Amylyx Pharmaceuticals - Earnings Call - Q4 2024

March 4, 2025

Executive Summary

  • Q4 2024 reflected the transition to a pipeline-driven story: net product revenue was $(0.67)M and diluted EPS was $(0.55), driven by the April 2024 discontinuation of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA and associated returns/commitments; management emphasized strong cash runway through end of 2026 after raising $65.5M in Jan-2025.
  • Execution milestones strengthened: pivotal Phase 3 LUCIDITY for avexitide (PBH) recruiting began in Feb-2025, with dosing expected in Mar/Apr, completion of enrollment in 2025 and topline in H1 2026; Phase 2b ORION (PSP) fully enrolled (139 participants) with interim unblinded analysis in Q3 2025; Phase 1 LUMINA (ALS) recruiting with early cohort data expected in 2025.
  • Week 48 HE LIOS (Wolfram) data expected “in the coming months,” following positive topline (Week 24, sustained at Weeks 36/48) presented in Oct-2024, supporting Phase 3 planning.
  • Estimates comparison: Wall Street consensus (S&P Global) was unavailable; note estimates may need to reset to near-zero revenue until commercialization resumes (avexitide earliest launch targeted 2027 if approved).
  • Potential stock catalysts near term: LUCIDITY enrollment progress and site activation updates, Week 48 Wolfram data, ORION interim in Q3 2025, and U.S. site expansion for AMX0114.

What Went Well and What Went Wrong

What Went Well

  • “We made significant progress in 2024 across our pipeline…we advanced our lead investigational asset avexitide into a pivotal Phase 3 trial and expect topline results in the first half of 2026” — Co-CEOs Joshua Cohen & Justin Klee.
  • LUCIDITY initiated with FDA-agreed primary outcome; consistent prior PBH data showed 53% reduction in Level 2 and 66% reduction in Level 3 events at 90 mg QD; management confident in design and powering.
  • Financing extended cash runway through end of 2026; commercial preparations underway with appointment of CCO Dan Monahan (ex-Otsuka, Novartis, Sanofi).

What Went Wrong

  • Revenue essentially nil/negative due to product withdrawals and accrual adjustments; Q4 net product revenue $(0.67)M and net loss $(37.55)M; legacy cash outflows of $31.0M in Q4 for returns/rebates and purchase commitments; residual obligations $7.8M remain.
  • Year-over-year comparison stark: Q4 2023 revenue $108.45M and diluted EPS $0.07 vs Q4 2024 revenue $(0.67)M and diluted EPS $(0.55).
  • U.S. FDA constraints previously created timing friction for AMX0114; while recruiting has begun in Canada and U.S. sites are being opened, the path required additional regulatory interactions (Q3 context: clinical hold at FDA at lower starting dose).

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Good morning, and thank you for joining us. As we look to 2025 and 2026, we're entering a pivotal stage for Amylyx with key milestones across three assets in four ongoing clinical trials, all targeting orphan diseases with few or no treatment options. We're excited to have started the pivotal study of Avexitide for the treatment of post-bariatric hypoglycemia and anticipate top-line results in the first half of next year. We also recently completed financing, raising approximately $65.5 million to begin commercial preparations for Avexitide and to extend our cash runway through the end of 2026. Over the next 12-15 months, we are focused on execution as we look forward to three key data readouts. Our lead asset, Avexitide, is an investigational GLP-1 receptor antagonist with FDA breakthrough therapy designation in post-bariatric hypoglycemia, or PBH, as well as orphan drug designation.

