Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Inozyme Pharma, Inc. (the “Company”) is a clinical-stage rare disease biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics for the treatment of diseases of abnormal mineralization impacting the vasculature, soft tissue and skeleton. The Company is pursuing the development of therapeutics to address the underlying causes of these debilitating diseases. It is well established that two genes, ENPP1 and ABCC6, play key roles in a critical mineralization pathway and that defects in these genes lead to abnormal mineralization. The Company is initially focused on developing a novel therapy to treat rare genetic diseases of ENPP1 Deficiency and ABCC6 Deficiency. The Company’s lead product candidate, INZ-701, is a soluble, recombinant, or genetically engineered, fusion protein that is designed to correct a defect in the mineralization pathway caused by ENPP1 and ABCC6 Deficiencies. This pathway is central to the regulation of calcium deposition throughout the body and is further associated with neointimal proliferation, or the overgrowth of smooth muscle cells inside blood vessels.
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for audited year-end financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period results. The results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, any other interim periods, or any future year or period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to authoritative U.S. GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern Since the Company’s incorporation in 2017 and through June 30, 2022, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to raising capital, building infrastructure, developing intellectual property and conducting research and development activities. The Company incurred net losses of $32.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $56.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2021 and had an accumulated deficit of $179.8 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $151.5 million as of June 30, 2022. On April 14, 2022, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC and Cowen and Company, LLC , relating to an underwritten offering of 16,276,987 shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Shares") and, in lieu of common stock to certain investors, pre-funded warrants to purchase 3,523,013 shares of common stock. The closing of the offering took place on April 19, 2022. The offering price of the Shares was $3.69 per share and the offering price of the pre-funded warrants was $3.6899 per share underlying each pre-funded warrant. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $68.3 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses. The Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and has primarily funded its operations with proceeds from the issuance of convertible preferred stock and offerings of common stock and pre-funded warrants. The Company expects its operating losses and negative operating cash flows to continue into the foreseeable future as it continues to expand its research and development efforts. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets, and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes its available cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of June 30, 2022 will be sufficient to fund its cash flow requirements for at least twelve months from the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management’s expectations with respect to its ability to fund current and long term planned operations are based on estimates that are subject to risks and uncertainties. If actual results are different from management’s estimates, the Company may need to seek additional strategic or financing opportunities sooner than would otherwise be expected. However, there is no guarantee that any of these strategic or financing opportunities will be executed on favorable terms, or at all, and some could be dilutive to existing stockholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding on a timely basis, it may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate some or all of its research and development programs, portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, which could adversely affect its business. |
