Appili Therapeutics Reports Financial and Operational Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2022

Appili Therapeutics Inc. (TSX: APLI; OTCQX: APLIF) (the “Company” or “Appili”), a biopharmaceutical company focused on drug development for infectious diseases, today announced its financial and operational results for the third quarter of its fiscal year 2022, which ended on December 31, 2021.

“Over the past few months, we made meaningful progress fortifying partnerships to accelerate and expand our diversified portfolio, including expanding the scope of our commercial partnership with Saptalis to bring our near-market antibiotic product to global markets, and kickstarting an exciting new chapter on our path to become a global biotechnology company and leader in the fight against infectious diseases,” said Armand Balboni, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Appili Therapeutics. “There is still a lot of work to be done to better protect society from emerging healthcare threats, and that’s why I’m incredibly proud of all that we have accomplished this quarter to enhance our portfolio of critical infectious disease treatments and address unmet needs in healthcare.”

Third quarter and recent operational highlights include:

  • Expansion of commercial agreement with Saptalis Pharmaceuticals to add European and Latin American markets and increase global access to ATI-1501, Appili’s proprietary taste-masked liquid suspension reformulation of metronidazole scheduled for submission to the US Food and Drug Administration later this year
  • Announced positive one year challenge results for biodefense vaccine candidate ATI-1701, a leading and potential first-in-class option to prevent infection by top priority biothreat Francisella tularensis
  • Updated Appili’s funding agreement with The Lind Partners with a voluntary prepayment of $1 million
  • Discontinued further investment in development activities related to COVID-19 antiviral candidate Avigan®/Reeqonus™ (favipiravir) and issued notice of termination of strategic alliance and equity transaction to AiPharma following announcement of top-line results for Phase 3 PRESECO trial
