Ventyx Biosciences (VTYX) announced Phase 2 trial results for VTX958, its TYK2 inhibitor for Crohn's disease. While the trial did not meet its primary endpoint of change in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI), likely due to high placebo response, it demonstrated significant endoscopic improvements.

The trial involved 109 subjects randomized across placebo and two VTX958 dosage groups (225mg and 300mg BID) for a 12-week induction period, followed by a 40-week maintenance phase. Notable results included significant reductions in SES-CD scores for both dosage groups compared to placebo, and improved clinical-biomarker response rates (43.2% for 300mg vs 14.3% for placebo). The company is analyzing full 52-week data to inform future development strategy and partnership opportunities.
