Beyondspring Inc Stock Price, News & Analysis

BeyondSpring (Nasdaq: BYSI) recently presented data from multiple conferences, showcasing the effectiveness of its lead drug, plinabulin, in preventing docetaxel-induced neutropenia (DIN) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and breast cancer patients. Analyses revealed that plinabulin significantly reduced the mean duration of severe neutropenia by more than one day compared to standard treatment. The drug demonstrated a favorable safety profile, maintaining quality of life with minimal side effects. This positions plinabulin as a promising alternative for managing DIN in chemotherapy.

BeyondSpring Inc. (Nasdaq: BYSI) received notification from Nasdaq on November 18, 2022, indicating non-compliance with the minimum closing bid price of $1.00 per share, effective after 30 consecutive days below this threshold. The notification does not immediately affect the trading of its shares, which will continue on Nasdaq. BeyondSpring has until May 17, 2023, to restore compliance. The company continues to operate normally and is exploring options to meet the listing requirements.

BeyondSpring announced significant data on plinabulin from the ESMO Congress 2022. This data demonstrates plinabulin's ability to rapidly (within 24 hours) mitigate chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression by protecting granulocyte-monocyte progenitor (GMP) stem cells. In the Phase 2/3 PROTECTIVE-1 and PROTECTIVE-2 trials, plinabulin showed a statistically significant increase in absolute neutrophil counts compared to control (p<0.0001). This positions plinabulin as a novel asset in preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, enhancing treatment safety for cancer patients.

BeyondSpring (NASDAQ: BYSI) announced new data from a study presented at the 19th International Myeloma Society Annual Meeting. The study evaluated the combination of plinabulin and pegfilgrastim in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Results showed that only 10% of patients experienced non-engagement-related febrile neutropenia, significantly lower than the historical rate of 60%. The study continues, aiming to evaluate neutropenia burden and overall patient outcomes.

BeyondSpring (NASDAQ: BYSI) announced three significant poster presentations at the ASCO Annual Meeting, highlighting crucial data on chemotherapy-induced neutropenia (CIN) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatments. The real-world analysis indicated that current G-CSF therapy for CIN leaves patients vulnerable in the first week post-chemotherapy. Furthermore, the DUBLIN-3 trial revealed that the combination of plinabulin/docetaxel extends median overall survival by 2.6 months compared to docetaxel alone in a specific NSCLC subgroup. This data emphasizes the potential of plinabulin in addressing critical cancer patient needs.

On April 28, 2022, BeyondSpring announced three poster presentations for its lead asset, plinabulin, at the upcoming ASCO Annual Meeting in June. Highlights include a study on granulocyte colony-stimulating factor use in breast cancer chemotherapy and new data from the DUBLIN-3 Phase 3 trial for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This includes quality of life analysis and subgroup results comparing plinabulin with docetaxel. Plinabulin is part of a broader strategy to enhance cancer treatment outcomes.
