Invivyd Provides Another Positive SARS-CoV-2 Variant Data Analysis to Satisfy U.S. FDA’s Gating Request for Completing Its Review of EUA Request for PEMGARDA™ (pemivibart) for the Treatment of Mild-to-Moderate COVID-19 in Certain Immunocompromised Patients

 

 

WALTHAM, Mass., Jan. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Invivyd, Inc. (Nasdaq: IVVD), a biopharmaceutical company devoted to delivering protection from serious viral infectious diseases, today announced the submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of an updated immunobridging analysis of pemivibart as ongoing support of a potential amendment to the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for pemivibart, a half-life extended investigational monoclonal antibody (mAb), to include the treatment of mild-to-moderate symptomatic COVID-19 in certain immunocompromised patients for whom alternative COVID-19 treatment options are not accessible or clinically appropriate. PEMGARDA™ (pemivibart) received an EUA from the FDA in March 2024 for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) of COVID-19 in certain adults and adolescents with moderate-to-severe immune compromise.

This updated treatment immunobridging analysis, incorporating dominant SARS-CoV-2 variant XEC neutralization data, is similar to the approach and data that supported the PEMGARDA PrEP EUA. The updated analysis is in line with the prior, positive treatment immunobridging analyses of pemivibart

versus its parent molecule, adintrevimab, and other comparator mAbs based on prior virus variants, previously submitted to the FDA in mid-2024 and late-2024 in support of the company’s EUA amendment request for COVID-19 treatment.

The comparison between pemivibart and adintrevimab illustrates serum virus neutralizing antibody (sVNA) titers, the clinical measure of antiviral activity, conferred by pemivibart substantially exceed those of adintrevimab for the first four days post dosing, after which titers fall modestly below. As a long-acting mAb, pemivibart would be expected to exert meaningful antiviral activity for many months following a single dose. In the STAMP clinical trial, adintrevimab conferred the majority of its maximum antiviral effect by Day 5 and demonstrated a viral load reduction generally in line with PAXLOVID®1. Because pemivibart is dosed intravenously, higher serum drug concentration and corresponding antiviral activity are delivered immediately, compared to the slower distribution of intramuscularly administered adintrevimab. Pemivibart’s pharmacodynamic profile therefore may have some benefit in modifying viral infection and associated clinical outcomes as compared to adintrevimab. Prior randomized control trials of COVID-19 mAbs have underscored the benefit of deploying maximum antiviral activity as early as possible in the treatment of active infection in avoiding hospitalization and adverse morbid/mortal outcomes2. If an EUA amendment for COVID-19 treatment is granted, Invivyd intends to assess the virologic profile of pemivibart in a clinical study designed in collaboration with the FDA.

The standing treatment EUA request supporting pemivibart for the treatment of COVID-19 in certain immunocompromised patients for whom alternative COVID-19 treatment options, such as PAXLOVID® (nirmatrelvir) therapy, are not accessible or clinically appropriate, relies on the safety profile and sVNA titers of PEMGARDA demonstrated in the CANOPY Phase 3 clinical trial. Following the four cases of anaphylaxis seen in the CANOPY clinical trial, no reports of anaphylaxis have been identified to date during post-authorization use of PEMGARDA across potentially thousands of PEMGARDA doses administered in clinical practice.

“Current therapies for COVID-19 have significant limitations, for example the drug-drug interaction complications imposed by nirmatrelvir create clinical circumstances in which standard of care may not be possible or appropriate for patients in need. Patients – particularly the millions of Americans who are immunocompromised – desperately need more and better therapeutic options because COVID-19 is not going away. Monoclonal antibodies have been highly attractive therapeutic options in the past and the community would welcome the return of a therapeutic mAb,” said Amesh Adalja, MD, FIDSA, FACP, FACEP, Senior Scholar, Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security.

