio.
- Arcus expects to be able to fund its planned operations until at least the second half of 2028, supported by approximately $1 billion in cash and investments.
- Casdatifan, Arcus's HIF-2 inhibitor, is positioned as the biggest value driver, with 100% ownership and clinical data showing PFS over 12 months in late-line settings, significantly outperforming Merck's belzutifan (5.6 months).
- The company has three programs in Phase III, including casdatifan, an anti-TIGIT program, and a CD73 inhibitor.
- The anti-TIGIT program (STAR-221) in upper GI cancers, fully enrolled in June 2024, is expected to read out in 2026, with Phase II data indicating overall survival greater than two years compared to 12-13 months for standard of care.
- Arcus maintains a strong financial position with over $1 billion in cash, sufficient to fund initial Phase III readouts for all programs.
- A decision on the optimal casdatifan combination for a frontline Phase III study is anticipated in the second half of next year (2026), following ongoing "bake-off" studies.
- Arcus's lead asset, Casdatifan (CAS), a HIF-2 inhibitor, is positioned as a major value driver due to its 100% ownership and demonstrated superior clinical profile compared to Merck's Belzutifan, with a PFS of over 12 months versus 5.6 months in late-line settings.
- The company is advancing CAS into two Phase III studies for clear cell RCC, with the CAS+CABO combination study aiming to complete enrollment by the end of 2026 , and a decision on the best frontline combination for a Phase III study expected by the second half of 2026.
- Arcus's anti-TIGIT program, Domvanalimab, has its first Phase III study (STAR-221) in upper GI cancers, which was fully enrolled in June 2024 and is expected to read out in 2026. This program features an Fc silent configuration, believed to offer a better safety profile.
- The company also fully enrolled its Phase III study (PRISM1) for its CD73 inhibitor, Quemliclustat, in September 2025, ahead of schedule. Arcus maintains a strong financial position with over $1 billion in cash, covering initial Phase III readouts for all programs.
- Arcus Biosciences' primary focus is casdatifan, a HIF-2 inhibitor, which has shown promising early data compared to Belzutifan, with more data expected in 2026 to inform its Phase III strategy.
- The Phase III STAR-221 study for Domvanalimab (anti-TIGIT), which showed differentiated overall survival data in earlier studies, is anticipated to read out in 2026.
- The Phase III study for Quemli (CD73 inhibitor) was fully enrolled in September, with a readout expected based on the typical overall survival of the control arm.
- Arcus Biosciences has over $1 billion in capital to execute on its pipeline programs.
- Enrollment for the Volrustomig (bispecific) combo study was paused due to adverse events, with ongoing assessment of current patients.
- Casdatifan (HIF-2 inhibitor) is a primary focus, with significant data expected in 2026 to define its Phase 3 strategy in the second half of the year, showing superior data compared to belzutifan.
- The anti-TIGIT program (DAM) has its Phase 3 STAR-221 study (1,050 patients) expected to read out in 2026, having been fully enrolled in June 2024. Additionally, the STAR-121 study (1,000 patients) will be fully enrolled by the end of 2025.
- Arcus anticipates presenting more mature data for its casdatifan plus CABL combination next year, covering the full 44-patient dataset, which previously demonstrated a 40%+ response rate.
- The company reported having $1 billion+ to execute its programs, and its CD73 inhibitor (Quemly) Phase 3 study was fully enrolled in September.
- Enrollment for the Volroo combo was paused due to early AEs resembling CTLA-4 AEs, and the company is evaluating potential protocol amendments.
- Casdatifan, an HIF-2 inhibitor, is a primary strategic focus for 2026, with data showing superior efficacy compared to Belzutifan and plans for more data and a Phase III strategy definition next year.
- The company anticipates significant Phase III readouts for Domvanalimab (anti-TIGIT), including STAR-221 in 2026 for GI cancers, and full enrollment of STAR-121 for NSCLC by the end of 2025.
- The Phase III study for Quemli (CD73 inhibitor) fully enrolled in September 2025, with a potential readout timeline based on the standard overall survival for the comparator arm.
- Arcus Biosciences possesses over $1 billion in capital to advance its pipeline programs.

- The company concluded Q3 2025 with $841 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities, down from $992 million at December 31, 2024, and projects this capital will fund operations through initial pivotal readouts for its main programs.
- Casdatifan demonstrated 12.2 months median progression-free survival (mPFS) and an 18-month landmark PFS of 43% in a pooled analysis of 121 patients with late-line kidney cancer from the ARC-20 study, with further data expected in 2026. Additionally, domvanalimab plus zimberelimab and chemotherapy achieved a median overall survival (OS) of 26.7 months in first-line upper gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas.
- In October, Taiho exercised its option for an exclusive license to casdatifan in Japan and certain territories in Asia. Arcus also unveiled a portfolio of five programs targeting inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, with a small molecule targeting MRGPRX2 expected to enter the clinic in 2026.
