BIO-PATH HOLDINGS REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Conference Call to be Held Today at 8:30 A.M. ET
HOUSTON—November 15, 2022 – Bio-Path Holdings, Inc., (NASDAQ:BPTH), a biotechnology company leveraging its proprietary DNAbilize® liposomal delivery and antisense technology to develop a portfolio of targeted nucleic acid cancer drugs, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 and provided an update on recent corporate developments.
“The third quarter was marked by continued progress across our entire DNAbilize pipeline. It was highlighted by the initiation of our Phase 1/1b study of BP1002 in refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia patients,” said Peter Nielsen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bio-Path Holdings. “Looking to the remainder of the year and into 2023, we are well-positioned to maintain this momentum. We look forward to initiating our Phase 1 study of BP1001-A for the treatment of solid tumors later this year and to filing an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for BP1003, a novel liposome-incorporated STAT3 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide, in the first half of 2023.”
Recent Corporate Highlights
● | Announced First Patient Dosed in Phase 1/1b Study of BP1002 in Refractory/Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients. In October, Bio-Path announced the enrollment and dosing of the first patient in a Phase 1/1b clinical trial evaluating the ability of BP1002 to treat refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. |
● | Closed $2.0 Million Registered Direct Offering and Concurrent Private Placement. In November, Bio-Path entered into a definitive agreement with certain institutional investors for the issuance and sale of 800,000 shares of its common stock (or common stock equivalents) for a price of $2.50 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $2.0 million, in a registered direct offering. Additionally, in a concurrent private placement, Bio-Path also agreed to issue to such investors unregistered warrants. The offerings closed on November 9, 2022. |
Financial Results for the Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2022
● | The Company reported a net loss of $3.5 million, or $0.49 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.29 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. |
● | Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased to $2.4 million, compared to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to manufacturing expenses related to drug product releases in the third quarter of 2022 and start-up costs related to our Phase 1 clinical trial for BP1001-A in solid tumors. |
● | General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $1.2 million, an increase of $0.1 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to increased legal fees. |
● | As of September 30, 2022, the Company had cash of $13.7 million, compared to $23.8 million at December 31, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $10.1 million compared to $7.1 million for the comparable period in 2021. |
