Exhibit 99.1
Aclaris Therapeutics Reports First Quarter 2023 Financial Results and Provides a Corporate Update
- Management to Host Conference Call at 8:00 AM ET Today –
WAYNE, Pa., May 8, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aclaris Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACRS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel drug candidates for immuno-inflammatory diseases, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2023 and provided a corporate update.
“The first quarter of 2023 represented another period of continued progress advancing our clinical stage development programs toward important data milestones,” stated Doug Manion, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Aclaris. “As we continue to move toward data catalysts for zunsemetinib in rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis as well as ATI-1777 in atopic dermatitis, we also are making positive progress towards bringing our next potentially broadly applicable candidate, ATI-2138, into its first proof of concept trial in ulcerative colitis.”
Continued Dr. Manion, “Regarding our proof-of-concept trial of zunsemetinib in hidradenitis suppurativa, which we reported in March, while we did not see positive efficacy results in this particularly challenging disease, we were able to strengthen our safety database and demonstrate mechanistically that our potentially first-in-class MK2 inhibitor performed as expected.”
Research and Development Highlights:
Clinical Development Programs:
● | Zunsemetinib, an investigational oral small molecule MK2 inhibitor: |
Currently being developed as a potential treatment for immuno-inflammatory diseases
o | Psoriatic Arthritis (ATI-450-PsA-201): This Phase 2a trial to investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, PK and PD of zunsemetinib (50 mg twice daily) in subjects with moderate to severe psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is ongoing. Based on a slower than anticipated study start up in Europe, the trial enrollment has taken longer than expected. Based on current enrollment trends and momentum, particularly in Poland, Aclaris now expects topline data in the first half of 2024, rather than year end 2023. |
● | ATI-1777, an investigational topical “soft” Janus kinase (JAK) 1/3 inhibitor: |
Currently being developing as a potential treatment for mild to severe atopic dermatitis (AD)
o | Atopic Dermatitis (ATI-1777-AD-202): This Phase 2b trial to determine the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and PK of multiple doses and application regimens of ATI-1777 in subjects with mild to severe AD is ongoing. In April 2023, Aclaris modified the protocol to expand the inclusion criteria for the trial to enroll patients with milder disease to broaden the drug’s target indication potential and to further aide enrollment which was challenged by an unexpected milder winter season. As a result, Aclaris currently projects topline data in the second half of 2023, rather than mid-year 2023. |
● | ATI-2138, an investigational oral covalent ITK/JAK3 inhibitor: |
Currently being developed as a potential treatment for T cell-mediated autoimmune diseases
o | Aclaris has selected ulcerative colitis as the intended first clinical development target for ATI-2138. Aclaris is also exploring additional indications that are relevant to the mechanism of action. |
o | Healthy Volunteers (ATI-2138-PKPD-102): This Phase 1 MAD (multiple ascending dose) trial to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK and PD of ATI-2138 in healthy volunteers is ongoing. Aclaris continues to expect topline data in the second half of 2023. |
Preclinical Development Program
● | ATI-2231, an investigational oral MK2 inhibitor compound: |
Currently being explored as a potential treatment for pancreatic cancer and metastatic breast cancer as well as in preventing bone loss in patients with metastatic breast cancer
o | Second MK2 inhibitor generated from Aclaris’ proprietary KINect® drug discovery platform and designed to have a long plasma half-life. |
o | Aclaris expects clinical development activities to be initiated in 2023, which is expected to advance as a collaboration with an academic third party. |
Financial Highlights:
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2023, Aclaris had aggregate cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $204.4 million compared to $229.8 million as of December 31, 2022.
Additionally, in March 2023, Aclaris issued a placement notice to sell approximately 3.4 million shares under its ATM facility for aggregate net proceeds of $26.7 million. This transaction closed in April 2023.
Aclaris continues to anticipate that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2023 in combination with the $26.7 million in net proceeds from sales under the ATM facility subsequent to quarter end, will be sufficient to fund its operations through the end of 2025, without giving effect to any potential business development transactions or additional financing activities.
Financial Results
First Quarter 2023
● | Net loss was $28.2 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $18.8 million for the first quarter of 2022. |
● | Total revenue was $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was driven primarily by higher licensing revenues from royalties earned on out-licensed intellectual property in the first quarter of 2023. |
● | Research and development (R&D) expenses were $22.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to $14.3 million for the prior year period. |
o | The $8.3 million increase was primarily the result of higher: |
◾ | Zunsemetinib development expenses related to drug candidate manufacturing and costs associated with clinical activities for a Phase 2b trial for RA. |
◾ | ATI-1777 development expenses related to costs associated with a Phase 2b clinical trial for AD. |
◾ | ATI-2138 development expenses, including costs associated with a Phase 1 MAD trial and other preclinical activities. |
◾ | Compensation-related expenses due to an increase in headcount. |
● | General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $8.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to $6.1 million for the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation-related expenses due to an increase in headcount. |
● | Licensing expenses were $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 resulting from separate third-party contractual obligations related to the non-exclusive patent license agreement with Lilly. There were no licensing expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. |
● | Revaluation of contingent consideration resulted in a $0.8 million credit for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to a credit of $1.2 million for the prior year period. |

