WALTHAM, Mass., Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Q32 Bio Inc. (Nasdaq: QTTB) ("Q32 Bio"), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing innovative therapies for alopecia areata (AA) and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and provided recent corporate updates.

"This quarter, we continued to execute across our bempikibart development program with patient dosing underway and enrollment on-track in both the Part A OLE and Part B portions of the Phase 2a SIGNAL-AA trial," said Jodie Morrison, Chief Executive Officer of Q32 Bio. "We strengthened our leadership team with the addition of Adrien Sipos, M.D., Ph.D., as Interim Chief Medical Officer, whose immunology and inflammation drug development expertise will be invaluable as we advance bempikibart through key stages of development. We remain ever-focused on advancing bempikibart for patients with alopecia areata and are on track to deliver topline data from Part B in the first half of next year while extending our cash runway into 2027."

Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Business Highlights

• Dosing of patients in Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is ongoing, with topline data readout on-track for the first half of 2026. Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is an open-label clinical trial evaluating bempikibart, a fully human anti-IL-7R伪 antibody designed to re-regulate adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signaling, in patients with severe or very severe AA. The ongoing trial will dose approximately 20 evaluable patients with severe or very severe AA with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with follow-up out to 52 weeks. Dosing includes an initial loading regimen of 200mg of bempikibart dosed weekly over four weeks, followed by a maintenance dose of 200mg every-other-week over a 32-week period for a total dosing period of 36 weeks. Efficacy will be evaluated on the basis of mean percentage change from baseline in Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores as well as the proportion of subjects achieving various relative and absolute SALT improvements at week 36, with follow-up through week 52. The trial is intended to support advancement into pivotal trials upon completion, pending review of the results. Q32 Bio expects to report topline results in the first half of 2026.
  
  
• Dosing of patients in Part A OLE of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is ongoing. Based on the continued emergence of bempikibart data suggesting a remittive effect and durable responses in long-term follow-up from SIGNAL-AA Part A, as well as re-consent rates and strong patient demand for continued dosing, Q32 Bio initiated an OLE for eligible patients that completed Part A to enable longer-term follow-up of patients. Patient dosing is ongoing.
  
  
• Adrien Sipos, M.D., Ph.D., as Interim Chief Medical Officer. Dr. Sipos is an immunologist and seasoned Immunology and Inflammation (I&I) drug developer, with over 25 years of clinical development and medical affairs leadership experience.
  
  
• to bempikibart for the treatment of AA. Fast Track is a process designed to facilitate the development and expedite the review of new drugs to treat serious diseases and fill an unmet medical need with the purpose of getting important new drugs to patients earlier. Filling an unmet medical need is defined as providing a therapy where either none exists or providing a therapy which may be potentially better than available therapies. A drug that receives FTD may be eligible for more frequent meetings and communications with the FDA to discuss development plans and ensure the collection of appropriate data needed to support approval and for a rolling review of an application for marketing approval. Drugs receiving FTD may also be eligible for Accelerated Approval and Priority Review if relevant criteria are met.

Financial Results

• Cash and cash equivalents were $54.8 million as of June 30, 2025. Q32 Bio believes its cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to fund operations into 2027, through the SIGNAL-AA OLE and topline results of the SIGNAL-AA Part B trial evaluating bempikibart in patients with AA expected in the first half of 2026.
  
  
• Research and development expenses were $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in expense of $8.2 million was primarily due to lower bempikibart development costs including clinical and manufacturing spend, as well as lower direct research and development expenses related to ADX-097 and lower personnel-related costs due to the discontinuation of the ADX-097 Phase 2 clinical trial and restructuring announced in February 2025 as compared to the prior year.
  
  
• General and administrative expenses were $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in expense of $0.5 million was primarily due to lower personnel-related costs as a result of reduced headcount associated with the restructuring in February 2025 as well as lower legal costs as compared to the prior year.
  
  
• Net loss was $9.5 million, or $0.78 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net loss of $17.0 million, or $1.42 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

About 700,000 people in the United States live with alopecia areata¹, a disease which has a life-altering impact on patients and limited current treatment options. Q32 Bio is advancing bempikibart (ADX-914), a fully human anti-IL-7R伪 antibody that re-regulates adaptive immune function, for the treatment of alopecia areata in an ongoing Phase 2 program. The IL-7 and TSLP pathways have been genetically and biologically implicated in driving several T cell-mediated pathological processes in numerous autoimmune diseases.
