Current report
On August 18, 2026, we announced positive topline results from LUCIDITY. Participants were randomized 3:2 to receive either 90 mg avexitide subcutaneously once daily or placebo. LUCIDITY met the prespecified primary endpoint demonstrating a 55% reduction in the composite rate of Level 2 and Level 3 hypoglycemic events compared to placebo (p=0.000003). In addition, LUCIDITY met all secondary endpoints demonstrating consistent, highly statistically significant, and clinically meaningful reductions in Level 2 hypoglycemic events by self-monitoring of blood glucose, or SMBG, Level 2 hypoglycemic events by continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, and Level 3 hypoglycemic events. Avexitide was generally well-tolerated through the double-blind study period with a consistent and favorable safety profile replicated across all six PBH clinical trials completed to date. The majority of adverse events in LUCIDITY were mild to moderate, and there were no serious adverse events related to avexitide treatment. The most common adverse events were diarrhea, injection site erythema, and injection site bruising. There were no changes in body weight observed in either the avexitide or placebo groups over the 16-week, double-blind period of the LUCIDITY trial.
Current report
We plan to submit a New Drug Application, or NDA, for avexitide to the FDA by the end of 2026. The FDA previously granted avexitide Breakthrough Therapy Designation for PBH. LUCIDITY’s 32-week open label extension remains ongoing. The avexitide expanded access program that was announced in May 2026 also remains ongoing. We anticipate a commercial launch in 2027, if approved.

Previous report
In the Phase 2 (PREVENT), 28-day, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial (n=18), results showed a significant reduction in rates of Level 2 and 3 hypoglycemic events in participants with PBH after RYGB surgery following treatment with 30 mg twice daily and 60 mg once daily of avexitide compared with placebo. PREVENT’s primary endpoint was met with statistical significance, showing both avexitide dosing regimens improved the lowest glucose level
Previous report
(nadir) after a meal as measured during formal mixed meal tolerance testing, or MMTT. Mean plasma glucose nadir was increased by 21% (p=0.001) and 26% (p=0.0002) following avexitide 30 mg twice daily and 60 mg once daily dosing, respectively, compared to placebo. Avexitide was generally well-tolerated. The most common adverse events, or AEs, were injection site bruising, headache, and nausea; these occurred more often with placebo than either avexitide dose. No participants withdrew due to AEs.
Previous report
In the Phase 2b, 28-day, open-label, investigator-initiated, crossover trial (n=16), 90 mg once daily and 45 mg twice daily of avexitide met its primary endpoint and significantly reduced rates of hypoglycemic events in participants following a variety of upper gastrointestinal surgeries, including RYGB, sleeve gastrectomy, esophagectomy, Nissen fundoplication, and gastrectomy. Participants in the Phase 2b trial receiving 90 mg once daily of avexitide, the dose we are evaluating in LUCIDITY, saw a statistically significant 53% reduction in Level 2 hypoglycemic events (p=0.004) and a statistically significant 66% reduction in Level 3 hypoglycemic events (p=0.0003). There were no reported serious AEs, and AEs were mostly mild to moderate and resolved without medical treatment. The most common AEs included diarrhea, headache, bloating, and injection site reaction/bruising. No participant withdrew due to AEs. In the Phase 2b trial, 90 mg once daily of avexitide has also demonstrated a favorable pharmacokinetic profile maintaining exposure in the therapeutic range through 24 hours, supporting once daily dosing.
Previous report
Avexitide was generally well-tolerated, with a favorable safety profile replicated across the five previous clinical trials in people with PBH. In addition, avexitide demonstrated a clear GLP-1 antagonist pharmacodynamic effect, including lowering insulin and raising the glucose nadir, in healthy volunteers.
Previous report
In July 2025, we presented new exploratory analyses from the Phase 2 PREVENT and Phase 2b clinical trials of avexitide for the treatment of PBH at the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting. In the Phase 2b trial, avexitide 90 mg once daily led to a 64% least-squares mean reduction (p=0.0031) versus baseline in the composite rate of Level 2 and Level 3 hypoglycemic events in PBH, with more than half of the participants experiencing no events during the treatment period. The 45 mg twice daily, 30 mg twice daily, and 60 mg once daily dose regimens all likewise demonstrated consistent reductions in composite rate of Level 2 and Level 3 hypoglycemic events. New pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data were also presented, demonstrating continuous pharmacologic activity of the 90 mg once daily dose regimen for a 24-hour period.
Previous report
In May 2026, we announced the initiation of an Expanded Access Program (EAP) for the use of avexitide to treat U.S. adults with PBH following RYGB surgery. Initial eligible patients include individuals who have completed the pivotal Phase 3 LUCIDITY clinical trial and participants in a prior trial of avexitide in PBH following RYGB surgery.

