(NASDAQ: NTLA), a leading clinical-stage gene editing company focused on revolutionizing medicine with CRISPR-based therapies, today presented positive clinical data from a pooled analysis of all patients who received a 50 milligram (mg) dose of lonvo-z in the company’s ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial in patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE). These results were shared in an oral presentation today at the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting in Orlando, Florida. “Today’s data further support our belief that lonvo-z could completely redefine the HAE treatment landscape,” said Intellia President and Chief Executive Officer John Leonard, M.D. “With up to three years of follow-up, the vast majority of patients who received a one-time 50 mg dose of lonvo-z – including 10 of our original 11 patients who received this dose in Phase 2 – were both attack-free and LTP-free as of the data cutoff. We are looking forward to our approaching topline readout from our Phase 3 HAELO clinical trial by mid-2026.” “Hereditary angioedema is a condition with significant burden that is marked by the unpredictable nature of when the next attack could occur, the painful and often prolonged swellings themselves as well as the need for lifelong treatment,” said Dr. Danny Cohn, M.D., Ph.D., Internist, Department of Vascular Medicine, Amsterdam University Medical Center. “The data presented today offer hope that lonvo-z could significantly reduce or remove those burdens for many patients via a one-time treatment. I am eagerly awaiting results from the ongoing HAELO Phase 3 clinical trial.” Pooled Phase 1/2 AnalysisIntellia’s global Phase 1/2 clinical trial is evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of lonvo-z in adults with HAE Types I or II. Today’s presentation was based on a pooled analysis of all 32 patients who have received a one-time 50 mg treatment of lonvo-z via intravenous infusion in the Phase 1/2 trial. Of the 32 patients, 15 had initially received the 50 mg dose at study Day 1 (four in Phase 1 and 11 in Phase 2) and 17 were treated after unblinding of the Phase 2 clinical trial for the primary analysis (11 had originally received a 25 mg dose of lonvo-z, which was determined to be a suboptimal dose, and six had previously received placebo). The data cut-off for the analysis was August 29, 2025. Deep, stable and durable reductions in plasma kallikrein were observed in all patients, with a mean reduction of 89% at month 24. Among the 32 patients, 31 (97%) were both attack-free and LTP-free as of the data cutoff, with 24 (75%) being attack-free and LTP-free for at least seven months (up to 32 months for patients with the longest follow-up). Of the 11 patients who initially received the 50 mg dose of lonvo-z in Phase 2, 10 were attack-free and LTP-free (nine for 7-32 months and one for <6 months). The one patient who was not attack-free and LTP-free as of the data cutoff had a 59% reduction from baseline in their monthly attack rate. Safety After a 50 mg dose, a well-tolerated safety profile was observed for up to three years of follow-up with no long-term risks identified. The most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) within 28 days of infusion were infusion-related reactions, fatigue and headache. The most frequent TEAEs reported ≥28 days after infusion up to long-term follow-up (LTFU) were nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, back pain, arthralgia and COVID-19. A single Grade 2 AST elevation was reported among all patients who received a 50 mg dose of lonvo-z. This event had an onset at Day 1 and spontaneously resolved by Day 4 in a patient previously treated with lonvo-z 25 mg. Safety of the 50 mg dose after patients received the suboptimal dose (25 mg) was consistent with the overall clinical trial population. There were no clinically significant shifts in liver enzymes or coagulation parameters. One serious adverse event (SAE), a pulmonary embolism, was observed in a patient with multiple risk factors one year after the infusion, and the event resolved without sequelae. In LTFU (n=17), there were no SAEs or TEAEs reported with 50 mg of lonvo-z, as of the data cutoff. A one-time 50 mg treatment of lonvo-z is being further evaluated in patients with HAE in the ongoing global Phase 3 HAELO clinical trial that completed enrollment in September 2025. The ACAAI data presentation will be available on the Scientific Publications & Presentations section of intelliatx.com. About the Lonvoguran Ziclumeran (lonvo-z, formerly known as NTLA-2002) Clinical ProgramIntellia’s ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial is evaluating the safety and efficacy of lonvo-z in adults with Type I or Type II hereditary angioedema (HAE). The Phase 1 portion is an international, open-label trial designed to identify the dose level of lonvo-z selected for further evaluation in the Phase 2 portion of the trial. Enrollment in both portions of the Phase 1/2 trial is complete. Intellia completed enrollment in the global Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled HAELO clinical trial in September of 2025. Visit clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05120830) for more details. About Lonvo-zBased on Nobel Prize-winning CRISPR/Cas9 technology, lonvo-z has the potential to become the first one-time treatment for hereditary angioedema (HAE). Lonvo-z is an investigational in vivo CRISPR-based gene editing therapy that is currently being investigated in HAELO, a Phase 3 clinical trial in HAE, and is designed to prevent HAE attacks by inactivating the kallikrein B1 (KLKB1) gene, which encodes for prekallikrein, the kallikrein precursor protein. Interim Phase 1/2 clinical data showed dramatic reductions in attack rate, as well as consistent, deep and durable reductions in kallikrein levels. Lonvo-z has received five notable regulatory designations, including Orphan Drug and RMAT Designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Innovation Passport by the U.K. Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), Priority Medicines (PRIME) Designation by the European Medicines Agency, as well as Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) by the European Commission.
