iStock, JHVEPhoto With an upfront payment of $50 million from Roche, the partnership will leverage Dyno Therapeutics’ in vivo gene therapy delivery technology, which synthesizes virus capsids with better functionality and manufacturability. Roche on Thursday inked its second research collaboration deal with Dyno Therapeutics to advance next-generation gene therapies for neurological diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, Roche will make an upfront payment of $50 million and pledge more than $1 billion in preclinical, clinical and commercial milestones, plus royalties on net sales of any product that arises from the partnership. Roche will gain even greater access to Dyno’s in vivo gene therapy delivery platform, which uses AI to optimally and rapidly synthesize adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsids. According to the biotech’s website , this approach can sidestep the common limitations of naturally occurring capsids—which existing gene therapies use—such as problems with existing immunity, payload size and manufacturability. Under the new agreement, Dyno will leverage its delivery technology and take charge of discovering novel AAV capsids with better functionality. Roche will be responsible for capsid validation studies and lead preclinical and clinical development, as well as commercialization activities. The partners have yet to specify what diseases they will prioritize, only revealing that they will go after neurological targets. Boris Zaïtra, Roche’s head of corporate business development, in a statement said that the company is “very pleased to take our partnership with Dyno Therapeutics to the next level.” Roche and Dyno first teamed in October 2020, when the biopharma put $1.8 billion on the line to use Dyno’s platform to develop AAV vectors for gene therapies targeting the liver or the central nervous system. “Our previous collaboration with Dyno Therapeutics gives us great confidence to increase our investment in therapeutic gene delivery, to support our neurological disease portfolio,” Zaïtra said, noting that the new agreement on Thursday will allow Roche to develop novel therapies for “historically difficult-to-treat neurological diseases.” With the new Dyno deal, Roche looks to beef up its neuro pipeline just days after it backed out of an Alzheimer’s disease partnership with UCB, returning rights to the Phase IIa candidate bepranemab. Roche and UCB in July 2020 agreed to work on bepranemab together, with the biopharma paying $120 million upfront and pledging up to $2 billion in milestones. In January 2024, Roche also dumped two Alzheimer’s disease assets , handing them back to Swiss biotech AC Immune. The candidates were the anti-amyloid beta antibody crenezumab and the anti-tau antibody semorinemab. However, Roche’s neuro business has also made forward strides. In March 2024, the company unveiled promising Phase Ib/IIa data for the investigational antibody trontinemab, which it is developing for Alzheimer’s disease. Early data showed that trontinemab could substantially reduce mean amyloid levels in the brain. Last month, Roche also touted strong mid-stage data for its BTK inhibitor fenebrutinib, which the company at the time said resulted in a “near-complete suppression of disease activity” in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis.

Group sales grew by 6%1 at constant exchange rates (CER) (2% in CHF) in the first nine months, driven by the high demand for both our medicines and diagnostics; excluding COVID-19-related products, sales increased by 8%In the third quarter, Group sales rose by 9% (6% in CHF), as they did in the second quarter Pharmaceuticals Division sales rose by 7% in the first nine months; the strong growth of 9% in the base business2 was driven by continued high demand for our newer medicines to treat severe diseases; Vabysmo (serious eye diseases), Phesgo (breast cancer) and Ocrevus (multiple sclerosis) were major growth driversDiagnostics Division sales increased by 5% in the first nine months, while the base business2 grew by 8% due to higher demand for immunodiagnostic, pathology and molecular solutionsHighlights: US approval for Itovebi (inavolisib) for breast cancer, Ocrevus Zunovo subcutaneous injection for multiple sclerosis and Tecentriq Hybreza subcutaneous formulation for various types of cancerEU approval for Vabysmo for retinal vein occlusion (RVO), a serious eye disease, and PiaSky for paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare life-threatening blood conditionPositive phase III data for Gazyva/Gazyvaro (lupus nephritis, a kidney disease), Xofluza (influenza) and Tecentriq (lung cancer).