PBH is a debilitating condition that leads to persistent and often progressive hypoglycemia. There are no treatments approved for the approximately 160,000 people living with PBH in the U.S. today. Avexitide has already been studied in five clinical trials of PBH that showed consistent, dose-dependent, statistically significant reductions in hypoglycemia. We started recruiting LUCIDITY , our pivotal 16-week Phase three clinical trial, in mid-February and expect that the first study participant will be dosed in March or April. We expect to complete recruitment of the approximately 75 participants by the end of this year and anticipate top-line data in the first half of 2026. Next in our pipeline is AMX0035, a combination small molecule that is designed to target endoplasmic reticulum, or stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. AMX0035 is currently being evaluated in Wolfram syndrome and progressive supranuclear palsy, or PSP, two diseases characterized by stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Wolfram syndrome is a rare, fatal, monogenic, progressive diabetic and neurodegenerative disease affecting an estimated 3,000 people in the U.S. There are no approved treatments. Like many childhood-onset monogenic diseases, the pathophysiology of Wolfram syndrome is well characterized. Our program is focused on people who carry mutations in the WFS1 gene, which encodes a protein called wolframin that spans the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. These mutations in wolframin directly cause stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. Last year, we reported our first clinical data in people with Wolfram syndrome. In our 12-person Phase II open-label HELIOS study, participants showed improvement or stabilization across all measured outcomes. We are continuing to follow participants in the ongoing HELIOS trial and expect to share the week 48 data in the coming months. These data, along with regulatory interactions, will inform the design of a Phase III trial.

We are also anticipating an interim readout of Phase IIb3 ORION trial, evaluating AMX0035 in PSP in the third quarter 2025. PSP is a rare, progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disease that affects an estimated 23,000 people in the U.S. at any one time and has no currently approved treatments. PSP is the most well-characterized pure tauopathy because all people with PSP have tau protein buildup in the brain. Genetics and model systems show that this abnormal tau buildup causes a characteristic brain degeneration and clinical presentation observed in the disease. AMX0035 previously demonstrated that it reduced tau measured in the cerebrospinal fluid of people with Alzheimer's disease. We believe AMX0035 is the first brain and cell penetrant agent that has previously shown significant tau protein reduction in CSF to be tested in PSP.

The Phase IIb portion of our Phase IIb/III ORION trial, evaluating AMX0035 in PSP, was fully enrolled in January with a total of 139 participants randomized. We expect safety and efficacy data from an unblinded interim analysis in the third quarter of this year. These data will inform our decision whether or not to move into the Phase III portion of the trial. Powering analyses published in the PSP literature estimate approximately 80% power to detect a 30% slowing in the rate of decline of PSPRS with this sample size. Our fourth clinical program is evaluating AMX0114 for the treatment of ALS. AMX0114 is an antisense oligonucleotide that knocks down calpain 2, one of the key proteases driving axonal degeneration. Last month, the Phase I multiple ascending dose LUMINA trial of AMX0114 was in recruiting in Canada.

We are working diligently to open additional sites in Canada and the U.S. We started recruiting LUMINA and expect the first participant dosed in March or April. We look forward to early cohort data from our Phase I LUMINA trial expected later this year. We are also actively working to build our pipeline in PBH and other rare diseases that may benefit from GLP-1 antagonism. Of particular note, at the end of last year, we announced a collaboration to develop a novel long-acting GLP-1 receptor antagonist with Gubra. Gubra is an industry leader in peptide-based drug discovery. We will continue to focus on clinical execution as we look forward to milestones in each of our programs over the next 12-15 months. I will now pass to Camille to speak further on our Phase III LUCIDITY clinical trial of Avexitide and PBH.

Camille Bedrosian (CMO)

Thanks, Justin. We are very excited about the potential of Avexitide to become the first approved treatment for people living with PBH. This debilitating condition is believed to result from an excessive GLP-1 response following bariatric surgery, leading to persistent, recurrent, and debilitating hypoglycemic events that take a profound toll on a person's quality of life. There are no approved treatments for PBH. Despite dietary modifications and rescue measures such as glucagon, people with PBH still experience persistent symptoms with no sustainable management options. In a potential first-in-class GLP-1 receptor antagonist, Avexitide is designed to bind to the GLP-1 receptor on pancreatic islet beta cells and inhibit the effects of excessive GLP-1 and PBH, mitigating hypoglycemia by decreasing insulin secretion and stabilizing blood glucose levels.

