Apogee Therapeutics ( (APGE) ) has provided an announcement.

On January 6, 2026, Apogee Therapeutics reported positive interim results from a Phase 1b trial of its anti-IL-13 antibody zumilokibart (APG777) in 19 adults with mild-to-moderate asthma and Type 2 inflammation, showing a favorable safety profile, robust and durable suppression of FeNO—a key biomarker linked to asthma exacerbations—through at least 16 weeks for all patients and up to 32 weeks in those with longer follow-up, along with encouraging trends in lung function and other Type 2 biomarkers. The company also highlighted cross-indication signals from its APEX Phase 2 atopic dermatitis program, laid out an aggressive 2026 clinical agenda including multiple Phase 2 data readouts, a planned Phase 3 start in atopic dermatitis by the second half of 2026, and an expanded head-to-head Phase 1b trial of its IL-13/OX40L combination APG279 versus Dupixent, positioning zumilokibart as a potential “pipeline-in-a-product” across dermatology and respiratory markets and reinforcing Apogee’s capacity—backed by long cash runway—to move toward a possible 2029 launch in atopic dermatitis and broader expansion in inflammatory and immunology diseases.

Spark’s Take on APGE Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, APGE is a Neutral.

The score is anchored by a strong balance sheet and favorable technical trend, boosted by positive clinical updates and strengthened funding runway. Offsetting these positives are the pre-revenue profile, sharply widening losses, and substantial ongoing cash burn, which elevate execution and future funding risk.
