These results were presented across a late-breaking oral and poster presentation at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology ("EADV") Congress 2026.

"Patients and physicians currently lack a treatment option for this complex, immune driven disease that combines robust efficacy, a favorable safety profile that excludes black box warnings and other frequent monitoring requirements, and delivers durable control supporting less frequent, chronic maintenance dosing," said Arash Mostaghimi, M.D., M.P.A., M.P.H., Associate Professor of Dermatology and Vice Chair of Clinical Trials and Innovation, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School. "The SIGNAL-AA Part B results support the potential of bempikibart to address this unmet need and become a standard of care, first-line option for patients with alopecia areata, and I look forward to results from future clinical trials." Results from Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Program: The Part B portion of the SIGNAL-AA program is an open-label clinical trial building upon the previously completed Part A, which established proof-of-concept of bempikibart in AA. In Part B, bempikibart is being evaluated in 33 patients with severe or very severe AA (baseline Severity of Alopecia Tool ("SALT") scores of 50-100) with a maximum duration of current episode of four years. Enrollment amongst patients with prior exposure to JAK inhibitor ("JAKi") therapy was allowed; amongst the 33 enrolled patients, 36.4% had previously been treated with oral JAKis. Total enrollment exceeded the initial target due to patient demand. In Part B, patients are treated with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with 16-week off-drug follow-up through Week 52 before optional enrollment in the open-label extension ("OLE"). Dosing includes an initial loading regimen of 200mg of bempikibart dosed weekly for four doses, followed by continued dosing of 200mg every-other-week over a 32-week period, for a total dosing period of 36 weeks. Across both regimens, bempikibart was administered subcutaneously ("SC"). The prespecified primary efficacy analysis was evaluated on the basis of mean percentage change from baseline in SALT scores in the modified intent-to-treat ("mITT") population. Additional prespecified efficacy analyses included the proportion of patients achieving various relative and absolute SALT improvements including SALT-20 (80% of scalp hair coverage), SALT30 (30% improvement in SALT score from baseline), and SALT50 (50% improvement in SALT score from baseline) responses at Week 36. Patients were then followed through the off-drug period to Week 52. Highlights from the EADV Congress 2026 late-breaking and poster presentations include: Results from the 36-Week Treatment Period in Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Program: Bempikibart demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy data on primary and key secondary endpoints at Week 36 supporting its advancement into a registration-directed program. - Mean percent reduction in SALT score from baseline of 35.3% in the mITT analysis. - 40.0% (10/25) of patients in the mITT analysis and 30.3% (10/33) of patients in the intent-to-treat ("ITT") analysis achieved a SALT-20 response. - In addition to SALT-20 response being observed in patients with both severe and very severe disease, it was also observed in both IgE-high and IgE-low patients and in both patients with greater than and less than two-year duration of episode. - 44.0% (11/25) of patients in the mITT analysis and 33.3% (11/33) of patients in the ITT analysis achieved SALT30 response. - 44.0% (11/25) of patients in the mITT and 33.3% (11/33) of patients in the ITT analysis achieved SALT50 response. - In the mITT analysis, 10 patients had received an oral JAKi before enrolling. Of these, four had responded to their most recent JAKi (defined as at least 30% improvement in SALT score) and six had not. Mean percent reduction in SALT score from baseline was 48.3% in prior JAK responders, compared with 4.8% in prior JAK non-responders. Reduction in mean SALT score of JAK-naïve patients was 44.1%. Results from the 16-Week Off-Drug Follow-Up Period in Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Program: Bempikibart demonstrated robust durability, with maintenance and deepening of response observed, in the 16-week off-drug follow-up period. - In total, 18 patients entered the 16-week off-drug period. At the 16-week off-drug time point, 44% of patients achieved a SALT-20 response, 61% achieved SALT30 response, and 50% achieved SALT50 response. - Of the patients who entered the off-drug follow-up period, 12 patients had demonstrated hair growth by the end of the treatment period at Week 36. Maintenance of response (with maintenance defined as a less than 20-point SALT score worsening from the