AEON Biopharma, Inc. (NYSE: AEON, AEON WS) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing innovative therapeutics for serious medical conditions. The company's flagship product, ABP-450 (prabotulinumtoxinA) Injection, is a proprietary botulinum toxin complex designed to treat debilitating conditions such as episodic and chronic migraines, cervical dystonia, and gastroparesis. ABP-450 is the same botulinum toxin type-A complex marketed for cosmetic use under the name Jeuveau by Evolus and is manufactured by Daewoong in compliance with cGMP standards.
AEON recently completed a significant merger and business combination with Priveterra Acquisition Corp., resulting in the company's listing on the New York Stock Exchange American. The company has secured $125 million in funding, which includes approximately $50 million in committed financing from existing and new investors, ensuring a cash runway beyond the announcement of key clinical milestones in their ongoing Phase 2 studies.
In the realm of clinical development, AEON's pipeline is robust. Besides completing a Phase 2 study for episodic migraine, which showed promising results, the company is also conducting a Phase 2 study for chronic migraine. However, the initial topline results from the Phase 2 study for chronic migraine did not meet the primary endpoint, prompting AEON to undertake further analysis and strategic review.
AEON has a diverse late-stage clinical pipeline targeting multiple indications. This includes plans for a Phase 3 study of ABP-450 for cervical dystonia and a Phase 2 study for gastroparesis, both of which are poised to advance pending final approvals. Additionally, IND-enabling studies are planned for the treatment of PTSD, further showcasing AEON's commitment to addressing unmet medical needs.
The company's management team comprises industry veterans with extensive experience in biopharmaceutical development and commercialization. This team is led by CEO Marc Forth and Chairman Jost Fischer, who have guided AEON through pivotal milestones, including significant funding rounds and obtaining a key U.S. patent for the use of ABP-450 in treating migraines.

AEON Biopharma announced a strategic reprioritization and cost reduction plan, aiming to extend its cash runway into Q4 2024 while evaluating funding options for its late-stage clinical pipeline. Key actions include a workforce reduction of approximately 55%, termination of CFO Peter Reynolds, and the appointment of CEO Marc Forth and Corporate Controller Jennifer Sy to additional roles as principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, respectively. The company will discontinue the Phase 2 study of ABP-450 for chronic migraine prevention due to unmet endpoints, focusing instead on analyzing interim data and maintaining patient safety.
AEON Biopharma reported its Q1 2024 financial results, revealing ongoing analysis of interim data from its Phase 2 study of ABP-450 in chronic migraine, which did not meet primary or secondary endpoints. The company is evaluating the next steps for ABP-450 across its late-stage clinical pipeline, targeting multiple indications. Key developments include a productive end-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA for episodic migraine, despite not achieving the primary endpoint, and a $15 million private placement agreement with Daewoong Pharmaceutical. The funds will be used for general working capital.
AEON Biopharma, Inc. provided an update on its development pipeline, highlighting late-stage and early-stage clinical programs. The company focuses on a botulinum toxin complex for treating medical conditions. While ABP-450 did not show superiority over placebo in chronic migraine, the company remains optimistic about its migraine program and other indications. The portfolio includes studies on episodic migraine, cervical dystonia, gastroparesis, and PTSD.
AEON Biopharma announced that the preliminary results from the Phase 2 trial with ABP-450 for chronic migraine prevention did not meet the primary endpoint of mean reduction in monthly migraine days. The trial showed no statistical significance in reduction compared to placebo, leading to the company initiating cash preservation measures and reviewing strategic options.
