Coherus Biosciences announced that it completed its acquisition of Surface Oncology, Inc., a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company.  Coherus’ pipeline now has a number of new clinical-stage assets, including:

  • Toripalimab: an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody under BLA review for treatment of advanced recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC);
  • CHS-006: a TIGIT-targeted antibody currently in a phase I / II study in combination with toripalimab in patients with advanced solid tumours;
  • Casdozokitug (SRF388 or casdozo): a first-in-class IL-27-targeted antibody in phase II clinical trials in lung cancer and liver cancer; and
  • CHS-114 (SRF114): an ADCC-enhanced CCR8-targeted antibody in a phase I / II study as a monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors.

On 2 August 2023, Coherus announced its Q2 2023 financial results, reporting that sales of its Cimerli® (ranibizumab), biosimilar to Genentech’s Lucentis®, had quadrupled to US$26.7M since the last quarter.
