Evommune Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Provides Business Highlights
‑ Phase 2b top-line data from EVO756 in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and atopic dermatitis (AD) on track for June 2026 and 3Q26, respectively, with enrollment complete in both trials
‑ Phase 2b clinical trial evaluating a subcutaneous formulation of EVO301 in AD planned, following positive proof-of-concept (POC) data reported in February 2026
‑ Plans to initiate a Phase 2b dose-ranging clinical trial of EVO756 in migraine prophylaxis in mid-2026
PALO ALTO, Calif. & NEW YORK, May 7, 2026 – Evommune, Inc. (NYSE: EVMN) (“Evommune” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing innovative therapies that target key drivers of chronic inflammatory diseases, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a business update.
“We continue to make meaningful progress across our broad chronic inflammation targeted pipeline and remain on track to deliver top-line Phase 2b data for EVO756 in CSU in June and in AD in the third quarter of 2026. We also expect to initiate a Phase 2b clinical trial in a third indication, migraine prophylaxis, in mid-2026, where we believe the biology and opportunity are both very compelling. For EVO301, we recently reported positive Phase 2a proof-of-concept data in AD and look forward to presenting more data from that trial at an upcoming medical meeting,” said Luis Peña, President and Chief Executive Officer at Evommune. “With a strong cash position expected to support our operations through 2028, we believe we are well positioned to execute on key milestones and further advance our pipeline of therapies addressing inflammatory diseases where the biology is strong, the patient need is clear, and the path to development is well defined.”
Business Highlights, Recent Developments and Upcoming Milestones
EVO756 – Oral MRGPRX2 Antagonist Program
Potential first and best-in-class, potent and highly selective small molecule antagonist of Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2), a receptor predominantly found on both mast cells and peripheral sensory neurons. This dual expression allows MRGPRX2 to uniquely modulate the neurogenic inflammation feedback loop between nerves and immune cells that drive chronic inflammation.
EVO301 – Injectable IL-18 Binding Protein Fusion Protein
Long-acting fusion protein consisting of an IL-18 binding protein and an anti-serum albumin Fab-associated domain with potential for more effective distribution to inflamed tissues than traditional monoclonal antibodies.
“We are excited to present a robust set of preclinical and translational findings at upcoming scientific conferences,” said Dr. Jeegar Patel, Chief Scientific Officer at Evommune. “We continue to build a compelling body of evidence supporting shared disease biology across CIndU and CSU, while further elucidating the role and expression of the MRGPRX2 receptor in AD. Importantly, our migraine-focused research expands this understanding into the neuroinflammatory setting, demonstrating MRGPRX2’s involvement in both meningeal mast cells and trigeminal neurons. Collectively, these findings reinforce our conviction in MRGPRX2 as a highly differentiated and potentially broad therapeutic target, continuing to build momentum as we look ahead to upcoming top-line Phase 2b data in CSU next month.”

All statements in this press release other than statements of historical facts are “forward-looking statements.” These statements may be identified by words such as “aims,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “goal,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “possible,” “potential,” “seeks,” “will” and variations of these words or similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the potential therapeutic benefit of EVO756 and EVO301, the design, objectives, initiation, timing, progress and results of current and future preclinical studies and clinical trials of the Company’s product candidates, including the ongoing Phase 2 clinical trials for EVO756 and EVO301; anticipated cash runway through 2028; and continued advancement of the Company’s portfolio. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company’s expectations and assumptions as of the date of this press release. Each of these forward-looking statements involves risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s clinical development programs, future results or performance to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many factors may cause differences between current expectations and actual results, including: the Company’s limited operating history and historical losses; the potential that success in preclinical testing and earlier clinical trials does not ensure that later clinical trials will generate the same results or otherwise provide adequate data to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of a product candidate; the Company’s ability to obtain regulatory approval of and successfully commercialize its product candidates; the impacts of macroeconomic conditions, including heightened inflation and uncertain credit and financial markets, on the Company’s business, clinical trials and financial position; unexpected safety or efficacy data observed during preclinical studies or clinical trials; clinical trial site activation or enrollment rates that are lower than expected; the Company’s ability to realize the benefits of its collaborations and license agreements; changes in expected or existing competition; changes in the regulatory environment; the Company’s ability to obtain, maintain and protect its intellectual property; and unexpected litigation or other disputes. Other factors that may cause the Company’s actual results to differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements in this press release are identified under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 5, 2026, and in other filings that the Company makes and will make with the SEC in the future.
