BiomX Reports Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results and Provides Business Update
Continued Progress Enrolling Patients in Phase 1/2 Trial of BX004 for Treatment of Lung Infections in Cystic Fibrosis; Results from Part 1 of the Trial Now Expected in Q1 2023
Announced Publication in Cell of Research Demonstrating Proof-of-Concept Assessment of Orally Administered Phage Treatment in Preclinical Model of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Cash Runway Through at Least Mid-2024
Company Will Host a Conference Call and Webcast Today at 8:00 am ET
NESS ZIONA, Israel – November 9, 2022 – BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE) (“BiomX” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage microbiome company advancing novel natural and engineered phage therapies that target specific pathogenic bacteria, today reported financial results and provided a business update for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
“Despite encountering challenges early in the quarter in recruiting cystic fibrosis patients following the COVID-19 pandemic, we have recently put in place important mechanisms to accelerate screening and enrollment and are encouraged by the recent increased enrollment into BX004 that will impact both parts of the trial,” said Jonathan Solomon, Chief Executive Officer of BiomX. “Based on these latest trends, we now anticipate that enrollment for Part 1 of the study will be complete by year-end. Factoring in a modest impact from the U.S. holiday season and the time required for data analysis following each patient’s treatment period, we now expect to announce results from Part 1 of the trial in the first quarter of 2023, followed by results from Part 2 in the third quarter of 2023. We believe that we remain financially and operationally positioned to execute on our business plan with respect to our CF program, with cash runway anticipated to take us through at least mid-2024. We appreciate the continued support of our shareholders and look forward to providing our initial data from the CF program.”
Clinical Program Updates
Cystic Fibrosis (BX004)
| ● | BiomX has dosed the first patients in the Company’s Phase 1b/2a study evaluating BX004 for the treatment of chronic respiratory infections in patients with cystic fibrosis (“CF”). |
| ● | BX004 is being developed for the treatment of chronic respiratory infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a main contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with CF. |
| ● | The Phase 1b/2a trial is composed of two parts. Part 1 of the study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and microbiologic/clinical activity of BX004 in eight CF patients in a single ascending dose and multiple dose design, with results expected in the first quarter of 2023. Part 2 of the study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of BX004 in 24 CF patients randomized to a treatment or placebo cohort in a 2:1 ratio. Results from Part 2 are expected in the third quarter of 2023. |
| ● | As previously announced, BiomX has received a Therapeutics Development Award of up to $5 million from the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (“CF Foundation”). The award is structured as an equity investment in which the CF Foundation has agreed to purchase up to $5 million of BiomX common stock across two separate tranches. The first tranche was received on December 21, 2021, with the CF Foundation making an initial equity investment of $3 million. Upon completion of all patient dosing in Part 1 of the Company’s Phase 1b/2a study of BX004, BiomX would have the right to receive the second tranche of $2 million, also as an equity investment. |
Atopic Dermatitis (BX005)
| ● | The Company is collaborating with Maruho Co. Ltd., a leading dermatology-focused pharmaceutical company in Japan, supporting a range of pre-clinical activities to move this program forward, and working on evaluating timelines for a clinical trial. |
RECENT CORPORATE HIGHLIGHTS
| ● | In August, the Company announced the publication of a scientific paper titled “Targeted suppression of human IBD-associated gut microbiota commensals by phage consortia for treatment of intestinal inflammation” in the journal, Cell. The research was conducted across several organizations, including BiomX and the Weizmann Institute of Science, and presents phage proof of concept in preclinical models of inflammatory bowel disease as well as highlights from the clinical study. The paper is available online at https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(22)00850-9. |
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Results
| ● | Cash balance, short-term deposits and restricted cash as of September 30, 2022, were $41.5 million, compared to $63.1 million as of December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to net cash used in operating activities. Based upon the Company’s strategic focus on the CF program, the existing cash and cash equivalents are expected to be sufficient to fund the current operating plan until at least the middle of 2024. |
| ● | Research and development expenses, net were $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and related expenses and stock-based compensation expenses driven by a reduction in personnel, as part of the corporate restructuring the Company announced in May of this year, as well as pausing the development of BX003, the product candidate for the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, pausing the development of the Company’s colorectal cancer product candidate, and the discontinuation of the Company’s product candidate for the treatment of acne, BX001. The decrease was partially offset by a decrease in grants from the Israel Innovation Authority. |
| ● | General and administrative expenses were $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and related expenses and stock-based compensation expenses due to a reduction in workforce. |
2
| ● | Net loss for the third quarter of 2022 was $6.8 million, compared to $10 million for the same period in 2021. |
| ● | Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $21.9 million, compared to $18.5 million for the same period in 2021. |

Safe Harbor
This press release contains express or implied “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “target,” “believe,” “expect,” “will,” “may,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “would,” “positioned,” “future,” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. For example, when BiomX discusses future updates on its CF and Atopic Dermatitis programs, its expectations regarding the timing of the completion of enrollment and results of the CF trial, the potential safety, tolerability and potential treatment effect of its product candidates, the potential to achieve the applicable clinical milestones required to receive an additional $2 million investment from CFF, and its cash runway and financial and operational position, BiomX is making forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on BiomX management’s current beliefs, expectations and assumptions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of BiomX’s control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, investors should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements and should review the risks and uncertainties described under the caption “Risk Factors” in BiomX’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2022 and additional disclosures BiomX makes in its other filings with the SEC, which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press release, and except as provided by law BiomX expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update forward-looking statements.
