Taken together, we anticipate that these trials will help the company optimize the clinical development strategies underpinning our multiple FHAB platform-based bispecific immunotherapy candidates."

"We remain focused on an effective financing strategy to help advance Sonnet’s growth and we are excited to continue our work with the FHAB technology, which we believe carries significant value for oncology therapeutic development," commented Jay Cross, CFO.

FY 2022 Third Quarter and Recent Corporate Updates

Sonnet provided the following corporate updates:

Initiated a second Phase 1 clinical trial of SON-1010 (IL12-FHAB), based on the successful initiation of the first two cohorts in the first-in-human (FIH) dose-escalation trial (SB101) in patients with advanced solid tumors; initial safety and tolerability data from the SB101 and SB102 studies expected during the calendar fourth quarter of this year; initial PK and PD data from both studies should also be available before the end of 2022
Initiated a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial of SON-080; this new study (SB211) will be conducted at multiple sites in Australia in patients with persistent chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN); initial safety data from this study are expected during the first half of 2023
Announced positive data from a preclinical combination study of SON-1010 with a commercially available anti-PD1 compound; combination increased survival rate in the study
Completion of the non-human primate (NHP) toxicology studies with SON-1210 is anticipated by the end of 2022; we expect to initiate the regulatory authorization process in the first half of 2023
Completed sequence confirmation for SON-3015 and preparing for initial in vivo mice studies during the calendar fourth quarter of this year
FY 2022 Third Quarter Ended June 30, 2022 Financial Results

As of June 30, 2022, Sonnet had $5.2 million cash on hand.
Research and development expenses were $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $1.8 million was primarily due to increased expenditures for the development of the cell lines for IL12-FHAB, IL12-FHAB-IL15 and SON-080 in connection with the initiation of a Phase 1 clinical trial for SON-1010 and preparation for a Phase 1b/2a pilot-scale efficacy study with SON-080 in CIPN, the milestone payment incurred in connection with the XOMA Collaboration Agreement, and an increase in payroll expense as we continue to develop our product candidates.
General and administrative expenses were $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $0.1 million related primarily to a decrease in share-based compensation expense as a result of the restricted stock units issued in 2020 becoming fully vested at the beginning of April 2022 and a decrease in payroll expense as certain executives devoted more of their time to research and development activities, partially offset by an increase in consulting and professional fees.

"We are encouraged by the increase in enrollment in our NEXI-001 trial and look forward to providing a clinical update in fourth quarter," said Kristi Jones, Chief Executive Officer. "The FDA has recently cleared the NEXI-003 IND, enabling us to advance our first solid tumor program in HPV-related malignancies and we plan to initiate the study before year end. Due to resource prioritization, and the evolving treatment landscape in relapsed refractory multiple myeloma, we plan to pause enrollment of NEXI-002 and provide an update on patients currently being treated. In parallel, we continue to make progress on our IND-enabling work for the AIM injectable modality, an ‘off-the-shelf’ multi-antigen specific approach to treating malignancies and autoimmune diseases, which we believe has the potential to be disruptive. We will provide an update on these early programs through the end of year. We continue to focus on generating data and demonstrating the potential of our ‘IND engine’ to enable a rapid path to clinical development and look forward to providing updates on our progress and upcoming catalysts."

Select Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights

Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities for the Company as of June 30, 2022 were $53.1 million compared to $65.0 million for the quarter ending March 31, 2022. Based on current operating plans, NexImmune expects that its existing cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will enable the Company to fund its operating and capital expenditure requirements into the second quarter of 2023.

Research and development expenses were $11.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $8.1 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase in research and development expenses was mainly attributable to costs for the two ongoing clinical trials, as well as personnel-related expenses driven by increased headcount.

General and administrative expenses were $4.1 million, compared to $4.0 million for the same period in the prior year. The slight increase was primarily due to increased fees related to professional and consulting services offset by reductions in personnel-related expenses.

Net loss, according to generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (GAAP), was $15.9 million for the quarter, or a basic and diluted GAAP loss per share of $0.69. This compares to a net loss of $12.2 million, or a basic and diluted GAAP loss per share of $0.54, for the same period in the prior year.

EQ101 – Phase 2 study in alopecia areata initiation expected 2H 2022
EQ102 – Phase 1 study in normal healthy volunteers (NHV) and celiac disease patients expected to initiate in 2H 2022
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the second quarter of 2022 were $9.5 million, compared with $6.0 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to greater clinical development expenses, driven by start-up costs related to the Phase 3 EQUATOR study.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2022 were $4.1 million, compared with $2.9 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher legal fees related to business development activities and greater employee compensation and consulting costs.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $14.1 million, or $(0.41) per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $9.2 million, or $(0.31) per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2021. The increase in net loss was largely attributable to greater operating expenses.

Cash used in operations for the second quarter of 2022 was $11.3 million compared to $12.1 million in the first quarter of 2022. Key drivers of the quarter-over-quarter decrease in cash used in operations include payments made in the first quarter of 2022 related to 2021 annual bonuses and the Bioniz acquisition.

Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $57.6 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $68.8 million as of March 31, 2022. Equillium believes that its cash and investments, together with its existing and available committed equity line, are sufficient to fund its operations for at least the next 12 months.

About Itolizumab

Itolizumab is a clinical-stage, first-in-class anti-CD6 monoclonal antibody that selectively targets the CD6-ALCAM pathway. This pathway plays a central role in modulating the activity and trafficking of T cells that drive a number of immuno-inflammatory diseases. Equillium acquired rights to itolizumab through an exclusive partnership with Biocon Limited.

About Multi-Cytokine Platform: EQ101 & EQ102

Our proprietary multi-cytokine platform (MCP) 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 provides multi-cytokine inhibition at the receptor level and is expected to avoid the broad immuno-suppression and off-target safety liabilities that may be associated with other therapeutic classes, such as JAK 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 MCP assets include EQ101, a first-in-class, tri-specific inhibitor of IL-2, IL-9 and IL-15, and EQ102, a first-in-class, selective inhibitor of IL-15 and IL-21.
