Mereo BioPharma reports Q2 EPS (2c) vs 0c last year

“We continued to make significant progress this quarter highlighted by additional positive data from the Phase 2 portion of the ongoing Phase 2/3 Orbit study in patients with OI,” said Dr. Denise Scots-Knight, Chief Executive Officer of Mereo. “These data showed that the statistically significant annualized fracture rate reduction of 67% was maintained following treatment with setrusumab for at least 14 months of follow-up, further demonstrating the potential of setrusumab to generate long-term, clinically meaningful benefit for people living with OI. On alvelestat, we continue to work through the detailed regulatory submissions to ensure the AATD program is Phase 3-ready by the end of the year, in parallel with our ongoing discussions with multiple potential partners. With the proceeds from our June financing, we are well positioned through our key value inflection milestones and to support the ongoing pre-commercial activities essential for a successful launch of setrusumab in Europe following its potential approval.”