In December 2024, we presented the design of our pivotal Phase III LUCIDITY clinical trial, evaluating Avexitide in participants with PBH following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. In February of this year, we started recruiting LUCIDITY and expect to dose the first participant in March or April. The Phase III study is designed to have similar inclusion and exclusion criteria to the previous successful Phase II Prevent trial that led to breakthrough therapy status and the Phase IIb trial of Avexitide and PBH. LUCIDITY will evaluate the FDA-agreed-upon primary outcome of reduction in the composite of Level 2 and Level 3 hypoglycemic events. We believe there are many contributing factors for overall optimism for the study. We are encouraged by the engagement of the sites as they are activated, as well as the responsiveness of potential participants.

The study team is fully engaged with the carefully chosen sites as they provide comprehensive training materials and facilitate site activation. Furthermore, the study has a number of blinded touch points and monitoring elements that will serve to support the study site staff and, by extension, the participants throughout the study. The strength of the substantial clinical data generated to date for Avexitide underpins our confidence in the potential of this program. Across five clinical trials of Avexitide in people with PBH, there have been consistent, dose-dependent effects that we believe support its potential to become the first approved treatment option for PBH. In multiple early-stage trials in PBH and in healthy volunteers, Avexitide had a clear pharmacodynamic effect. Avexitide showed a rapid, statistically significant decrease in post-meal insulin levels and stabilization in plasma glucose nadir.

Data from two Phase II trials of Avexitide demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in hypoglycemic events and improvements in glucose control in PBH following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. In Phase IIb trial, participants received 90 milligrams once daily of Avexitide, the dose we are evaluating in our pivotal Phase III LUCIDITY trial. Most notably, treatment with 90 milligrams of Avexitide led to a statistically significant reduction in hypoglycemic events, specifically a 53% reduction in Level 2 events with a p-value of 0.004 and a 66% reduction in Level 3 events with a p-value of 0.0003. 90 milligrams once daily of Avexitide also has demonstrated a favorable pharmacokinetic profile, maintaining exposure in the therapeutic range through 24 hours, supporting daily dosing. This property translated to similar meaningful improvements in nadir glucose levels as measured by CGM, both during the day and overnight.

Avexitide was generally well tolerated, with a favorable safety profile replicated across the clinical trial. In summary, we are executing this important Phase III trial supported by compelling and consistent Avexitide data and a dedicated study team. I will now turn over the call to Jim. Jim?

Jim Frates (CFO)

Thanks, Camille. We ended 2024 in a solid cash position with $176.5 million, which does not include the approximately $65.5 million in net proceeds from our public offering, which closed on January 13, 2025. With these resources, we expect our cash runway to take us through 2026. Now, turning to the financial results for the quarter, total operating expenses for Q4 were $39.9 million, down 62% from the same period in 2023. Research and development expenses were $22.9 million, compared to $44.9 million in Q4 2023, primarily due to a decrease in spending on AMX0035 for the treatment of ALS, payroll and personnel-related costs, and a decrease in preclinical development activities. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $17.1 million, compared to $52.2 million in Q4 2023, primarily due to a decrease in payroll and personnel-related costs and a decrease in consulting and professional services.

During the quarter, our ongoing operating expenses used roughly $27 million in cash. In addition, we used roughly $31 million in cash for previously recognized items related to our voluntary discontinuation of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA in April of last year. These included payments for product returns and rebates, and the final settlements of previous purchase commitments for AMX0035 for commercial production. Going forward, we have approximately $7.8 million of these obligations remaining, which we expect will be paid through 2025. Looking ahead, we believe we have the necessary cash to support our progress and to deliver on our planned clinical milestones through the end of 2026.

