On October 6, 2025, Skye issued a press release “announc[ing] the topline data from its 26-week Phase 2a CBeyond™ proof-of-concept study of nimacimab[.]” The press release disclosed that the “the nimacimab monotherapy arm did not achieve the primary endpoint of weight loss compared to placebo” and that “preliminary pharmacokinetic analysis showed lower than expected drug exposure, potentially indicating the need for higher dosing as a monotherapy.”
On this news, Skye’s stock price fell $2.85 per share, or 60%, to close at $1.90 per share on October 6, 2025.