last on-treatment value) was observed in 100% of these patients and deepening of response was observed in 42% of these patients. Mean SALT score in these patients remained stable through 16-weeks off-drug. - In the 16-week off-drug follow-up period, one patient who achieved a SALT-10 at Week 36 achieved complete hair growth (SALT = 0) and two additional patients who achieved SALT-20 at Week 36 had a deepening of response and achieved a SALT-10. - One latent responder during the 36-week treatment period converted to a response, achieving a SALT-20, at the end of the 16-week off-drug period. "We are excited to show once again that bempikibart was able to induce deep, durable responses in severe and very severe alopecia areata. Responses were maintained and deepened through the 16-week off-drug period, and one latent responder converted to SALT-20 after stopping treatment, similar to what we saw in Part A, demonstrative of the potential for even greater clinical impact with continued dosing," said José Trevejo, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of Q32 Bio. "We believe these data support a less frequent, chronic maintenance dosing regimen once patients respond. We look forward to exploring a potential maintenance regimen in our open-label extensions as we move rapidly into registrational studies in the first half of 2027." Pharmacokinetic ("PK"), Pharmacodynamic ("PD"), and Anti-Drug Antibody ("ADA") Profile: Bempikibart demonstrated a favorable PK, PD and ADA profile in Part B. - PK data from Part B support the loading dose regimen had its intended effect, achieving steady state concentrations approximately 10 weeks earlier than in Part A. - Expected reductions in CD3+ T-cells were observed, with on-mechanism reductions in four T-effector cytokines assessed at baseline and Weeks 24 and 36. Patients in the upper-tier at baseline showed meaningful reductions in IFNγ, IL-17, and IL-6. CXCL10, a downstream marker of IFNγ activity, decreased meaningfully in responders versus non-responders. - Substantial reductions in biomarkers of Th2, including TARC, IgE and eosinophils. - Post-treatment biopsies showed reduced CD3+/CD8+ infiltrates around hair follicles and increased presence of anagen follicles supportive of active hair growth. - Negligible ADA was observed with no impact on PK. "Reductions in Th1 and Th2 biomarkers observed across Part B further demonstrate the potential of bempikibart's unique IL-7 and TSLP inhibitory mechanism to translate into clinical benefit for patients, while biopsy results provide strong evidence of bempikibart's potential to inhibit local inflammation and restore immune homeostasis in the hair follicle," said Shelia Violette, Ph.D., Co-Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Q32 Bio. "These results strengthen our conviction in the potential to deliver a meaningful treatment option to patients with alopecia areata and provide strong rationale for advancing bempikibart development in other autoimmune and inflammatory conditions where IL-7 and TSLP play a role." Safety and Tolerability Results: Bempikibart was observed to have a generally well-tolerated safety profile in SIGNAL-AA Part B, consistent with prior studies. No new safety signals were observed. There were no serious adverse events or Grade 3 or higher adverse events related to treatment. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was injection site reaction ("ISR") (36.3%) which were primarily singular events, with ISR incidence of 4% across all Part B dose administrations. All ISRs reported were mild and resolved with no intervention, with the majority resolving within a day. On-target reduction in absolute lymphocyte count flattened at Weeks 24 to 28 with no correlation to infection events. The presentations will be available in the "Presentations and Publications" section of the Q32 Bio website following the formal EADV presentation. Bempikibart Development Program in AA: Following completion of the Part B 36-week treatment period and 16-week off-drug follow-up period, eligible patients can enroll in an OLE. Enrollment and dosing remain ongoing in the OLE. Analysis from the Part B 16-week off-drug follow-up period and OLE will inform the bempikibart long-term chronic maintenance regimen, which could include monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly dosing, which will be evaluated in future studies. Q32 Bio anticipates data from the Part B OLE in the second half of 2027. Q32 Bio plans to advance bempikibart into a registration-directed program for patients with severe or very severe AA in the first half of 2027 subject to planned regulatory discussions in the second half of 2026. Additionally, based on results observed, Q32 Bio is evaluating opportunities for bempikibart in expanded AA populations as well as in other autoimmune and inflammatory indications.

