ZUG, Switzerland, May 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pharvaris (Nasdaq: PHVS), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel, oral bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists to help address unmet needs of those living with bradykinin-mediated diseases such as hereditary angioedema (HAE) and acquired angioedema due to C1 inhibitor deficiency (AAE-C1INH), today announced financial results for the first quarter ended in March 31, 2026, and provided a business update.

“In 2026, Pharvaris remains focused on execution across our late-stage programs, including reporting CHAPTER-3 data in the third quarter and enrolling in CREAATE, and on establishing our commercial infrastructure in preparation for the potential launch of deucrictibant IR,” said Berndt Modig, Chief Executive Officer of Pharvaris. “The growing published scientific evidence of deucrictibant’s potential as an end-to-end portfolio solution for bradykinin-mediated angioedema care supports our clinical, regulatory, and commercial strategies. Supported by the upsized and oversubscribed raise of approximately $132 million, our team is maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation that prioritizes the success of deucrictibant.”

Recent Business Updated
Development Pipeline

  • Topline data from CHAPTER-3 (NCT06669754) anticipated 3Q2026. CHAPTER-3 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study of orally administered deucrictibant extended-release (XR) tablet for the prophylaxis against angioedema attacks in adults and adolescents (12 years and older) with HAE. Approximately 81 participants were enrolled and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive deucrictibant XR (40 mg), which is the intended commercial formulation, or placebo, once daily for 24 weeks. Pharvaris anticipates announcing topline data from CHAPTER-3 in the third quarter of 2026.
  • Enrollment in CHAPTER-4 (NCT06679881) progressing as planned. CHAPTER-4 is a long-term, open-label extension study of orally administered deucrictibant XR for the prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks. The goal of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of deucrictibant XR in the prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks.
  • Submission of New Drug Application (NDA) of deucrictibant immediate release (IR) capsule for the on-demand treatment of HAE attacks remains on-track for 1H2026. Data from the pivotal, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study, RAPIDe-3, and the long-term extension study, RAPIDe-2, will serve as the basis for the NDA of deucrictibant IR, which is on-track for submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the first half of 2026.
  • Enrollment in CREAATE (NCT07266805) progressing as planned. CREAATE is a global, pivotal Phase 3 study evaluating orally administered deucrictibant for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment of AAE-C1INH attacks.
  • Recent data publications and presentations report evidence on the potential for combined use of bradykinin B2 receptor antagonism for both prophylactic and on-demand treatment of HAE attacks. Evidence supporting the use of deucrictibant IR as an on-demand treatment in the event of a breakthrough attack in combination with deucrictibant XR as a prophylactic treatment were recently presented at the CIIC Spring 2026 Conference. Results from the Phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled clinical studies CHAPTER-1 and RAPIDe-1 provided evidence of bradykinin B2 receptor antagonism as both prophylactic and on-demand treatment options, respectively, for those living with HAE, supporting further development of deucrictibant for both indications in Phase 3 studies, and were also recently published back-to-back in The Lancet Heamatology.

Corporate

  • Closing of $132 million underwritten offering extends cash runway. The proceeds from the offering of $132.3 million of shares will be used to fund research and development expenses for Pharvaris’ late-stage clinical programs, the expansion of a sales and marketing team in the U.S., and related commercialization expenses, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. Pharvaris remains diligent in its operational management and expects to have a cash runway into 2028.

About Deucrictibant
Deucrictibant is a novel, potent, orally bioavailable small-molecule bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist currently in clinical development. Deucrictibant is being investigated for its potential to prevent the occurrence of bradykinin-mediated angioedema attacks and to treat the manifestations of attacks if/when they occur by inhibiting bradykinin signaling through the bradykinin B2 receptor. Pharvaris is developing two formulations of deucrictibant for oral administration: an extended-release tablet to enable sustained absorption and efficacy as prophylactic treatment, and an immediate-release capsule to enable rapid onset of activity for on-demand treatment. Deucrictibant has been granted orphan drug designation for the treatment of bradykinin-mediated angioedema by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Commission, and Swissmedic.

About Pharvaris
Pharvaris is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel, oral bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists to help address unmet needs in bradykinin-mediated conditions, including all types of bradykinin-mediated angioedema. Pharvaris’ aspiration is to offer therapies with injectable-like efficacy™, a well-tolerated profile, and the convenience of oral administration to prevent and treat bradykinin-mediated angioedema attacks. By delivering on this aspiration, Pharvaris aims to provide a new standard of care in bradykinin-mediated angioedema. Pharvaris is preparing marketing authorization applications for deucrictibant immediate-release capsule as an on-demand treatment of HAE attacks, and a global pivotal Phase 3 study of deucrictibant extended-release tablet for the prevention of HAE attacks (CHAPTER-3) is ongoing with topline data anticipated in the third quarter of 2026. In addition, CREAATE is an ongoing Phase 3 study of deucrictibant for the prophylactic and on-demand treatment of AAE-C1INH attacks. For more information, visit https://pharvaris.com/.
