FibroGen Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FGEN#NASDAQ">FGEN</a>) saw its share price plummet after the release of topline results from two late-stage trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of pamrevlumab in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/07/g40049878/fibrogen-announces-topline-results-from-two-late-stage-pamrevlumab-pancreatic-cancer-studies-and-p" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">pancreatic cancer patients</a>.
What Happened: The pamrevlumab arm of the study did not meet the primary endpoint of overall survival.
Based upon the results of the late-stage pamrevlumab trials in pancreatic cancer, the company plans to implement an immediate and significant cost reduction plan in the U.S.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/04/38070160/fibrogen-unveils-early-data-from-prostate-cancer-candidate-analyst-advocates-furthe" rel="noreferrer noopener">FibroGen Unveils Early Data From Prostate Cancer Candidate, Analyst Advocates Further Exploration In The Landscape</a>.
And the pamrevlumab development program will be terminated. 
As a result of the cost reduction plan, headcount in the U.S. will be reduced by approximately 75%.
Median overall survival of 17.3 months was observed in the pamrevlumab combined with gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel or FOLFIRINOX arm compared to the median overall survival of 17.9 months in the control arm of placebo combined with gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel or FOLFIRINOX (HR: 1.08)
The preliminary safety analyses across both studies indicate that the safety profile of pamrevlumab combined with gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel or FOLFIRINOX was generally well tolerated, with an acceptable safety profile.
No clinically meaningful differences in treatment-emergent adverse events were seen between the treatment arms.
William Blair writes, &#8220;We believe investors had exceedingly low expectations for pamrevlumab in pancreatic cancer following several clinical setbacks in both idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/08/34109907/three-in-a-row-fibrogens-investigational-drug-flunks-in-another-study-for-rare-dise" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Duchenne muscular dystrophy</a>.&#8221;
The analyst notes that investor interest in FibroGen has surged following recent mergers and acquisitions in the antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) sector and the release of competitive topline data.
The primary focus is on FG-3246, an ADC targeting CD46. The company plans to start a Phase 2/3 monotherapy trial later this year, with the Phase 3 portion potentially beginning in the first half of 2027. Notably, FG-3246 is the only clinical pipeline candidate with a possible registrational-enabling study in the near future.
William Blair reiterates <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FGEN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">the Market Perform rating</a>.
Price Action: FGEN stock is down 47.9% at 54 cents at last check Wednesday.

FibroGen also announced a new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/06/g39145782/fibrogen-announces-clinical-trial-supply-agreement-with-regeneron-pharmaceuticals-to-evaluate-fibr" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">clinical trial supply agreement with Regeneron</a>.
The Details: FibroGen announced that the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/06/g39145655/fibrogen-announces-fda-clearance-of-investigational-new-drug-application-for-fg-3165-a-galectin-9-" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">FDA cleared its IND of FG-3165</a>, allowing the company to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial.
FG-3165 is a galectin-9 targeted monoclonal antibody under development for treatment of solid tumors characterized by high Gal9 levels of expression. Phase 1 trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of FG-3165 in patients with select solid tumors are expected to begin enrollment in the second half of 2024.&nbsp;
"To date, FG-3165 has demonstrated anti-tumor activity with improved survival in combination with other immune modulatory therapies in mouse cancer models and has shown excellent tolerability in nonclinical safety studies," said&nbsp;Thane Wettig, CEO of FibroGen.
FibroGen also announced&nbsp;a clinical trial supply agreement with Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/REGN#NASDAQ">REGN</a>) to evaluate FibroGen's immuno-oncology assets FG-3165 and FG-3175 with Reneneron's anti-PD-1 therapy LIBTAYO&nbsp;(cemiplimab) in patients with solid tumors.
FibroGen will be the sponsor of each Phase 1 monotherapy and combination trial. Regeneron will provide drug supply to FibroGen. Each company will retain all rights to their respective compounds.
"We believe that the mechanisms of action for both FG-3165 (anti-Gal9) and FG-3175 (anti-CCR8) have the potential to be synergistic with cemiplimab, providing the possibility for an improvement in clinical outcomes for patients. We look forward to building a collaborative relationship with Regeneron," said&nbsp;Deyaa Adib, chief medical officer of FibroGen.

Chip stocks are up today and investors wondering why will find all of the news ready to go on Wednesday!



The increase in chip stocks starts with <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/07/31/amd-nvidia-jump-as-chip-stocks-rally-from-earnings-geopolitics-boost.html">strong earnings reports</a> in the sector. That includes Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amd-stock-quote/">AMD</a>) beating out Wall Street&rsquo;s expectations in its latest quarter.



Adding to that are strong results from Samsung. This is one of the largest memory chip makers in the business and its products are used in many artificial intelligence (<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ai-stock-quote/">AI</a>) projects and platforms.



On top of that, geopolitical factors are also sending chip stocks up today. The U.S. is reportedly considering additional bans on sales of semiconductor components to China. However, that ban wouldn&rsquo;t affect allies, such as Japan, the Netherlands and South Korea. This is a switch from prior reports that said these allies may be affected.



With all of this news comes a rally for chip stocks today. Let&rsquo;s dig into that below!

FibroGen&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/fgen-stock-quote/">FGEN</a>) layoffs are in the news Wednesday after the biopharmaceutical company announced <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/press-release/fibrogen-announces-topline-results-two-late-stage-pamrevlumab-pancreatic-cancer">plans to cut jobs</a> after failed clinical trials.



FibroGen&nbsp;says that it is going into a cost-saving mode that will result in layoffs for 75% of its U.S. employees. This comes as it ends its pamrevlumab development program due to poor results.



Here&rsquo;s what it said about this in a press release.




&ldquo;The pamrevlumab development program will be terminated and the Company plans to expeditiously wind down any remaining pamrevlumab obligations. As a result of the cost reduction plan, headcount in the U.S. will be reduced by approximately 75%.&rdquo;




<h2>FibroGen Layoffs Reasons</h2>



FibroGen&nbsp;posted results from <a href="https://investorplace.com/2024/07/why-is-fibrogen-fgen-stock-down-44-today/">two clinical trials</a> of pamrevlumab. One of these was a Phase 2/3 trial and the other was a Phase 3 trial. In both cases, the trials failed to meet their primary endpoints of overall survival.



With this news comes heavy trading of FGEN stock as traders sell their shares. That has more than 5.8 million units on the move as of this writing. To put that number in perspective, the daily average trading volume for FibroGen shares is roughly 2.8 million.



FGEN stock is down 50.6% as of Wednesday morning. The stock is currently down 36.7% since the start of the year.
