Equillium Announces Data from Phase 1b EQUALISE Study Presented at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Nephrology

Itolizumab continues to show clinically meaningful response in highly proteinuric subjects

At Week 28, 73% of subjects achieved >50% reduction in urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR)

Itolizumab demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile

 

LA JOLLA, California, November 6, 2023 - Equillium, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQ), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing novel therapeutics to treat severe autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, today announced that data from the Type B portion of the EQUALISE study in lupus nephritis patients was presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Nephrology (ASN). The data highlights that subjects had high complete and partial response rates with rapid and deep reduction in urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR) when itolizumab was added to mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and corticosteroids.

 

“The presentation at ASN represents current data from the EQUALISE study, which includes all but the last patient in the follow up period,” said Bruce Steel, chief executive officer at Equillium. “We are encouraged that we continue to see clinically meaningful response rates, particularly in these highly proteinuric subjects. While the study is largely complete, we plan to deliver the full data package to Ono Pharmaceutical under the terms of our strategic partnership in early 2024.”

 

“I’m excited that we saw both early and deep reductions in proteinuria,” said Dr. Maple Fung, chief medical officer at Equillium. “Physicians are looking for a treatment that can safely and rapidly reduce the levels of proteinuria in patients, as this is historically associated with improved long-term outcomes. The data from the EQUALISE study demonstrates that subjects had high complete and partial response rates and tolerated well the subcutaneous injections every two weeks; this is in the setting of tapering their systemic corticosteroids, maintaining stable kidney function, or eGFR, and increasing serum albumin while on study.”

 

The Type B portion of the EQUALISE study in patients with active proliferative LN (apLN) is evaluating the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of subcutaneous delivery of itolizumab. Patients must present with greater than 1 gram of proteinuria and have a recent kidney biopsy showing ISN/RPS class III or IV apLN to be eligible for the study. During the 24-week treatment period, patients receive a subcutaneous dose of 1.6 mg/kg every two weeks, with follow up out to 36 weeks. Consistent with standard of care, patients on study also receive 2-3 g/day of mycophenolate mofetil/mycophenolic acid (MMF/MPA), and patients may receive pulse systemic corticosteroids that are rapidly tapered.

 

A total of 17 subjects have been enrolled in the study, with 15 subjects reaching Week 28 (4 weeks following the final dose, or the end of study (EOS)). Based on published guidelines for the management of lupus nephritis from the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) and European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA), clinical activity assessments in this study are focused on the change in UPCR from baseline; proportion of apLN subjects with a complete response (CR), defined as 50% or greater reduction in UPCR and less than 0.5-0.7 g/g; and proportion of subjects achieving a partial response (PR), defined as 50% or greater reduction in UPCR.

 


Exhibit 99.1

img162018617_0.jpg 

 

 

Key findings from analysis of the Type B portion of the EQUALISE study in lupus nephritis:

Subjects were highly proteinuric: baseline mean UPCR of 4.9 g/g
Percent reduction from baseline in median spot UPCR is ~73%
Clinically meaningful responses were observed:
o
By week 28 (EOS):
6 of 15 (40%) subjects achieved CR (UPCR < 0.7 g/g)
Additional 5 of 15 (33%) subjects achieved PR (UPCR > 50% reduction)
There was a greater overall response rate (ORR) achieved in patients receiving itolizumab by 12 and 28 weeks than expected compared to the ORR in patients receiving standard of care alone using data generated from the Accelerating Medicines Partnership® (AMP) Lupus Network. Results are comparable to those observed in the Phase 3 AURORA1 study of voclosporin (ORR 70% at 6 and 12 months in active treatment).
Consistent with the decline in UPCR overtime, subjects were able to taper their systemic corticosteroids over the course of the study.
Itolizumab induced consistent pharmacodynamic responses in patients reducing the levels of cell surface CD6 on T cells, which is known to reduce T cell activity.
Itolizumab treatment (over 6 months) was also associated with reductions in absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC), another known pharmacodynamic effect.
As noted in other studies of drugs whose mechanism leads to reductions in ALC, such as the S1P modulators, the reduction in ALC observed here was not associated with increased rates of infection or other adverse clinical signals.
77% of TEAEs were assessed as mild (Grade 1) or moderate (Grade 2) by the investigators. Two subjects had at least one serious adverse event.

 

The poster presentation is available on the Presentations page of Equillium’s website under the Lupus tab.

 

About Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) & Lupus Nephritis (LN)
SLE is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks its own tissues, causing widespread inflammation and tissue damage in the affected organs. It can affect the joints, skin, brain, lungs, kidneys, and blood vessels. LN is a serious complication of SLE, occurring in approximately 30% – 60% of individuals with SLE. LN involves the body’s own immune system attacking the kidneys, causing inflammation and significantly reducing kidney function over time. LN is associated with an increase in mortality compared with the general population and may lead to end-stage renal disease.

 

About the EQUALISE Study
The EQUALISE study is a two-part Phase 1b open-label proof-of-concept study of itolizumab in patients with SLE and LN. The Type A portion of the study was a multiple ascending-dose clinical study evaluating the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous delivery of itolizumab over a two-week treatment period in 35 patients with SLE. The Type B portion of the study, is evaluating the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of subcutaneous delivery of itolizumab dosed at 1.6 mg/kg every two weeks over a 24-week treatment period in patients with active proliferative LN.

