Acumen Pharmaceuticals Inc (ABOS) Quote

I'm also guessing there were probably another batch of shares issued for this past years' service to these same officers. We won't know that until the 10K comes out at the end of March

On Thursday, 5 officers (including our CEO) of Acumen filed 144 Forms to sell an aggregate of 90,630 shares. My guess is that that shares were issued a year ago as a year end bonus to these 5 officers.

ABOS, under $2

There will be more tax loss selling and no rush to get back in as there will be no phase II results for MANY months.

I think this could be a VERY powerful long term investment but it will require a lot of patience which most investors of today's times don't have. Everyone wants to be a trader and buy at the last possible time.

Agree, a good investment at this price, with a potential upside worth the wait. You are probably right on the reason for the dip, did not expect it. Suppose its a good time to buy more at a ridiculous price.

The recent Evercore discussion highlights on a lot of good points, and worth listening to. Looking forward to updates next Q1 on results of current trials, and new trials.

"Video Journal of Dementia (VJDementia) " post ongoing videos on dementia, and has Acumen videos on the p-tau217 assay.

Obviously an attractive tax loss candidate as there is no meaningful news expected near term and a tax loss seller will have the opportunity to buy back after 31 days.

This is a long term investment with ridiculous upside if the phase II trial is successful. However; you will have to be very patient with this investment.

A marketed competitor, Lecanemab, is going the SC-AI route,

Significant comments made in this discussion last week.......

Discussion is very good, best part is little more than 4:00 into discussion Siemers mentions Sabirnetug Efficacy is better and fewer side effects then the competition, Lecanemab , and Donanemab.....Cool......

SP is looking good today, along with volume.....

A lot of news out there on the competition LEQEMBI, and Donanemab, giving insight on Sabirnetug potential.

Interesting news from a couple days on wasted volumes of the competition, giving insight into the cost of the drug and giving yet another reason for a prefilled AI.

https://www.uclahealth.org/news/release/smaller-vial-size-alzheimers-drug-could-save-medicare

"The researchers on the study, published(Link is external) October 14 in the peer-reviewed JAMA Internal Medicine, estimate that Medicare could waste up to $336 million annually due to discarded medication."

“However, we estimate lecanemab waste to be only 5.8%, rendering current policy ineffective, and sounding the bell that further policy changes are likely needed,” he said.

Lonza is on board, and will make a good CDMO partner.

"If The CDMO Shoe Fits, Wear It Now"

"In November of 2022, Acumen entered an agreement with Lonza that granted it a worldwide non-exclusive license to use Lonza’s glutamine synthetase gene expression system to manufacture and commercialize ACU193/sabirnetug."

"Although that predates his joining Acumen (in February of this year), Doherty says there had been an earlier round of work performed with a different set of providers, “but as we announced, we are working with Lonza moving forward.”

https://www.outsourcedpharma.com/doc/if-the-cdmo-shoe-fits-wear-it-now-0001

Another speculative piece of info is the new Director position.

One of the Qualifications is:

"Extensive experience (15+ years) in regulatory affairs within the biopharmaceutical industry; monoclonal antibody experience required; biologics (large molecule) and drug-device combination experience is preferable."

Drug-device is an autoinjector, IMO.

https://theorg.com/org/acumen-pharmaceuticals/jobs/director-cmc-regulatory-b576d02a

Yes, one of these days, but still accumulating so don't want it to move up too fast.

The presentation last week is worth listening to, and doing a thorough review of the PowerPoint info. They did a good job of explaining sabirnetug development and progress. An interesting (and exciting) detail is improvements were measured in a few biomarkers after only 3 doses.

Slide 68 show they are working with Halozyme for SC injection, completed Phase 1, and Phase 2 will start soon. IMO, they will develop an autoinjector for sabirnetug using Holzyme Enhanze and AI. At the end of the Q&A section the speaker mentions the difficulty of developing an AI.

