Summary

Vaxcyte reported Q2 2026 results highlighting completion of enrollment in all three VAX-31 adult Phase 3 trials, a critical milestone for its lead pneumococcal conjugate vaccine program. The company dosed 6,191 adults across OPUS-1, OPUS-2, and OPUS-3, with approximately 3,500 receiving VAX-31.

The pivotal OPUS-1 trial directly compares VAX-31 against current standard-of-care vaccines Prevnar 20 and Capvaxive in 4,049 participants, with topline data expected in Q4 2026. This head-to-head design positions the company to demonstrate differentiation in a competitive adult pneumococcal vaccine market.

Financially, Vaxcyte ended the quarter with $2.5 billion in cash and investments, providing runway to advance its pipeline. The Q2 net loss of $284.3 million, up from $166.6 million year-over-year, reflects increased investment in Phase 3 trial execution and manufacturing readiness. R&D expenses rose to $267.9 million from $194.2 million, driven by VAX-31 development costs. The company also initiated a Phase 1 study for VAX-A1, a Group A Streptococcus vaccine candidate, expanding its infectious disease portfolio. Key catalysts to watch include Q4 2026 OPUS-1 topline data, H1 2027 OPUS-2/OPUS-3 results, and H1 2027 VAX-31 infant Phase 2 data.