These milestones are data from the Phase III LUCIDITY trial of Avexitide in PBH, data at week 48 from the ongoing HELIOS trial in Wolfram syndrome, the unblinded interim analysis of Phase IIb portion of our ORION trial in PSP, and data from our Phase I LUMINA trial of AMX0114 in ALS, along with commercial preparations for the potential first-to-market launch of Avexitide in PBH. With that, I'll turn the call over to Joshua to provide some closing remarks.

Joshua Cohen (Co-CEO)

Thank you, Jim. We are entering this year with strong momentum. We are focused on executing our clinical trials and making meaningful progress on preparing for a potential commercial launch of a GLP-1 receptor antagonist. At the start of the year, we appointed Dan Monahan as Chief Commercial Officer. Dan is leading our commercialization strategy across our portfolio, beginning with Avexitide. He brings more than two decades of commercial leadership experience launching industry-leading medicines at Otsuka, Novartis, and Sanofi. With a proven commercial and medical team in place, we believe we are well-positioned for a potential first of Avexitide and PBH. We estimate, based on our projections from published literature and claims-based work, that there are about 160,000 people in the United States who are living with PBH today, who have persistent symptoms despite dietary modifications, and who face a significant unmet need.

There is a new slide with these details in our updated corporate deck. PBH is rare. The condition does not happen to most of the millions of people who undergo bariatric surgery, and PBH does not present immediately. On average, symptoms appear approximately one to three years following bariatric surgery. Once people have PBH, the condition is chronic, debilitating, and often progressive. It can mean loss of work, inability to drive, and a state of disability. Bariatric surgery remains standard of care for addressing obesity, particularly for people who require significant and sustained weight loss, meaning the unmet need in PBH is only expected to continue to grow. We are preparing diligently ahead of the Avexitide Phase III top-line data expected in the first half of next year, and if approved, we anticipate commercial launch in 2027.

In addition to Avexitide and PBH, we have exciting milestones ahead this year that have the potential to make a meaningful, positive impact on the other communities that we aim to serve. For AMX0035 and PSP, we expect top-line data from an unblinded interim analysis of Phase IIb portion of the ORION trial in the third quarter of this year. For AMX0035 and Wolfram syndrome, we are continuing to follow participants in the ongoing Phase II HELIOS trial and expect to share week 48 data in the coming months. These data, along with regulatory interactions, will inform the design of a Phase III trial. We expect early cohort data from our Phase I LUMINA ALS trial in 2025.

We appreciate your continued support and look forward to keeping you updated on our progress toward developing novel therapies for people living with serious and fatal neurodegenerative diseases and endocrine conditions. Now, I would like to open the call up for questions.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question-and-answer session. To ask a question, please press Star 1 on your telephone keypad. To withdraw your question, please press Star 2. Please limit your questions to one with one follow-up. If you have additional questions, you may rejoin the queue. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. Your first question is from Michael DiFiore from Evercore ISI. Your line is now open.

Michael DiFiore (Analyst)

Hi, guys. Thanks so much for taking my questions. Congrats on all the progress. Two for me. One on the PBH Phase III. Why limit the entry criteria to just Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedures and not include sleeve gastrectomy, especially when considering the greater prevalence of sleeve procedures? My follow-up is on the PSP ORION study. Could you remind us how efficacy will be interpreted in this study across regions, given the use of the 10-item PSP rating scale in the U.S. as a primary and the 28-item PSP rating scale in ex-U.S. jurisdictions? Thank you.

Camille Bedrosian (CMO)

Yes. Hi, Mike. This is Camille. Thank you for the questions. With regard to Roux-en-Y in our LUCIDITY trial, we have the most experience with Avexitide in people who've experienced Roux-en-Y and then developed PBH. Having said that, we recognize that the pathophysiology is consistent across bariatric surgeries. To minimize heterogeneity, though, we are limiting the enrollment to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and expect later for Avexitide to be available for people with PBH generally.

