Pharvaris Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides Business Update

  • Top-line data from Phase 2 CHAPTER-1 prophylactic study anticipated by YE2023
  • Participated in an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA; initiation of global Phase 3 clinical study (RAPIDe-3) anticipated within 1H2024
  • Cash and cash equivalents of €158 million as of September 30, 2023

ZUG, Switzerland, Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pharvaris (Nasdaq: PHVS), a clinical-stage company developing novel, oral bradykinin-B2-receptor antagonists to treat and prevent hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023 and provided a business update.

“We appreciate the FDA’s ongoing communication and collaboration, including our recent productive End-of-Phase 2 meeting, and anticipate initiating RAPIDe-3, our global Phase 3 on-demand study of PHVS416, within the first half of 2024,” said Berndt Modig, Chief Executive Officer of Pharvaris. “Pharvaris remains committed to resolving the U.S. clinical hold on deucrictibant for the prophylactic treatment of HAE, and we are on track to submit the non-clinical rodent data to the FDA by the end of the year. Top-line data from CHAPTER-1, a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study of deucrictibant, potentially the first B2-receptor antagonist for long-term prophylaxis in HAE, is anticipated to be announced by the end of the year. Pharvaris’ financial position allows us to continue to operate with a disciplined approach as we aspire to bring best-in-class oral therapies to the HAE community.”

Recent Business Updates

  • Top-line data from CHAPTER-1, a global Phase 2 study of deucrictibant for the long-term prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks, expected to be announced by the end of 2023. CHAPTER-1, which is currently on hold in the U.S., was designed to enroll approximately 30 patients globally with a goal of evaluating deucrictibant as an oral long-term prophylactic treatment against HAE attacks, using PHVS416 (immediate-release deucrictibant capsules) as proof of concept. The efficacy and safety of deucrictibant (10 mg and 20 mg, twice-daily) and placebo will be evaluated by comparing the number of investigator-confirmed attacks during participants’ 12-week treatment period. Data from this proof-of-concept study is expected to inform the design of an anticipated Phase 3 study utilizing PHVS719, a once-daily extended-release formulation of deucrictibant. Pharvaris anticipates announcing top-line data of CHAPTER-1 by the end of 2023.
  • Participated in End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Pharvaris participated in an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA, during which Pharvaris sought feedback and aligned on the key elements of a proposed Phase 3 clinical study for PHVS416. Globally, Pharvaris is working on study startup activities with clinical site investigators and staff, and expects to initiate RAPIDe-3 within the first half of 2024.
  • Results of nonclinical toxicology study on-track to be submitted to the FDA by the end of 2023. The IND of deucrictibant for long-term prophylaxis remains on hold in the U.S. Pharvaris anticipates submitting the results of the 26-week nonclinical rodent toxicology study, which is intended to provide additional data to address the remaining clinical hold in the U.S., to the FDA by the end of 2023.
  • Clinical deucrictibant data presented at recent medical and patient meetings, supporting ongoing clinical development of deucrictibant. Pharvaris presented data from clinical studies at the 2023 Hereditary Angioedema International (HAEi) Regional Conference EMEA, the 18th German Allergy Congress, the Consortium of Independent Immunology Clinics (CIIC) Fall 2023 Conference, and the Asia Pacific Association of Allergy, Asthma, and Clinical Immunology (APAAACI) and Allergy and Clinical Immunology Society of Singapore (ACIS) APAAACI 2023 International Conference. The slides from the oral presentations and the posters are available on the Investors section of the Pharvaris website.