All rights reserved HS-201: Exploratory Pharmacodynamic Analysis 18 Analysis of HS Patient Endogenous Plasma Cytokines • Assay - Ex vivo LPS stimulated cytokine production in whole blood • Samples from both placebo and Zunsemetinib treated HS patients plus healthy donor controls • Small sample set – 5 patients total • Cytokines – TNFa, IL1b, IL6 & IL8 Analysis of Cytokines in Ex vivo Stimulated Patient Blood • Assay – Measurement of endogenous cytokines,chemokines and markers of inflammation in plasma from zunsemetinib or placebo treated HS patients • All 95 patients in the study plus healthy donor controls • Patient sample set = Days 1, 29, 57 & 85. Fifty-seven complete/thirty-eight partial sets. • Analytes measured – IFNg, IL-1a, IL-1b, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNFa, IL-12/IL23p40, IL-1RA, IL-17A/F, IP10, MIP1b, SAA, CRP |

All rights reserved MK2 Pathway Cytokine Dependence and Response Durability Ex vivo LPS-Stimulated Blood Analyses Across Zunsemetinib Studies 19 Phase 1 Phase 2a • Zunsemetinib potently inhibited TNFa and IL1b on day 1 suggesting that proinflammatory cytokine production in healthy subjects, RA and HS patients is dependent on the MK2 pathway • Zunsemetinib potently inhibited TNFa and IL-1b following prolonged dosing (MAD: 7 days BID; RA 2a: 84 days BID; HS 2a: 84 days BID) consistent with lack of pathway reprogramming and tachyphylaxis in all studies Phase 1 : MAD Phase 2a : RA Phase 2a : HS1 1.

All rights reserved Lower Endogenous Plasma Cytokines Observed in HS vs in RA Phase 2a Studies 20 Endogenous proinflammatory cytokines and CRP were lower in the HS phase 2a study compared with the RA phase 2a study consistent with a lower level of systemic inflammation Median Cytokine Levels Pre-Dose Ratio of RA/HS Cytokine Levels |

All rights reserved Zunsemetinib Did Not Inhibit the Anti-Inflammatory IL-1 Receptor Antagonist (IL-1RA) Cytokine in either HS or RA Phase 2a Studies 22 RA Phase 2a Study HS Phase 2a Study The anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-1RA was elevated in both HS and RA patients and was not inhibited by zunsemetinib in contrast to the proinflammatory cytokines |

All rights reserved Zunsemetinib Treatment Resulted in a Sustained Inhibition of CRP in both RA-201 and HS-201 Studies 23 RA Phase 2a Study HS Phase 2a Study Sustained inhibition of plasma CRP in HS patients was observed with zunsemetinib treatment similar to that observed in the RA-201 Phase 2a study |
© Copyright 2023 Aclaris Therapeutics, Inc. All rights reserved Summary and Conclusions 24 • Ex vivo stimulated cytokine inhibition in whole blood ‒ Consistent results across three studies demonstrate marked and sustained inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines and no evidence of tachyphylaxis • Endogenous pharmacodynamic plasma biomarker analysis ‒ A subset of cytokines elevated in HS blood relative to healthy donor but to a lesser extent than observed in the RA-201 study ‒ Zunsemetinib inhibition trends with proinflammatory cytokines were similar in both the HS and RA phase 2a studies ‒ The elevated anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL1RA) was not modulated by zunsemetinib in either the HS or RA phase 2a studies ‒ Acute phase systemic inflammation markers CRP and IL-6 were inhibited by zunsemetinib in both the HS and RA phase 2a studies • RA and HS phase 2a pharmacodynamic analyses demonstrate persistent systemic anti-inflammatory activity for zunsemetinib |