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Yeah. Just going to the market dynamics as well. I think first, just underscoring Camille's point, that we think that pathophysiology is the same is really for trial criteria. We'll have those discussions when appropriate with FDA. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, there have been about 600,000 people who've gotten Roux-en-Y gastric bypass over the past 10 years. There are roughly 60,000 people each year who get a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. With 8%, we estimate, of people who get a bariatric procedure who will develop PBH in the years following surgery, that's still a very substantial market. To say as well, we think the pathophysiology is the same. Our ultimate intention is we think that this should be a treatment that would be used for PBH, period.

Joshua Cohen (Co-CEO)

Yeah. On your question on PSP, about the 10-item versus the 28-item, different regulators in different regions are interested in different ways of analyzing the PSP rating scale, as you mentioned. Our experience, however, is that these are pretty consistent. It's not a big divergence to kind of look at the PSP 10-item versus the PSP 28-item. Frankly, in the study, we'll be looking at both. Again, we expect the results from both to be very similar.

Michael DiFiore (Analyst)

Got it. Thank you.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. Your next question is from Tim Anderson from Bank of America. Your line is now open.

Hi, good morning. This is Susan Ong for Tim Anderson. Two questions from us. The first one, what is the target profile that you guys are looking to achieve with the long-acting GLP-1? And if you can, how does this profile compare to other long-acting GLP-1s, like Amgen's MariTide and Metcera's MET 097i?

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Yeah. Maybe I'll take those in reverse, actually. This is a GLP-1 antagonist. Those are GLP-1 agonists. Today, Avexitide is the only GLP-1 antagonist that has consistently shown reductions in insulin, raising the glucose nadir, reductions in hypoglycemia in people with PBH. We think that a GLP-1 antagonist may have not just application in people with PBH, but potentially other diseases as well that are either characterized or accelerated by hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. Because we're quite excited about the mechanism, we think it makes sense to invest for the future. That's why we started the research partnership with Gubra to develop a potential long-acting GLP-1 antagonist. We also think Avexitide has great potential. We really see this as investing for the future.

Okay. And just one more. On your PBH market sizing, how are you guys forecasting future patient numbers? I guess I'm just trying to understand. I think the market will shrink, right, over time, given current use of GLP-1s, which would mean that fewer patients probably get bariatric surgery. Of course, bariatric surgery is a once-and-done type of procedure.

Joshua Cohen (Co-CEO)

Yeah. Maybe a couple of things. First, our anticipation, actually, is that the market will continue to grow. Maybe breaking that down. First, bariatric surgery started becoming common in the United States in the early 2000s. It's typically done to folks who are generally in their early 40s. The population who've had bariatric surgery in the U.S. today are generally in their 40s or 50s. PBH is chronic. Once people have PBH, they generally have it for the rest of their life. All of those folks who have had bariatric surgery and now have PBH will have it for multiple upcoming decades. Talking about kind of the ongoing bariatric surgeries, in talking to physicians and bariatric surgeons, we do hear that there continues to be significant demand for bariatric surgeries.

A lot of people describe that there is a differentiation, that the bariatric surgery is often used for those who are looking for very significant deep weight loss, in some cases looking for over 100 pounds of weight loss, whereas they might use the GLP-1 in cases that maybe are less significant in terms of total weight loss. One, we hear that this continues to be quite in demand, which will continue to grow that pool that already exists today and will have it for the rest of their lives.

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Yeah. Just underscoring that last point. We estimate there are 160,000 people with post-bariatric hypoglycemia today. PBH does not go away. For example, we're working with someone who's had PBH for 18 years. PBH is persistent. It doesn't go away. The market will only continue to grow, not shrink.

Thank you.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. Your next question is from Joel Bailey from Baird. Your line is now open.

Joel Beatty (Analyst)

Hi. Thanks for taking the questions. For the Wolfram syndrome trial, could you discuss what you're looking for in the week 48 data that will help inform regulatory interactions? For Avexitide, could you discuss the potential to develop that agent for other indications beyond PBH? Thank you.

