AN2 Therapeutics reports Q2 EPS (21c) vs. (48c) last year

“We saw continued momentum this quarter across our boron chemistry pipeline as we look to develop high-impact drugs that address serious and overlooked conditions. In our Chagas disease program, we recently dosed the first Phase 1 cohort and announced a collaboration with the Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative that will rapidly advance preparations for our Phase 2 study and allow us to maintain critical investments in our other programs. In melioidosis, observational data shared this quarter underscore the acute lethality of this potential biothreat, emphasizing its potential danger to homeland security and to U.S. troops serving abroad. And in NTM, we presented preclinical data highlighting the therapeutic potential of epetraborole as a once daily oral treatment against M. abscessus, a disease with an 8-year all-cause mortality rate of 45% and burdensome IV treatments that are not FDA approved for the disease. We are actively exploring plans to initiate a proof-of-concept trial in M. abscessus and will provide an update in the coming months,” said Eric Easom, Co-Founder, Chairman, President, and CEO of AN2 Therapeutics (ANTX).
