ImmunoGen, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMGN), a biotechnology company that develops targeted anticancer therapeutics using its ADC technology, today reported financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 – the first quarter of the Company’s 2016 fiscal year. ImmunoGen also provided an update on product programs and reiterated its guidance for its 2016 fiscal year.
“We believe mirvetuximab soravtansine has the potential to make an important difference for many patients with FRα-positive cancers and look forward to the upcoming data presentations at AACR-NCI-EORTC,” commented Daniel Junius, President and CEO. “Of particular note are the findings suggesting that the level of FRα expression on patient tumors has a marked impact on response to mirvetuximab soravtansine. As noted in the abstract that became public yesterday, the response rate was 53% for the patients reported at ASCO and 80% in the subset with the highest expression – about half of the 22 patients treated. Updated response data, including duration, for these patients will be reported at AACR-NCI-EORTC.”
Mr. Junius continued, “We are successfully executing on all of our product programs – completing enrollment in the 40-patient ovarian cancer Phase 1 expansion cohort well ahead of plan, moving forward with combination strategies for our two ADCs for B-cell malignancies, and submitting the IND for our fourth wholly owned program, IMGN779, to the FDA on schedule. There also has been notable progress by a number of our partners.”
Updates on Product Programs
Mirvetuximab soravtansine (formerly IMGN853) – for FRα-positive cancers including ovarian cancer.
IMGN529 and coltuximab ravtansine (formerly SAR3419) – for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and potentially other B-cell malignancies.
IMGN779 – CD33-targeting ADC for acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome; utilizes the first of ImmunoGen's new DNA-acting payload agents.
Partner compounds – Recent highlights include:
There are now seven companies with novel anticancer compounds in the clinic utilizing ImmunoGen’s technology: Amgen, Bayer, Biotest, Genentech/Roche, Lilly, Novartis and Sanofi. Companies advancing earlier-stage ADCs include CytomX and Takeda.
Financial Results
For the Company’s quarter ended September 30, 2015 (1QFY2016), ImmunoGen reported a net loss of $33.7 million, or $0.39 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $22.3 million, or $0.26 per basic and diluted share, for the same quarter last year (1QFY2015).
Revenues for 1QFY2016 were $14.9 million, compared to $13.2 million for 1QFY2015. They include $6.1 million of license and milestone fees, comprised principally of a $5 million milestone earned from Lilly and a $1 million milestone earned from Amgen with the advancement by each of an ADC with ImmunoGen technology. Revenues also include $5.7 million of non-cash royalties on Roche sales of Kadcyla for the three-months ended June 30, 2015. Additionally, revenues for 1QFY2016 include $2.3 million of clinical materials revenue and $0.8 million of research and development support fees. The level of research support and the number of batches of clinical materials produced and released to partners varies on a quarter-to-quarter basis.
Operating expenses in 1QFY2016 were $43.5 million, compared to $35.1 million in 1QFY2015. Operating expenses in 1QFY2016 include research and development expenses of $35.1 million, compared to $28.0 million in 1QFY2015. This change is primarily due to increased third-party costs related to the advancement of our wholly owned product candidates, increased clinical trial costs, primarily related to our expansion of the mirvetuximab soravtansine development program, and increased personnel expenses, principally due to recent hiring. Operating expenses include general and administrative expenses of $8.3 million in 1QFY2016, compared to $7.1 million in 1QFY2015. This increase is primarily due to increased personnel expenses and professional services.
ImmunoGen had approximately $247.8 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2015, compared with $278.1 million as of June 30, 2015, and had no debt outstanding in either period. Cash used in operations was $31.4 million in the first three months of FY2016, compared with $18.9 million in the same period in FY2015. Capital expenditures were $3.4 million and $1.7 million for the first three months of FY2016 and FY2015, respectively.
Financial Guidance for Fiscal Year 2016
ImmunoGen’s financial guidance remains unchanged from that issued in July 2015. ImmunoGen expects: its revenues to be between $70 million and $80 million; its operating expenses to be between $175 million and $180 million; its net loss to be between $120 million and $125 million; its cash used in operations to be between $100 million and $105 million; and its capital expenditures to be between $13 million and $15 million. Cash and marketable securities at June 30, 2016 are anticipated to be between $165 million and $170 million.
