No Q3 Revenue: Syros reported zero revenue for Q3 2024, down from $3.8 million last year due to the end of its Pfizer collaboration.
Major Data Milestone: The pivotal Phase III SELECT-MDS-1 trial data for tamibarotene in higher-risk MDS is expected in mid-November, viewed as a potentially transformative event for the company.
Significantly Lower Net Loss: Net loss dropped to $6.4 million ($0.16 per share) from $40.1 million ($1.43 per share) in Q3 2023, reflecting reduced R&D and G&A expenses.
Strong Cash Position: Syros ended Q3 with $58.3 million in cash, expected to fund operations into Q3 2025.
Focus on Tamibarotene: The company is preparing for an NDA filing and commercial launch, citing a US market opportunity over $800 million for tamibarotene in higher-risk MDS with RARA overexpression.
