Prothena reports Q1 EPS 60c vs ($1.12) last year

“In the quarter we were encouraged by updates on our partnered Phase 3 clinical programs. Roche delivered several presentations highlighting the potential of prasinezumab for Parkinson’s disease at AD/PD 2026, including a ‘time saved’ analysis demonstrating approximately two years in delay of disease progression over a five year period from the PASADENA open-label extension study, longer-term data from the PADOVA open-label extension study showing a sustained effect of prasinezumab on disease progression, and exploratory biomarker analyses of the PADOVA trial suggesting that prasinezumab may impact the underlying disease biology. Novo Nordisk recently obtained Fast Track designation from the U.S. FDA for coramitug in ATTR-CM and delivered $50 million to Prothena (PRTA) upon achievement of a Phase 3 clinical milestone,” said Gene Kinney, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer, Prothena. “In addition, we are engaged in multiple research collaborations with industry partners exploring the potential of our CYTOPE(R) technology. Finally, our team continues to explore additional research collaborations and licensing partnerships to further advance our programs.”