We made significant progress in our pharmaceuticals portfolio in the last quarter with five important regulatory approvals for our medicines, three positive phase III read-outs, and two acquisitions to strengthen our oncology and ophthalmology pipelines. Itovebi (inavolisib) recently received US approval based on clinical data demonstrating a reduction of more than 50% in the risk of death or worsening disease for people suffering from a form of advanced, hard-to-treat breast cancer. In addition, we had positive phase III results for Gazyva/Gazyvaro in lupus nephritis, a potentially life-threatening kidney disease for which limited treatment options are available today. We confirm our outlook for 2024.” Sales CHF millions As % of sales % change January‒September 2024 2023 2024 2023 At CER In CHF Group 44,984 44,053 100.0 100.0 6 2 Pharmaceuticals Division 34,257 33,372 76.2 75.8 7 3 United States 18,166 17,430 40.4 39.6 7 4 Europe 6,613 6,259 14.7 14.2 7 6 Japan 2,083 2,937 4.6 6.7 -21 -29 International* 7,395 6,746 16.5 15.3 19 10 Diagnostics Division 10,727 10,681 23.8 24.2 5 0 All figures shown in the table were restated to reflect the shift of the Foundation Medicine (FMI) business from the Pharmaceuticals Division to the Diagnostics Division. *Asia-Pacific, CEETRIS (Central Eastern Europe, Türkiye, Russia and Indian subcontinent), Latin America, Middle East, Africa, Canada, others Outlook for 2024 confirmed Roche expects an increase in Group sales in the mid single digit range (CER). Core earnings per share are targeted to grow in the high single digit range (CER), excluding the impact from the resolution of tax disputes in 2023. Roche expects to further increase its dividend in Swiss francs. Group salesIn the first nine months of 2024, Group sales increased by 6% at CER (2% in CHF) to CHF 45.0 billion as strong demand for our novel medicines as well as diagnostic products including immunodiagnostic, pathology and molecular solutions more than offset the anticipated decline in COVID-19-related sales and the impact of biosimilar/generic erosion. The appreciation of the Swiss franc against most currencies had an adverse impact on the sales reported in Swiss francs compared to constant exchange rates. The Pharmaceuticals Division sales increased by 7% to CHF 34.3 billion, while the base business (excluding COVID-19) grew by 9%, driven primarily by higher sales of Vabysmo (severe eye diseases), Phesgo (breast cancer), Ocrevus (multiple sclerosis), Hemlibra (haemophilia) and Polivy (blood cancer). These five medicines together generated total sales of CHF 13.2 billion, an increase of CHF 2.7 billion (CER) from the first nine months of 2023. The eye medicine Vabysmo, launched in early 2022, continues to be a major growth driver, generating sales of CHF 2.8 billion on growing demand in all regions. Sales of Avastin (various types of cancer), Herceptin (breast and gastric cancer) and MabThera/Rituxan (blood cancer, rheumatoid arthritis) decreased by a combined CHF 0.5 billion as the impact of biosimilar competition slowed further. Sales of the COVID-19 medicine Ronapreve were negligible compared with CHF 0.5 billion in the first nine months of 2023. In the United States, sales grew by 7% as strong sales of Vabysmo, Ocrevus, Polivy and Xolair (food allergies) were partially offset by the continued decline in sales of medicines for which patent protection has expired. Vabysmo achieved CHF 2.1 billion in sales, showing a high uptake in both new patients and patients switching from other medications. In Europe, sales rose by 7%, driven by demand for Vabysmo as well as by the continued uptake of Phesgo, Ocrevus, Evrysdi (spinal muscular atrophy) and Hemlibra. This was partially offset by lower sales of medicines for which patent protection has expired and of Perjeta (breast cancer) due to the ongoing conversion of patients to Phesgo. Sales in Japan were down 21%, mainly due to the base effect of the supply of Ronapreve (COVID-19) to the government in the first quarter of 2023. Excluding this effect, sales in Japan were 3% lower as strong demand for Phesgo and Vabysmo was more than offset by the impact of government price cuts and lower sales of medicines for which patent protection has expired. Sales in the International region surged by 19%, led by demand for Perjeta, Hemlibra, Tecentriq (cancer immunotherapy), Phesgo and Ocrevus as well as the launch of Elevydis (gene therapy, Duchenne muscular dystrophy). Sales in China increased by 8%, driven by Xofluza, Perjeta, Polivy and Avastin. The Diagnostics Division sales increased by 5% to CHF 10.7 billion, while the base business (excluding COVID-19) grew by 8%. Immunodiagnostic products, which include cardiac, oncology and thyroid tests, were the main growth drivers (10%). Additional growth came from pathology and molecular solutions. Sales of COVID-19 tests were CHF 0.1 billion in the first nine months of 2024 compared with CHF 0.4 billion in the corresponding period last year. Sales growth was reported across regions, with the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region growing by 5%, North America by 6%, Asia-Pacific by 2% and Latin America by 18%.
