H.C. Wainwright 28th Annual Global Investment Conference summary
14 Sep, 2026Company and lead asset overview
Headquarters located in Del Mar, San Diego, with Olevaprubart (Oleva) as the lead program targeting OX40 for atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata.
Olevaprubart is a next-generation, receptor-directed monoclonal antibody, engineered for high differentiation and efficacy.
Differentiation and clinical rationale
Olevaprubart targets the OX40 receptor, is non-T cell depleting, and has a long half-life, enabling patient-friendly dosing intervals.
The antibody silences ADCC function, preserving T cells and reducing adverse events seen with prior OX40-targeting drugs.
Ongoing phase IIb adaptive study evaluates monthly and quarterly dosing, with potential for even wider intervals.
Safety and risk mitigation
No cases of Kaposi sarcoma observed in trials; study design includes careful patient selection and monitoring for HHV-8.
Investigator training and inclusion/exclusion criteria aim to minimize risk, with ongoing vigilance for safety signals.