Equillium Reports Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides Corporate and Clinical Updates

$46.3 million in cash at the end of Q3 2023 expected to provide operating runway into 2025

$1.9 million of cash used in operating activities in Q3 2023

 

LA JOLLA, California, November 8, 2023 – Equillium, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQ), a clinical-stage biotechnology company leveraging a deep understanding of immunobiology to develop novel therapeutics to treat severe autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, today announced financial results for the third quarter 2023 and provided corporate and clinical development updates.

 

“The third quarter was focused on clinical execution and expanding education on our multi-cytokine platform and clinical programs ahead of initial data expected later this year,” said Bruce Steel, chief executive officer at Equillium. “We have completed enrollment in the Phase 1b EQUALISE study of itolizumab in patients with lupus nephritis and presented current data from that study at the annual meeting of the American Society of Nephrology earlier this month. We plan to provide the topline data to Ono in early 2024, which along with the interim review of the Phase 3 EQUATOR study in acute graft-versus-host disease, expected in 2024, comprise the data deliverables that will trigger Ono’s option decision. If Ono exercises its option, it would result in a payment of approximately $331 million and significantly extend Equillium’s cash runway. We also recently completed enrollment of the Phase 2 study of EQ101 in alopecia areata and expect to announce initial data from that study, as well as data from the SAD/MAD portion of the Phase 1 study of EQ102 before the end of the year. We believe Equillium is well positioned to create shareholder value with near-term milestones and a strong balance sheet that we expect to provide cash runway into 2025.”

 

Highlights Since Beginning of Third Quarter:

Hosted an Analyst & Investor Day featuring Arash Mostaghimi, MD, MPA, MPH, associate professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School, that highlighted Equillium’s pipeline, the multi-cytokine platform and clinical-stage multi-cytokine inhibitors, with a focus on EQ101, currently in a Phase 2 clinical trial for moderate to severe alopecia areata that is now fully-enrolled.
Announced a presentation at the 18th Annual Peptide Therapeutics Symposium highlighting EQ302, a second generation orally deliverable multi-cytokine inhibitor in development to target IL-15 and IL-21. The presentation outlined the origins of EQ302 from its parent peptide, EQ102, and data illustrating that adding hydrocarbon staples to a peptide can confer increased stability in the gastrointestinal tract while retaining its cytokine inhibitory properties​.
Announced abstracts accepted for poster presentation at the annual meetings of the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) and the American College of Rheumatology (ACR). The abstracts highlight data from 17 Type B subjects in the Phase 1b EQUALISE study in highly proteinuric lupus nephritis patients that demonstrated that subjects had high complete and partial response rates

with rapid and deep reduction in urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR) when itolizumab was added to mycophenolate mofetil and corticosteroids.

 

Anticipated Upcoming Milestones:

EQ101: Phase 2 clinical study in subjects with alopecia areata – initial data anticipated in Q4 2023, topline data anticipated in mid-2024
EQ102: Phase 1 first-in-human study in healthy volunteers and subjects with celiac disease – single ascending dose (SAD)/multiple ascending dose (MAD) data anticipated in Q4 2023, celiac disease patient data anticipated in 2024
Itolizumab: EQUALISE lupus nephritis topline data anticipated to be delivered to Ono in early 2024, EQUATOR acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) interim review anticipated in 2024

 

Third Quarter 2023 Financial Results

 

Revenue for the third quarter of 2023 was $8.9 million, which was derived from itolizumab development funding from Ono Pharmaceutical Co, Ltd. (Ono) and amortization of the upfront payment from Ono.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were $9.0 million, compared with $8.8 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to greater clinical development expenses driven by the EQUATOR, EQ101, and EQ102 clinical studies partially offset by lower costs for our other itolizumab (EQ001) studies, and further offset by a greater estimated Australian R&D tax incentive benefit, a decrease in non-clinical research expenses, and a decrease in employee compensation and benefits.

 

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the third quarter of 2023 were $3.5 million, compared with $4.5 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by lower legal fees, overhead and employee compensation and benefits, partially offset by an increase in other professional fees.

 

Net loss for the third quarter of 2023 was $3.7 million, or $(0.11) per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $13.7 million, or $(0.40) per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2022. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to revenue related to the Ono partnership recognized in the third quarter of 2023, whereas no such revenue was recorded in the third quarter of 2022 as it was prior to the Ono partnership. Lower total operating expenses, lower interest expense, and greater interest income in the third quarter of 2023 also contributed to the decrease in net loss compared to the same period last year.

 

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $46.3 million as of September 30, 2023, compared to $48.4 million as of June 30, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities in the third quarter of 2023 was $1.9 million. Equillium believes that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of September 30, 2023, including after giving effect to its stock repurchase program, will be sufficient to fund its operations into 2025.

 

About Multi-Cytokine Platform and EQ101, EQ102 & EQ302

 


img162942138_0.jpg 

 

Our proprietary multi-cytokine platform generates rationally designed composite peptides that selectively block key cytokines at the shared receptor level targeting pathogenic cytokine redundancies and synergies while preserving non-pathogenic signaling. This approach is expected to avoid the broad immuno-suppression and off-target safety liabilities that may be associated with other therapeutic classes, such as Janus kinase inhibitors. Many immune-mediated diseases are driven by the same combination of dysregulated cytokines, and we believe identifying the key cytokines for these diseases will allow us to target and develop customized treatment strategies for multiple autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

 

Current platform assets include EQ101, a first-in-class, selective, tri-specific inhibitor of IL-2, IL-9, and IL-15 for intravenous and subcutaneous delivery; EQ102, a first-in-class, selective, bi-specific inhibitor of IL-15 and IL-21 for subcutaneous delivery; EQ302, in development as a first-in-class, selective, bi-specific inhibitor of IL-15 and IL-21 for oral delivery.
