NEW YORK, November 7, 2024 - Immunovant, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMVT), a clinical-stage immunology company dedicated to enabling normal lives for people with autoimmune diseases, today reported development updates and financial results for its fiscal second quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Immunovant continues to focus on moving rapidly to unlock the full potential of its lead asset, IMVT-1402, for the benefit of people with underserved autoantibody-driven diseases. With five IND applications now cleared, the company remains on course to initiate four to five potentially registrational clinical development programs by March 31, 2025. These INDs are expected to support evaluation of IMVT-1402 in a variety of indications and therapeutic areas. As previously announced, Immunovant anticipates initiating clinical trials evaluating IMVT-1402 in a total of ten indications by March 31, 2026.

"Since announcing the Phase 1 data for IMVT-1402 a year ago, we have made tremendous progress in advancing IMVT-1402 towards multiple potentially registrational study initiations. We're ahead of our goal to activate three INDs by calendar year end and we are very excited about all five cleared INDs - both those that have been announced and those that have not yet been announced. In terms of announced indications, we believe our first-in-class program with IMVT-1402 in GD has the potential to transform the treatment of GD patients who respond poorly to ATDs," said Pete Salzmann, M.D., chief executive officer of Immunovant.

"We are also excited to announce expansion of our IMVT-1402 development program into Rheumatology. Our first program in Rheumatology will be a potentially registrational study in patients with D2T RA where we believe that deeper IgG reduction has the potential to deliver better clinical outcomes in an important subset of patients with elevated RA-specific autoantibodies (ACPA). People living with D2T RA have already exhausted multiple therapeutic options yet continue to suffer from active disease, persistent disability and pain," Salzmann continued. "We believe IMVT-1402 can deliver meaningful clinical benefit in ACPA-positive (ACPA+) D2T RA patients, with a potentially best-in-class profile driven by deeper IgG reduction."

FcRn inhibition represents an attractive mechanism as a potential treatment for the approximately 70,000 US patients with D2T, ACPA+ RA. Recently disclosed in-class data demonstrated that both higher baseline ACPA levels and deeper ACPA reduction correlated with better clinical improvement in ACPA+ RA patients treated with an FcRn inhibitor. Having received FDA clearance of the IND for IMVT-1402 in RA, Immunovant plans to initiate a potentially registrational trial in ACPA+ D2T RA by March 31, 2025. The trial builds on in-class learning in terms of its target population (enriched for above-normal ACPA levels) and trial design (open-label lead-in followed by randomized withdrawal). The trial will leverage IMVT-1402's higher dose (600 mg) during the open-label induction phase of the clinical trial to maximize reduction in ACPA levels.

Recent Highlights and Upcoming Milestones

Endocrinology Program

In September 2024, Immunovant provided a GD program update consisting of new epidemiologic data characterizing unmet need in GD patients who are relapsed, uncontrolled or intolerant of ATDs, additional results from the batoclimab GD study, and an overview of the IMVT-1402 development program in GD. In November 2024, additional data on the efficacy and safety of batoclimab in Graves' thyroidal and extrathyroidal disease were presented in an oral presentation at the American Thyroid Association (ATA) 2024 Annual Meeting. These data showed that a 60% response rate (defined as T3 and T4 falling below the upper limit of normal (ULN) without increasing the ATD dose) was achieved by Week 2, demonstrating the rapidity of response to batoclimab 680mg dosed weekly. Meaningful improvements in proptosis and lid aperture were also observed at both Week 12 and Week 24. Pronounced improvements in multiple Thyroid-Related Patient-Reported Outcomes (ThyPRO-39) measurement scales were also observed, with ATD-Free Responders (defined as T3 and T4 falling below the ULN and ceasing all ATD medications) reporting greater improvements than other participants.

The batoclimab data in Graves' disease support the potential for deep IgG reduction to modify the underlying pathophysiology of the disease, which could enable a transformation of the treatment of Graves' disease for patients not well controlled on ATDs. Immunovant remains on track to initiate the first potentially registrational trial of IMVT-1402 in GD by calendar year end.

Competition for clinical trial participants with acute, active TED has increased over the course of the company's Phase 3 program to evaluate batoclimab for the treatment of thyroid eye disease (TED). As a result, top-line results are now expected to be available in the second half of calendar year 2025, along with a decision on whether to advance batoclimab to registration in TED. Data from this trial will be leveraged to inform the overall program in GD for the Company's lead asset, IMVT-1402.

Neurology Program

As previously reported, Immunovant completed enrollment of the batoclimab pivotal trial in MG, with top-line results expected to be reported by March 31, 2025. Results from this trial are expected to inform a decision regarding next steps for batoclimab in MG and the design of the MG program for IMVT-1402, which Immunovant expects to initiate by March 31, 2025.

Enrollment of study participants has completed in the Phase 2b trial evaluating batoclimab in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) for those patients to be included in the period 1 data readout expected by March 31, 2025. A decision to enroll additional patients in the batoclimab CIDP study will be made following the readout of period 1 data. Those results, as well as observations drawn from public disclosures of other studies in CIDP, will be used to inform the trial design for a potentially registrational program for IMVT-1402 in CIDP.

Corporate Update

Immunovant also announced today that it appointed Melanie Gloria as Chief Operating Officer, effective November 18, 2024. Ms. Gloria brings over 20 years of experience in the biotechnology industry, including leadership roles at Acelyrin, Horizon Therapeutics and AbbVie. At AbbVie and Horizon she led teams to achieve global approvals of HUMIRA®, Viekera Pak®, Mavyret®, Skyrizi®, Rinvoq®, TEPEZZA®, and ORILISSA®. "I am thrilled to welcome Melanie to Immunovant where her success in driving late-stage drug development will be incredibly valuable," said Salzmann. "Melanie's proven drug development capabilities are a great fit for Immunovant's portfolio."
