HALF YEARLY REPORT FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

 

London, UK., 26 September 2019: ValiRx Plc (AIM: VAL), a life science company, which focuses on clinical stage cancer therapeutic development, taking proprietary and novel technology for precision medicines towards commercialisation and partnering, today announces its Half Yearly Report for the period ended 30 June 2019 and provides an update e on significant post-period events.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

Operational Highlights

·     MHRA and REC approve a major update to the trial of VAL201 including the appointment of a Principal Investigator to the clinical team, with results from the first clinical trial of the compound being prepared for an independent evaluation following the completion of the current patient group.

·     The period saw further strengthening of ValiRx's IP patent portfolio. Grant allowances for VAL301 were permitted for the European Union, China and the Russian Federation, building on an earlier patent granted in 2018 for the US.  VAL201 had its IP protection extended during the period, with a patent grant allowed in the US for the use of the compound in the prevention and treatment of metastatic cancer.  This allowance builds on previously granted worldwide rights for the use of the compound against prostate cancer.

·     ValiRx acquired the IP assets of FIT Biotech OY (announced 2 May 2019) to complement its other drug discovery (drug enhancing) technologies and is currently in discussions with a potential JV partner over further developing certain of the Company's genetic-based diagnostic assets

 

Financial Highlights

·      Loss before income tax narrowed substantially by 56.9% to £927,342 (H1 2018: £2,155,788); largely as a result of a profit on the sale of fixed asset investments and no requirement to manufacture additional VAL201 drug as sufficient quantities were produced in H2 2018; 

·      Total comprehensive loss for the period of £750,569  (H1 2018: £1,914,453);

·      Cash and cash equivalents as at 30 June 2019 of £171,443 (H1 2018: £590,615); and

·      Loss per share - basic and diluted reduced by 78.4% to (0.11)p (H1 2018: (0.51)p.

 

 

Post-Period highlights

·     R&D Tax Credit of £423,000 received in September 2019

·     The Company announced (10 September 2019) that in addition to pharmacokinetic and toxicology data, clinical trial results show VAL201 behaves as predicted in reducing prostate cancer progression - evidence that is supported from tumour imaging (MRI and CT) in subjects.

·    VAL301's clinical team signed an agreement in July 2019 with Aptus Clinical Ltd ("Aptus"), the UK based, clinical Contract Research Organisation ("CRO"), to effectuate a clinical development plan for VAL301 incorporating a Phase I/II study design concept in Endometriosis.

·      Two placings and a subscription raised £1.226m of gross proceeds with existing and new investors. The funds were raised for working capital needs and to progress the development of the Company's therapeutic drug portfolio.

 

Oliver de Giorgio-Miller, Non-Executive Chairman of ValiRx, commented:

"Throughout the reporting period, ValiRx has continued to sustain valuable momentum in terms of progressing its therapeutic assets and along their respective clinical and pre-clinical pathways.  We have made important strides forward across both our therapeutic and technology portfolios, with the expectation that these will deliver added-value in the near term for our shareholders."

Notes for Editors

About ValiRx

ValiRx is a biotechnology oncology focused company specialising in developing novel treatments for cancer and associated biomarkers. It aims to make a significant contribution in "precision" medicine and science, namely to engineer a breakthrough into human health and well-being, through the early detection of cancer and its therapeutic intervention.

The Company's business model focuses on out-licensing therapeutic candidates early in the development process. By aiming for early-stage value creation, the company reduces risk considerably while increasing the potential for realising value. The group is already in licensing discussions with major players in the oncology field.

 

ValiRx's two classes of drugs in development, which each have the potential for meeting hitherto unmet medical needs by existing methods, have worldwide patent filings and agreed commercial rights.   They originate or derive from Word class institutions, such as Cancer Research UK and Imperial College. 

 

Until recently, cancer treatments relied on non-specific agents, such as chemotherapy.  With the development of target-based agents, primed to attack cancer cells only, less toxic and more effective treatments are now possible. New drugs in this group-such as those in ValiRx's pipeline-promise to greatly improve outcomes for cancer patients.

 

The Company listed on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange in October 2006 and trades under the ticker symbol: VAL.

 

 

 

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019

Throughout the reporting period, ValiRx has continued to sustain valuable momentum in terms of progressing its therapeutic assets and along their respective clinical and pre-clinical pathways.

