Denali’s development pipeline includes several promising programs:
- Tividenofusp alfa (DNL310): An ETV-enabled iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) replacement therapy in late-stage development for MPS II.
- DNL343: An eIF2B activator targeting ALS, currently in the Phase 2/3 HEALEY ALS Platform Trial.
- DNL126 (ETV:SGSH): An enzyme replacement therapy for MPS IIIA, selected by the FDA for the START Pilot Program to accelerate rare disease therapeutic development.
- OTV:MAPT: Aiming to treat Alzheimer’s disease by targeting tau proteins.
- BIIB122/DNL151: A LRRK2 inhibitor co-developed with Biogen for Parkinson’s disease.
Denali’s rigorous scientific approach has garnered significant collaborations with industry giants like Sanofi, Takeda, and Biogen, enhancing its potential to revolutionize treatment for these debilitating disorders. Financially, Denali is robust, with over $1.43 billion in cash and marketable securities as of March 31, 2024, and a projected cash runway extending into 2028.
Denali’s latest news includes the initiation of clinical trials for DNL126 and the announcement of program milestones expected to make significant strides in 2024. For more details, visit Denali Therapeutics.
Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI) has initiated dosing in the global Phase 2a BEACON study of BIIB122, a LRRK2 inhibitor, for LRRK2-associated Parkinson's disease. The study will evaluate safety and biomarkers in approximately 50 participants with Parkinson's disease and LRRK2 pathogenic mutations.
The trial includes a three-month double-blind treatment period followed by an open-label extension. BIIB122 is also being investigated in the ongoing Phase 2b LUMA study for early-stage Parkinson's disease patients with or without LRRK2 mutation, in collaboration with Biogen.
Denali Therapeutics (DNLI) reported Q3 2024 financial results with a net loss of $107.2 million, compared to $99.4 million in Q3 2023. The company reported no collaboration revenue, down from $1.3 million in the previous year. R&D expenses increased to $98.2 million from $89.7 million, while G&A expenses remained stable at $24.9 million. Cash position stood at $1.28 billion as of September 30, 2024.
Key developments include plans to file for accelerated approval of tividenofusp alfa for MPS II in early 2025, positive preliminary data from DNL126 Phase 1/2 study in MPS IIIA, and the expansion of clinical trials. The company updated its 2024 guidance, projecting a 5-10% increase in cash operating expenses compared to 2023.
Denali Therapeutics (Nasdaq: DNLI) announced a successful meeting with the FDA, paving the way for accelerated approval of tividenofusp alfa (DNL310) for MPS II (Hunter syndrome) treatment. The company plans to submit a biologics license application (BLA) in early 2025 using cerebrospinal fluid heparan sulfate as a surrogate endpoint. New Phase 1/2 data show robust biomarker responses and positive clinical outcomes, including:
- 90% mean reduction in CSF HS at Week 24
- 77% of participants with normal urine GAGs at Week 24
- Significant serum NfL reduction
- Improvements in adaptive behavior, cognitive scores, hearing, liver volume, and growth
The treatment was generally well-tolerated, supporting its development for MPS II.
Denali Therapeutics (DNLI) has published groundbreaking research in Science Translational Medicine, showcasing the potential of their Oligonucleotide Transport Vehicle (OTV) platform. This innovative technology enables broad biodistribution of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) in the central nervous system (CNS) and muscle following intravenous administration.
The OTV platform, an extension of Denali's clinically validated Transport Vehicle (TV) technology, addresses a major challenge in oligonucleotide therapeutics: crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Unlike current methods requiring invasive delivery, the OTV allows for uniform distribution throughout the brain via less invasive intravenous administration.
Key findings demonstrate the OTV's ability to provide cumulative and sustained knockdown of target gene expression across multiple CNS regions and cell types, as well as in peripheral muscle tissues. This breakthrough could significantly advance the development of treatments for neurodegenerative and lysosomal storage diseases.
Denali Therapeutics (NASDAQ: DNLI) reported Q2 2024 financial results and business highlights. Key updates include:
