Current report

The ALTITUDE® trial is a multi-center, open label, randomized, controlled, dose-escalation Phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ABBV-RGX-314 using suprachoroidal delivery for the treatment of DR. In November 2023, we announced data showing ABBV-RGX-314 was well tolerated at dose levels 1 and 2 and positive signals of efficacy, including 20.8% of patients exhibiting >2-step Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale (DRSS) improvement without additional DR treatment at one year.

Current report

In August 2025, we announced new data from the ALTITUDE trial and plans to initiate a pivotal program. New ALTITUDE trial data demonstrate a durable safety and efficacy profile observed in patients with non-proliferative DR through two years with a single, in-office injection. As of June 9, 2025, ABBV-RGX-314 was well tolerated at dose levels 1, 2 and 3, with no drug-related serious adverse events. No intraocular inflammation was observed through two years at dose level 3 (1.0x10e12 GC/eye) (n=15) with short-course topical prophylactic steroids. In August 2025, we and AbbVie executed an amendment to our collaboration agreement and announced plans to initiate a pivotal two-part placebo-controlled Phase IIb/III trial, with the primary endpoint being ≥2-step DRSS improvement at one year. Site selection for the Phase IIb/III trial is in progress.

Current report

In August 2025, we and AbbVie entered into an amendment to the AbbVie Collaboration Agreement which modifies the development plan and milestone payment structure for the ABBV-RGX-314 DR program. Under the amendment, we will conduct the first registration enabling trial for DR suprachoroidal (SCS) treatment as a combined Phase IIb/III trial performed in two parts (Part 1 and Part 2), and AbbVie will conduct the second registration enabling trial as a separate, standalone Phase III trial. In lieu of the $200.0 million milestone due under the original AbbVie Collaboration Agreement upon first patient dosed in the first registration enabling trial for DR SCS treatment, AbbVie will pay us $100.0 million upon first patient dosed in the Phase IIb/III trial for DR SCS treatment and an additional $100.0 million upon first patient dosed in the subsequent Phase III trial. Also pursuant to the amendment, AbbVie will lead a new Phase IIIb randomized controlled study (the ACHIEVE Study) to assess the injection burden, adverse events, change in disease activity, and long-term preservation of visual acuity of ABBV-RGX-314 in adult participants with neovascular AMD. We will be responsible for our development expenses to conduct Part 1 of the Phase IIb/III trial for DR and the parties will share the development expenses related to Part 2 of the Phase IIb/III trial and the subsequent Phase III trial for DR in accordance with the existing terms of the AbbVie Collaboration Agreement. AbbVie will be responsible for all development expenses related to the ACHIEVE Study.

Current report

an increase of $2.0 million in personnel-related costs as a result of increased headcount of development personnel, net of a $1.7 million decrease in stock-based compensation expense.

Current report

The increase in research and development expenses was partially offset by a decrease of $2.7 million in overall costs for clinical trials, preclinical activities and other early-stage development.

Current report

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $17.1 million, from $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 to $19.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to interest expense under our royalty monetization liabilities, driven largely by an increase in forecasted Zolgensma royalties expected to be paid to HCR under the 2020 Royalty Purchase Agreement and interest expense incurred to date under the 2025 Royalty Bond issued in May 2025.

Current report

In May 2025, we entered into a loan agreement with HCR pursuant to which HCR will provide us with an aggregate limited recourse loan of up to $250.0 million (the 2025 Royalty Bond). The 2025 Royalty Bond is disbursable to us in three tranches, with $150.0 million funded on the closing date in May 2025, $50.0 million available to be funded if sales of a specified product exceed a specified sales threshold prior to December 31, 2026, and $50.0 million available to be funded if both parties exercise an option in 2027. Proceeds received from the initial funding tranche of the 2025 Royalty Bond in May 2025, net of discounts and transaction costs, were $144.5 million. The 2025 Royalty Bond matures in 2035, subject to potential extension, and bears interest at a rate of 9.75% plus the 3-month secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (SOFR), with a minimum interest rate of 14.0%. Prior to the maturity date, interest and principal under the 2025 Royalty Bond shall be paid quarterly to HCR solely from proceeds received, net of upstream obligations to licensors, from certain specified royalties, milestone payments, license fees and other consideration payable to us under the Zolgensma license with Novartis Gene Therapies, the Nippon Shinyaku Collaboration Agreement and certain other NAV Technology Platform license agreements.