Previous wording
LUCIDITY (NCT06747468) is a 78-participant, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of avexitide in participants with PBH following RYGB surgery. The Phase 3 trial is being conducted at 21 sites in the U.S. Participants were randomized 3:2 to receive either 90 mg of avexitide subcutaneously once daily or placebo. The trial includes an up to six-week screening period, including a three-week run-in period, a 16-week double-blind treatment period, and an open-label extension (OLE) period with a duration of 32 weeks. The last participant completed the final trial visit in the 16-week double-blind period of the LUCIDITY trial of avexitide. The primary efficacy objective of LUCIDITY is to evaluate the FDA-agreed-upon primary outcome of reduction in the composite of Level 2 and Level 3 hypoglycemic events through Week 16. Safety and tolerability will also be evaluated. We continue to expect to announce topline data in the third quarter of 2026, and, if approved, a commercial launch in 2027.

We are investigating AMX0035 in Wolfram syndrome, a neurodegenerative disease where ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction are implicated. The FDA and European Medicines Agency, or EMA, previously granted AMX0035 Orphan Drug Designation for Wolfram Syndrome.
Previous wording
Wolfram syndrome is a rare, monogenic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder that progressively impacts multiple organs and systems. Wolfram syndrome is characterized by childhood-onset diabetes mellitus, optic nerve atrophy, and neurodegeneration. Common manifestations of Wolfram syndrome include diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus, gradual vision loss leading to blindness, hearing loss, neurogenic bladder, difficulties with balance and coordination, and difficulty breathing that can lead to respiratory failure and premature mortality. Wolfram syndrome is most commonly caused by pathogenic variants in Wolfram syndrome type 1 gene, or WFS1. Because of the clear link between WFS1 mutations and ER stress, Wolfram syndrome is considered a prototypical ER stress disorder. Wolfram syndrome affects approximately 3,000 people living in the U.S., and there are currently no FDA-approved treatment options.

In May 2025, we announced positive data from HELIOS at Week 48. Consistent with the HELIOS trial’s previously presented primary efficacy outcome of improvement in pancreatic function (as described above), treatment with AMX0035 through Week 48 demonstrated continued and sustained improvement in pancreatic beta cell function. Treatment with AMX0035 from Week 24 to Week 48 also showed sustained improvements or stabilization in glycemic control, as measured by hemoglobin A1c, or HbA1c, and time in target glucose range assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, as well as visual acuity. All participants with available measurements met the responder criteria, defined as either improvement or no change, on both the Patient Global Impression of Change and Clinician Global Impression of Change at Weeks 24 and 48, indicating stability or improvement in their Wolfram syndrome-related symptoms. Results from qualitative on-study interviews further supported the potential positive impact of AMX0035 on symptom burden. In June 2026, we presented longer-term Week 96 (n=9) data from HELIOS. At Week 96, measures of pancreatic function and glycemic control were stable or improved relative to baseline in most participants. Visual acuity and patient- and clinician-reported outcomes showed patterns consistent with disease stabilization with interpretation limited by the open-label, single-arm design and small sample size.
Current wording
In October 2024, we announced positive topline data from the Phase 2 open-label HELIOS (NCT05676034) clinical trial of AMX0035 in 12 adults living with Wolfram syndrome. HELIOS is a single-site, single-arm, open-label, proof of biology, Phase 2 trial designed to study the effect of AMX0035 on safety and tolerability, and various measures of endocrinological, neurological, and ophthalmologic function in adult participants living with Wolfram syndrome. At Week 24, treatment with AMX0035 resulted in improvement in pancreatic beta cell function, as measured by C-peptide response, the study’s primary efficacy endpoint,. with improvements or stabilization observed across all secondary endpoints, including hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), time in target glucose range assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, and visual acuity. Longer term data through Week 48 demonstrated continued improvement in pancreatic beta cell function and sustained improvements or stabilization in glycemic control, and visual acuity. All participants with available measurements met the responder criteria, defined as either improvement or no change, on both the Patient Global Impression of Change and Clinician Global Impression of Change at Weeks 24 and 48, indicating stability or improvement in their Wolfram syndrome-related symptoms.

