• | Reported positive top-line data from an interim analysis of a Phase 2a proof-of-concept trial of etokimab in severe eosinophilic asthma |
• | Four top-line Phase 2 clinical efficacy readouts from our wholly-owned pipeline anticipated in 2019 |
• | IND filing for new wholly-owned program anticipated in second half of 2019 |
• | In September 2018, the Company announced positive top-line proof-of-concept data for etokimab, its investigational anti-IL-33 therapeutic antibody, in a single dose Phase 2a clinical trial in adult patients with severe eosinophilic asthma. Patients administered with etokimab rapidly improved their Forced Exhaled Volume In One Second, or FEV1, which is a measure of lung function, with an eight percent FEV1 improvement over placebo at Day 2. FEV1 improvement was sustained through Day 64, with an 11 percent increase over placebo. Blood eosinophil reduction was sustained through the interim analysis period, with a 31 percent reduction at Day 2 and a 46 percent reduction at Day 64 over placebo, which was consistent with FEV1 improvement observed in this trial. Etokimab was generally well tolerated in all patients and no serious adverse events were reported as of this interim analysis. The Company plans to report full data from this trial at a medical conference in 2019. The Company also plans to continue development of etokimab in eosinophilic asthma with a multi-dose Phase 2b randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial, which is expected to be initiated in 2019. |
• | The Company is conducting a Phase 2b randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-dose study in 300 adult patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis, also referred to as the ATLAS trial, to assess different dose levels and dosing frequencies of subcutaneously-administered etokimab, with top-line data expected in the second half of 2019. |
• | The Company is conducting a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2 trial in approximately 100 adult patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, also referred to as the ECLIPSE trial. Patients are being treated with two multi-dosing frequencies of subcutaneously-administered etokimab or placebo, each in combination with mometasone furoate nasal spray as background therapy. The Company anticipates top-line data from the ECLIPSE trial will be available in the second half of 2019. |
• | The Company is conducting a 10-patient, single arm, open-label Phase 2 trial of ANB019 in generalized pustular psoriasis, or GPP, also known as the GALLOP trial, with top-line data anticipated in mid-2019. |
• | The Company is conducting a randomized, placebo-controlled 50-patient multi-dose Phase 2 trial in palmoplantar pustulosis, or PPP, also known as the POPLAR trial, with top line data anticipated in the second half of 2019. |
• | On September 28, 2018, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 2,530,000 shares of common stock at a price to the public of $94.46, which included the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase an additional 330,000 shares of common stock. AnaptysBio, received net proceeds from the offering of $227.5 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. |
• | Cash, cash equivalents and investments totaled $500.2 million as of December 31, 2018 compared to $324.3 million as of December 31, 2017, for an increase of $175.9 million.

• | Collaboration revenue was $5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, related to a milestone for the first Phase 3 trial of TSR-042 by TESARO. Collaboration revenue was $3.0 million and $10.0 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, for two TESARO related milestones. |
• | Research and development expenses were $15.9 million and $56.2 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to $7.6 million and $29.4 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily due to continued advancement of the Company’s etokimab and ANB019 clinical programs and additional personnel-related expenses including share-based compensation during the three months and year ended December 31, 2018. |
• | General and administrative expenses were $3.7 million and $15.5 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to $2.5 million and $9.3 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to additional personnel-related expenses, including share-based compensation. |
• | Net loss was $17.0 million and $61.7 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018, or a net loss per share of $0.64 and $2.50, respectively, as compared to a net loss of $6.9 million and $30.1 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2017, or a net loss per share of $0.30 and $1.52, respectively. |
