WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to protect the vulnerable from serious viral infectious diseases, today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, and recent business highlights.
“I am immensely proud of our team and their remarkable performance throughout the third quarter. In September, less than six months after initiating a Phase 1 clinical trial, we announced we had dosed the first participant in CANOPY, our Phase 3 pivotal clinical trial investigating VYD222 for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19. Today we are pleased to announce that we have completed enrollment in the CANOPY trial and continue to expect to have initial primary endpoint data in late 2023 or early Q1 2024,” said Dave Hering, Chief Executive Officer of Invivyd. “Given the urgent unmet medical need, we continue to aim to submit an application for EUA to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as soon as practicable.”
Mr. Hering added, “In preparation for a potential EUA, we have been engaged in commercial planning for an anticipated market entry of VYD222 in 2024. With an estimated total addressable market of more than 9 million immunocompromised individuals in the U.S., our teams have been developing and refining our strategy, which will initially focus on serving the highest risk immunocompromised people. Furthermore, we continue to have constructive dialogue with the FDA regarding potential pathways that would enable us to fully leverage our INVYMAB platform approach to rapidly and perpetually deliver monoclonal antibody candidates designed to keep pace with viral evolution.”

About CANOPY
The CANOPY pivotal clinical trial is an ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial designed to evaluate protection against symptomatic COVID-19 after receiving VYD222. The safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic profile, and immunogenicity of VYD222 will also be evaluated. In November 2023, Invivyd announced the completion of enrollment in the CANOPY clinical trial, with approximately 750 participants enrolled in two cohorts (A and B) across multiple trial sites in the U.S. Cohort A enrolled approximately 300 participants who are significantly immunocompromised. For this cohort, the company will use serum neutralizing titers against relevant SARS-CoV-2 variants at Day 28 as the primary efficacy endpoint, which will be calculated based on the pharmacokinetic concentration of VYD222 from the immunocompromised participants and the IC50 value for VYD222 against relevant SARS-CoV-2 variants. The primary efficacy analysis will use an immunobridging approach comparing data obtained in the CANOPY clinical trial to certain historical data from the company’s previous Phase 2/3 clinical trial of adintrevimab for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19, in which serum neutralizing titers correlated with observed clinical efficacy. All Cohort A participants received VYD222 administered via intravenous (IV) infusion.
Cohort B enrolled approximately 450 participants at risk of exposure to SARS-CoV-2. The primary endpoint is safety and tolerability. Cohort B participants were randomized 2:1 to receive VYD222 or placebo administered via IV infusion.
Invivyd is evaluating the 4500 mg dose of VYD222 in the CANOPY clinical trial. The company expects to have initial primary endpoint data by late 2023 or early Q1 2024.
About VYD222
VYD222 is a broadly neutralizing, half-life extended monoclonal antibody (mAb) candidate in development for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19 in vulnerable populations, such as immunocompromised people. Globally, there are millions of immunocompromised people, with more than 9 million in the U.S. alone who may not adequately respond to COVID-19 vaccination, increasing their risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19. Currently, there are no monoclonal antibodies authorized or approved in the U.S. for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19. VYD222 was designed for broad activity and has demonstrated in vitro neutralizing activity against various pre-Omicron and Omicron variants, such as XBB.1.5, XBB.1.16, and XBB.1.5.10, an Omicron variant that has the same spike glycoprotein sequence as EG.5. VYD222 was engineered from adintrevimab, Invivyd’s investigational mAb that has a robust safety data package and demonstrated clinically meaningful results in global Phase 2/3 clinical trials for both the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