Current report

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, our net cash provided by financing activities primarily consisted of $144.5 million in proceeds received from the issuance of the 2025 Royalty Bond and warrants to HCR in May 2025, net of discounts and transaction costs paid during the period, and was partially offset by $10.9 million of royalties paid, net of interest, under our royalty monetization liabilities.

Previous wording

In February 2024, we announced that, in the pivotal phase of the Phase I/II/III CAMPSIITE® trial, RGX-121 achieved its primary endpoint, a reduction in cerebrospinal fluid Heparan sulfate levels of D2S6, a biomarker indicative of brain disease activity, with statistical significance. In September 2024, we announced positive data from the pivotal dose level of RGX-121 demonstrating long-term systemic effect. We plan to use levels of cerebrospinal fluid Heparan sulfate D2S6 as a surrogate endpoint reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit for accelerated approval. A BLA for RGX-121 seeking accelerated approval was submitted to the FDA in March 2025, which we believe is likely to be eligible for priority review. We expect potential FDA approval of RGX-121 in the second half of 2025.

We expect that our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2025 will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements, and are sufficient to meet our financial commitments and obligations, for at least the next 12 months from the date of this report based on our current business plan.

Previous wording

Our net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by $89.1 million from the three months ended March 31, 2024, largely as a result of the $110.0 million up-front fee received from Nippon Shinyaku in March 2025. We expect to continue to incur regular net cash outflows from operations for the foreseeable future as we continue the development and advancement of our product candidates and other research programs.

Current wording

Our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased by $85.2 million from the six months ended June 30, 2024, largely as a result of the $110.0 million up-front fee received from Nippon Shinyaku in March 2025.

Previous wording

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our net cash provided by operating activities of $33.6 million consisted of net income of $6.1 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $11.1 million and favorable changes in operating assets and liabilities of $16.4 million. Adjustments for non-cash items primarily consisted of stock-based compensation expense of $8.5 million and depreciation and amortization expense of $4.0 million, partially offset by the accretion of discounts on marketable debt securities during the period. The changes in operating assets and liabilities include an increase of $39.8 million in deferred revenue, which was driven primarily by the deferred portion of the $110.0 million up-front payment received under our collaboration with Nippon Shinyaku in the first quarter of 2025. The favorable changes in operating assets and liabilities were partially offset by a decrease in total accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $18.1 million, which was largely driven by decreases in accrued personnel-related expenses, royalties and external research and development services, as well as a total increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $4.3 million, which was driven primarily by increases in prepaid software licenses and net cost reimbursement due from AbbVie under our ABBV-RGX-314 collaboration. Other changes in operating working capital occurred in the normal course of business.

Previous wording

We have incurred cumulative losses since our inception and had an accumulated deficit of $926.1 million as of March 31, 2025. Our transition to recurring profitability is dependent upon achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our cost structure, which depends heavily on the successful development, approval and commercialization of our product candidates. We do not expect to achieve such revenues, and expect to continue to incur losses, for at least the next several years. We expect to continue to incur significant research and development and general and administrative expenses for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of, and seek regulatory approval for, our product candidates. Subject to obtaining regulatory approval for our product candidates, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses for product sales, marketing, manufacturing and distribution. Additionally, we expect to continue to incur capital expenditures associated with building out additional laboratory and manufacturing capacity to further support the development of our product candidates and potential commercialization efforts. As a result, we will need significant additional capital to fund our operations, which we may obtain through one or more equity offerings, debt financings or other third-party funding, including potential strategic alliances and licensing or collaboration arrangements.
