Additionally, our strong cash position allows us both the flexibility and the opportunity to continue investing in our robust pipeline.”
Corporate Update
COVID-19
- The Company has made significant progress increasing global patient access to sotrovimab in partnership with GlaxoSmithKline (GSK).
- To date, binding agreements have been received for the sale of more than 420,000 doses of sotrovimab worldwide, including a portion of those procured by the U.S. government. In addition, more than 220,000 doses have been reserved through other agreements.
- The Company and GSK continue to work actively with governments around the world to make sotrovimab available to patients in need.
- Multiple countries granted marketing authorizations for sotrovimab, under the brand name Xevudy®, during the third quarter:
- In August, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) granted provisional marketing authorization for the treatment of adults and adolescents with COVID-19.
- In August, Saudi Arabia granted conditional marketing authorization for the treatment of adults and adolescents with COVID-19.
- In September, the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) granted Special Approval for Emergency (SAE) for the treatment of mild to moderate COVID.
- In addition to receiving emergency use authorization (EUA) in the U.S. and a positive scientific opinion under Article 5(3) of Regulation 726/2004 from the Committee for Human Medicinal Products (CHMP) in the European Union (EU), sotrovimab has been granted emergency or temporary use authorization in a dozen other countries.
- The European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) CHMP is conducting a rolling review of data on sotrovimab to support a forthcoming marketing authorization application (MAA). The rolling review process is expected to be complete in the fourth quarter of 2021, when an invitation to submit the MAA by the CHMP may be issued.
- The Company and GSK now plan to submit a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the first half of 2022.
- Updated in vitro data, published in bioRxiv, demonstrate that sotrovimab retains activity against all current variants of concern and interest of the SARS-CoV-2 virus as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), plus others, including, but not limited to, Delta (B.1.617.2), Delta Plus (AY.1 or AY.2) and Mu (B.1.621).
- The Company and GSK continue to advance trials evaluating intramuscular (IM) administration of sotrovimab to increase patient access and convenience. Initial data from the Phase 2 COMET-PEAK pharmacokinetic trial in outpatients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 and the Phase 3 COMET-TAIL trial for early treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in high-risk, non-hospitalized adult and adolescent patients are expected in the fourth quarter of 2021.
- Together, the companies are also supporting clinical studies evaluating whether sotrovimab, administered as prophylaxis, can help prevent symptomatic COVID-19 infection in uninfected immunocompromised adults – an area of significant unmet need.
- Preliminary human PK data presented at the International Society for Influenza and other Respiratory Virus Diseases-WHO conference in October 2021 suggest a single 500 mg dose of sotrovimab could provide prophylactic protection for at least six months.
- The Company and GSK have established a strategic manufacturing network that will enable the manufacture of approximately two million doses of sotrovimab to support emergency supply in the first year following U.S. EUA. The companies are actively working to expand their capacity to increase supply through 2022 so that they can continue to serve more patients.
- The United Kingdom’s National Health Service-supported AGILE initiative evaluating VIR-7832 in a Phase 1b/2a trial of adults with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 remains ongoing.
- To date, no safety signals have been reported for either the 50mg or 150mg dose cohorts. Additional data are expected in the first half of 2022.
- VIR-7832 shares the same characteristics as sotrovimab and has been engineered to potentially be a therapeutic T cell vaccine to further help treat and/or prevent COVID-19. In July, the FDA cleared the investigational new drug (IND) application for VIR-7832.
Chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV)
- In July, the Company initiated the Phase 2 MARCH trial to evaluate the combination of VIR-2218 and VIR-3434 as a functional cure regimen for chronic HBV infection. Initial data are expected in the first half of 2022.
- In October, the Company announced multiple abstracts (one oral and three posters) highlighting new hepatitis B data were accepted for presentation at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) The Liver Meeting® taking place virtually from November 12-15. New data highlights include:
- 24-week on-treatment data from a Phase 2 trial evaluating VIR-2218 in combination with pegylated interferon-alpha (PEG-IFN-α) (Oral presentation; Abstract #26144).
- New data from a Phase 1 trial evaluating VIR-3434 as monotherapy in patients with chronic HBV infection (Poster presentation; Abstract #28863).
