— Enrollment continues in Phase 2 JUNIPER trial of ANG-3070 for the treatment of patients with primary proteinuric kidney diseases — Ended the year with nearly $89M in cash and cash equivalents UNIONDALE, N.Y., March 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Angion Biomedica Corp. (NASDAQ:ANGN), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule therapeutics to address fibrotic diseases, today reported its financial results for full year 2021. “In 2022, we are focused on advancing Angion’s lead clinical development candidate ANG-3070 for the treatment of patients with primary proteinuric kidney diseases and continuing the enrollment of JUNIPER, our Phase 2 dose-finding study in focal segmental glomerular sclerosis and IgA nephropathy patients,” said Dr. Jay R. Venkatesan, Angion’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We also plan to advance ANG-3070 for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and to file an IND by the end of the year in this population in need of additional approved therapies.” Angion’s Strategic Objectives in 2022 Develop ANG-3070 for treatment of patients with primary proteinuric kidney diseases (PPKDs) including focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) and IgA nephropathy (IgAN), which are the subject of Angion’s JUNIPER Phase 2 trialDevelop ANG-3070 for treatment of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), with a planned IND filing in IPF by the end of 2022Nominate a lead compound and initiate IND-enabling studies for one or more of the preclinical rho kinase 2 (ROCK2) or CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) inhibitor programs Corporate News Reported topline results from the Phase 3 trial of ANG-3777 for the treatment of deceased donor kidney transplant patients who were at risk for developing delayed graft function (DGF) and an exploratory Phase 2 trial for the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass who were thought to be at risk for AKI (CSA-AKI). While neither trial achieved statistical significance on its primary endpoint, Angion believes ANG-3777 demonstrated biologic activity in both trials. Angion continues to work with its partner Vifor Pharma on the process of closing out its analyses of data from these trials. Angion does not intend to continue the clinical development plan for ANG-3777 currently set forth in the Vifor License Agreement (“Vifor License”), which had included a Phase 3 study in CSA-AKI and a Phase 4 confirmatory study in DGF. Angion has no funds budgeted for additional clinical trials for ANG-3777.Presented multiple posters at the American Society of Nephrology’s Kidney Week Conference on the activity of ANG-3070 in multiple models of renal fibrosis as well as a presentation on the design of JUNIPER, the Phase 2 trial of ANG-3070 in PPKD patients with FSGS and IgAN.Held an ANG-3070 Virtual R&D Day on September 20, 2021, a recording of which is available on the Events & Presentations page of the company website. Described in greater detail positive data from the Phase 1 healthy volunteer study of ANG-3070Presented preclinical data in several models of kidney and lung fibrosisHeard from experts in kidney fibrosis and lung fibrosis about the unmet medical needs in both indications Ongoing progress on preclinical programs for a ROCK2 inhibitor and a CYP11B2 inhibitor. Full Year 2021 Financial Results As of December 31, 2021, Angion had cash and cash equivalents totaling $88.8 million. Angion expects current cash resources to be sufficient to fund planned operations well into 2023. Contract revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $27.5 million compared with $0.2 million in the same period in 2020. Since Angion does not intend to continue the clinical development plan for ANG-3777 currently set forth in the Vifor License, which had included a Phase 3 study in CSA-AKI and a Phase 4 confirmatory study in DGF, Angion performed a reassessment of the performance period and estimated costs for the completion of the performance obligations. This accelerated the revenue recognition related to the upfront payment received by Angion from Vifor Pharma when the Vifor License was entered into in 2020. Grant revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $0.8 million compared with $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease was attributable to a decrease in reimbursable costs relating to Angion’s grant from the Department of Defense (DOD) for the year ended December 31, 2021. Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $48.7 million compared with $39.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in 2021 was primarily due to increases in headcount and personnel-related expenses in the amount of $8.5 million, including salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation expenses, and an increase of $1.0 million in expenses related to third-party clinical trial and manufacturing activities expenses, primarily related to the development of ANG-3777 and ANG-3070. The increase in research and development expenses in 2021 was partially offset by an employee retention credit of $1.2 million received in 2021 as a reduction to payroll taxes. General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $18.5 million compared with $18.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase of $2.5 million of personnel-related expenses, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation expenses, resulting from increases in headcount, an increase of $2.7 million of corporate fees mainly due to purchase of business insurance, offset by a decrease of $5.1 million of professional fees for legal, consulting, accounting, tax and other services primarily associated with preparing the company for the initial public offering in 2020. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $54.6 million, or $1.93 per basic and diluted share, compared with $80.1 million, or $5.43 per basic and diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2020. The decrease in loss per share was primarily due to revenue recognized related to the Vifor License during the year ended 2021 and the increase in shares outstanding related to the 2021 IPO.