 

VAL201

We were very pleased to announce in June 2019 that based on our clinical results for VAL201, a substantial amendment to the clinical trial protocol had received regulatory approval from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency ("MHRA") and the Research Ethics Committee ("REC"). 

 

Following approval of this substantial amendment, an authoritative prostate cancer specialist, Dr Mark Linch was appointed Principal Investigator to the clinical trial team at University College London Hospital ("UCLH").  Dr Linch is the Consultant Medical Oncologist specialising in the treatment of prostate and bladder cancer at UCLH and as a recognised specialist, we are pleased to benefit from his deep understanding and experience of the condition.

 

To date, the results generated by the trial, showed that the compound is safe and can be given to humans at a therapeutic level and beyond. The approval given to relax the restrictions previously applied to the trial, means that a more effective use of VAL201 can be achieved, with respect to concentration and timing and regarding increased flexibility in the administration of the drug.  The trial is providing practical information back to the trialling of VAL201, so that the next stage of clinical development, in which ValiRx will endeavour to show how effective the compound actually is, can be entered into with confidence and support from all those involved.

 

Building on this progress, ValiRx was able to announce in September 2019, that in addition to pharmacokinetic and toxicology data, clinical trial results to date show that VAL201 behaves as predicted in reducing prostate cancer progression - evidence that is supported from tumour imaging (MRI and CT) in subjects.  The full data set is currently being reviewed and collated and additional data surrounding the possibility of an effect on metastatic tumour lesions is being collated in the few subjects exhibiting such tumours.  This phase I/II trial will be finalised from a regulatory viewpoint with the trial focused on confirming and validating the optimum treatment regime and its particular use in clinical practice. Data relating to the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics will be published as it is collated, verified and submitted.

 

VAL301

In July 2019 and just after the period end, VAL301's clinical team signed an agreement with Aptus Clinical Ltd ("Aptus"), the UK based, clinical Contract Research Organisation ("CRO"), to effectuate a clinical development plan for VAL301 incorporating a Phase I/II study design concept in endometriosis.  With VAL301 being derived from the same active pharmaceutical ingredient as VAL201, the positive results from the VAL201 trial will be used to strengthen the clinical application of the VAL301 development programme and this agreement with Aptus represents an important stage in the preparation of the VAL301 compound for a clinical study

 

Pre-clinical studies of the compound indicated that treatment with VAL301 should not affect bone density or fertility, two of the major problems associated with current medical treatments for endometriosis and ValiRx intends to develop VAL301 as a non-invasive, effective and better tolerated treatment for this debilitating condition.

 

Acquisition of IP & Joint Venture Discussions

In May 2019, ValiRx acquired the IP assets of FIT Biotech OY ("FIT Bio").  FIT Bio had been publicly listed on the First North Finland marketplace and had been developing gene delivery technologies for a number of indications and was positioning its technology as an alternative to biologics, such as vaccines, antibodies and protein-based drugs.  Indeed, FIT Bio's principle technology - its Gene Transport Unit platform - had seen an initial product enter into clinical trials.  

 

In addition to the IP assets of FIT Bio, ValiRx currently owns a potentially complementary portfolio of other genetic-based diagnostic assets.   The Company is currently in discussions with a potential joint venture partner over the profitable collaboration, development and exploitation of these assets.

 

Financial review

At period end, ValiRx had net assets of £4,378,572 (2018: £4,647,127) of which £171,443 (2018: £590,615) comprised cash and equivalents.  The Company was also pleased to announce (on 24 September 2019) its post period receipt of proceeds from a R&D Tax Credit of £0.423m.

 

The operating loss for the period narrowed substantially by 49% to £1,071,334 (2018: £2,104,689) reflecting stringent budgeting, while conducting the necessary discussions with the MHRA on VAL201 and with Aptus on VAL301 to advance both assets in clinical trials. The Company's loss before income tax similarly was substantially reduced to £927,342 (H1 2018: £2,151,788) largely as a result of a profit on the sale of fixed asset investments and no requirement to manufacture additional VAL201 drug as sufficient quantities were produced in H2 2018.

The Company continues to carefully monitor its working capital position.

 

Outlook

The Board is pleased with the progress of the Company in the first half of the year. We have made important strides forward across both our therapeutic and technology portfolios, with the expectation that these will deliver added value in the near term for our shareholders.
