- The United States Adopted Names Council has approved pevifoscorvir sodium as the nonproprietary name for ALG-000184, marking the first generic name for an Aligos Therapeutics compound. - Pevifoscorvir sodium is a potential best-in-class oral capsid assembly modulator being developed for chronic hepatitis B virus infection treatment. - The drug candidate is currently advancing through Phase 2 B-Supreme study with interim data projected in 2026 and topline data anticipated in 2027. - Phase 1 studies demonstrated that pevifoscorvir sodium was well-tolerated with no safety signals and showed sustained reductions in multiple HBV markers including DNA, RNA, and surface antigen.
- Aligos Therapeutics has begun dosing patients in the Phase 2 B-SUPREME study of ALG-000184, an investigational oral therapy for chronic hepatitis B virus infection. - The randomized, double-blind trial will compare ALG-000184 monotherapy with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in approximately 200 untreated adult patients over 48 weeks. - Previous Phase 1 trials demonstrated that ALG-000184 was well-tolerated with significant antiviral activity and linear pharmacokinetics. - The study aims to achieve HBV DNA levels below the lower limit of quantitation, with interim data expected in 2026 and topline results in 2027.
- Aligos Therapeutics has appointed Kieron Wesson, PhD as Vice President, Head of Chemistry Manufacturing Controls (CMC), bringing over 20 years of pharmaceutical development experience to the company. - The appointment comes at a strategic time as Aligos prepares to begin its Phase 2 study of ALG-000184 in mid-2025 for liver and viral diseases. - Dr. Wesson previously led CMC operations at Kezar Life Sciences and AN2 Therapeutics, and supported the approval and commercial launches of Kerydin® and Eucrisa® at Anacor Pharmaceuticals. - The hire reinforces Aligos' commitment to advancing its pipeline of therapeutics targeting chronic hepatitis B virus infection, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), and coronaviruses.
- Aligos Therapeutics presented 96-week data showing ALG-000184 achieved significant HBV DNA suppression in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative patients, positioning it as a potential first-line therapy for chronic hepatitis B. - The Phase 2a HERALD study of ALG-055009 demonstrated robust liver fat reduction in MASH patients, with notable efficacy even in subjects already on GLP-1 agonist therapy, suggesting potential combination treatment approaches. - Both investigational compounds maintained favorable safety profiles while showing best-in-class potential in their respective therapeutic areas, addressing significant unmet needs in liver disease treatment.
• Aligos Therapeutics has secured a $105 million private placement financing led by a life sciences investment firm, strengthening its position to advance ALG-000184 into Phase 2 clinical trials for chronic hepatitis B. • The financing structure includes a combination of common stock shares and warrants, with the transaction expected to close by February 13, 2025. • The funding is projected to extend Aligos' cash runway into the second half of 2026, supporting the company's continued development of liver and viral disease therapeutics.
• Aligos Therapeutics received FDA clearance for its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for ALG-000184, a capsid assembly modulator for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). • A Phase 1 Drug-Drug Interaction (DDI) study will assess the impact of cytochrome P450 inhibitors and inducers on ALG-000184 pharmacokinetics. • Phase 2 enabling activities are underway, with a Phase 2 study filing anticipated in Q1 2025, evaluating ALG-000184 against standard of care in CHB subjects. • ALG-000184 has demonstrated broad antiviral activity, potentially improving outcomes compared to current treatments for chronic hepatitis B.
• Aligos Therapeutics announced positive results from its Phase IIa HERALD trial of ALG-055009 for MASH, demonstrating notable liver fat reduction. • The trial, involving 102 subjects, showed that doses of ALG-055009 led to up to 70% of subjects experiencing a ≥30% relative decrease in liver fat. • ALG-055009 exhibited a favorable tolerability profile with mainly mild to moderate adverse events and significant decreases in atherogenic lipids. • Aligos is currently evaluating options to fund continued development, with plans to complete activities for a Phase IIb study by mid-2025.
