Secura Bio

Commercializes oncology therapies and develops COPIKTRA

Overview

Secura Bio is an integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on bringing oncology therapies to patients. Its main product is COPIKTRA (duvelisib), an oral PI3K inhibitor used to treat adults with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL). The company is also running a Phase 3 study of COPIKTRA for relapsed or refractory nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma. Secura Bio’s approach centers on acquiring, developing, and commercializing approved and late-stage oncology assets, with headquarters in Las Vegas and a European office in Dublin. In simple terms, the company buys or develops cancer drugs and then brings them to doctors and patients who need them. Its goal is to close the gap between available oncology therapies and the patients who can benefit from them.

What believers are saying

  • As of November 2026, COPIKTRA crossed $200 million cumulative worldwide net sales.
  • April 2026 JCO PRIMO results showed 48.0% ORR and 33.3% complete responses in PTCL.
  • November 2026 ASH posters extend duvelisib into CTCL, widening future label opportunities.

What critics are saying

  • COPIKTRA carries 15% treatment-related mortality, including infections, limiting adoption in CLL and SLL.
  • TERZO is the company's existential bet; a negative 2027 readout would crush pipeline value.
  • Commercial concentration on duvelisib leaves Secura exposed if competitor BTK regimens displace it.

What makes Secura Bio unique

  • COPIKTRA is the first U.S. approved dual PI3K-δ/γ inhibitor, with 2026 lymphoma data.
  • Secura Bio targets niche T-cell lymphomas, where NCCN updated guidelines favor duvelisib in 2025.
  • TERZO enrolled over 50% by April 2026, showing credible late-stage execution.

