Barinthus Biotherapeutics plc (NASDAQ: BRNS) noticed its stock take on new strength early Thursday. The Germantown, Md.-based company today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided an overview of the Company’s corporate developments. Barinthus Bio is an immunology and inflammation company focused on developing therapies that promote immune tolerance with curative potential.
"As we complete the first quarter of 2026, our focus remains on advancing the proposed combination with Clywedog, which we believe represents a transformative opportunity for Barinthus Bio by creating a compelling and differentiated pipeline focused on autoimmune and metabolic diseases,” said CEO Bill Enright.
"Throughout the first quarter, we continued to advance the activities necessary to complete the transaction, while also preparing for a seamless integration following closing. At the same time, our major focus is to progress the ongoing clinical development of our core asset, VTP-1000, in celiac disease. With encouraging single ascending dose data in hand from the Phase I AVALON trial and multiple ascending dose data expected in the second half of 2026, we see a clear opportunity for VTP-1000 to deliver near-term clinical milestones and to contribute to long-term shareholder value for the combined company.”
BRNS shares gained four cents, or 6.5%, to 63.9 cents.