(Nasdaq: QTTB) ("Q32 Bio"), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing innovative therapies for alopecia areata ("AA") and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided recent corporate updates. "Our progress so far this year has been transformative for Q32 Bio and our bempikibart development program. In July, we reported positive topline results from Part B of our SIGNAL-AA program, demonstrating clinically meaningful efficacy, preliminary signs of durability, and a well-tolerated safety profile in patients with severe and very severe alopecia areata. We look forward to sharing additional details from our 36-week results and initial findings from our 52-week results at an upcoming medical meeting," said Jodie Morrison, Chief Executive Officer of Q32 Bio. "The emerging profile of bempikibart represents a compelling opportunity to address the shortcomings of currently available treatments for patients in need of an effective, safe, and more durable alternative. We believe our data has set the bar for a biologic in alopecia areata and demonstrates the potential for bempikibart to become a standard of care, first-line option for patients." Ms. Morrison added, "With our recently completed public offering and 36-week Part B results, we are well positioned to advance planned regulatory discussions and initiate a registration-directed program evaluating bempikibart in severe and very severe alopecia areata in the first half of 2027. Additionally, we believe the results observed across bempikibart development to date represent a foundation for broader development, and we are currently evaluating opportunities in expanded alopecia areata populations, as well as in additional I&I indications where IL-7 and TSLP signaling play a role. In parallel, we are advancing a half-life extended development candidate with the same mechanism of action as bempikibart." Second Quarter 2026 and Recent Business Highlights Reported positive 36-week topline results from Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial. The Part B portion of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is an open-label clinical trial evaluating bempikibart, a fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody designed to re-regulate adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signaling, in 33 patients with severe or very severe AA with a maximum duration of current episode of four years. Patients are treated with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with off-drug follow-up out to 52 weeks before optional enrollment in the open-label extension ("OLE"). In Part B, bempikibart demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy on the primary endpoint with a mean percent reduction in Severity of Alopecia Tool ("SALT") score from baseline of 35.3% in the prespecified modified intent-to-treat ("mITT") analysis. Additionally, 40.0% of patients achieved a SALT-20 (80% of scalp hair coverage) response at Week 36 in the mITT analysis and 30.3% of patients achieved a SALT-20 response at Week 36 in the intent-to-treat ("ITT") analysis of all enrolled patients. In Part B, bempikibart was generally well-tolerated, consistent with prior studies, with no new safety signals, and demonstrated a favorable pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and anti-drug antibody profile. Results from SIGNAL-AA Part B, including additional Week 36 data as well as initial findings from the off-drug period through Week 52, will be presented at a medical meeting in the second half of 2026. Patient enrollment and dosing in the SIGNAL-AA Part B OLE remain ongoing. Following completion of the Part B 36-week treatment period and 16-week off-drug follow-up period through Week 52, eligible patients can enroll in an OLE. Enrollment and dosing remain ongoing in the OLE. Analysis from the Part B 16-week off-drug follow-up period and OLE will inform the bempikibart long-term chronic maintenance regimen, which could include monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly dosing, which will be evaluated in future studies. Q32 Bio anticipates data from the Part B OLE in the second half of 2027. Registration-directed program evaluating bempikibart in patients with severe or very severe AA expected to initiate in the first half of 2027 and additional development opportunities being evaluated. Q32 Bio plans to advance bempikibart in patients with severe or very severe AA into a registration-directed program in the first half of 2027 subject to planned regulatory discussions in the second half of 2026. Additionally, based on results observed, Q32 Bio is evaluating opportunities for bempikibart in expanded AA populations as well as in additional immunology and inflammation ("I&I") indications. Half-life extended fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody, ADX-914-XL, advancing in pre-clinical development. Today, Q32 Bio announced that ADX-914-XL, a fully human half-life extended anti-IL-7Rα antibody designed to re-regulate adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signaling, is advancing in pre-clinical development. Developed using half-life extension technology, ADX-914-XL is designed to provide the clinical activity and safety profile observed to date with bempikibart while offering an extended dosing schedule. Completed $200.0 million public offering. In July 2026, Q32 Bio completed a public offering of common stock and pre-funded warrants, raising gross proceeds of approximately $200.