SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., March 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aligos Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGS), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel therapeutics to address unmet medical needs in viral and liver diseases, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020 and provided an overview of recent business highlights.
"Last year was a transformative year for Aligos,” said Larry Blatt, PhD, MBA, CEO of Aligos. “During 2020, we became both a well-financed public company, via our $167.2 million IPO, as well as a clinical stage company by advancing our first two CHB assets, ALG-010133 and ALG-000184, into the clinic. This year is on track to be similarly impactful for Aligos as we expect to generate important proof of activity data in CHB patients for both ALG-010133 and ALG-000184 as well as advancing two more assets, ALG-020572 and ALG-055009, into the clinic.”
“The advancement of these four drug candidates towards and in the clinic this year represents the culmination of three years of hard work by all of our employees,” noted Leo Beigelman, PhD, President of Aligos. “We look forward to seeing the clinical results of these efforts.”
Recent Business Highlights
Aligos Portfolio of Drug Candidates:
ALG-010133 (an S-antigen Transport-inhibiting Oligonucleotide Polymer (STOPS™) molecule that is designed to decrease hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) levels)
Single and multiple ascending dose (SAD/MAD) evaluation in healthy volunteers (HV) was completed generating data supportive of commencing dosing in CHB patients.
Enrollment of CHB patients is ongoing. The study is evaluating 12 weeks of once weekly subcutaneous ALG-010133/placebo dosing in virologically suppressed CHB patients. Safety and antiviral data from the initial cohort(s) is expected in the second half of 2021.
ALG-000184 is a small molecule class II capsid assembly modulator (CAM) that is designed to target hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid assembly, resulting in decreased HBV DNA/RNA levels, as well as the establishment of covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA)
SAD/MAD evaluation in HV was completed generating data supportive of commencing dosing in CHB patients.
Screening in CHB patients has commenced. The study is evaluating 28 days of once daily oral dosing of ALG-000184 or placebo in treatment naïve/currently not treated patients. Safety and antiviral data from the initial cohort(s) expected in the second half of 2021.
