Dianthus Therapeutics Highlights Recent Business Achievements and Reports Q3 Financial Results

Claseprubart achieved statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL), Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG), and other efficacy measures at Week 13 in Phase 2 MaGic trial in gMG

New claseprubart data from the MaGic open-label extension supporting potential for 300mg/2mL Q4W dosing and new in vitro data highlighting potential efficacy benefits of upstream (aC1s, claseprubart) vs. downstream (C5, ravulizumab) complement inhibition were presented during the AANEM Annual Meeting in October 2025

Phase 3 gMG trial including two claseprubart treatment arms, 300mg/2mL Q2W and 300mg/2mL Q4W, vs. placebo anticipated to initiate in 2026

Accelerated timing for interim responder analysis for Phase 3 CAPTIVATE trial of claseprubart in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP); now anticipated in Q2’26 (formerly 2H’26) due to faster than expected enrollment

Phase 2 MoMeNtum trial of claseprubart in Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN) ongoing;top-line results anticipated in 2H’26

Announced exclusive license agreement for DNTH212, a bifunctional BDCA2 and BAFF/APRIL inhibitor; Phase 1 healthy volunteer data anticipated in 2H’26

Estimated ~$525 million of cash after DNTH212 upfront and near-term milestone payments provides runway into 2028

NEW YORK and WALTHAM, Mass., Nov. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dianthus Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: DNTH), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to developing next-generation therapies to transform the treatment of severe autoimmune diseases, today reported financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2025, and provided an update on recent business achievements.

“I’m extremely proud of our team’s outstanding track record of execution against our vision to become a leading biotech company in the I&I field. Just in the past 2 months, we delivered impressive results from the gMG MaGic trial, accelerated the timing of the interim responder analysis from our CIDP CAPTIVATE trial from 2H’26 to Q2'26, and in-licensed DNTH212, a new and exciting clinical-stage bifunctional fusion protein. Both claseprubart and DNTH212 have validated mechanisms of action with pipeline-in-a-product potential, and aim to deliver best-in-class efficacy, safety, and convenience with infrequent, subcutaneous self-administration,” said Marino Garcia, Chief Executive Officer of Dianthus Therapeutics. “The claseprubart efficacy and safety data from the MaGic trial, including the recently presented data for placebo patients transitioning to claseprubart in the OLE and the post-hoc analyses highlighting the impact of QMG screening criteria on MG-ADL results, strongly support our Phase 3 plans to advance both 300mg/2mL Q2W and 300mg/2mL Q4W as a potential best-in-class treatment option in gMG. We remain focused on execution as we aim to deliver first-line biologic therapies that can meaningfully improve the lives of patients with severe autoimmune diseases.”

Claseprubart is an investigational, clinical-stage, potent monoclonal antibody engineered to selectively target the classical pathway by inhibiting only the active form of the C1s protein, a clinically validated complement target. Claseprubart is designed to enable a more convenient, subcutaneous, self-administered injection dosed as infrequently as once every two or four weeks. Claseprubart has the potential to be a best-in-class pipeline-in-a-product across a range of autoimmune disorders with high unmet need.

DNTH212 is an investigational, extended half-life bifunctional fusion protein targeting plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) BDCA2 to reduce Type 1 interferon production, while simultaneously inhibiting BAFF/APRIL to suppress B cell function. By targeting both the innate and adaptive immune systems via two clinically validated pathways that are known drivers of autoimmune disease pathogenesis, this complementary and differentiated approach has the potential to address multiple autoimmune indications with improved outcomes.

About Claseprubart (DNTH103)Claseprubart is an investigational, clinical-stage, potent monoclonal antibody engineered to selectively target the classical pathway by inhibiting only the active form of the C1s protein, a clinically validated complement target. Claseprubart is enhanced with YTE half-life extension technology designed to enable a more convenient subcutaneous, infrequently dosed, self-administered injection. Additionally, selective inhibition of the classical complement pathway may lower patient risk of infection from encapsulated bacteria by preserving immune activity of the lectin and alternative pathways. As the classical pathway plays a significant role in disease pathology, claseprubart has the potential to be a best-in-class pipeline-in-a-product across a range of autoimmune disorders with high unmet need. Dianthus is building a neuromuscular franchise with claseprubart and expects to initiate a Phase 3 trial in gMG in 2026, the interim responder analysis of the Phase 3 CAPTIVATE trial in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy in Q2’26, and top-line data from the Phase 2 MoMeNtum trial in Multifocal Motor Neuropathy in 2H’26.

Claseprubart is an investigational agent that is not approved as a therapy in any indication in any jurisdiction worldwide.

About DNTH212DNTH212 is an investigational, extended half-life bifunctional fusion protein targeting plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) BDCA2 to reduce Type 1 interferon production, while simultaneously inhibiting BAFF/APRIL to suppress B cell function. By targeting both the innate and adaptive immune systems via two clinically validated pathways that are known drivers of autoimmune disease pathogenesis, this complementary and differentiated approach has the potential to address multiple autoimmune indications with improved outcomes. A two-part Phase 1 study in China in healthy volunteers (Part A) and patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (Part B) is expected to initiate by year-end 2025, with top-line results in healthy volunteers expected in the second half of 2026.

DNTH212 is an investigational agent that is not approved as a therapy in any indication in any jurisdiction worldwide.
