ZUG, Switzerland, Dec. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pharvaris (Nasdaq: PHVS), a clinical-stage company developing novel, oral bradykinin-B2-receptor antagonists to treat and prevent hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022, and provided a business update.

“The results of the RAPIDe-1 study affirm our confidence in our clinical development program in HAE,” said Berndt Modig, Chief Executive Officer of Pharvaris. “Pharvaris is fully committed to resolving the clinical holds on PHA121 in the U.S., and we appreciate the opportunity to meet with the FDA in the recent Type A meeting and to work with the agency on next steps. To date, the regulatory status for our studies outside the U.S. remains unchanged. Top-line data from CHAPTER-1, a proof-of-concept study of PHVS416 for the prophylactic treatment of HAE, is anticipated in the second half of 2023. Pharvaris has a strong financial position and will continue to operate with a disciplined approach as we aspire to bring best-in-class oral therapies to the HAE community.”

Recent Business Updates

• Announcement of positive RAPIDe-1 data. Today Pharvaris announced top-line Phase 2 data demonstrating statistically significant results of PHVS416 as an oral on-demand treatment for HAE attacks. Additional details can be found in the news release.
• Pharvaris continues to engage with the FDA to resolve the holds on PHA121 clinical trials in the U.S. Following the previously announced receipt of the formal letters regarding the holds on PHA121 clinical trials in the U.S., Pharvaris attended a Type A meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). During the meeting, Pharvaris proposed potential paths to resolve the clinical holds for each of the on-demand and prophylactic programs. The company will provide additional information following receipt of the formal meeting minutes.
• CHAPTER-1, a global Phase 2 study of PHVS416 for the prophylactic treatment of HAE attacks, top-line data is anticipated 2H2023. All active sites outside of the U.S. continue to enroll participants in the CHAPTER-1 clinical study. After being notified of the clinical holds in the U.S., Pharvaris notified country-specific regulatory authorities in Canada, Europe, Israel, and the UK regarding the clinical holds in the U.S. To date, the regulatory status of the CHAPTER-1 study outside the U.S. remains unchanged. Based on our current assumptions regarding ex-U.S. regulatory status and enrollment, Pharvaris anticipates announcing top-line data from the CHAPTER-1 trial in 2H2023. The study is designed to enroll 30 patients globally with a goal of evaluating proof of concept of PHVS416 as an oral prophylaxis against HAE attacks. The safety and efficacy of two doses and placebo will be evaluated by comparing the number of investigator-confirmed attacks during participants’ 12-week treatment period. Data from this proof-of-concept study is expected to inform design of an anticipated Phase 3 study utilizing PHVS719, an extended-release formulation of PHA121.
• Presentations of preclinical and clinical data supporting development of PH121 at industry meetings. Data detailing PHA121’s pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) and safety profile, as well as initial bioavailability and absorption data for the softgel capsule formulation, PHVS416, and extended-release tablet formulation, PHVS719, were presented at the Bradykinin Symposium in September, the HAEi Global Leadership Workshop in October, and the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in November. In healthy volunteer clinical studies, PHA121 was shown to be well-tolerated with a favorable PK/PD profile up to the highest dose tested. PHVS416 has been shown to achieve a rapid onset of exposure in humans, which is desirable for the on-demand treatment of HAE. PHVS719 has been shown to sustain therapeutic exposure, which supports its use in the prophylactic treatment of HAE.
• Strengthened Executive Committee. With the promotion of Annick Deschoolmeester to Chief Human Resources Officer, Pharvaris continues to strengthen its Executive Committee. Since joining Pharvaris as the Head of Human Resources in September 2021, Ms. Deschoolmeester has had a substantial impact on the organization and has been instrumental in positioning Pharvaris for its next stage in scale and impact.
