Alector reported collaboration revenue of $182.4 million, primarily driven by the recognition of $179.8 million from the GSK collaboration. Net income for the quarter was $126.6 million, or $1.56 per share, and cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $777.9 million as of September 30, 2021.
Alector initiated a Phase 2 clinical trial of AL001 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients with a C9orf72 genetic mutation.
AL001 received orphan drug designation from the European Commission for the treatment of frontotemporal dementia.
Twelve-month data from the open-label INFRONT-2 Phase 2 clinical trial of AL001 in patients with frontotemporal dementia with a progranulin mutation (FTD-GRN) were presented at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) held in July 2021, showing a favorable safety profile and encouraging evidence that treatment may slow disease progression.
Alector and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) entered into a global collaboration to co-develop and co-commercialize AL001 and AL101 for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, including FTD-GRN, as well as other forms of FTD, ALS, Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