November 04, 2026 09:01 ET | Source: Secura Bio Phase 2 PRIMO sub-analysis highlights outcomes with duvelisib in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma who proceeded to stem cell transplant Novel topical formulation of duvelisib in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma featured in Phase 1 Trials in Progress poster BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Secura Bio, Inc. (www.securabio.com), an integrated pharmaceutical company maximizing commercial outcomes for oncology medicines, today announced two posters on duvelisib, the Company's oral dual inhibitor of PI3K-δ and PI3K-γ, have been accepted for presentation at the upcoming 2026 American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting taking place December 12-15, 2026, in New Orleans, Louisiana. A poster characterizing outcomes for peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients from the completed Phase 2 PRIMO study who achieved sufficient disease control with duvelisib to subsequently undergo stem cell transplant will be presented. Final results from the PRIMO study were published earlier this year in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. A "Trials in Progress" poster detailing a new Phase 1 study for a novel topical formulation of duvelisib also will be presented. This is the first-ever clinical study evaluating a topical PI3K-δ/γ inhibitor in patients with early-stage Mycosis fungoides (MF), the most common subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Presentation Details Poster Number: 1834 Title: Duvelisib in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma: Final Results from the Phase 2 PRIMO Trial: Outcomes in Patients who Proceeded to Stem Cell Transplant Session Date: Saturday, December 12, 2026 Time: 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm EST Location: MCCNO - Hall F Presenter: Neha Mehta-Shah, M.D., Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO Poster Number: 3619 Title: A Phase 1 dose-escalation study of topical duvelisib in patients with early-stage mycosis fungoides (MF) Session Date: Sunday, December 13, 2026 Time: 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm EST Location: MCCNO - Hall F Presenter: Sima Rozati, M.D., Ph.D., Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD About Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a rare, aggressive type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that develops in mature white blood cells that circulate through the bloodstream and lymphatic system. PTCL accounts for between 10%-15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas and generally affects people aged 60 years and older. Although there are many different subtypes of PTCL, they often present in a similar way, with widespread, enlarged, typically painless lymph nodes in the neck, armpit, and/or groin. There are currently no well-established standards of care for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. 1,[2] About Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that develops when white blood cells become abnormal and accumulate on the skin, presenting as painful, scaly patches, plaques or tumors that can spread across the body. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of CTCL, affecting approximately 50%-60% of CTCL patients. Current treatment is generally broad-acting and not aimed at underlying biological causes of the disease. About COPIKTRA(R)(duvelisib) COPIKTRA(R) is an oral inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and the first US approved dual inhibitor of PI3K-delta and PI3K-gamma pathways, two enzymes known to help support the growth and survival of malignant cells. PI3K signaling may lead to the proliferation of malignant cells and is thought to play a role in the formation and maintenance of a supportive tumor microenvironment. COPIKTRA is indicated in the United States for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy.[3] COPIKTRA is also being developed for the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), for which it has received Fast Track status in the United States and is being investigated in combination with other agents through investigator-sponsored studies. It is also being developed for the treatment of cutaneous t-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Treatment of T-cell lymphomas is a disease category for which COPIKTRA is not currently indicated. For more information on COPIKTRA, please visit www.COPIKTRA.com. INDICATIONS AND USAGE COPIKTRA(R)(duvelisib) is indicated for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. Limitations of Use: COPIKTRA is not indicated or recommended for the treatment of any patients with CLL or SLL as initial or second line treatment due to an increased risk of treatment-related mortality. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION * Treatment-related mortality occurred in 15% of COPIKTRA treated patients. * Fatal and/or serious infections occurred in 31% (4% fatal) of COPIKTRA-treated patients. Monitor for signs and symptoms of infection. Withhold COPIKTRA if infection is suspected. * Fatal and/or serious diarrhea or colitis occurred in 18% (<1% fatal) of COPIKTRA-treated patients. Monitor for the development of severe diarrhea or colitis. Withhold COPIKTRA. * Fatal and/or serious cutaneous reactions occurred in 5% (<1% fatal) of COPIKTRA-treated patients. Withhold COPIKTRA. * Fatal and/or serious pneumonitis occurred in 5% (<1% fatal) of COPIKTRA-treated patients. Monitor for pulmonary symptoms and interstitial infiltrates. Withhold COPIKTRA. WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Treatment-related Mortality: In a randomized controlled trial in patients with relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL, treatment with COPIKTRA caused increased treatment-related mortality. With extended follow-up with a median of 63 months, treatment-related deaths occurred in 15% (23/158) of those patients in the overall population. In the indicated patient population, patients with relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. Treatment related deaths following treatment with COPIKTRA occurred in 14% (13/93) of patients. The most common cause of the treatment-related deaths were infections, which occurred in 9% and 11% of patients with relapsed or refractory CLL following at least one or two prior systemic therapies, respectively. COPIKTRA is not indicated and is not recommended for any patients in the initial or second-line treatment setting. Infections: Serious, including fatal (18/442, 4%), infections occurred in 31% of patients receiving COPIKTRA. The most common serious infections were pneumonia, sepsis, and lower respiratory infections. Median time to onset of any grade infection was 3 months, with 75% of cases occurring within 6 months. Treat infections prior to initiation of COPIKTRA. Advise patients to report new or worsening signs and symptoms of infection. Cases of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) (1%) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation/infection (1%) occurred in patients taking COPIKTRA. Provide prophylaxis for PJP during treatment and following completion of treatment until the absolute CD4+ T cell count is greater than 200 cells/μL. Consider prophylactic antivirals during COPIKTRA treatment to prevent CMV infection, including CMV reactivation. Diarrhea or Colitis: Serious, including fatal (1/442; 0.2%); diarrhea or colitis occurred in 18% of patients receiving COPIKTRA. Median time to onset of any grade diarrhea or colitis was 4 months, with 75% of cases occurring by 8 months. The median event duration was 0.5 months. Advise patients to report any new or worsening diarrhea. Cutaneous Reactions: Serious, including fatal (2/442; 0.5%); cutaneous reactions occurred in 5% of patients receiving COPIKTRA. Fatal cases included drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). Median time to onset of any grade cutaneous reaction was 3 months with a median event duration of 1 month. Presenting features for serious events were primarily described as pruritic, erythematous, or maculo-papular. Less common presenting features include exanthem, desquamation, erythroderma, skin exfoliation, keratinocyte necrosis, and papular rash. Advise patients to report new or worsening cutaneous reactions. Pneumonitis: Serious, including fatal (1/442; 0.2%), pneumonitis without an apparent infectious cause occurred in 5% of patients receiving COPIKTRA. Median time to onset of any grade pneumonitis was 4 months with 75% of cases occurring within 9 months. The median event duration was 1 month with 75% of cases resolving by 2 months. Hepatotoxicity: Grade 3 and 4 ALT and/or AST elevation developed in 8% and 2%, respectively, of patients receiving COPIKTRA (N=442). Two percent of patients had both an ALT or AST > 3 X ULN and total bilirubin > 2 X ULN. Median time to onset of any grade transaminase elevation was 2 months with a median event duration of 1 month. Monitor hepatic function during treatment with COPIKTRA. Neutropenia: Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurred in 42% of patients receiving COPIKTRA (N=442), with Grade 4 neutropenia occurring in 24% of all patients. Median time to onset of grade >=3 neutropenia was 2 months. Monitor neutrophil counts at least every 2 weeks for the first 2 months of COPIKTRA therapy, and at least weekly in patients with neutrophil counts < 1.0 Gi/L (Grade 3-4). Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: COPIKTRA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus and conduct pregnancy testing before initiating COPIKTRA treatment. Advise females of reproductive potential and males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 1 month after the last dose.