- Preclinical characterization of VIR-3434 (Poster presentation; Abstract #28934).
- Self-reported patient experiences with chronic hepatitis B virus and its treatments (Poster presentation; Abstract #28731).
- Before the end of 2021, the Company and Gilead Sciences, Inc. plan to initiate a Phase 2 trial to evaluate the combination of VIR-2218, selgantolimod (GS-9688), Gilead’s investigational TLR-8 agonist, and nivolumab, an approved PD-1 inhibitor, as a potential functional cure regimen for chronic HBV infection.
- The Company’s collaborator Brii Biosciences continues to lead the Phase 2 trial evaluating VIR-2218 in combination with BRII-179, an investigational T cell vaccine, for the treatment of chronic HBV infection. Initial data are expected in the second half of 2022.
Pipeline
- The Company is conducting a proof-of-concept Phase 1 trial of VIR-1111, an investigational HIV T cell vaccine based on human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), to evaluate whether this new approach can elicit potentially protective immune responses that differ from other HIV vaccines. Initial clinical data from the first cohort are expected in the fourth quarter of 2021.
- Due to an anticipated relatively low incidence of influenza in the Northern Hemisphere this winter, the Company is deferring initiation of its Phase 2 trial of VIR-2482. Relatedly, the Company and GSK are evaluating the potential of several next-generation monoclonal antibodies for influenza treatment and prevention, functional genomics applications for respiratory targets and monoclonal antibodies for non-influenza diseases.
Publications
• During and following the third quarter, five manuscripts were published related to the Company’s efforts to address SARS-CoV-2 and other infectious diseases. Importantly, interim data from the Phase 3 COMET-ICE trial were published in The New England Journal of Medicine. These publications can be found on the Literature Archive page of the Vir website.
Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results
- Revenues: Total revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, were
$103.6 million , compared to$1.9 million for the same period in 2020.- Collaboration revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$102.4 million , compared to zero for the same period in 2020. The increase for the quarter was related to revenue from the Company’s profit-sharing arrangement with GSK for the sale of sotrovimab under the Company’s 2020 GSK agreement. The Company’s contractual share of72.5% from the sales of sotrovimab is based upon the revenue reported in the period to the Company by GSK ($156.7 million ), net of cost of sales and allowable expenses (including distribution, selling and marketing expenses). Collaboration revenues reflect the delivery of well over 50,000 doses of sotrovimab in the period compared to zero doses for the same period in 2020. - Contract revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$0.3 million , compared to$0.2 million for the same period in 2020. - Grant revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$0.9 million , compared to$1.7 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease for the quarter was primarily due to the timing of research activities under the HIV and tuberculosis grants with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
- Collaboration revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
- Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$7.8 million , with no comparable amount for the same period in 2020. The increase for the quarter was due to third-party royalties owed based on the sales of sotrovimab.
- Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses were
$98.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, which includes$11.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, compared to$70.7 million for the same period in 2020, which included$4.2 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense. The increase for the quarter was primarily due to costs related to sotrovimab, VIR-2218 and VIR-3434 clinical trials, personnel-related expenses resulting from higher headcount, and costs incurred under collaboration arrangements with GSK, which were partially offset by decreases in contract manufacturing expenses for the Company’s COVID-19 product candidates completed in the third quarter of 2020, and the fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration related to research and development activities.
- Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses were
$50.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, which includes$11.8 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, compared to$18.9 million for the same period in 2020, which included$4.4 million of non-cash stock-based compensation expense. The increase for the quarter was primarily due to higher fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration related to selling and marketing activities, personnel-related expenses attributable to additional headcount, external consulting services, and allocated facilities costs due to higher lease expense.
- Other Income: Other income for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$164.1 million , compared to$3.0 million for the same period in 2020. The increase for the quarter was primarily due to the unrealized gain of$164.1 million resulting from the change in fair value of the Company's equity investment in Brii Biosciences.
- Net Income (Loss): Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, was
$110.4 million , or$0.85 per share, basic and$0.82 per share, diluted, compared to a net loss of$84.6 million , or$0.67 per share, basic and diluted, for the same period in 2020. The increase for the quarter was primarily due to collaboration revenue recognized under the GSK arrangement and unrealized gain related to the equity investment in Brii Biosciences.
