Larimar Therapeutics Reports Positive Top-line Data from Phase 2 Dose Exploration Study from 25 mg and 50 mg Cohorts of Nomlabofusp in Patients with Friedreich’s Ataxia

Nomlabofusp was generally well tolerated following repeated subcutaneous injections in patients in the 25 and 50 mg cohorts with no serious adverse events
Dose dependent increases in frataxin levels were observed in skin and buccal cells
Open Label Extension (OLE) study initiated in January 2024 to dose 25 mg daily of nomlabofusp with dosing anticipated to be starting later this quarter; Initial data expected in Q4 2024
Initiated discussions with the FDA on use of tissue frataxin levels as a novel surrogate endpoint to support a potential Biologics License Application (“BLA”) submission for accelerated approval targeted for 2H 2025
Company management to host webcast and conference call today at 8:00 a.m. ET

 

Bala Cynwyd, PA, February 12, 2024 – Larimar Therapeutics, Inc. (“Larimar”) (Nasdaq: LRMR), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing treatments for complex rare diseases, today announced positive top-line data and successful completion of its four-week, placebo-controlled Phase 2 dose exploration study of nomlabofusp (CTI-1601) in participants with Friedreich’s ataxia (FA). Nomlabofusp was generally well tolerated and demonstrated dose dependent increases in frataxin (FXN) levels in all evaluated tissues (skin and buccal cells) after daily dosing of 14 days followed by every other day dosing until day 28 in the 25 mg and 50 mg cohorts. Participants in the 25 mg (n=13) and 50 mg (n=15) cohorts were randomized 2:1 to receive subcutaneous injections of nomlabofusp or placebo.

“We believe the dose-response and increases in FXN levels seen in peripheral tissues further reinforce the therapeutic potential of nomlabofusp to address FXN deficiency, the known root cause of disease in patients with FA,” said Carole Ben-Maimon, MD, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Larimar. “Importantly, the patients treated with 50 mg of nomlabofusp presented with individual baseline FXN skin levels less than 17% of the average level found in healthy volunteers, but after 14 days of daily treatment all patients with quantifiable levels at baseline and day 14 achieved FXN levels in skin cells greater than 33% of the average level found in healthy volunteers, and three of the patients achieved levels greater than 50% of average healthy volunteer level. Together with the consistent results seen across our Phase 2 and Phase 1 studies, we believe these findings suggest that nomlabofusp can achieve tissue FXN levels that may have a clinically meaningful effect on disease progression in patients with FA.”

 

Dr. Ben-Maimon continued, “Recently, we had discussions with the FDA regarding the use of tissue FXN levels as a novel surrogate endpoint. The FDA has acknowledged that frataxin deficiency appears to be critical to the pathogenic mechanism of FA, and that there continues to be an unmet need for treatments for FA patients that address the underlying disease pathophysiology. We intend to pursue an accelerated approval using FXN levels, supportive pharmacodynamics and clinical information, and safety data from the OLE study, along with additional nonclinical pharmacology information needed to support the novel surrogate endpoint approach. We are beginning to plan for a confirmatory study and are targeting a BLA submission in the second half of 2025.”

 

Dr. Russell Clayton, Chief Medical Officer of Larimar added, “These promising Phase 2 dose exploration data further expand our nomlabofusp safety database and strengthen clinical support for the generally well tolerated profile and low discontinuation rates seen across studies. In January, we initiated the OLE study that will start with a 25 mg daily dose, and the first subjects will begin self-administration later this quarter. The OLE study will inform on the long-term safety and self-administration of nomlabofusp following daily subcutaneous administration. Further dose expansion in the OLE will be considered based on safety, pharmacokinetics, and tissue FXN levels from the 25 mg dose of nomlabofusp. We expect to provide interim data from the OLE study in the fourth quarter of 2024.”

 

 

 


 

Key Phase 2 Results

Median changes in FXN levels from baseline for the 25 mg and 50 mg cohorts of nomlabofusp
o
Skin cells: 2.81 pg/µg for the 25 mg cohort and 5.57 pg/µg for the 50 mg cohort
o
Buccal cells: 0.56 pg/µg for the 25 mg cohort and 0.72 pg/µg for the 50 mg cohort
As seen in our multiple ascending dose (MAD) study, when dosing is switched to every other day, FXN levels decline from the levels achieved with daily dosing but remain above baseline.
All treated patients demonstrated increases in FXN levels in skin cells and the majority of patients also demonstrated increases in FXN levels in buccal cells.
At Day 14, all patients with quantifiable levels at baseline and Day 14 treated with 50 mg of nomlabofusp achieved FXN levels in skin cells greater than 33% of the average level found in healthy volunteers, and 3 of the patients achieved levels greater than 50% of the average healthy volunteer level.
While FXN levels measured in buccal cells show a high degree of correlation with FXN levels measured in skin cells, higher variability in FXN levels was seen in buccal cells compared to skin cells in both the multiple ascending dose study and the Phase 2 dose exploration study. Skin cells have a lower turnover rate and skin is a more stable tissue. The collection method for skin cells is also well-established and standardized, which provides a more reliable and reproducible measure of changes in FXN levels with treatment compared to buccal cells.

