SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clene Inc. (Nasdaq: CLNN) along with its subsidiaries “Clene” and its wholly owned subsidiary Clene Nanomedicine Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on revolutionizing the treatment of neurodegenerative disease with its potential first-in-class catalytically active nanocrystal suspension, today reported its third quarter 2021 operating and financial results.

“We believe that the top-line data from RESCUE-ALS, a Phase 2 proof-of-concept clinical trial evaluating CNM-Au8 as a disease modifying treatment for people with early ALS, indicate the potential of CNM-Au8 to benefit patients living with this debilitating and deadly disease. The results also provide further support in the ability of our nanotherapeutics to treat energetic failure, an underlying cause of many neurological diseases,” said Rob Etherington, President and CEO of Clene. “Based on these results, we look forward to reporting results from the Phase 2/3 HEALEY ALS Platform Trial, which we expect in the second half of 2022.”

Third Quarter 2021 and Recent Highlights

CNM-Au8 for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS):

Reported top-line results from RESCUE-ALS Phase 2 trial

RESCUE-ALS is a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating CNM-Au8 as a disease modifying treatment for people with early amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This 36-week randomized, placebo-controlled trial enrolled 45 patients, randomized 1:1 to treatment with CNM-Au8 at 30 mg daily or matching placebo on top of standard of care. As previously announced, the trial did not meet the primary endpoint, change in MUNIX score at week 36. In this study, ALS patients with early bulbar-onset did not worsen in MUNIX, which measures lower motor neurons located in the spinal cord. In a pre-specified subset analysis of limb onset patients, who did progress in MUNIX as expected, CNM-Au8 demonstrated an absolute improvement from baseline at week 12 (p=0.0385) and a 45% relative improvement at week 36 (p=0.0741). RESCUE-ALS is first study to use MUNIX as a primary endpoint in a phase 2 proof of concept trial in ALS and these results suggest lower motor neuron protection in limb onset ALS, which accounts for approximately 70% of the ALS population. Importantly, in this study there were statistically significant improvements in clinically relevant exploratory endpoints through week 36, including slowing ALS disease progression (p=0.0125), decreasing the proportion of participants with an ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) 6-point decline (p=0.035), and improving quality of life as measured by the ALS Specific Quality of Life (ALSSQOL-SF) (p=0.018). In addition, RESCUE-ALS showed evidence for a potential long-term survival benefit from CNM-Au8 when comparing the observed survival of the trial population to the predicted survival, based on the validated ENCALS model. Overall, CNM-Au8 was found to be well-tolerated through 36 weeks of oral daily dosing.

Launched Second FDA Expanded Access Program for People living with ALS

A second U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expanded access program (CNMAu8.EAP02) was launched with CNM-Au8 for people living with ALS. This expanded access program will be implemented in conjunction with the Healey ALS Platform Trial and is designed to provide people with ALS who are not eligible to enroll in the Healey ALS Platform Trial access to CNM-Au8.

CNM-Au8 for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) and Parkinson’s disease (PD)

Reported blinded interim update from VISIONARY-MS

VISIONARY-MS is a double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 as a remyelinating and neuro-reparative treatment in stable relapsing MS (RMS) patients. Blinded analyses compared changes in the overall study population's modified Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (mod-MSFC) values over the 48-week treatment period to the baseline values of study participants with mild disease, as defined by pre-treatment Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores of 1.5 or less. Changes in the four modified-MSFC sub-scales (low contrast letter acuity (LCLA), symbol digit modalities test (SDMT), 9-hole peg test (9HPT), and timed 25-foot walk test (T25FWT)) were compared to baseline scores of the mild disease comparator group at each 12-week study time-point (Weeks 12, 24, 36, and 48). At each visit, the overall study population (randomized 2:1, active CNM-Au8 to placebo) showed increasing improvements in mean standardized change for LCLA (primary endpoint, mixed-effects model; p<0.0001 vs. baseline), average MSFC scores (secondary endpoint, mixed-effects model; p<0.0001 vs. baseline), and other MSFC sub-scales. These data support CNM-Au8’s potential to drive meaningful neurological improvements in stable RMS patients. Unblinded topline data are anticipated in the first half of 2023.

Reported positive top-line results from the Phase 2 REPAIR clinical trials

The objective of the REPAIR clinical trial program was to demonstrate the effects of Clene’s catalytically-active nanotherapeutic, CNM-Au8, on brain energy metabolites in two sister studies of patients with Parkinson’s disease (REPAIR-PD) and multiple sclerosis (REPAIR-MS). Patients were imaged using 31-phosphorous magnetic resonance spectroscopy, an innovative non-invasive brain imaging technique, before and after 12 weeks of daily oral dosing with CNM-Au8. The results for the primary endpoint, the mean change in the brain NAD+/NADH ratio (the ratio of the oxidized to reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), demonstrated a statistically significant increase by an average of 0.589 units (10.4%) following 12-weeks of treatment with CNM-Au8 (p=0.037, paired t-test), in the pre-specified integrated analysis of the REPAIR-PD and REPAIR-MS studies. Key secondary endpoints, mean change from baseline in the NAD+ fraction and NADH fraction of the total NAD pool, were concordant with the primary endpoint, demonstrating the NAD+ fraction increased (p=0.026), while the NADH fraction decreased (p=0.026). The individual results for these sister studies demonstrated consistent statistical trends toward improvement in the NAD+/NADH ratio with results of p=0.11 and p=0.14, for REPAIR-PD and REPAIR-MS, respectively. Collectively, these results provide clinical proof-of-mechanism and support the potential of CNM-Au8 to drive meaningful neurological functional improvements in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. REPAIR-PD study results were subsequently presented at the International Parkinson and Movement Disorders Society (MDS) Virtual Congress 2021 meeting in September 2021 and REPAIR-MS results were subsequently presented at the 37th Congress of the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS) in October 2021.