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by Q32 Bio. Financial Results Cash and cash equivalents were $106.3 million as of June 30, 2026, which excludes proceeds from our July 2026 public offering. Q32 Bio believes its cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026, combined with proceeds from the July 2026 public offering, are sufficient to fund operations through topline Phase 3 results from its planned registration-directed program evaluating bempikibart in patients with severe or very severe AA. Research and development expenses were $4.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was due to lower ADX-097 spend due to the sale of the program in November 2025, partially offset by higher bempikibart manufacturing costs and nonclinical activities as compared to the prior year. General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher stock-based compensation expense and other expenses as compared to the prior year. Net loss was $8.9 million, or $0.44 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net loss of $9.5 million, or $0.78 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Q32 Bio Shares Jump 60% After Positive Mid-Stage Alopecia Trial Results (QTTB)

InvestorsHub

Q32 Bio Inc. (NASDAQ:QTTB) shares surged 60% on Monday after the biotechnology company announced positive topline results from the 36-week Part B analysis of its SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a study evaluating bempikibart for the treatment of severe and very severe alopecia areata. The encouraging clinical update strengthened investor optimism around the therapy’s development prospects and the company’s plans to advance the programme toward late-stage trials. The Phase 2a trial met its primary efficacy endpoint, with patients in the prespecified modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population recording a mean 35.3% reduction in Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores from baseline after 36 weeks. The company also reported that 40.0% of patients in the mITT population achieved a SALT-20 response by Week 36, while 30.3% of all enrolled patients in the intent-to-treat analysis reached the same milestone. The study enrolled 33 participants with severe or very severe alopecia areata, each with baseline SALT scores ranging from 50 to 100. More than one-third of the patients (36.4%) had previously received treatment with oral JAK inhibitors. Participants were initially given four weekly loading doses of 200mg of bempikibart before moving to a maintenance schedule of 200mg every other week for the remaining 32 weeks of the study. Q32 Bio said bempikibart continued to demonstrate a favourable safety profile throughout the trial. No treatment-related serious adverse events or Grade 3 or higher adverse events were reported. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was injection-site reactions, affecting 36.3% of patients. According to the company, these reactions were generally mild and resolved without medical intervention. Following the positive Phase 2a findings, Q32 Bio intends to move bempikibart into a registration-directed clinical programme during the first half of 2027. The company also plans to present the complete Part B dataset at a future scientific conference. Bempikibart is a fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody designed to restore adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signalling pathways.

We are grateful to the patients, investigators, employees, and clinical development partners who helped make today's announcement possible." "Alopecia areata is a complex, immune driven disease with limited therapeutic options. The robust efficacy data in a population that includes JAK inhibitor-experienced patients, combined with a differentiated safety profile, demonstrate the potential for bempikibart to be a first-line treatment for alopecia areata," said Arash Mostaghimi, MD, MPA, MPH, Associate Professor of Dermatology and Vice Chair of Clinical Trials and Innovation, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School. "For patients and prescribers seeking an effective and safe alternative to JAK inhibitors, these findings are encouraging and merit further clinical advancement." 36-Week Topline Results from Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Program: The Part B portion of the SIGNAL-AA program is an open-label clinical trial building upon the previously completed Part A, which established proof-of-concept of bempikibart in AA. In Part B, bempikibart is being evaluated in 33 patients with severe or very severe AA (baseline Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores of 50-100) with a maximum duration of current episode of four years. Enrollment amongst patients with prior exposure to JAK inhibitor therapy were allowed; amongst the 33 enrolled patients, 36.4% had previously been treated with oral JAK inhibitors. Total enrollment exceeded the initial target due to patient demand. In Part B, patients are treated with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with off-drug follow-up through Week 52 before optional enrollment in the open-label extension (OLE). Dosing includes an initial loading regimen of 200mg of bempikibart dosed weekly for four doses, followed by continued dosing of 200mg every-other-week over a 32-week period, for a total dosing period of 36 weeks. Across both regimens, bempikibart was administered subcutaneously (SC). The prespecified primary efficacy analysis was evaluated on the basis of mean percentage change from baseline in SALT scores in the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population. Additional prespecified efficacy analyses included the proportion of patients achieving various relative and absolute SALT improvements including SALT-20 (80% of scalp hair coverage), SALT30 (30% improvement in SALT score from baseline), and SALT50 (50% improvement in SALT score from baseline) responses at Week 36, with follow-up through Week 52. Key topline efficacy results from Part B of SIGNAL-AA at Week 36 include: Mean percent reduction in SALT score from baseline of 35.3% in the mITT analysis. 