Camille Bedrosian (CMO)

Yep. Thank you, Joel. This is Camille. Yes. As we described in October of last year, the week 24 data and some individuals out to week 36 and week 48, we saw improvements in C-peptide response to a mixed meal, which is indicative of improved beta cell function, which is uncharacteristic for a disease that is neurodegenerative and beta cell degenerative. All other hypoglycemic control measures also moved in the same direction. We are anticipating and looking forward to the possibility that at week 48, we'll see continued sustained improvements in all those measures, in addition to which the visual acuity, indication of retinal ganglia cell health, we expect that and look forward to the possibility of seeing stabilization or improvement in visual acuity as well. Recall that these individuals are adults having lived with this genetic disorder all their lives. We're looking forward to that possibility.

That should also provide the FDA with continued confidence in the potential of AMX0035 for people living with Wolfram who have nothing at this time to treat their condition.

Joshua Cohen (Co-CEO)

And then speaking to Avexitide and other indications, first, I'll say PBH is already a large and exciting area and a significant unmet need. Certainly, our first focus is in PBH. We do believe, though, that there are multiple other indications where the mechanism of a GLP-1 antagonist could be important, including diseases of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and potentially diseases where other elements of the GLP-1 pathway may be helpful. Again, our focus for right now is on PBH.

Joel Beatty (Analyst)

Thank you.

Operator (participant)

Thank you once again. That is Star 1 to ask a question. Your next question is from Marc Goodman from Leerink. Your line is now open.

Madhumita Yennawar (Analyst)

Hi. Thanks. This is Madhu on the line from Mark. We've heard from some physicians that there are some patients who exhibit PBH without the postprandial hyperinsulinism. We're curious if you're screening for patients who specifically show a spike in insulin levels post-meal. Has your research shown a specific proportion of patients who show this in PBH? Also, how should we be thinking of pricing for Avexitide? We know it's early, but just wanted to get a ballpark idea. Thanks.

Joshua Cohen (Co-CEO)

Sure. Maybe starting with the postprandial hyperinsulinism. One, I think we have generally seen the hyperinsulinism going through at least our review of the literature. You see that across quite a number of studies and quite a number of patients. I think also important to note, our inclusion/exclusion criteria are very similar, nearly identical to what was used in Phase II Phase IIb, where we saw large effect size and high statistical significance. We think we're well-positioned for that as we go into the Phase III study. On the pricing side, of course, too early to give anything definitive on pricing quite yet before we have our data. I'd encourage you to look at other orphan analogs. This is an orphan drug. Additionally, of course, the efficacy will drive things.

I do think it is quite an impact in people's lives to bring their glucose control to a much more normal measure. These patients do describe being in kind of an ongoing state of disability. Being able to bring that back more near towards normal would be a huge change for these individuals.

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Yeah. Just going back to the first question as well, and just to talk through the pharmacology a little bit. Hypoglycemia can happen certainly after a meal, postprandial. It can happen at any time. It can happen for a variety of different triggers. That is very true. We think that is why it is important that you want to have a molecule that can protect against these hypoglycemic events throughout the day. With 90 mg once-daily dosing, we are in the therapeutic range for 24 hours. Preventing those hypoglycemic events for the full day with daily dosing. With PBH, though, what we know from a pharmacology perspective is the reason for these very precipitous blood glucose drops is because there is a very strong insulin response that seems to be due to a very strong endogenous GLP-1 response.

GLP-1 levels can be up to 10 times normal in people with PBH. That causes very significant insulin secretion, which then lowers glucose very precipitously. That is why, of course, a GLP-1 antagonist makes a lot of sense for this indication.

Madhumita Yennawar (Analyst)

Thanks.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call back to Mr. Klee.

Justin Klee (Co-CEO)

Thank you, operator. Thank you all for your time. We look forward to seeing many of you in the coming weeks and months. If you have any follow-up questions, please reach out to Lindsey. I hope you have a great rest of your day.

Operator (participant)

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, the conference has now ended. Thank you all for joining. You may all disconnect your lines.
