ROCKVILLE, Md., Aug. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- REGENXBIO Inc. (Nasdaq: RGNX) today reported financial results and operational highlights for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
"Our second quarter was defined by strong clinical execution across our pipeline: the Phase III AFFINITY DUCHENNE ® trial met its primary endpoint, we dosed the first participant in the NAAVIGATE study in diabetic retinopathy, and the FDA reaffirmed the path forward for RGX-121," said Curran Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer of REGENXBIO. "With this progress and our strong cash runway, we are well positioned to deliver against multiple near-term, high-value catalysts, including the initiation of the RGX-202 BLA this quarter and wet AMD pivotal data in the coming months, as we advance potentially transformative gene therapies to patients."

Corporate Updates

• REGENXBIO received over $200 million in July 2026, including a $100 million milestone payment from AbbVie for the dosing of the first patient in the Phase IIb/III NAAVIGATE study for diabetic retinopathy and approximately $108 million in net proceeds from an underwritten public offering.
• In addition to extending the company's expected cash runway into Q4 2027, proceeds will support the initiation of the planned AFFINITY ® RISE ex-U.S. randomized-controlled trial in 1H 2027 to support global regulatory submissions for RGX-202.

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS AND MILESTONES

Neuromuscular Disease: RGX-202 is a potential best-in-class gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Duchenne). RGX-202 is designed to address the underlying cause of Duchenne by enabling targeted expression of a novel microdystrophin that is closest to naturally occurring dystrophin. The differentiated therapeutic approach behind RGX-202 includes a novel construct, with the C-Terminal domain, a proactive immune suppression regimen, and a suspension-based manufacturing process that delivers industry-leading product purity levels. RGX-202 is designed for improved muscle function, durability and positive safety outcomes and is being evaluated in the Phase I/II/III AFFINITY DUCHENNE ® trial and confirmatory trial in ambulatory patients aged 1+.
• The confirmatory study of RGX-202 completed enrollment in June 2026 ahead of schedule due to strong patient demand and robust investigator interest.
• In topline pivotal data, the Phase III AFFINITY DUCHENNE ® trial met its primary endpoint with high statistical significance (p<0.0001). RGX-202 was well-tolerated and continued to demonstrate a favorable interim safety profile and demonstrated statistically significant correlation between RGX-202 microdystrophin expression level and functional improvement at one year (NSAA, n=9).
• REGENXBIO continues to manufacture intended commercial supply of RGX-202 at its in-house Manufacturing Innovation Center.
• REGENXBIO expects to initiate AFFINITY ® RISE, a new, ex-U.S. randomized, placebo-controlled study to support RGX-202 global regulatory submissions, in 1H 2027.
• The Company is on track to initiate a BLA submission in Q3 2026 under the accelerated approval pathway, supporting potential approval in 2H 2027.
• RGX-202 was well-tolerated and continued to demonstrate a favorable interim safety profile and demonstrated statistically significant correlation between RGX-202 microdystrophin expression level and functional improvement at one year (NSAA, n=9).
Retinal Disease: Surabgene lomparvovec (sura-vec, ABBV-RGX-314), developed in collaboration with AbbVie, is potentially the first-in-class gene therapy treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR).
Sura-vec for the Treatment of Wet AMD (Subretinal Delivery)
• REGENXBIO expects to announce topline data with AbbVie from the ATMOSPHERE ® and ASCENT ® pivotal trials of sura-vec using subretinal delivery in Q4 2026.
• Global regulatory submissions are expected in 2027.
• Long-term follow-up data from the Phase I/IIa trial of sura-vec, presented at the ASRS 44th Annual Meeting in July 2026, showed stable to improved visual acuity and meaningful reductions in anti-VEGF treatment burden through five years at doses similar to those used in the pivotal trials, with the exception of one participant in Cohort 4 with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy refractory to anti-VEGF therapy.
Sura-vec for the Treatment of DR (Suprachoroidal Delivery)
• In June 2026, REGENXBIO announced the first patient had been dosed in the Phase IIb/III NAAVIGATE study. The associated $100 million milestone payment from AbbVie was received in July 2026.
• NAAVIGATE is a Phase IIb/III multicenter, randomized, masked, sham-controlled study enrolling subjects with non-proliferative DR (NPDR) without center-involved diabetic macular edema (CI-DME) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a one-time, in-office administration of sura-vec.
• Long-term follow-up data from the ALTITUDE ® trial, also presented at ASRS in July 2026, showed a durable safety and efficacy profile through 2.5 years at the dose being evaluated in NAAVIGATE with short-course prophylactic topical steroids.
Neurodegenerative Disease: NAVSUNLI™ (clemidsogene lanparvovec, RGX-121) is a potential first-in-class treatment for MPS II, also known as Hunter syndrome, being developed and potentially commercialized in partnership with Nippon Shinyaku.
• REGENXBIO and the FDA held a positive Type A meeting in July 2026. In the meeting, the FDA reaffirmed that no additional studies of RGX-121 are required for the BLA resubmission.
• REGENXBIO plans to resubmit the BLA in Q3 2026. The resubmission will include longer-term efficacy and safety data, including participant imaging that has been submitted to FDA and continues to be collected and analyzed as part of ongoing RGX-121 safety monitoring.
• A post-approval confirmatory study will be discussed as part of BLA review.
FINANCIAL RESULTS Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $105.5 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to $240.9 million as of December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by cash used to fund operating activities during the first half of 2026. In July 2026, REGENXBIO received a $100 million milestone payment from AbbVie for the dosing of the first patient in the Phase IIb/III NAAVIGATE study and approximately $108 million estimated net proceeds from an underwritten public offering of common stock and pre-funded warrants. Pro forma cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of June 30, 2026 was approximately $313 million, including the impact of the milestone payment and offering proceeds received in July 2026.
Revenues: Revenues were $108.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $21.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to the $100.0 million development milestone achieved in the second quarter of 2026 upon dosing the first patient in the NAAVIGATE study. The increase was partially offset by a $16.7 million decrease in ZOLGENSMA ® royalty revenues due to the expiration of licensed patents in the U.S. in January 2026. Novartis launched U.S. sales of ITVISMA ® in the first quarter of 2026. ITVISMA is now also approved in the UAE, Japan, Qatar and the EU. REGENXBIO is entitled to royalties on certain net sales of ITVISMA in the U.S. and other jurisdictions with patents extending until 2037.
Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $56.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $59.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to manufacturing-related expenses and clinical trial expenses for sura-vec and NAVSUNLI pivotal trials.
General and Administrative Expenses: General and administrative expenses were $21.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $19.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was largely driven by personnel-related costs, commercialization expenses, consulting and other corporate advisory services.
Net Income: Net income was $22.7 million, or $0.43 basic and diluted net income per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net loss of $70.9 million, or $1.38 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
FINANCIAL GUIDANCE REGENXBIO expects its balance in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $105.5 million as of June 30, 2026, along with the $100.0 million milestone payment and $107.8 million estimated net offering proceeds received in July 2026, are sufficient to fund operations into Q4 2027. This cash runway guidance is based on the Company's current operational plans and excludes the impact of any material payments that may potentially be received from partners or licensees upon the achievement of development or regulatory milestones, or upon the approval or commercialization of product candidates, and excludes any additional potential dilutive or non-dilutive funding opportunities.