- Cash and Cash Equivalents: As of September 30, 2021, excluding restricted cash, the Company had approximately
$939.5 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments. Excluding restricted cash and its equity investment in Brii Biosciences, the Company had approximately$770.1 million in cash, cash equivalents and investments.
About Sotrovimab
Sotrovimab is an investigational SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody. Preclinical data suggest it has the potential to both block viral entry into healthy cells and clear infected cells. The antibody binds to an epitope on SARS-CoV-2 that is shared with SARS-CoV-1 (the virus that causes SARS), indicating that the epitope is highly conserved, which may make it more difficult for resistance to develop. Sotrovimab, which incorporates Xencor’s Xtend™ technology, also has been designed to achieve high concentration in the lungs to ensure optimal penetration into airway tissues affected by SARS-CoV-2 and to have an extended half-life.
The following is a summary of information for sotrovimab. Healthcare providers in the U.S. should review the Fact Sheets for information on the authorized use of sotrovimab and mandatory requirements of the EUA. Please see the FDA Letter of Authorization, Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers, and Fact Sheet for Patients, Parents, and Caregivers. For more information on the EMA positive scientific opinion, please review the EU Conditions of Use.
Important Information about Sotrovimab
Sotrovimab has been authorized by the FDA for the emergency use described below. Sotrovimab is not FDA-approved for this use.
Sotrovimab is authorized only for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of the emergency use of sotrovimab under section 564(b)(1) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(b)(1), unless the authorization is terminated or revoked sooner.
Authorized Use
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to permit the emergency use of the unapproved product sotrovimab for the treatment of mild-to-moderate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in adults and pediatric patients (12 years of age and older weighing at least 40 kg) with positive results of direct SARS-CoV-2 viral testing, and who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death.
Limitations of Authorized Use
Sotrovimab is not authorized for use in patients:
- who are hospitalized due to COVID-19, OR
- who require oxygen therapy due to COVID-19, OR
- who require an increase in baseline oxygen flow rate due to COVID-19 (in those on chronic oxygen therapy due to underlying non-COVID-19 related comorbidity).
Benefit of treatment with sotrovimab has not been observed in patients hospitalized due to COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies may be associated with worse clinical outcomes when administered to hospitalized patients with COVID-19 requiring high flow oxygen or mechanical ventilation.
Important Safety Information for Sotrovimab
Warnings
There are limited clinical data available for sotrovimab. Serious and unexpected adverse events may occur that have not been previously reported with sotrovimab use.
Hypersensitivity Including Anaphylaxis and Infusion-Related Reactions
Serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis have been observed with administration of sotrovimab. If signs and symptoms of a clinically significant hypersensitivity reaction or anaphylaxis occur, immediately discontinue administration and initiate appropriate medications and/or supportive care.
Infusion-related reactions, occurring during the infusion and up to 24 hours after the infusion, have been observed with administration of sotrovimab. These reactions may be severe or life threatening.
Signs and symptoms of infusion-related reactions may include: fever, difficulty breathing, reduced oxygen saturation, chills, fatigue, arrhythmia (eg, atrial fibrillation, sinus tachycardia, bradycardia), chest pain or discomfort, weakness, altered mental status, nausea, headache, bronchospasm, hypotension, hypertension, angioedema, throat irritation, rash including urticaria, pruritus, myalgia, vaso-vagal reactions (eg, pre-syncope, syncope), dizziness and diaphoresis.
Consider slowing or stopping the infusion and administer appropriate medications and/or supportive care if an infusion-related reaction occurs.
Hypersensitivity reactions occurring more than 24 hours after the infusion have also been reported with the use of SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies under Emergency Use Authorization.
Clinical Worsening After SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibody Administration
Clinical worsening of COVID-19 after administration of SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody treatment has been reported and may include signs or symptoms of fever, hypoxia or increased respiratory difficulty, arrhythmia (eg, atrial fibrillation, tachycardia, bradycardia), fatigue, and altered mental status. Some of these events required hospitalization. It is not known if these events were related to SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody use or were due to progression of COVID-19.
