NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 13, 2025 -- Rallybio Corporation (Nasdaq RLYB), a clinical-stage biotechnology company translating scientific advances into transformative therapies for patients with devastating rare diseases, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, and provided an update on recent company developments.

"We are pleased with our strong execution in 2024, and look forward to reporting on our planned milestones in 2025, said Stephen Uden, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Rallybio. Dosing in our RLYB212 Phase 2 trial is underway, our differentiated C5 inhibitor, RLYB116, is on track to enter a confirmatory pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic study in the second quarter, and our potentially best-in-class ENPP1 inhibitor for patients with hypophosphatasia, REV102, is advancing toward Phase 1 in 2026. Through exceptional execution of these programs and continued financial discipline, we are laser focused on driving value for Rallybio in 2025 and positioning the Company for sustained growth and success in the future.

Recent Business Highlights and Upcoming Milestones

In February 2025, Rallybio announced that the sentinel participant was dosed in the Phase 2 trial investigating RLYB212 in pregnant women at higher risk for HPA-1a alloimmunization and fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT). Pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety data from the second trimester are expected in the second quarter of 2025, with PK and safety data at the time of delivery expected in the third quarter of 2025. The Company received regulatory approval to begin the Phase 2 trial in October 2024 and initiated screening in November 2024.

More than 14,300 pregnant women were screened in Rallybio's FNAIT natural history study as of January 31, 2025, at which time screening was concluded at sites in the United States and Canada. Natural history data will continue to be collected in a sub-study of the Phase 2 trial, where participants at higher risk for HPA-1a alloimmunization and FNAIT who do not receive RLYB212 are eligible to enroll.

Rallybio expects to present interim data from the FNAIT natural history study in mid-2025, including data evaluating the frequency of FNAIT risk across racial and ethnic populations.

In December 2024, Rallybio presented biomarker characterization analyses indicating that RLYB116 led to a meaningfully greater degree of complement inhibition in the Phase 1 multiple ascending dose (MAD) study than initially reported and as a result, may be effective in treating a broad range of complement-mediated diseases, including paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG), and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).

Rallybio plans to initiate a confirmatory clinical pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic (PK PD) study in the second quarter of 2025, with data readouts from Cohorts 1 and 2 expected in the third and fourth quarter of 2025, respectively.

Rallybio advanced REV102, an ENPP1 inhibitor for the treatment of patients with hypophosphatasia (HPP), which is being developed through a joint venture with Recursion Pharmaceuticals.

Investigational new drug application (IND)-enabling studies are underway to support the initiation of a Phase 1 study in 2026.

Presentation of data evaluating REV102 in a preclinical model of later-onset HPP is expected in the second half of 2025.

In December 2024, Rallybio presented preclinical data for RLYB332 at the American Society for Hematology (ASH) annual meeting, which demonstrated that single intravenous injections of RLYB332 to humanized FcRn mice had rapid and sustained effects on PD parameters, including serum iron, unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC), and transferrin saturation (TSAT), with greater impact than those produced by comparator molecules.

The favorable PD data relative to comparator molecules support RLYB332 as a long-acting, potentially best-in-class therapy for the treatment of diseases of iron overload.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results

Revenue Revenue was $38 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to no revenue in the same periods in 2023. The increase in revenue for both the fourth quarter of 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2024 was related to Rallybio's entrance into the collaboration agreement with Johnson Johnson in the second quarter of 2024 and the recognition of revenue related to the collaboration's performance obligations.

Research Development (R D) Expenses R D expenses were $7.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $15.9 million for the same period in 2023. R D expenses were $41.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $53.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in R D expenses for both the fourth quarter of 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in development costs related to RLYB212, RLYB116 and other program candidates, in addition to a decrease in payroll and personnel-related costs, largely related to the workforce reduction.

General Administrative (G A) Expenses G A expenses were $4.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2023. G A expenses were $19.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $25.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in G A expenses for both the fourth quarter of 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in other general and administrative expenses including consulting fees, director and officer insurance premiums and professional fees, in addition to lower payroll and personnel-related costs, largely related to the workforce reduction and lower ongoing headcount in 2024 as compared to 2023.

Net Loss and Net Loss Per Common Share Rallybio reported a net loss of $11.0 million, or $0.25 per common share, for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to a net loss of $20.2 million, or

$0.50 per common share, for the same period in 2023. A net loss of $57.8 million, or $1.33 per common share, was reported for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to a net loss of $74.6 million, or $1.84 per common share, for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Cash Position As of December 31, 2024, cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities were $65.5 million. Rallybio expects these funds will be sufficient to support operations into the second half of 2026.
