• Early PFS data showing favorable trend for 30mg onvansertib dose
• Well-tolerated safety profile with neutropenia as the most common treatment-emergent adverse event

Key highlights include the appointment of Dr. Roger Sidhu as Chief Medical Officer and positive data from a Phase 1b trial showing 40% objective response rate for onvansertib with paclitaxel in metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Financially, Cardiff reported $71.0 million in cash and investments as of June 30, 2025, with a projected runway into Q1 2027. Q2 operating expenses increased to $14.9 million, up from $12.7 million year-over-year, primarily due to clinical trial costs and personnel expenses.

He previously served as CMO and acting CEO at Treadwell Therapeutics and held key positions at Amgen, where he led Phase 3 trials for panitumumab. The company also announced a conference call scheduled for July 29, 2025, at 4:30 PM ET to share additional clinical data from its randomized Phase 2 CRDF-004 trial, which evaluates onvansertib plus standard of care for first-line RAS-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer treatment.

Cardiff Oncology announced positive Phase 1b clinical trial results for onvansertib combined with paclitaxel in treating metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC). The trial, presented at ASCO 2025, demonstrated a 40% objective response rate at the highest dose (18mg/m2) of onvansertib. The study, led by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, enrolled heavily pretreated patients with a median of 3 prior chemotherapy lines. Notable results included two confirmed and two unconfirmed partial responses, with three responses observed in patients previously exposed to paclitaxel. The drug combination showed a manageable safety profile, with myelosuppression as the most common side effect. The positive results validate preclinical data showing synergy between onvansertib and paclitaxel, suggesting potential for treating mTNBC, an aggressive breast cancer subtype with significant unmet medical needs.
