Invivyd Announces Interim Exploratory Data on VYD222 from Ongoing CANOPY Clinical Trial

  • Analysis of secondary endpoint of symptomatic COVID-19 events in CANOPY is unrelated to regulatory filing or review, but may be hypothesis generating for future Invivyd discovery and development work
  • Today’s update on Day 67 and Day 90 event rates is the first of two planned public updates on symptomatic COVID-19 events in CANOPY; Invivyd plans to analyze all future events at Day 180
  • Further defining the relationship between serum virus neutralizing antibody titers and clinical protection that prospectively builds on published data is an anticipated goal of future clinical trials

WALTHAM, Mass., March 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD), a biopharmaceutical company on a mission to protect the vulnerable from serious viral infectious diseases, today announced interim exploratory COVID-19 clinical event data for VYD222, an investigational, monoclonal antibody (mAb) in development for the pre-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19. The data announced today from the ongoing Phase 3 CANOPY clinical trial reflect and add further to the initial potential signal of clinical protection from symptomatic COVID-19 shared in December 2023, and may be useful in updating prior published work that analyzed the relationships between serum virus neutralizing antibody (sVNA) titers and protection in patients who had no prior exposure to vaccination or natural infection.1

“While these interim clinical efficacy data are exploratory and not part of the primary immunobridging endpoint of the CANOPY clinical trial, we believe they further our efforts to understand the relationship between sVNA titers and clinical efficacy in individuals who have some level of vaccine- or infection-induced immunity,” said Dave Hering, Chief Executive Officer. “As we continue to build out our company and advance the science describing monoclonal antibody pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), we believe we can incorporate these findings into future prospectively designed clinical studies that seek to establish formal relationships between neutralizing titers and protection. Exploratory data such as provided in today’s update are important for broad reflection as they represent some of the first data from a clinical trial conducted with a monoclonal antibody in a population that has acquired prior immune exposure from either vaccination or natural infection. By contrast, studies of prior authorized COVID-19 PrEP mAbs largely relied on participants required by protocol to be naïve to vaccination or prior infection2. As such, these people would presumably have no baseline titers. We continue to explore how measured titers compare with calculated titers and look to assess if higher levels of protection in future studies may be possible with lower levels of additional titers conferred from mAbs.”

The ongoing CANOPY Phase 3 clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VYD222 and to assess immunobridging from VYD222 to certain historical data from the company’s previous Phase 2/3 clinical trial of adintrevimab (ADG20) for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19 (EVADE). Symptomatic COVID-19 event collection in the CANOPY clinical trial is a secondary exploratory endpoint designed to allow Invivyd to contemplate further discovery and development work only. The CANOPY clinical trial enrolled participants in two cohorts. Cohort A is a single-arm, open-label trial in adults who have moderate-to-severe immune compromise including complex underlying medical conditions (n=306). Cohort B is a randomized, placebo-controlled cohort that enrolled adults without moderate-to-severe immune compromise who are at risk of acquiring SARS-CoV-2 due to regular unmasked face-to-face interactions in indoor settings. All CANOPY Cohort A participants received VYD222 administered via intravenous (IV) infusion.  Cohort B participants were randomized 2:1 to receive VYD222 or placebo administered via IV infusion. 

Updated Findings

As previously disclosed by the company in December 2023, a potential early signal of clinical protection from symptomatic COVID-19 confirmed by RT-PCR was observed. Invivyd is now providing an update on the clinical cases of confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 through Day 90. Beyond today’s update, additional cases of COVID-19 have occurred in Cohorts A and B post Day 90. These data are planned to be analyzed at Day 180 and presented when available.

Cohort B (Randomized, placebo-controlled cohort without moderate-to-severe immune compromise at risk of acquiring SARS-CoV-2 due to regular unmasked face-to-face interactions) — Proportion of participants with RT-PCR-confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 (exploratory data):

 As of December 1, 2023
(median 67 days follow-up)
Through Day 90
VYD2220% (0/322)0.3% (1/314)
Placebo3% (5/162)5% (8/159)

Cohort A (Open-label cohort with moderate-to-severe immune compromise) — Proportion of participants with RT-PCR-confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 (exploratory data):

 As of December 1, 2023
(median 35 days follow-up)
Through Day 90
VYD2220% (0/306)1% (3/298)

Additional COVID-19 events have occurred in Cohort A (unblinded) and Cohort B (randomized, not yet analyzed) post Day 90, but the company has not yet analyzed the data. Invivyd plans to provide a Day 180 update and a more complete analysis of the observed relationships between sVNA titers, both calculated and measured, and events of confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 when these data are available.

About VYD222
VYD222 is a neutralizing, half-life extended monoclonal antibody (mAb) candidate being investigated for the pre-exposure prophylaxis (prevention) of COVID-19 in immunocompromised adults and adolescents. VYD222 was designed for broad activity and has demonstrated in vitro neutralizing activity in pseudotyped virus-like particle and authentic virus neutralization assays against various pre-Omicron and Omicron variants, including JN.1. VYD222 was engineered from adintrevimab, Invivyd’s investigational mAb that has a robust safety data package and demonstrated clinically meaningful results in global Phase 2/3 clinical trials for both the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. 

About Invivyd
