Invivyd Reports Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Business Highlights

  • Reported positive initial Phase 1 VYD222 clinical trial data, including favorable safety data and robust serum neutralizing titers from all three dose levels tested
  • Plans to pursue rapid initiation of a 750-participant pivotal clinical trial of VYD222 (CANOPY) that will utilize Day 28 serum neutralizing titers from a subset of the population as part of a potential EUA submission for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19
  • The company expects to have initial primary endpoint data from CANOPY by approximately the end of 2023
  • Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $298.4 million expected to support operating runway into the fourth quarter of 2024, excluding potential contribution of commercial product revenue
  • Conference call scheduled for Thursday, August 10th at 4:30 p.m. ET

WALTHAM, Mass, Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to protect the vulnerable from serious viral infectious diseases, today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, and recent business highlights.

“I am very excited with the progress we made in the second quarter. On the heels of positive initial data from our Phase 1 VYD222 clinical trial and productive conversations with the FDA on a rapid pathway to a potential EUA, we are working with urgency to initiate a pivotal clinical trial of VYD222 for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19, referred to as the CANOPY trial,” said Dave Hering, Chief Executive Officer of Invivyd. “With the size and efficient design of the CANOPY trial, including a primary efficacy endpoint based on the analysis of serum neutralizing titers at Day 28, we believe that we can swiftly enroll the trial and generate the data necessary to enable a potential EUA submission. We’ve continued to see strong interest from our clinical sites and immunocompromised people, with more than 1,000 immunocompromised individuals now in our database of potentially eligible individuals, which speaks to the strong unmet medical need.”

Recent VYD222 Program Updates:

  • Plans to initiate VYD222 pivotal clinical trial using a surrogate endpoint to generate the clinical data needed to enable a potential emergency use authorization (EUA) submission: In a pivotal clinical trial of VYD222, referred to as the CANOPY trial, Invivyd plans to enroll approximately 750 participants across two cohorts in parallel. Cohort A is expected to enroll approximately 300 participants who are significantly immunocompromised. For Cohort A, the company plans to use serum neutralizing titers against relevant SARS-CoV-2 variants at Day 28 as the primary efficacy endpoint. The primary efficacy analysis will use an immunobridging approach comparing data obtained in the CANOPY trial for VYD222 to certain historical data from the company’s previous Phase 2/3 clinical trial of adintrevimab for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19, in which serum neutralizing titers correlated with observed clinical efficacy. All Cohort A participants will receive VYD222 administered via IV infusion.

    In Cohort B, the company expects to enroll approximately 450 participants at risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2. The primary endpoint will be safety and tolerability. Secondary and exploratory endpoints will include serum neutralizing titers and clinical efficacy. Cohort B participants will be randomized 2:1 to receive VYD222 or placebo administered via IV infusion.

    Invivyd plans to initiate the CANOPY trial with the 4500 mg dose of VYD222. While the company believes that all three VYD222 doses tested in the Phase 1 clinical trial (1500 mg, 2500 mg, and 4500 mg) have the potential to provide clinically meaningful protection against symptomatic COVID-19, the company has decided to initiate the CANOPY trial with the VYD222 dose that provided the highest serum neutralizing titers against Omicron XBB.1.5. This decision was informed by the FDA’s preference for a conservative serum neutralizing titer benchmark and the 4500 mg VYD222 dose. The company believes that the 4500 mg dose has the potential to provide a significant duration of protection, while also providing protection against potential loss of neutralization activity as SARS-CoV-2 evolves over time.

    The company expects to have initial primary endpoint data from the CANOPY trial by approximately the end of 2023.
  • Reported positive initial Phase 1 VYD222 clinical trial data: In June and July 2023, Invivyd announced positive initial data from the ongoing Phase 1 healthy volunteer clinical trial of VYD222. The initial Phase 1 data showed a favorable safety and tolerability profile, as well as robust serum neutralizing titers against Omicron XBB.1.5 at Day 7 from all three dose levels tested (1500 mg, 2500 mg, and 4500 mg). Previous COVID-19 vaccine and monoclonal antibody (mAb) clinical trials, including the company’s past Phase 2/3 adintrevimab clinical trial, have demonstrated that serum neutralizing titers are correlated with the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19.

  • Reached general alignment with FDA on pathway to potential EUA for VYD222 and anticipated follow-on mAb candidates designed to prevent COVID-19: Based on FDA feedback, the use of a correlate of protection, or a surrogate of clinical efficacy, in an immunobridging approach to a pivotal clinical trial may be a reasonable approach to support an EUA for new mAb candidates when clinical trial data from a “prototype” mAb are available, provided that certain criteria are met. Invivyd plans to leverage its previous candidate, adintrevimab, as the prototype mAb for VYD222.

Recent Corporate Updates:

  • Continued progress advancing the company’s platform and pipeline of anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAbs: As part of its commitment to serial innovation, Invivyd is continuously monitoring SARS-CoV-2 viral evolution and leveraging its predictive modeling, B-cell mining and antibody engineering capabilities to identify and optimize potential next generation mAb candidates. The company continues to advance its preclinical work characterizing potential future anti-SARS-CoV-2 mAb candidates.

  • Appointed Sara Cotter to board of directors: In July 2023, Invivyd appointed Sara Cotter to its board of directors. Ms. Cotter brings extensive leadership experience spanning healthcare investment management and drug development, including experience as the founder and chief executive officer of Levo Therapeutics, Inc.   

Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results:

  • Cash position: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $298.4 million as of June 30, 2023.

  • Cash runway: Based on current operating plans, Invivyd expects its existing total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will enable the company to fund its operating expenses into the fourth quarter of 2024, excluding potential contribution of commercial product revenue if a mAb candidate is authorized or approved.

  • Research & development (R&D) expenses (including in-process research & development): R&D expenses were $43.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $37.1 million for the comparable period of 2022. This increase is attributable to higher contract manufacturing costs driven by VYD222 commercial manufacturing, partially offset by a decrease in adintrevimab-related contract manufacturing and contract research activities.

  • Selling, general & administrative (SG&A) expenses: SG&A expenses were $10.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $14.6 million for the comparable period of 2022. This decrease is attributable primarily to reduced consulting costs, professional fees and public company costs.

  • Net loss and net loss per share: Net loss was $50.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $51.0 million for the comparable period in 2022. Basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.46 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $0.47 for the comparable period in 2022.
