Novo Nordisk to advance ATTR amyloidosis mAb to Phase III
Novo Nordisk will advance its acquired ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy monoclonal antibody (mAb) to Phase III trials. The Danish pharma said that the Phase II trial of coramitug (PRX004), an mAb designed to deplete amyloid deposits, was 'successfully completed'. The trial investigated the efficacy and safety of once-monthly intravenous (IV) doses of coramitug compared to placebo in 105 patients with ATTR-cardiomyopathy. The primary endpoints of the trial included the functional endpoints of a six-minute walking test (6MWT), as well as a change in NT-proBNP after 52 weeks of treatment. While data has not yet been released, Novo Nordisk said results will be available at a medical conference later this year. However, the drugmaker confirmed its intention to initiate a Phase III trial of the drug in ATTR with cardiomyopathy before the end of 2025 in its Q2 2025 earnings call on 6 August. The news will be a welcome financial development for Prothena Corporation after the drug was acquired from them by Novo Nordisk in July 2021. Under the agreement, Prothena is eligible to receive up to $1.2bn upon achievement of clinical development and sales milestones, including the $100m earned to date. While NovoNordisk stocks have dropped on 6 August, in part due to the Q2 and H1 earnings announcement, Prothena's stock has risen slightly on the news, up from $7.03 at market close on 5 August to $7.45 at market open on 6 August – a 5.97% rise. Prothena's CEO Dr Gene Kinney said: 'We are excited by Novo Nordisk's decision to advance coramitug into Phase III development. There remains a significant unmet need in patients with ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy, who are at high risk for early mortality and significant morbidity due to amyloid deposition in vital organs.' ATTR successes and failures In May 2025, Prothena faced a trial setback after a Phase III study of birtamimab in patients with amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis missed its primary endpoint. During the same month, Intellia Therapeutics' stock crashed after a serious adverse event (AE) in a Phase III trial of its ATTR cardiomyopathy gene therapy. Despite this event, trials of the therapy are ongoing. US biopharma Alnylam is celebrating a recent win, however, after its ATTR cardiomyopathy drug Amvuttra (vutrisiran) gained approval by the European Commission on 11 June. This came three months after the therapy got the green light from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2025. Other approved therapies include Pfizer's Vyndamax (tafamidis) and BridgeBio Pharma's Attruby (acoramidis). After the EC approval of Amvuttra, GlobalData cardiovascular and metabolic diseases analyst Costanza Alciati said the approval marked a change in the treatment paradigm for these patients, with therapies such as coramitug and ALXN2220 also set to have an impact.

Prothena Announces Corporate Restructuring
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Prothena Corporation plc (NASDAQ:PRTA) today announced that the Company has initiated an approximate 63% reduction in its workforce to substantially reduce its operating costs to those necessary to support its remaining wholly owned programs, its obligations to partnered programs, and its anticipated business development activities. 'We have incredible Prothenians who are among the industry's most talented professionals and have dedicated their careers to advancing new treatments for patients,' said Gene Kinney, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, Prothena. 'I want to express my sincere gratitude to each Prothenian being affected by today's announcement and thank them for their passion toward our mission to treat diseases caused by protein dysregulation.' The board, management, and Company's financial advisors are collectively evaluating a comprehensive range of business options to best serve the interest of its shareholders that consider the implications of multiple recent and upcoming milestones, including: Earlier this week Roche announced that it will advance prasinezumab into Phase 3 development for early-stage Parkinson's disease Company expects initial data in August from Phase 1 ASCENT clinical trials of its wholly owned PRX012 program in Alzheimer's disease Novo Nordisk expects to share data from its Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating coramitug for ATTR-CM in the second half of 2025 Company expects to complete a Phase 1 clinical trial for PRX019 in collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb in 2026 Bristol Myers Squibb expects to complete a Phase 2 TargetTau-1 clinical trial evaluating BMS-986446 in Alzheimer's disease in 2027 Company has potential to receive up to $105 million in 2026 for clinical milestones from various partnered programs. Revised 2025 Financial Guidance Based on this reorganization, the Company is revising its full year 2025 financial guidance and expects its 2025 net cash burn from operating and investing activities to be $170 to $178 million and to end the year with approximately $298 million (midpoint) in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash. The estimated 2025 net cash burn from operating and investing activities is primarily driven by an estimated net loss of $240 to $248 million, which includes an estimated $36 million of non-cash share-based compensation expense and a $45 million non-cash income tax expense to book a full valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets. The estimated 2025 net loss includes $105 to $110 million of operating expenses associated with birtamimab and the Company's reorganization, including research, development, manufacturing and pre-commercial expenses, severance costs and contract termination fees related to manufacturing obligations, and approximately $12 million of non-cash share-based compensation expense. Therefore, the Company expects the discontinuation of birtamimab development will result in an approximate decrease of $96 million (midpoint) in annualized net cash burn. Please see the form 8-K the Company filed today for additional financial and other details.