Corporate Highlights:

Manufacturing Facility

In August, Clene completed two lease agreements that will more than quadruple the company’s manufacturing capacity. The first agreement is a ten-year lease for approximately 75,000 sq. ft. of manufacturing space in Elkton, Maryland, which will be redeveloped to support Clene’s proprietary electrochemical processes and will materially increase its manufacturing capacity in preparation for the expected data release in H1 2022 from its Phase 3 registration trial evaluating CNM-Au8 as a treatment for ALS

The second agreement is for a seven-year lease to further expand its existing manufacturing capacity at its site in North East, Maryland to a total of approximately 33,000 sq. ft. This expansion enables additional R&D and manufacturing capacity for CNM-Au8 and further positions Clene to address its potential long-term needs.

Financing Agreements

In September 2021, Clene borrowed an additional $5.0 million under its Loan and Security Agreement with Avenue Venture Opportunities Fund, L.P., a fund of the Avenue Capital Group. The Loan Agreement provides for term loans in an aggregate principal amount up to $30 million, with up to $20 million committed between May 24, 2021, and December 31, 2021, and up to a further $10 million funded between January 1, 2022, and June 30, 2022. To date, Clene has received $20 million of gross proceeds under the Loan Agreement.

Expert Perspectives Webinar

On July 14, 2021, Clene hosted an expert perspectives webinar entitled: “Cellular Energetic Failure: Addressing Unmet Needs and a New Investigational Treatment for ALS and MS.” The webinar featured presentations by two experts: Professor of Neurology Matthew Kiernan, PhD, DSc, FRACP, FAHMS, AM, MBBS and Professor of Neurology Benjamin Greenberg, MD, MHS, FANA, FAAN, CRND, who discussed the current treatment landscape and unmet medical needs in ALS and multiple sclerosis.

Anticipated 2021 Milestones:

  • HEALEY ALS Platform Trial full enrollment: 2H 2021

  • Phase 2 CNM-ZnAg COVID-19 topline data: 1H 2022

  • Initiation of Phase 2 RESCUE-PD efficacy trial: 2H 2021

Third Quarter 2021 and Financial Results

Cash Position:

Clene’s cash and restricted cash totaled approximately $60.6 million as of September 30, 2021, compared to approximately $59.3 million as of December 31, 2020. The increase in cash and restricted cash through the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to approximately $25.0 million of net cash used in operating activities; $0.7 million of net cash used in investing activities; and $27.1 million of net cash provided by financing activities. Included in net cash provided by financing activities is approximately $9.3 million of net proceeds from a PIPE offering in May 2021 and approximately $19.5 million of net proceeds to date from a venture loan agreement which we entered into in May 2021. Clene expects that its cash as of September 30, 2021 will be sufficient to fund its operations for a period extending beyond twelve months from the date the September 30, 2021 condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

R&D Expenses:

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were approximately $6.1 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to $4.0 million for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year increase is primarily attributable to (i) the progression of Clene’s drug candidates through the clinical development process, including increased enrollment into the REPAIR-PD and the REPAIR-MS studies, and calendar payments due for Clene’s participation in the HEALEY-ALS Platform Trial; and (ii) $0.9 million of share-based expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards included in R&D expenses.

G&A Expenses:

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were approximately $4.4 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1.8 million for the same period in 2020. The year-over-year increase is primarily attributable to (i) increased professional expenses, public company expenses, legal fees, accounting fees, tax fees, and director and officer insurance expenses as a result of Clene becoming a public company on December 30, 2020; and (ii) $1.6 million of share-based expense related to stock options and restricted stock awards included in G&A expenses.

Net Loss:

Clene’s loss from operations was approximately $10.5 million and $5.7 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Clene reported net income of approximately $28.9 million, or $0.47 per share (basic) and $0.42 per share (diluted), for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, compared to a net loss of approximately $10.3 million, or $0.59 per share (basic and diluted), for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020. Included in net income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 is an unrealized gain from the change in fair value of contingent earn-out liabilities of $38.5 million.