40.0% (10/25) of patients in the mITT analysis and 30.3% (10/33) of patients in the intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis achieved a SALT-20 response. Achievement of a SALT-20 response was observed in patients with both severe and very severe disease. 44.0% (11/25) of patients in the mITT analysis and 33.3% (11/33) of patients in the ITT analysis achieved SALT30 response. 44.0% (11/25) of patients in the mITT and 33.3% (11/33) of patients in the ITT analysis achieved SALT50 response. Early signs of durability in the off-drug period include maintenance or deepening of response in multiple patients including one who achieved complete hair growth (SALT = 0). Bempikibart was observed to have a generally well-tolerated safety profile in SIGNAL-AA Part B, consistent with prior studies. No new safety signals were observed. There were no serious adverse events (SAEs) or Grade 3 or higher adverse events related to treatment. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was injection site reaction (ISR) (36.3%) which were primarily singular events, with ISR incidence of 4% across all Part B dose administrations. All ISRs reported were mild and resolved with no intervention, with the majority resolving within a day. Bempikibart demonstrated a favorable pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic and anti-drug antibody (ADA) profile in Part B. PK data from Part B support the loading dose regimen had its intended effect, achieving steady state concentrations approximately 10 weeks earlier than in Part A. Negligible ADA was observed in Part B. "These results provide important further evidence that our differentiated approach to targeting the biology underlying alopecia areata has the potential to translate into meaningful and durable clinical benefit for patients," said Shelia Violette, Ph.D., Co-Founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Q32 Bio. "Despite recent advances, many patients continue to seek treatment options that combine robust efficacy with improved safety and the potential for sustained disease control. These findings strengthen our confidence in the therapeutic potential of this mechanism and its continued advancement as a differentiated treatment option for patients living with alopecia areata and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases." The Part B off-drug follow-up period through Week 52 remains ongoing. Additionally, enrollment of eligible patients into the OLE remains ongoing. Q32 Bio intends to advance bempikibart into a registration-directed program in the first half of 2027 and plans to share full results from Part B at a future medical meeting. Results from SIGNAL-AA Part A OLE: Following the emergence of Part A data suggesting durability of response in the off-drug follow-up from SIGNAL-AA Part A and given patient demand for continued dosing, Q32 Bio announced the initiation of an OLE in April 2025. The Part A OLE has been completed. Eight patients enrolled in the Part A OLE, spanning responders, non-responders, and placebo patients from the Part A treatment portion. Patients were off-drug for various time periods ranging from 26 to 55 weeks prior to re-dosing. In the Part A OLE, bempikibart continued to demonstrate a generally well-tolerated safety profile with longer-term dosing and no new safety issues. Patients who maintained hair at entry to the OLE were observed to have durable or further hair growth. In totality, the Part A OLE dataset supports the importance of a maintenance dosing regimen. Conference Call In connection with this announcement, Q32 Bio will host a conference call and webcast with accompanying slides today at 8:00 a.m. E.T.

We continue to be encouraged by the profile of bempikibart in Part B based on pharmacokinetic data and clinical activity observed to-date," said Jodie Morrison, Chief Executive Officer of Q32 Bio. "There is significant demand from patients in Part B for continued dosing after the post-treatment follow-up period, and we are thrilled to announce that the first patient has been dosed in the OLE portion of Part B.

First Quarter 2026 and Recent Business Highlights Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial remains on-track, with 36-week topline data readout expected in mid-2026. The Part B portion of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is an open-label clinical trial evaluating bempikibart, a fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody designed to re-regulate adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signaling, in 33 patients with severe or very severe AA with a maximum duration of current episode of four years. Total enrollment exceeded the initial target due to patient demand. Patients are treated with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with post-treatment follow-up out to 52 weeks before optional enrollment in the OLE. Dosing includes an initial loading regimen of 200mg of bempikibart dosed weekly for four doses, followed by a maintenance dose of 200mg every-other-week over a 32-week period, for a total dosing period of 36 weeks. Efficacy will be evaluated on the basis of mean percentage change from baseline in Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores, as well as the proportion of subjects achieving various relative and absolute SALT improvements at week 36, with follow-up through week 52. Encouraging signs of clinical activity are being observed in Part B of the trial. In addition, based on preliminary pharmacokinetic data available to date in the Part B portion of SIGNAL-AA, steady state concentration of drug in patients was observed at least