Prothena's Partner Roche to Advance Prasinezumab into Phase III Development for Early-Stage Parkinson's Disease
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 16, 2025-- Prothena Corporation plc (NASDAQ:PRTA) today announced partner Roche will advance prasinezumab, an investigational anti-alpha-synuclein antibody, into Phase III development in early-stage Parkinson's disease. This decision is informed by data from the Phase IIb PADOVA study and ongoing open-label extensions (OLE) from both PADOVA and the Phase II PASADENA study. 'As pioneers in developing the first anti-alpha-synuclein targeting antibody, we are excited to see Roche advancing prasinezumab into Phase III development, with the potential to deliver the first disease-modifying treatment option to the millions of individuals living with Parkinson's disease and their families,' stated Gene Kinney, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, Prothena. Multiple endpoints from the PADOVA and OLE studies suggest a potential clinical benefit of prasinezumab when added to effective symptomatic treatment in early-stage Parkinson's disease. Prasinezumab showed potential clinical efficacy in the primary endpoint of time to confirmed motor progression, although missed statistical significance. Positive trends towards reduced motor progression at 104 weeks (two years) were observed; these effects appear to be sustained over longer treatment periods based on additional OLE data. The PADOVA study also provided the first biomarker evidence of prasinezumab impacting the underlying disease biology. The PASADENA and PADOVA OLE studies, which are evaluating the long-term safety and efficacy of prasinezumab in over 750 people with early-stage Parkinson's disease, are ongoing. About Prasinezumab Prasinezumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody designed to bind aggregated alpha-synuclein and thereby reduce neuronal toxicity. By reducing the build-up of alpha-synuclein protein in the brain, prasinezumab can potentially prevent further accumulation and spreading between cells, which may slow progression of the disease. Data from the Phase IIb PADOVA study suggest the possible clinical benefit of prasinezumab on top of effective symptomatic treatment in early-stage Parkinson's disease. PADOVA investigated prasinezumab in 586 people with early-stage Parkinson's disease, treated for a minimum of 18 months while on stable symptomatic treatment. Prasinezumab showed potential clinical efficacy in the primary endpoint of time to confirmed motor progression with a HR=0.84 [0.69-1.01], although the study missed statistical significance (p=0.0657). In a pre-specified analysis, the effect of prasinezumab was more pronounced in the population treated with levodopa (75% of participants), HR=0.79 [0.63-0.99], p=0.0431 (nominal). Consistent positive trends across multiple secondary and exploratory endpoints were also observed. Trends towards reduced motor progression at 104 weeks (two years) were observed, showing 30-40% relative reduction versus placebo across the overall and levodopa-treated populations. Prasinezumab continues to be well tolerated and no new safety signals were observed in the study. The safety database for prasinezumab consists of data from more than 900 Parkinson's disease study participants that have been treated with the investigational medicine, of which more than 750 remain in open label treatment with over 500 treated for 1.5-5 years. In December 2013, Prothena and Roche entered into a worldwide collaboration to develop and commercialize antibodies that target alpha-synuclein, including prasinezumab. Roche has sole responsibility for developing and commercializing prasinezumab and has agreed to pay Prothena up to double-digit teen royalties on net sales. To date, Prothena has earned $135 million with up to $620 million in additional milestone payments that include regulatory and sales milestones. In addition, Prothena has an option to co-promote prasinezumab in the U.S. About Parkinson's disease Parkinson's disease is a chronic, progressive and debilitating neurodegenerative disease characterized by the gradual loss of neurons that make dopamine and other nerve cells. Today, Parkinson's disease affects over 10 million people worldwide. The prevalence of Parkinson's disease is increasing, and it has become one of the fastest-growing neurological disorders. Currently, symptomatic treatments that effectively alleviate motor symptoms are available. However, no therapies slow down or stop the clinical progression of Parkinson's disease.
