[{"type":"text","content":"AC Immune Reports Full Year 2022 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update Clinical-stage vaccine programs targeting amyloid-beta (Abeta), phosphorylated-Tau (pTau), and alpha-synuclein (a-syn) are all on track to reach important milestones in 2023ACI-24.060 anti-amyloid-beta vaccine for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) showed positive initial safety and immunogenicity in Phase 1b/2 ABATE trial; further interim data expected in H2 2023; first amyloid plaque PET imaging results anticipated in 2024ACI-35.030 anti-pTau vaccine for AD selected for further development by partner; anticipated H2 2023 initiation of next trial in AD to be followed by milestone payment2022 cash burn of CHF 70.9 million was better than guidance (2022: CHF 75-80 million) resulting in strong end of year financial position of CHF 122.6 million providing runway into Q3 2024, excluding potential milestone payments Lausanne, Switzerland, March 16, 2023 – AC Immune SA (NASDAQ: ACIU), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering precision medicine for neurodegenerative diseases, today reported results for the year ended December 31, 2022, and provided a corporate update. Dr. Andrea Pfeifer, CEO of AC Immune SA, commented: “Thanks to the strong progress by our experienced team over the past year, we now have highly innovative vaccines targeting neurotoxic species of Abeta, Tau or a-syn in mid- to late-stage development for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, respectively. This progress was highlighted by ABATE’s successful interim readout in AD, which is enabling the quick and informed transition to this adaptive trial’s next cohorts. Importantly, ABATE remains on track for additional readouts on ACI-24.060’s safety and immunogenicity this year, and for interim Abeta PET analyses in 2024 that will provide an opportunity for early de-risking and potentially a rapid transition to a pivotal program.” “Together, our vaccines and the highly specific diagnostics we are developing against targets such as Tau and a-syn form the cornerstone of our strategy to enable precision medicine for neurodegenerative diseases. With this strategy, our long-term goal is to identify and treat the multifactorial pathologies of each patient at their earliest stages, so that we can minimize irreversible neuronal damage and enable disease prevention.” 2022 and Subsequent Highlights ...
