-CTA successfully submitted in Europe for Phase 1b clinical trial in female OTC heterozygotes
-Nominated development candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, to address SYNGAP1-related disorders GLP toxicology studies expected to be initiated in 2025
-American Society of Cell and Gene Therapy (ASGCT) oral presentations to highlight meaningful increase in SYNGAP1 protein, driven by lead ASO candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, in non-human primates (NHP) and review interim SAD data from the Phase 1 trial of CMP-CPS-001 in healthy volunteers
-Expect to receive milestone payment from Fulcrum Therapeutics under the license agreement signed July 2023 for our Diamond-Blackfan Anemia (DBA) program
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 13, 2025 - CAMP4 Therapeutics Corporation ("CAMP4") (Nasdaq CAMP), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a pipeline of regulatory RNA-targeting therapeutics designed to upregulate gene expression with the goal of restoring healthy protein levels to treat a broad range of genetic diseases, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update.
"We are very pleased with the strong execution during the first quarter of 2025," said Josh Mandel-Brehm, President and Chief Executive Officer of CAMP4. "We made important advances in our clinical study of CMP-CPS-001 for the treatment of UCDs, submitting a CTA in Europe for a Phase 1b expansion to enroll female participants who are heterozygous for a mutation of the OTC gene, pending regulatory clearance. We remain on track to release safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic data from the MAD portion of this Phase 1 study in Q4 2025. In addition, we learned that we are eligible to receive a milestone payment from Fulcrum Therapeutics under the license agreement signed in July 2023, under which Fulcrum was granted a worldwide exclusive license to rights under our DBA program. This achievement further validates our ability to create meaningful value."
Mr. Mandel-Brehm continued, "We look forward to presenting at ASGCT, showing that our lead SYNGAP1-related disorders program ASO candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, identified through our proprietary RAP Platform, drove a meaningful increase in SYNGAP1 protein levels following intrathecal administration in non-human primates, demonstrating strong translational potential. We will also share evidence of increased SYNGAP1 transcription and protein levels across multiple cell types, including patient-derived neurons, as well as review safety and pharmacokinetic data from the SAD portion of our ongoing Phase 1 study of CMP-CPS-001. We believe these milestones further validate the breadth of our RAP Platform and position CAMP4 for continued momentum throughout 2025."
Corporate Highlights
Completed dosing in the first three multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts in our ongoing clinical trial of CMP-CPS-001. Submitted CTA in Europe for Phase 1b clinical trial in female OTC heterozygotes.
Oral presentations of new preclinical data from the SYNGAP1-related disorders program and review of interim safety results from the SAD portion of the ongoing Phase 1 study of CMP-CPS-001 in 48 healthy volunteers to be showcased at the 28th American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy Annual Meeting.
oNew preclinical data demonstrate a meaningful increase in SYNGAP1 protein levels following intrathecal administration of lead ASO candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, in NHPs and the potential of ASOs to target regulatory RNAs to address UCDs.
oReview of favorable safety and pharmacokinetics data from the ongoing Phase 1 trial of CMP-CPS-001 to provide insights into the safety profile and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the therapeutic candidate.
In April 2025, the first milestone event under our July 2023 agreement with Fulcrum Therapeutics was achieved, making us eligible to receive a $0.6 million payment from Fulcrum. Under the terms of this agreement, if Fulcrum successfully develops and commercializes a licensed product, CAMP4 will be eligible to receive (i) up to $35.0 million in development and regulatory milestone payments, and (ii) up to $35.0 million in sales milestone payments. CAMP4 is also eligible to receive royalties on worldwide net sales of licensed products ranging from mid-single digits to low-double digits.
Nominated a new development candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, for the treatment of SYNGAP-1 related disorders based on robust preclinical data, including recent results from NHP studies.
First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at March 31, 2025, were $49.3 million, compared to $64.0 million as of December 31, 2024.
R D Expenses Research and development expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, were $10.1 million, compared to $9.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in R D expenses was primarily driven by an increase in clinical and preclinical study costs.
G A Expenses General and administrative expenses were $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $3.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in G A expenses was primarily due to increases in personnel-related and overhead expenses.
Net Loss Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $ 12.4 million compared to $12.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
About CAMP4 Therapeutics
CAMP4 is developing disease-modifying treatments for a broad range of genetic diseases where amplifying healthy protein may offer therapeutic benefits. Our approach amplifies mRNA by harnessing a fundamental mechanism of how genes are controlled. To amplify mRNA, our therapeutic ASO drug candidates target regulatory RNAs (regRNAs), which act locally on transcription factors and are the master regulators of gene expression. CAMP4's proprietary RAP Platform enables the mapping of regRNAs and generation of therapeutic candidates designed to target the regRNAs associated with genes underlying haploinsufficient and recessive partial loss-of-function disorders, of which there are more than 1,200, in which a modest increase in protein expression may have the potential to be clinically meaningful.
