WATERTOWN, Mass., May 11, 2026--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENTA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to creating small molecule drugs for viral infections and immunological diseases, today reported financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2026. "Since the inception of our immunology portfolio targeting type 2 diseases, our team has worked diligently to advance highly selective inhibitors of KIT, STAT6 and MRGPRX2 designed to enable convenient oral dosing and best-in-class profiles," said Jay Luly, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Enanta. "This quarter, we achieved a key milestone with dosing initiation in our Phase 1 trial of EDP-978, an oral KIT inhibitor in development for chronic urticaria. Along with advancing EDP-978 into the clinic, we remain on track to file an IND for EPS-3903, our oral STAT6 inhibitor, and to nominate an MRGPRX2 development candidate, in the second half of 2026. In parallel, we are continuing to conduct enabling activities for a pivotal study of zelicapavir in adults at high risk of serious complications from RSV infection and look forward to providing an update on the development path later this quarter. With a strong balance sheet and ongoing royalty revenues, we are well-positioned to execute on our strategy and to deliver multiple value-driving milestones over the coming year."