Limitations of Benefit and Potential for Risk in Patients with Severe COVID-19
Benefit of treatment with sotrovimab has not been observed in patients hospitalized due to COVID-19. SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies may be associated with worse clinical outcomes when administered to hospitalized patients with COVID-19 requiring high flow oxygen or mechanical ventilation. Therefore, sotrovimab is not authorized for use in patients: who are hospitalized due to COVID-19, OR who require oxygen therapy due to COVID-19, OR who require an increase in baseline oxygen flow rate due to COVID-19 in those on chronic oxygen therapy due to underlying non-COVID-19 related comorbidity.
ADVERSE EVENTS
The most common treatment-emergent adverse events observed in the sotrovimab treatment group in COMET-ICE were rash (
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy
There are insufficient data to evaluate a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcome. Sotrovimab should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk for the mother and the fetus.
Lactation
There are no available data on the presence of sotrovimab in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Individuals with COVID-19 who are breastfeeding should follow practices according to clinical guidelines to avoid exposing the infant to COVID-19.
About VIR-7832
VIR-7832 is an investigational dual-action SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody. Preclinical data suggest it has the potential to both block viral entry into healthy cells and an enhanced ability to clear infected cells. The antibody binds to an epitope on SARS-CoV-2 that is shared with SARS-CoV-1 (the virus that causes SARS), indicating that the epitope is highly conserved, which may make it more difficult for resistance to develop. VIR-7832, which incorporates Xencor’s Xtend and other Fc technologies, has been designed to achieve high concentration in the lungs to ensure optimal penetration into airway tissues affected by SARS-CoV-2 and to have an extended half-life. Importantly, VIR-7832 also has been engineered to potentially enhance virus-specific T cell function, which could help treat and/or prevent COVID-19 infection.
About VIR-2218
VIR-2218 is an investigational subcutaneously administered HBV-targeting siRNA that has the potential to stimulate an effective immune response and have direct antiviral activity against HBV. It is the first siRNA in the clinic to include Enhanced Stabilization Chemistry Plus (ESC+) technology to enhance stability and minimize off-target activity, which potentially can result in an increased therapeutic index. VIR-2218 is the first asset in the company’s collaboration with Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. to enter clinical trials.
About VIR-3434
VIR-3434 is an investigational subcutaneously administered HBV-neutralizing monoclonal antibody designed to block entry of all 10 genotypes of HBV into hepatocytes and also to reduce the level of virions and subviral particles in the blood. VIR-3434, which incorporates Xencor’s Xtend and other Fc technologies, has been engineered to potentially function as a T cell vaccine against HBV in infected patients, as well as to have an extended half-life.
About VIR-1111
VIR-1111 is an investigational subcutaneously administered HIV T cell vaccine based on HCMV that has been designed to elicit abundant T cells that recognize HIV epitopes in a way that differs from prior HIV vaccines.
About VIR-2482
VIR-2482 is an investigational intramuscularly administered influenza A-neutralizing monoclonal antibody. In vitro, it has been shown to cover all major strains of influenza A that have arisen since the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. VIR-2482 is designed as a universal prophylactic for influenza A. It has the potential to overcome the limitations of current flu vaccines and lead to meaningfully higher levels of protection due to its broad strain coverage and because it does not rely on an individual to create their own protective antibody response. VIR-2482, which incorporates Xencor’s Xtend technology, also has been half-life engineered so that a single dose has the potential to last the entire flu season.
Vir’s Commitment to COVID-19
Vir was founded with the mission of addressing the world’s most serious infectious diseases. In 2020, Vir responded rapidly to the COVID-19 pandemic by leveraging our unique scientific insights and industry-leading antibody platform to explore multiple monoclonal antibodies as potential therapeutic or preventive options for COVID-19. Sotrovimab is the first SARS-CoV-2-targeting antibody Vir advanced into the clinic. It was carefully selected for its demonstrated promise in preclinical research, including an anticipated high barrier to resistance and potential ability to both block the virus from entering healthy cells and clear infected cells. Vir is continuing to pursue novel therapeutic and prophylactic solutions to combat SARS-CoV-2 and future coronavirus pandemics, both independently and in collaboration with its partners.
About Vir Biotechnology
