About PureTech’s Wholly Owned Pipeline
In addition to the excellent progress across its Founded Entities, PureTech’s Wholly Owned Pipeline is rapidly advancing, and the Company’s operational runway, including its $341.4 million Cash and Cash Equivalents as of June 30, 2022, not including this transaction, is expected to support this growth into the first quarter of 2026. PureTech’s pipeline is comprised of six therapeutic candidates, four of which are currently clinical stage, including one partnered program. These candidates are centered on a strategy of leveraging validated biology to rapidly advance therapeutics with proven efficacy. Several upcoming milestones are anticipated for these candidates, including the following:
LYT-100 (deupirfenidone) is in development for the potential treatment of conditions involving inflammation and fibrosis, including idiopathic fibrosis (IPF), for which current standards of care are associated with significant tolerability issues, resulting in approximately three out of four patients in the U.S. foregoing treatment with these otherwise efficacious medicines.2 LYT-100 is a deuterated form of one of the two standard of care treatments, pirfenidone, which has proven efficacy and has been shown to improve survival in these patients by approximately three years, but its side effects cause patients to discontinue or dose reduce, thereby limiting its effectiveness.3 LYT-100 has shown a 50% reduction in gastrointestinal tolerability issues in a head-to-head study versus pirfenidone, and it can be dosed at a higher exposure level, but with a lower Cmax, than the FDA-approved dosage of pirfenidone, potentially enabling improved efficacy. PureTech is currently evaluating two doses of LYT-100, one with comparable exposure to the approved dose o
