Antibe Therapeutics Reports Q1 2023 Interim Financial and Operating Results

- Phase II acute pain program to initiate in September

- Ended quarter with $50 million in cash and equivalents, providing over two years of runway

Antibe Therapeutics Inc. (TSX: ATE, OTCQX: ATBPF), a clinical stage company leveraging its hydrogen sulfide platform to develop next-generation safer therapies that target inflammation, has filed its financial and operating results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022.

“We are really pleased with our progress,” commented Dan Legault, Antibe’s CEO. “The data we’ve collected supports otenaproxesul’s target profile as a GI-safe, non-opioid oral analgesic for acute pain – a multi-billion dollar market devoid of innovation and in great need of novel therapies. We’re particularly excited to launch the Phase II molar extraction study next month, enabling us to collect data in post-operative patients for the first time. The results of this study should allow us to identify the optimal dosing regimens for the larger Phase II bunionectomy trial next year.”

Business Highlights and Operational Update

Preparations on track for otenaproxesul’s Phase II program for acute pain

  • Completed loading dose pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (“PK/PD”) study in the quarter; results suggest viable onset of action for acute pain relief
  • Upcoming Phase II molar (wisdom tooth) extraction study to obtain PK/PD data and exploratory pain endpoints in post-operative patients – study to initiate in September with results expected by January 2023
  • Ongoing investigation of alternative treatment regimens as a potential path forward for chronic indications

Inflammatory bowel disease program nearing lead selection

  • Identified three additional promising candidates for inflammatory bowel disease program – lead candidate to be chosen next quarter

Corporate and governance

  • Signed binding agreement to sell Citagenix in a $6.5 million all-cash transaction, including milestones
  • Appointed Robert E. Hoffman as new Board Chair; former Chair, Walt Macnee, and Antibe’s founder, Dr. John L. Wallace, appointed as corporate Vice Chairs

The following summarizes the Company’s estimated timeline for its key upcoming milestones:

  • Phase II third molar extraction trial initiation – calendar Q3 2022
  • Identify lead candidate for inflammatory bowel disease – calendar Q4 2022
  • Phase II third molar extraction trial results – early calendar Q1 2023
  • Phase II bunionectomy trial initiation – calendar H1 2023
