(NASDAQ: QURE), a leading gene therapy company advancing transformative therapies for patients with severe medical needs, today reported its financial results for the first quarter of 2024 and highlighted recent progress across its business. “In the first quarter, we made solid progress across three key business priorities – clarifying the road ahead for AMT-130 in Huntington’s disease, initiating three new Phase I/II clinical trials, and prudently conserving our capital,” stated Matt Kapusta, chief executive officer of uniQure. “We are on track to initiate FDA interactions on AMT-130 this quarter and look forward to presenting longer-term follow-up data from our Phase I/II trials mid-year, which will include up to three years of patient follow-up on 29 treated patients. We have also made significant progress towards the initiation of new Phase I/II studies. We have obtained IRB approvals for initial sites, which are poised for imminent activation, and have also identified prospective patients. Enrollment for the Fabry disease study is on track to begin in the second quarter of 2024, with the SOD1-ALS and MTLE studies expected to begin in third quarter.” “In addition, we are actively engaged in a comprehensive review of uniQure’s operations and options to reduce expenses and increase shareholder value,” he added. “We believe deeply in the significant value of our assets, as well as the need to achieve a focused and sustainable level of investment in order to maximize this potential. We expect to complete this evaluation mid-2024.” Recent Updates Advancing AMT-130 for the treatment of Huntington’s disease The Company is on track to initiate interactions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the second quarter of 2024 with the goal of defining the future clinical and regulatory pathway for AMT-130...
