Inhibikase Therapeutics Announces Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results and Highlights Recent Activity

WILMINGTON, Del., Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) (“Inhibikase” or “Company”), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing IKT-001, a novel once-daily oral anti-proliferative for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (“PAH”), today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and highlighted recent developments.

“During our second quarter and in recent weeks we continued to advance our Phase 3 IMPROVE-PAH study with 26 country regulatory approvals together with the recent initiation of 43 clinical sites across a range of countries,” said Mark Iwicki, Chief Executive Officer of Inhibikase. “Also, during the quarter, favorable results of pre-clinical and Phase 1 studies of IKT-001 were presented at the American Thoracic Society International Conference, with data demonstrating improvements in pulmonary vascular and hemodynamic markers of PAH and lower potential for GI toxicity compared to imatinib mesylate. Together with the recent grant of Orphan Drug Designation from the U.S. FDA and the $50 million proceeds from the sale of shares to RA Capital, Inhibikase is well-positioned to advance IKT-001 toward its potential as the first once-daily oral anti-proliferative offering significant potential benefits to the PAH patient population.”
