Conference call scheduled for Thursday, November 10^th at 4:30 p.m. ET

WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD) a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to protect humanity from serious viral respiratory diseases, today announced financial results and business highlights for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.

“It has been a productive quarter starting with a corporate rebrand emphasizing our commitment to efficiently generating antibodies that transcend the limits of naturally occurring immunity to prevent and treat life-threatening viral infections, including COVID-19,” said David Hering, chief executive officer of Invivyd. “Innovation in the monoclonal antibody space is desperately needed to create new options that overcome diminishing efficacy due to the rapidly changing nature of the virus. Leveraging our integrated discovery platform, we have engineered NVD200, our recently announced combination antibody product candidate which has potential to provide broad and durable protection against currently circulating and future COVID-19 variants. We look forward to advancing this important program into the clinic in the first quarter of 2023.”

Third Quarter and Recent Business Highlights

• In July, the Company named David Hering chief executive officer. Dave had served as the company’s interim chief executive officer and chief operating officer since February 2022. Dave brings a broad biotech and infectious disease background having served in numerous leadership roles at Novartis and Pfizer, including most recently as the president of North America Vaccines of Pfizer, Inc. where he led the launch of the first and market leading COVID-19 vaccine and subsequently the head of the mRNA franchise.
• Completed corporate rebranding and name change to reflect the Company’s focus on leveraging its best-in-class integrated discovery platform to develop and commercialize antibodies that transcend the limits of the human immune system to better prevent and treat viral respiratory diseases.
• In September, the Company announced that it will advance NVD200 into clinical trials in the first quarter of 2023. NVD200 is a combination of two monoclonal antibodies, one being a re-engineered version of adintrevimab, which demonstrated clinically meaningful results in Phase 2/3 trials prior to the emergence of the Omicron variant. NVD200 has demonstrated potent in vitro neutralizing activity against prior and current SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, including Omicron sublineages, as well as the more antigenically divergent SARS-CoV-1.
• The Company entered into a facilities lease agreement for a total of 9,600 square feet of dedicated laboratory and office space in Newton, Massachusetts. The increased space will enable the build out of additional discovery and development capabilities to maximize the potential of Invivyd’s integrated discovery platform.
• In September, the Company entered into a Platform Transfer Agreement with Adimab for the right to use its platform technology to discover, engineer and optimize antibodies.
• Invivyd presented four posters in October at ID Week 2022 in Washington, D.C. that shared data from several studies surrounding adintrevimab, including data from the Phase 1 and Phase 2/3 clinical trials.
• In October, the Company announced key leadership appointments with Fred Driscoll joining as interim chief financial officer and Christine Lindenboom joining the board of directors. The changes broaden the Company’s industry expertise in support of its development plans. The company also announced headcount changes to align resources to focus on its key programs, improve capital efficiency and operate on an accelerated timeline.
  

Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results

• Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $419 million as of September 30, 2022.
• 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 second quarter of 2024.
• Research & Development (R&D) Expenses (including In-process Research and Development): R&D expenses were $34.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $49.4 million for the comparable period of 2021. This decrease is attributable to wind-down of adintrevimab clinical trials and manufacturing, partially offset by contract manufacturing expenses related to the production of materials for use in NVD200 clinical trials and non-clinical studies.
• Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) Expenses: SG&A expenses were $13.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $11.1 million for the comparable period of 2021. This increase is attributable to higher public company costs and personnel related expenses.
• Net Loss and Net Loss per Share: Net loss was $45.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $60.4 million for the comparable period in 2021. Basic and diluted net loss per share was $0.42 for the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.98 for the comparable period in 2021.
