CytomX Therapeutics Cuts Workforce, Extend Cash Runway Into 2025 - CytomX Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CTMX)

CytomX Therapeutics Inc CTMX is restructuring its business to prioritize internal investments in its emerging pre-clinical and early clinical pipeline.
The company will cut 40% of its workforce. The changes are expected to extend the company's cash runway into 2025.
CytomX ended the March quarter with cash and equivalents of $263 million.
The company said that based on the results of a three-arm Phase 2 study of Praluzatamab ravtansine in breast cancer, it would deprioritize internal investment in this program and seek a partnership to advance the asset further.