nine weeks earlier as compared to Part A of the clinical trial due to the inclusion of the loading regimen, which may have the potential to induce earlier responsiveness. The trial is intended to support advancement into pivotal trials upon completion, pending review of the results. Q32 Bio expects to report 36-week topline results in mid-2026. After completion of the trial through 52 weeks, eligible patients can enter an open-label extension (OLE) period following the same dosing paradigm as Part B, to enable longer-term follow-up and continued data collection. The first patient has been dosed in the OLE portion of Part B. Part A OLE of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is complete. Based on the continued emergence of bempikibart data suggesting a remittive effect and durable responses in long-term follow-up from SIGNAL-AA Part A, as well as strong re-consent rates and patient demand for continued dosing, Q32 Bio initiated an OLE in April 2025 for eligible patients that completed Part A to enable longer-term follow-up of patients. The Part A OLE has been completed, and Q32 Bio intends to report findings from the Part A OLE with the Part B 36-week topline results in mid-2026. Completed $10.5 million registered direct offering . In February 2026, Q32 Bio completed a registered direct offering of 1,666,679 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,025,654 shares of common stock at an offering price of $3.90 per share of common stock and $3.8999 per pre-funded warrant. The gross proceeds to Q32 Bio from this offering were approximately $10.5 million, before deducting certain offering expenses of approximately $0.1 million. This transaction was led by a new institutional investor with participation by an existing dedicated public institutional investor. Financial Results Cash and cash equivalents were $50.8 million as of March 31, 2026, which excludes $14.2 million in gross proceeds from sales under our at-the-market (ATM) program received after the end of the quarter. Q32 Bio believes its cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026, combined with guaranteed near-term milestone payments from the ADX-097 asset sale and proceeds from sales under the ATM program after the end of the quarter, are sufficient to fund operations into the first half of 2028. Research and development expenses were $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was due to lower personnel-related costs due to reduced headcount, lower bempikibart clinical expense, as well as lower ADX-097 spend due to the sale of the program in November 2025, as compared to the prior year. General and administrative expenses were $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily due to lower legal and consulting costs as compared to the prior year. Net loss was $7.6 million, or $0.54 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net loss of $11.0 million, or $0.90 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Q32 Bio Gears Up to Report Q1 Earnings: What's in the Cards?

Zacks
We expect investors to focus on updates related to Q32 Bio’s QTTB pipeline development when it reports first-quarter 2026 earnings. Since the company lacks a marketed drug in its portfolio, no revenues are expected to have been recorded from product sales in the first quarter of 2026. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the first-quarter bottom line is pegged at a loss of 52 cents per share. With no approved/marketed product in its portfolio, investor focus on Q32 Bio’s earnings call is likely to be on updates related to its most advanced product candidate, bempikibart (ADX-914), a fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody, which is being developed for treating alopecia areata (“AA”). The company recently completed enrollment in part B of the phase IIa SIGNAL-AA study, which is evaluating bempikibart in patients with severe or very severe AA. Patients in the study will receive bempikibart for 36 weeks, with follow-up out to 52 weeks. Top-line data from the study is expected to be announced in mid-2026. Investors will be keen to get more updates on the same on the first-quarter earnings call. The FDA previously granted Fast Track designation to bempikibart for the treatment of AA. Year to date, shares of Q32 Bio have surged 65.6% against the industry’s 1.5% decline. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research In December 2025, Q32 Bio sold its phase II complement inhibitor, ADX-097, to Akebia Therapeutics AKBA. This deal with AKBA looks like a strategic fit for Q32 Bio, as it is likely to help the latter focus on advancing bempikibart for AA and fund pipeline development activities. Per the deal, Q32 Bio is eligible to receive up to a total of $592 million as potential milestone payments, including an upfront payment of $12 million from Akebia. This is likely to fund QTTB’s operations into the fourth quarter of 2027. Operating expenses are likely to have declined in the to-be-reported quarter, reflecting lower costs related to clinical studies and other expenses. Q32 Bio has an encouraging history of earnings surprises. The company beat on earnings in each of the trailing three quarters, delivering an average surprise of 205.94%.

(Nasdaq: QTTB) ("Q32 Bio"), a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing innovative therapies for alopecia areata (AA) and other autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, today reported financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, and provided recent corporate updates. "In 2025, we executed on our plan to focus on the advancement of bempikibart for the treatment of AA and as we enter 2026, we are poised to deliver 36-week topline results from Part B of SIGNAL-AA by mid-year.