The EUA process does not rely on a statutory timeline such as the timelines embedded into the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA)-based regulatory actions such as New Drug Application (NDA) or Biologics License Application (BLA) approval processes. Invivyd initially submitted a package to the FDA in support of a COVID-19 treatment EUA amendment request in July 2024, and since has provided consistent, timely updates to the FDA as SARS-CoV-2 virus variation has presented and as Invivyd has generated data in its ongoing industrial virology effort. Of note, given robust and consistent generation of sVNA titers, the direct expression of antibody antiviral activity, and comparability across multiple

antibodies, Invivyd believes that the performance of Invivyd antibodies based on sVNA titers represents a well-supported surrogate endpoint and should be considered for approval beyond EUA to enable pemivibart to remain a long-term option for vulnerable, immunocompromised persons.

About PEMGARDA
PEMGARDA™ (pemivibart) is a half-life extended investigational monoclonal antibody (mAb). PEMGARDA was engineered from adintrevimab, Invivyd’s investigational mAb that has a robust safety data package and provided evidence of clinical efficacy in global Phase 2/3 clinical trials for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. PEMGARDA has demonstrated in vitro neutralizing activity against major SARS-CoV-2 variants, including JN.1, KP.3.1.1 and XEC. PEMGARDA targets the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD), thereby inhibiting virus attachment to the human ACE2 receptor on host cells.

PEMGARDA (pemivibart) injection (4500 mg), for intravenous use is an investigational mAb that has not been approved, but has been authorized for emergency use by the U.S. FDA under an EUA for the pre-exposure prophylaxis (prevention) of COVID-19 in adults and adolescents (12 years of age and older weighing at least 40 kg) who have moderate-to-severe immune compromise due to certain medical conditions or receipt of certain immunosuppressive medications or treatments and are unlikely to mount an adequate immune response to COVID-19 vaccination. Recipients should not be currently infected with or have had a known recent exposure to an individual infected with SARS-CoV-2.

PEMGARDA is not authorized for use for treatment of COVID-19 or post-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19. Pre-exposure prophylaxis with PEMGARDA is not a substitute for vaccination in individuals for whom COVID-19 vaccination is recommended. Individuals for whom COVID-19 vaccination is recommended, including individuals with moderate-to-severe immune compromise who may derive benefit from COVID-19 vaccinations, should receive COVID-19 vaccination. In individuals who have recently received a COVID-19 vaccine, PEMGARDA should be administered at least 2 weeks after vaccination.

Anaphylaxis has been observed with PEMGARDA and the PEMGARDA Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers includes a boxed warning for anaphylaxis. The most common adverse events (all grades, incidence ≥2%) observed in participants who have moderate-to-severe immune compromise treated with PEMGARDA included systemic and local infusion-related or hypersensitivity reactions, upper respiratory tract infection, viral infection, influenza-like illness, fatigue, headache, and nausea. For additional information, please see the PEMGARDA full product Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers, including important safety information and boxed warning.

To support the EUA for PEMGARDA, an immunobridging approach was used to determine if PEMGARDA may be effective for pre-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19. Immunobridging is based on the serum virus neutralizing titer-efficacy relationships identified with other neutralizing human mAbs against SARS-CoV-2. This includes adintrevimab, the parent mAb of pemivibart, and other mAbs that were previously authorized for EUA. There are limitations of the data supporting the benefits of PEMGARDA. Evidence of clinical efficacy for other neutralizing human mAbs against SARS-CoV-2 was based on different populations and SARS-CoV-2 variants that are no longer circulating. Further, the variability associated with cell-based EC50 value determinations, along with limitations related to pharmacokinetic data and efficacy estimates for the mAbs in prior clinical trials, impact the ability to precisely estimate protective titer ranges. Additionally, certain SARS-CoV-2 viral variants may emerge that have substantially reduced

---

susceptibility to PEMGARDA, and PEMGARDA may not be effective at preventing COVID-19 caused by these SARS-CoV-2 viral variants.

The emergency use of PEMGARDA is only authorized for the duration of the declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of the emergency use of drugs and biological products during the COVID-19 pandemic under Section 564(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(b)(1), unless the declaration is terminated or authorization revoked sooner. PEMGARDA is authorized for use only when the combined national frequency of variants with substantially reduced susceptibility to PEMGARDA is less than or equal to 90%, based on available information including variant susceptibility to PEMGARDA and national variant frequencies.