About RESCUE-ALS

RESCUE-ALS is a Phase 2 multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial examining the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CNM-Au8 in patients with early amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The trial completed enrollment in the second half of 2020. In the trial, 45 subjects were randomized 1:1 to receive either active treatment with CNM-Au8 (30 mg) or placebo in addition to their current standard of care over a 36-week treatment period. The objective of the trial is to assess the impact of CNM-Au8 on disease progression in patients with early-stage ALS through changes in motor unit index MUNIX. MUNIX values were evaluated for four muscles in the hand, arm, and leg: the abductor digiti minimi, abductor pollicis brevis, tibialis anterior and biceps brachii from baseline through 36 weeks of treatment. CNM-Au8 was selected by FightMND of Australia, and Clene was provided a substantial grant to investigate efficacy in ALS utilizing novel neurophysiological endpoints at two clinical sites in Australia. For more information, please see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04098406.

About the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial

The HEALEY ALS Platform trial is a perpetual multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration program designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multiple investigational products in early symptomatic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients. Funded by philanthropic donors and led by Harvard’s Massachusetts General Hospital, HEALEY is the first-ever ALS platform trial designed to reduce trial time, costs, and increase patient participation in developing novel therapies. This landmark platform trial tests multiple treatments utilizing a combined placebo group. CNM-Au8 was selected as one of the first three drugs to be evaluated. Full enrollment of 160 patients into the CNM-Au8 portion of the study through more than 50 expert ALS U.S. clinical trial sites is expected by the end of 2021. Subjects are randomized 3:1 to receive one of three active treatments or placebo daily for a 24-week treatment period. The primary endpoint is rate of change in disease severity over time as measured by the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R). Secondary endpoints include change in respiratory function over time as measured by slow vital capacity and change in muscle strength over time as measured isometrically using hand-held dynamometry. Topline data are expected in 1H 2022. For more information, please see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04297683.

About VISIONARY-MS

VISIONARY-MS is a Phase 2 multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8 for remyelination and neurorepair in stable relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with chronic visual impairment. 150 participants are being enrolled at expert MS clinical trial sites within Australia, Canada, and the United States. Subjects are randomized 1:1:1 (high-dose:low-dose:placebo). The primary endpoint is improvement in Low Contrast Letter Acuity (LCLA) from baseline to week-24. Key secondary endpoints include improvements from baseline to week-24 in the remaining modified-Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) subscales (Symbol Digit Modalities Test, 9-Hole Peg Test, and Timed 25-Foot Walk). Interim blinded data presented at the ACTRIMS Forum 2021 demonstrated exposure-dependent, statistically significant improvements in both LCLA scores and across the averaged components of the modified MSFC scale for the study population in comparison to baseline values from the mildest sub-population (p<0.001). Subject to ongoing pandemic-related research restrictions at MS clinical trial sites, enrollment will advance through 2021. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03536559.

About REPAIR-MS and REPAIR-PD

REPAIR-MS and REPAIR-PD are Phase 2 single-center, active-only, sequential group studies examining the brain metabolic effects, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CNM-Au8 in patients who have been diagnosed with MS within 15 years of screening or in patients with PD who have been diagnosed within three years of screening. Investigators and participants are blinded to dose. Participants received orally delivered CNM-Au8 daily each morning for 12 weeks. Participants undergo 31P-MRS brain imaging scans to semi-quantitatively measure central nervous system (CNS) energetic metabolites at baseline, prior to administration of drug, and at the end-of-study following at least 12 weeks of exposure to CNM-Au8. The objective of these studies is to demonstrate target engagement for CNM-Au8 on CNS biomarkers related to energetics and neuronal membrane stability in patients with MS and PD. The study was conducted at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center with a team of internationally recognized experts in brain imaging and treatment of disorders of the CNS. Collectively, these results provide clinical proof-of-mechanism and support the potential of CNM-Au8 to drive meaningful neurological functional improvements in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. For more information see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT039993171 and NCT03815916.

About CNM-Au8®, a gold nanocrystal suspension

Clene’s lead drug candidate, CNM-Au8, a catalytically active gold nanotherapeutic, is the result of a patented manufacturing breakthrough. The catalytically active nanocrystals of CNM-Au8 drive critical cellular energy producing reactions in the brain that enable neuroprotection and remyelination by increasing neuronal and glial resilience to disease-relevant stressors. CNM-Au8 crosses the blood-brain barrier and is not associated with the toxicities related to synthetic gold compounds or nanoparticles manufactured via alternative methods. CNM-Au8 is being evaluated in a Phase 3 registration trial for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In the REPAIR Program Phase 2 open-label biomarker clinical trials, CNM-Au8 demonstrated target engagement in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and multiple sclerosis (MS). REPAIR-PD has concluded, and REPAIR-MS will continue with the initiation of a second MS dosing cohort. Preclinical data, both published in peer-reviewed journals and presented at scientific congresses, demonstrate that treatment of neuronal cultures with CNM-Au8 improves survival of neurons, protects neurite networks, decreases intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and improves mitochondrial capacity in response to cellular stresses induced by numerous disease-relevant neurotoxins. Oral treatment with CNM-Au8 improved functional behaviors in rodent models of ALS, MS and PD versus vehicle (placebo). CNM-Au8® is a federally registered trademark of Clene Nanomedicine, Inc.