"With a strategic focus on the advancement of bempikibart for AA, we completed the asset sale of ADX-097 to Akebia in December 2025 and completed a $10.5 million registered direct offering in February 2026. There remains significant need for safer and more durable therapies in AA, and we believe bempikibart has the potential to transform the treatment paradigm. We look forward to building on the momentum established from our clinical execution throughout 2026." Fourth Quarter 2025 and Recent Business Highlights Completed enrollment in Part B of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial and increased the trial size to 33 patients based on patient demand, with 36-week topline data readout expected in mid-2026. The Part B portion of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is an open-label clinical trial evaluating bempikibart, a fully human anti-IL-7Rα antibody designed to re-regulate adaptive immune function by blocking IL-7 and TSLP signaling, in 33 patients with severe or very severe AA with a maximum duration of current episode of four years. Patients will be treated with bempikibart for 36 weeks, with follow-up out to 52 weeks. Dosing includes an initial loading regimen of 200mg of bempikibart dosed weekly for four doses, followed by a maintenance dose of 200mg every-other-week over a 32-week period for a total dosing period of 36 weeks. Efficacy will be evaluated on the basis of mean percentage change from baseline in Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) scores as well as the proportion of subjects achieving various relative and absolute SALT improvements at week 36, with follow-up through week 52. Emerging signs of clinical activity are being observed in Part B of the trial. In addition, based on preliminary pharmacokinetic data available to date in the Part B portion of SIGNAL-AA, steady state concentration of drug in patients is achieved at least nine weeks earlier as compared to Part A of the clinical trial due to the inclusion of the loading regimen, which may have the potential to induce earlier responsiveness. The trial is intended to support advancement into pivotal trials upon completion, pending review of the results. Q32 Bio expects to report 36-week topline results in mid-2026. Part A OLE of the SIGNAL-AA Phase 2a clinical trial is ongoing. Based on the continued emergence of bempikibart data suggesting a remittive effect and durable responses in long-term follow-up from SIGNAL-AA Part A, as well as re-consent rates and strong patient demand for continued dosing, Q32 Bio initiated an OLE in April 2025 for eligible patients that completed Part A to enable longer-term follow-up of patients and remains ongoing. Completed $10.5 million registered direct offering ("RDO"). In February 2026, Q32 Bio completed an RDO of 1,666,679 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 1,025,654 shares of common stock at an offering price of $3.90 per share of common stock and $3.8999 per pre-funded warrant. The gross proceeds to Q32 Bio from this offering were approximately $10.5 million, before deducting certain offering expenses. Sold Phase 2 complement inhibitor, ADX-097, to Akebia Therapeutics ("Akebia"). Akebia has acquired ADX-097 and will be responsible for its future development and commercialization. Under the terms of the agreement, Q32 Bio will receive $12 million in upfront payments and a near-term milestone, which includes $7 million received at signing during the fourth quarter of 2025, $3 million at the 6-month anniversary of signing, and $2 million payable upon the earlier of the achievement of a milestone or the end of 2026. Including these payments, Q32 Bio is eligible to receive up to $592 million upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory and commercial milestones. Q32 Bio is also eligible to receive tiered royalties on potential future sales of ADX-097, ranging from low single-digit to mid-teen percentages. Terminated all remaining obligations to Amgen (formerly Horizon). Q32 Bio entered into an amendment to the Termination Agreement with Amgen pursuant to which Q32 Bio made a one-time equity grant to Amgen as full consideration of potential milestone payments owed under such agreement. Q32 Bio now has no remaining obligations to Amgen. Financial Results Cash and cash equivalents were $48.3 million as of December 31, 2025, which excludes proceeds from the February 2026 RDO received after the end of the quarter. Q32 Bio believes its cash and cash equivalents, combined with gross proceeds from the RDO and guaranteed near-term milestone payments from the ADX-097 asset sale, will be sufficient to fund operations into the fourth quarter of 2027, through 36-week topline results of the SIGNAL-AA Part B trial evaluating bempikibart in patients with AA which are expected in mid-2026. Research and development expenses were $3.3 million and $19.2 million for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to $10.5 million and $48.1 million for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to lower bempikibart development costs including clinical and manufacturing expenses, lower ADX-097 program spend due to the discontinuation of the ADX-097 Phase 2 renal basket clinical trial, as well as lower personnel-related costs as compared to the prior year. General and administrative expenses were $4.5 million and $17.7 million for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to $4.0 million and $18.0 million for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. The increase in expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the prior year was primarily due to higher personnel-related costs, including stock-based compensation. The decrease in expense for the full year 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily due to lower personnel-related costs. Net income was $57.7 million, or $4.60 basic and $4.58 diluted net income per share, and $29.8 million, or $2.42 basic and diluted net income per share, for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, respectively, compared to net loss of ($14.2) million, or ($1.16) basic and diluted net loss per share, and ($47.7) million, or ($5.12) basic and ($6.58) diluted net loss per share for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024, respectively. Net income for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025 is primarily driven by the recognition of non-cash collaboration revenue associated with entering into the amended agreement with Amgen as well as the sale of ADX-097 to Akebia in the fourth quarter of 2025.
