Exhibit 99.1
Chairman’s Address 2025 Annual GeneralMeeting
Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us here in Melbourne for Alterity Therapeutics’ Annual General Meeting. Standing before you today is both a privilege and a poignant moment, as this marks my final AGM as Chairman after more than two decades guiding the company’s ambitions and growth.
When I founded this company, originally known as Prana Biotechnology, my vision was simple yet profound: to improve the lives of people affected by neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. What began as a modest research venture has evolved through tireless innovation and collaboration into a globally recognised clinical-stage biotechnology company. This journey is the result of the remarkable commitment of our team and the enduring confidence of our shareholders.
Over the past year, Alterity has achieved milestones that reflect our collective effort and the power of scientific perseverance. Our lead asset, ATH434, completed two Phase 2 clinical trials in Multiple System Atrophy, a devastating disorder with no disease-modifying therapy. These trials showed that ATH434 can deliver meaningful reduction in disease progression and improve activities of daily living for patients facing the harsh realities of MSA. The FDA Fast Track designation, along with Orphan Drug Status, demonstrates the Agency’s recognition of the promise of our innovation and validates our strategy as we head into Phase 3. The recently conducted market assessment indicates substantial commercial potential for ATH434, but far more importantly, our progress represents hope for patients and families.
Alongside clinical progress, this year also saw breakthroughs in biomarker innovation and a deeper understanding of the mechanism of action of ATH434, each developed in partnership with leading academic institutions, which further cements our leadership in the field. The journey from discovery science to near-term clinical impact has been paved with setbacks, resilience, and ultimately, progress. Transforming Prana into Alterity and focusing our efforts on alpha-synuclein targeting compounds has positioned the company to deliver real change at a global scale.
I would also like to take this moment to recognise and thank Brian Meltzer, who is also stepping down from the Board at today’s AGM after 26 years of dedicated service. Brian’s leadership, both on the Board and as Chairman of our Audit Committee, has helped guide and secure the company through pivotal milestones, transitions, and challenges. On behalf of the Board, management, and shareholders, I extend our deepest gratitude.
As I reflect on my own decision to step down as Chairman, I do so with complete trust in the strength of the Board, management team, and the strategic direction of the business. The transition comes at a pivotal milestone as Alterity is now firmly in the late-stage clinical and commercial arena, poised to make a real difference for patients in great need. My departure is not an end, but the beginning of Alterity’s next chapter; a chapter I am confident will be written with renewed momentum, continued scientific excellence, and an everlasting patient focus.
In closing, I wish to thank our extraordinary team, our clinical partners, and most importantly, the patients and families who inspire everything we do. My deepest gratitude also goes to our Board and to our shareholders, whose steadfast support has enabled this company to thrive. As Alterity advances, I leave with profound pride in what we have achieved together and boundless hope for the impact still to come.
Thank you for your support and for sharing in this journey.
