\n\u201c2025 promises to be an exciting year for Astria, and we are building on the momentum from a successful 2024 with the initiation of two important clinical trials,\u201d said Jill C. Milne, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer at Astria Therapeutics. \u201cWith the ALPHA-ORBIT Phase 3 trial of navenibart, we are enabling the potential for HAE patients to break free from the gravity of their disease and supporting low treatment burden by including both every 3-month and every 6-month regimens in a single trial. We believe that navenibart has the potential to be the market-leading therapy for HAE, and we look forward to building on our track record of strong execution throughout the trial. We also initiated a clinical trial evaluating STAR-0310 in healthy subjects and expect these results will demonstrate STAR-0310\u2019s differentiated profile in the third quarter this year.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
Navenibart (STAR-0215)<\/b><\/p>\n STAR-0310<\/b><\/p>\n Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results<\/b><\/p>\n Cash Position:<\/b> As of December 31, 2024, Astria had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $328.1 million, compared to $246.5 million as of December 31, 2023. The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments as of December 31, 2024 will be sufficient to fund its operations into mid-2027, including (i) for navenibart, support for all program activities through completion of our ALPHA-ORBIT Phase 3 trial, including activities related to the planned ORBIT-EXPANSE long-term trial and Phase 3 development and testing of drug device combinations for potential dosing of navenibart, and (ii) for STAR-0310, the completion of the ongoing Phase 1a clinical trial of healthy subjects and any related anticipated milestone payments. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $17.4 million, compared to $30.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities for the full year 2024 was $81.2 million, compared to $68.4 million for the full year 2023.\n<\/p>\n R&D Expenses:<\/b> Research and development expenses were $20.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $11.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $77.1 million for the full year 2024, compared to $42.1 million for the full year 2023. The increase in research and development expenses was attributed to an increase in external expenses for the navenibart ALPHA-STAR and ALPHA-SOLAR clinical trials and start-up activities to support the ALPHA-ORBIT Phase 3 trial in addition to external research, manufacturing, and IND-enabling activities for the STAR-0310 program.\n<\/p>\n G&A Expenses:<\/b> General and administrative expenses were $9.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $7.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $34.5 million for the full year 2024, compared to $25.7 million for the full year 2023. The increase in general and administrative expenses was attributable to stock-based compensation and company growth to support the advancement of our programs.\n<\/p>\n Operating Loss: <\/b>Loss from operations was $29.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $34.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $111.6 million for the full year 2024, compared to $83.0 million for the full year 2023.\n<\/p>\n Net Loss: <\/b>Net loss was $25.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $31.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $94.3 million for the full year 2024, compared to $72.9 million for the full year 2023.\n<\/p>\n Net Loss Per Share Basic and Diluted: <\/b>Net loss per share basic and diluted was $0.44 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, compared to $0.86 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $1.68 per share for the full year 2024, compared to $2.42 per share for the full year 2023.\n<\/p>\n About Astria Therapeutics: Forward Looking Statements: \nNew risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties.
