Eledon Pharmaceuticals Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Recent Business Highlights
Eledon Pharmaceuticals cleared a key regulatory hurdle with a successful FDA End-of-Phase 2 meeting, positioning tegoprubart to initiate a global Phase 3 kidney transplant trial in late 2026.
New data from the BESTOW trial showed tegoprubart maintained statistically significant kidney function superiority over tacrolimus at 18 months, while a separate study demonstrated 100% insulin independence in islet cell transplant patients.
Financially, the company holds $88.8 million in cash and investments, sufficient to fund operations into the second quarter of 2027, with a Q2 net loss of $31.6 million driven largely by non-cash warrant valuation changes.
