Annexon, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANNX) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that focuses on developing novel therapeutics aimed at treating complement-mediated neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases. The company's unique scientific approach targets C1q, the initiating molecule of the classical complement pathway, to halt the inflammatory cascade before it starts, providing significant potential benefits across a range of diseases affecting the body, brain, and eye.
Annexon’s primary product candidates include:
- ANX005: A monoclonal antibody designed to block C1q, currently in pivotal Phase 3 trials for Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) and showing promising results in reducing muscle strength loss and nerve damage.
- ANX007: An antigen-binding fragment aimed at treating geographic atrophy (GA) in the eye, demonstrating notable protection against vision loss and retinal damage in Phase 2 trials.
- ANX1502: An oral small molecule inhibitor targeting autoimmune diseases, expected to generate proof-of-concept data in the second half of 2024.
In recent developments, Annexon announced positive top-line results from their Phase 3 trial of ANX005 in GBS, showing significant improvements in clinical outcomes and muscle strength. This trial marks a major milestone as ANX005 could become the first targeted treatment for GBS in the U.S. The company also showcased ANX007's potential in preserving retinal structures and vision in GA patients, with Phase 3 trials set to commence in 2024.
