- Analysis of secondary endpoint of symptomatic COVID-19 events in CANOPY is unrelated to regulatory filing or review, but may be hypothesis generating for future
Invivyd discovery and development work - Today’s update on Day 67 and Day 90 event rates is the first of two planned public updates on symptomatic COVID-19 events in CANOPY;
Invivyd plans to analyze all future events at Day 180 - Further defining the relationship between serum virus neutralizing antibody titers and clinical protection that prospectively builds on published data is an anticipated goal of future clinical trials
“While these interim clinical efficacy data are exploratory and not part of the primary immunobridging endpoint of the CANOPY clinical trial, we believe they further our efforts to understand the relationship between sVNA titers and clinical efficacy in individuals who have some level of vaccine- or infection-induced immunity,” said
The ongoing CANOPY Phase 3 clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VYD222 and to assess immunobridging from VYD222 to certain historical data from the company’s previous Phase 2/3 clinical trial of adintrevimab (ADG20) for the prevention of symptomatic COVID-19 (EVADE). Symptomatic COVID-19 event collection in the CANOPY clinical trial is a secondary exploratory endpoint designed to allow
Updated Findings
As previously disclosed by the company in
Cohort B (Randomized, placebo-controlled cohort without moderate-to-severe immune compromise at risk of acquiring SARS-CoV-2 due to regular unmasked face-to-face interactions) — Proportion of participants with RT-PCR-confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 (exploratory data):
As of (median 67 days follow-up) | Through Day 90 | |
VYD222 | 0% (0/322) | 0.3% (1/314) |
Placebo | 3% (5/162) | 5% (8/159) |
Cohort A (Open-label cohort with moderate-to-severe immune compromise) — Proportion of participants with RT-PCR-confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 (exploratory data):
As of (median 35 days follow-up) | Through Day 90 | |
VYD222 | 0% (0/306) | 1% (3/298) |
Additional COVID-19 events have occurred in Cohort A (unblinded) and Cohort B (randomized, not yet analyzed) post Day 90, but the company has not yet analyzed the data.
About VYD222
VYD222 is a neutralizing, half-life extended monoclonal antibody (mAb) candidate being investigated for the pre-exposure prophylaxis (prevention) of COVID-19 in immunocompromised adults and adolescents. VYD222 was designed for broad activity and has demonstrated in vitro neutralizing activity in pseudotyped virus-like particle and authentic virus neutralization assays against various pre-Omicron and Omicron variants, including JN.1. VYD222 was engineered from adintrevimab, Invivyd’s investigational mAb that has a robust safety data package and demonstrated clinically meaningful results in global Phase 2/3 clinical trials for both the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “expects,” “estimates,” “intends,” “potential,” “projects,” and “future” or similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning, among other things, the company’s ongoing research and clinical development activities, as well as future potential research and clinical development efforts; the potential of VYD222 for clinical protection from symptomatic COVID-19 based on early signals shown by interim data from the CANOPY clinical trial; the company’s plans to provide any future public updates on symptomatic COVID-19 events in the CANOPY clinical trial, including the timing thereof; the potential for exploratory clinical efficacy data from the CANOPY clinical trial to be hypothesis generating for future discovery and development work of the company, and the possibility of updating prior published work that analyzed the relationships between sVNA titers and protection; the in vitro neutralizing activity of VYD222 against major SARS-CoV-2 variants; the company’s mission to rapidly and perpetually deliver antibody-based therapies that protect vulnerable people from the devastating consequences of circulating viral threats, beginning with SARS-CoV-2; the ability of the company to leverage its INVYMAB platform approach to generate a robust pipeline of product candidates which, if authorized or approved, could be used in prevention or treatment of serious viral diseases, starting with COVID-19 and expanding into influenza and other high-need indications; the company’s business strategies and objectives; and other statements that are not historical fact. The company may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in the company’s forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on the company’s forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: the timing and progress of the company’s discovery, preclinical and clinical development activities; the risk that results of preclinical studies or clinical trials may not be predictive of future results, and interim data are subject to further analysis; unexpected safety or efficacy data observed during preclinical studies or clinical trials; the predictability of clinical success of the company’s product candidates based on neutralizing activity in preclinical studies; the company’s reliance on third parties with respect to virus assay creation and product candidate testing and with respect to its clinical trials; variability of results in models used to predict activity against SARS-CoV-2 variants; whether VYD222 or any other product candidate is able to demonstrate and sustain neutralizing activity against major SARS-CoV-2 variants, particularly in the face of viral evolution; the company’s ability to leverage its INVYMAB platform approach to generate a robust pipeline of product candidates which, if authorized or approved, could be used in prevention or treatment of serious viral diseases; the uncertainties and timing of the regulatory authorization or approval process, and available development and regulatory pathways for authorization or approval of the company’s product candidates; changes in the regulatory environment; the company’s ability to continue as a going concern; and whether the company has adequate funding to meet future operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements.
