Briefing

Denali Therapeutics reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and provided business highlights.

Denali Therapeutics reported a net loss of $99.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to a net income of $183.4 million for the same period in 2023. The company had no collaboration revenue for the quarter, a decrease from $294.1 million in the previous year, primarily due to Biogen exercising their option to license the ATV:Abeta program in 2023. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were approximately $1.35 billion as of June 30, 2024.

  • Enzyme Transport Vehicle franchise gained momentum with continued engagement with the FDA on an accelerated approval pathway for tividenofusp alfa (DNL310, ETV:IDS) in MPS II.
  • FDA selected DNL126 (ETV:SGSH) in MPS IIIA for the START program.
  • Regained the rights to TfR-based ATV:Abeta program from Biogen, expanding opportunities for addressing Alzheimer's disease.
  • COMPASS, the global Phase 2/3 study, is expected to complete enrollment in 2024.
