What Cardiff Oncology, Inc. does

In the company’s own words

Cardiff Oncology, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDF) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing novel cancer therapies leveraging PLK1 inhibition, a well-validated oncology drug target. The company's website is www.cardiffoncology.com.

Cardiff's lead drug candidate is onvansertib, an oral, small molecule PLK1 inhibitor with a 24-hour half-life designed to be used in combination with standard-of-care cancer therapeutics. Onvansertib is highly potent and selective for PLK1 compared to prior pan-inhibitors, with demonstrated oral bioavailability and a favorable safety profile. In vitro and in vivo studies have shown synergistic effects when onvansertib is combined with various cytotoxic agents including microtubule-targeting agents, topoisomerase inhibitors, antimetabolites, PARP inhibitors, and immunotherapies.

The company is conducting multiple clinical trials across several cancer indications. The primary program, CRDF-004, is a Phase 2 randomized trial evaluating onvansertib in combination with FOLFIRI or FOLFOX and bevacizumab for first-line treatment of RAS-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer. Additional investigator-initiated trials are underway in metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, small cell lung cancer, metastatic triple negative breast cancer, and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. Recent clinical data from the mTNBC trial presented at ASCO in June 2025 demonstrated a 40 percent objective response rate at the recommended Phase 2 dose.

Cardiff's intellectual property portfolio includes 51 issued patents and 65 pending patent applications covering onvansertib composition of matter, methods of use, and combination therapies. The company licenses onvansertib from Nerviano Medical Sciences under an exclusive worldwide license agreement. Cardiff also maintains an information rights agreement with Pfizer Inc., which purchased equity in the company in 2021 and provides clinical trial services through Pfizer Ignite for the CRDF-004 program.

The company operates one business segment focused on oncology drug development and maintains operations and decision-making functions in the United States, with a laboratory in San Diego, California dedicated to biomarker analysis and drug development optimization.
