Insights
Immunovant shows strong pipeline progress with IMVT-1402 in six indications, but widening losses despite $714M cash runway through 2027.
Immunovant's quarterly report reveals a company transitioning from early-stage development to a multi-indication late-stage clinical organization. The most significant development is the aggressive expansion of IMVT-1402's clinical program into six distinct autoimmune indications, with potentially registrational trials in five of these areas. This broad approach substantially increases their addressable market potential.
The positive data from batoclimab trials in myasthenia gravis and CIDP are particularly encouraging. In MG, the higher dose arm achieved a
Financially, Immunovant reported a cash position of
The leadership changes with Roivant increasing operational involvement signal a strategic shift, likely aimed at maximizing the value of their expanding clinical pipeline. This restructuring, combined with the accelerated development timeline for multiple indications, suggests a more aggressive approach to bringing their assets to market.
The upcoming catalysts include batoclimab six-month remission data from the Graves' disease study and Phase 3 thyroid eye disease data expected in the second half of 2025, which will be critical valuation inflection points for investors to monitor.
Promising clinical data for IMVT-1402 across multiple autoimmune indications shows correlation between IgG reduction and clinical improvement.
The clinical development strategy for IMVT-1402 represents one of the most ambitious programs in the autoimmune space, targeting six indications simultaneously. The decision to pursue potentially registrational trials in five indications (GD, D2T RA, MG, CIDP, and SjD) suggests strong confidence in the drug's mechanism and preliminary efficacy signals.
The positive batoclimab data in MG is particularly noteworthy, with the primary endpoint being met and showing a dose-response relationship. The
The correlation between IgG reduction and clinical efficacy across multiple endpoints and timepoints is mechanistically consistent and supports the company's hypothesis that deeper IgG suppression leads to better outcomes. This dose-response relationship will likely inform optimal dosing strategies for IMVT-1402.
The expansion into Sjögren's disease is particularly interesting as this represents an area of significant unmet need with limited treatment options. Similarly, the proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus could open up another first-in-class opportunity.
The aggressive timeline, with two new registrational trials planned for summer 2025, reflects the competitive landscape in the FcRn inhibitor space. Immunovant appears to be positioning IMVT-1402 as a potential best-in-class agent based on the observed IgG reduction profile, which could differentiate it from competitors if the safety profile remains favorable across these expanded indications.
The upcoming GD remission data and TED Phase 3 results will provide critical validation of this approach across different autoimmune pathologies and set expectations for the broader development program.
- Immunovant’s new management team is focused on rapid clinical execution for the six announced indications for IMVT-1402, including a second potentially registrational study in Graves’ disease (GD) and a potentially registrational study in Sjögren’s disease (SjD), both expected to start in summer 2025
- Positive data from first-generation batoclimab trials in myasthenia gravis (MG) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) demonstrated that deeper IgG reductions correlated with improved clinical outcomes across a range of assessments and timepoints suggesting a potential best-in-class efficacy profile for IMVT-1402
- Current cash balance provides runway for announced indications through GD readout expected in 2027
NEW YORK, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Immunovant, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMVT), a clinical-stage immunology company dedicated to enabling normal lives for people with autoimmune diseases, today reported corporate updates and financial results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 31, 2025.
Recent Highlights and Upcoming Milestones:
In April 2025, Immunovant announced changes to its leadership team as part of a broader strategic transition with Roivant increasing operational involvement and oversight of Immunovant. Eric Venker, M.D. was appointed as CEO of Immunovant, and Tiago Girao as CFO of Immunovant. Given the strength of its potential best-in-class profile, IMVT-1402 is being developed in six announced indications, including potentially registrational trials in Graves’ disease (GD), difficult-to-treat rheumatoid arthritis (D2T RA), myasthenia gravis (MG), chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) and Sjögren’s disease (SjD), and a proof-of-concept trial in cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE).
In March 2025, Immunovant announced positive results from its batoclimab MG and CIDP studies. The potentially registrational study in MG met its primary endpoint of change from baseline in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score in the AChR+ population at week 12, with the higher dose arm achieving a 5.6-point improvement (with
In March 2025, Immunovant initiated a potentially registrational trial of IMVT-1402 in adult participants with active, anti-citrullinated protein autoantibody (ACPA) positive D2T RA and a proof-of-concept study in CLE. Both indications represent potential first-in-class and best-in-class opportunities based on positive in-class competitor data (D2T RA) and promising efficacy data from patients dosed with IMVT-1402 as part of an open-label case study program (CLE).
Immunovant plans to initiate a potentially registrational trial evaluating IMVT-1402 in SjD and a second potentially registrational trial in GD in the summer of 2025.
Immunovant expects to report batoclimab six-month remission data from the proof-of-concept study in GD in the summer of 2025 and Phase 3 thyroid eye disease (TED) data in the second half of calendar year 2025.