Previous wording
AMX0114 is an investigational antisense oligonucleotide, or ASO, targeting calpain-2, or CAPN2, with FDA Fast Track Designation for the potential treatment of ALS. Decades of scientific literature and published data demonstrate that CAPN2, a protein involved in neurofilament biology, plays an essential role in axonal degeneration, which is a critical effector in the progression of various neurodegenerative diseases including ALS. ALS is a relentlessly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by motor neuron death in the brain and spinal cord. One of the ways ALS progresses is through axonal degeneration, which disrupts neural connectivity and contributes significantly to disease pathology. Motor neuron loss in ALS leads to deteriorating muscle function, the inability to move and speak, respiratory paralysis, and, eventually, death. ALS is defined as a rare disease, but it affects as many as 30,000 adults in the U.S. and 3,000 in Canada. The most common form of the disease is sporadic ALS, with more than 90% of people with ALS showing no clear family history.

Previous wording
In preclinical studies, treatment with AMX0114 resulted in potent, dose-dependent, and durable reduction in CAPN2 mRNA and calpain-2 protein levels in disease-relevant cell models of axonal degeneration. This translated to improved neuronal survival and reductions in extracellular neurofilament light chain, or NfL levels, a broadly researched biomarker for axonal degeneration in ALS, across multiple disease models and paradigms of neuronal injury. AMX0114 was generally well-tolerated in in vivo preclinical safety studies.
Current wording
In nonclinical studies, treatment with AMX0114 resulted in potent, dose-dependent, and durable reduction in CAPN2 mRNA and calpain-2 protein levels in disease-relevant cell models of axonal degeneration.

AMX0114 was generally well-tolerated in in vivo nonclinical safety studies.
Previous wording
In June 2026, we presented Cohort 1 biomarker data at the Annual Meeting of the European Network to Cure ALS. AMX0114 showed no drug-related serious adverse events, or SAEs, and no serious nervous system disorder adverse events, or AEs, in Cohort 1 (lowest dose level 12.5 mg). These safety findings support continued evaluation of AMX0114 at higher dose levels in this multiple ascending dose trial. Biomarker levels, including spectrin breakdown product 145, or SBDP-145, neurofilament light, or NfL, and phosphorylated neurofilament heavy, or pNFH, remained near baseline at Day 145. Cohorts 1 and Cohort 2 (25 mg) are fully enrolled, and Cohort 3 (50 mg) is currently enrolling.

Previous wording
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $38.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $31.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to increases of $6.3 million in consulting and professional services and $1.0 million in payroll and personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million in other expenses. The increase in consulting and professional services was primarily due to increased spend for legal expenses related to the settlement of the February 2024 Shih Complaint, as well as an increase in commercial and marketing activity as we prepare for a potential commercial launch of avexitide, if approved. The increase in payroll and personnel-related costs was primarily due to hiring additional personnel to support our pre-commercialization activities.

In October 2024, we announced positive topline data from the Phase 2 open-label HELIOS (NCT05676034) clinical trial of AMX0035 in 12 adults living with Wolfram syndrome. HELIOS is a single-site, single-arm, open-label, proof of biology, Phase 2 trial designed to study the effect of AMX0035 on safety and tolerability, and various measures of endocrinological, neurological, and ophthalmologic function in adult participants living with Wolfram syndrome. HELIOS showed improvement in pancreatic beta cell function, as measured by C-peptide response after 24 weeks of treatment with AMX0035, the study’s primary efficacy endpoint, in contrast to the expected decrease in pancreatic function with disease progression. Similar overall improvements or stabilization were observed across all secondary endpoints, including hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), time in target glucose range assessed by continuous glucose monitoring, and visual acuity. In addition, longer-term data for all participants who completed Week 36 (n=10) and Week 48 (n=6) assessments showed sustained improvement over time.