 

Median baseline tissue FXN levels in skin cells were 3.70 pg/µg and 2.12 pg/µg for the 25 mg and 50 mg cohorts, respectively, and in buccal cells were 1.78 pg/µg and 1.61 pg/µg for the 25 mg and 50 mg cohorts, respectively. Changes in FXN levels after nomlabofusp administration in the Phase 2 trial at day 14 (QD: once daily for 14 days) and day 28 (QOD: every other day after day 14) are:

For the 50 mg group, one participant had skin cell FXN levels below quantifiable levels at baseline.

 

**Subjects who had one or more FXN measurements below quantifiable levels are excluded from the above analysis. For the placebo group, one participant had buccal cell FXN levels below quantifiable levels at baseline and four participants had buccal cell FXN levels below quantifiable levels at day 14 and day 28. For 25 mg group, day 28 buccal FXN were not collected from one participant who discontinued treatment and two participants had buccal FXN levels below quantifiable levels at baseline. For the 50 mg, one participant had buccal cell FXN levels below quantifiable levels at baseline, day 14 and day 28, and two participants had buccal FXN levels below quantifiable levels at day 14 and day 28.

 


 

 

 

Key Phase 2 Pharmacokinetic and Safety Data for 25 mg and 50 mg Cohorts of Nomlabofusp

Quick absorption after subcutaneous administration of nomlabofusp with dose proportional increases in exposure were observed with increasing doses.
Generally well tolerated with no serious adverse events reported.
No severe adverse events in the 50 mg cohort. One severe adverse event for an allergic reaction to the study drug was reported in the 25 mg cohort and was resolved with standard treatment.
18 of the 19 participants dosed with nomlabofusp completed the trial, with one participant in the 25 mg cohort withdrawing due to the aforementioned allergic reaction that resolved with standard treatment.
Most common adverse events were mild and moderate injection site reactions.

 

Updates on the Nomlabofusp Regulatory Pathway in FA

FDA acknowledgment that frataxin deficiency appears to be critical to the pathogenic mechanism of FA, and that there continues to be an unmet need for treatments for FA patients that address the underlying disease pathophysiology.
Ongoing discussions with the FDA on evidence needed to support an accelerated approval application, including supplementary nonclinical pharmacology investigations, FXN, supportive PD and clinical outcomes information from the OLE study, and additional clinical safety data.
Initiation of a confirmatory study planned prior to BLA submission.
Potential BLA submission targeted for 2H 2025.

Clinical-Stage Novel Protein Replacement Therapy Platform Lead candidate nomlabofusp* (CTI-1601) is a recombinant fusion protein designed to directly address frataxin deficiency in patients with Friedreich's ataxia (FA) by delivering the protein to mitochondria. Granted Orphan Drug (US & EU), Rare Pediatric Disease (US), Fast Track (US), & PRIME (EU) designations Nomlabofusp was generally well tolerated and demonstrated dose-dependent increases in frataxin (FXN) levels from baseline in skin and buccal cells in a 4-week placebo-controlled Phase 2 study and a multiple ascending dose Phase 1 study Initiated OLE study with 25 mg daily dosing in Q1 2024 with interim data expected in Q4 2024 To potentially escalate dose in the OLE study, 25 mg treatment data will be submitted for FDA review due to continued partial clinical hold $86.8** million estimated cash balance (December 31, 2023) with projected cash runway into Q1 2025 Potential first therapy to increase frataxin levels Consistent Phase 1 and Phase 2 findings Intend to pursue accelerated approval with FDA OLE study with near-term catalysts Strong financial foundation *As of October 2023, nomlabofusp was published as the INN (International Nonproprietary Name) and USAN (United States Adopted Name) for CTI-1601. **This estimate is unaudited and preliminary and actual results may differ due to the completion of our fiscal 2023 closing procedures. As such, this estimate should not be viewed as a substitute for our full audited financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. FDA acknowledgement that FXN deficiency appears to be critical to the pathogenic mechanism of FA, and that there continues to be an unmet need for treatments that address the underlying disease pathophysiology. Discussions to support an accelerated approval are ongoing. BLA submission targeted for 2H 2025


Slide 5

Friedreich’s Ataxia (FA): A rare and progressive disease 5 * E.C. Deutsch et al. Molecular Genetics and Metabolism 101 (2010) 238–245. Most patients with FA only produce ~20-40% of normal frataxin levels depending on the tissue, sampling technique, and assay considered* Genetic defect on both alleles lowers frataxin levels Progressive disease Initial symptoms include unsteady posture and frequent falling, and patients are eventually confined to a wheelchair Life expectancy of 30-50 years with an early death usually caused by heart disease Affects ~20,000 patients globally ~5,000 patients in the U.S., with most remaining patients in the EU ~70% of patients present before age 14 No approved therapies increase frataxin levels Only treatment approved for FA does not address frataxin deficiency