Will be waiting for the current ALTITUDE trial update, a good update will move the SP, and planning on being all in by then.

"Expected Phase 1 subcutaneous topline results 1Q25"

"Expected completion of enrollment of ALTITUDE-AD 1H25"

Add in $2.30s ready to go one of these days .. Sabirnetug is the first humanized monoclonal antibody to clinically demonstrate selective target engagement of AßOs in AD patients. Soluble AßOs are a highly toxic form of Aß that begin to accumulate before a clinical diagnosis of AD and are an early and persistent trigger of synaptic dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Acumen is developing sabirnetug as a potential next generation antibody treatment for early AD. Acumen is currently enrolling patients in the ALTITUDE sabirnetug -AD study, a Phase 2 clinical trial designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of intravenous sabirnetug in patients with early AD. Acumen is also evaluating a subcutaneous formulation of sabirnetug in a Phase 1 pharmacokinetic comparison study in healthy volunteers.

The extended collaboration builds upon an existing successful relationship between the two companies, in which Lonza provides DS manufacturing for the Phase 2 clinical supply of sabirnetug. Under the terms of the extended agreement, Lonza will manufacture cGMP DP of sabirnetug for the ongoing and future clinical phases and support the potential commercial launch at its industry-leading state-of-the-art DP manufacturing facility in Visp, Switzerland. Lonza will also provide quality control and stability testing as part of the collaboration.

Peter Droc, Head of Drug Product Services, Lonza, commented: “Our team of experts has extensive experience in supporting the clinical and commercial manufacture of drug products. In line with our strategy to offer an integrated end-to-end offering for biologics manufacturing, we are looking forward to collaborating with Acumen to advance its innovative and promising drug candidate in the clinic and beyond.”

James Doherty, President and Chief Development Officer, Acumen Pharmaceuticals, added: “The extension of our collaboration comes at a time when we’re advancing our clinical programs for sabirnetug with more than 50 Phase 2 sites activated across the U.S., Canada, U.K. and EU. We look forward to continuing our work with Lonza and delivering a potential next-generation treatment for early Alzheimer’s disease.”

About Sabirnetug (ACU193)

Sabirnetug (ACU193) is a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) discovered and developed based on its selectivity for soluble amyloid beta oligomers (AßOs), which are a highly toxic and pathogenic form of Aß, relative to Aß monomers and amyloid plaques. Soluble AßOs have been observed to be potent neurotoxins that bind to neurons, inhibit synaptic function and induce neurodegeneration. By selectively targeting toxic soluble AßOs, sabirnetug aims to address the hypothesis that soluble AßOs are an early and persistent underlying cause of the neurodegenerative process in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Sabirnetug has been granted Fast Track designation for the treatment of early AD by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 2 study in patients with early AD.

About Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

Acumen Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel therapeutic that targets toxic soluble amyloid beta oligomers (AßOs) for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Acumen’s scientific founders pioneered research on AßOs, which a growing body of evidence indicates are early and persistent triggers of Alzheimer’s disease pathology. Acumen is currently focused on advancing its investigational product candidate, sabirnetug (ACU193), a humanized monoclonal antibody that selectively targets toxic soluble AßOs, in its ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial ALTITUDE-AD (NCT06335173) in early symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease patients, following positive results in its Phase 1 trial INTERCEPT-AD. The company is headquartered in Newton, Mass. For more information, visit www.acumenpharm.com.

Acumen Pharmaceuticals Presents Positive Topline Results from First-in-Human Phase 1 Study of ACU193 for Early Alzheimer’s Disease at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) 2023

Source: GlobeNewswire Inc.

Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABOS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel therapeutic that targets soluble amyloid beta oligomers (AßOs) for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), today presented positive topline results from the Phase 1 INTERCEPT-AD trial of ACU193, the first clinical-stage AßO targeting antibody therapy in early AD, at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC®) 2023, taking place in Amsterdam and online from July 16-20, 2023.
Topline results demonstrated that ACU193 was generally well-tolerated with a compelling overall safety profile, meeting the primary objective of this Phase 1, first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in both single and multiple doses in 60 participants with early AD. Dose levels were 2, 10, 25 and 60 mg/kg for one to three doses administered intravenously. An analysis of change in amyloid plaque load, as measured by positron emission tomography (PET) SUVr, demonstrated a rapid, dose-related mean decrease at the higher dose levels studied (60 mg/kg every 4 weeks [Q4W] and 25 mg/kg every 2 weeks [Q2W]). This finding is comparable to mean amyloid plaque decreases of approved Aß monoclonal antibodies at similar time points in their clinical development. The overall rate of amyloid related imaging abnormalities – edema (ARIA-E) was 10.4%, which included one case of symptomatic ARIA-E (2.1%). Pharmacokinetic results in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) demonstrated statistically significant dose proportionality and support monthly dosing of ACU193. Statistically significant, dose-related central target engagement was observed as measured by ACU193-AßO complex, establishing the first target engagement assay developed that is specific to an AßO-targeting antibody. An exposure response relationship (Emax) model revealed near maximal target engagement with repeated dosing at 25 mg/kg and 60 mg/kg.

“We are very pleased to present the first clinical data from our Phase 1 INTERCEPT-AD study at AAIC. ACU193’s observed dose-related central target engagement, rapid reduction of amyloid plaque and compelling safety profile validate our confidence in ACU193’s differentiated mechanism of action: selectively targeting amyloid beta oligomers,” said Daniel O’Connell, President and Chief Executive Officer of Acumen. “We believe that the robust data package generated by this comprehensive Phase 1 study establishes ACU193’s broad therapeutic index and guides a future clinical dosing rationale. We look forward to an anticipated interaction with the FDA in the fourth quarter to inform our next phase of development for ACU193.”

ACU193 Demonstrated Rapid, Dose-Related, Statistically Significant Amyloid Plaque Reduction
Higher doses of ACU193 (60 mg/kg Q4W and 25 mg/kg Q2W) showed a statistically significant reduction in amyloid plaque load as determined by amyloid PET after 6-12 weeks (from baseline to endpoint within cohorts (p = 0.01)). This finding provides evidence that ACU193 is active in the brain.

Down over 50% from yearly highs and still dropping. Back to 3's I guess.

One penny away haha. That's amazing. Charts never lie.

Almost there.

Getting close to my buy price. 6s probably today

I'm a buyer under $7. Just going by the charts and support is at $6.50 ish range. GL.

I never look at YouTube or analysts ELLIOTT WAVES and fibonanci..If the .618 holds at 7.95 would be bullish for wave 5 on the ELLIOTT WAVE either that or it goes to the fibonanci .382 level in the 6s

I know TA. I was just pointing out that these people were pumping it at the peak with a buy rating. That's like a you tuber telling you about a penny stock after it ran up 200% that day. The fibs havnt been very predictable lately in this bear market. But for a short term bounce maybe the .618 is a good indicator. I'm looking at the chart and there is some support at around the $7.00 level and a lot of support at the $6.50ish level. Anything under $8 does seem like a good time to start dollar cost averaging back in however in my opinion. GL. $ABOS

7.95 at the .618 is a buy if the pivot point holds we go to the 1.618 fibonanci extension...Analysts don't mean anything...Chart the fibonanci retracement...You need newbies need to understand technical analysis not reading prs lmfao...

So how much did they pay these analysts to give it a buy a raiting? Back to $5?

Closed @ $10 :)

Me too I'm waiting next week lol

Where's the gap? I can't get my bar chart up on trading view.

I would like the share price to get to 7.65 around 355 PM today. That may not happen as I could be a dollar short.

Gap fill time stochastic overbought

Yes!

broke to the UPside nicely today
