CAPSID ASSEMBLY MODULATOR ALG-001075 BINDS AND DIRECTLY TARGETS HBEAG (AASLD 2025) - "ALG-001075 demonstrated direct binding to HBeAg and pronounced in vitro reductions in secreted HBeAg levels, in line with clinical observations for its prodrug ALG-000184, suggesting direct inhibition of HBeAg as a third mechanism of action for ALG-001075. Although the direct HBeAg effect requires higher compound concentrations than the primary and secondary effects of CAMs, the high pharmacokinetic exposure achieved with prodrug ALG-000184 and relative HBeAg-targeting potency of parent ALG-001075 likely enable the clinical observation of this effect."

SUSTAINED REDUCTION OF HBV ANTIGEN LEVELS DURING THE 8-WEEK FOLLOW-UP PERIOD IN TREATMENT NAÏVE (TN) OR CURRENTLY-NOT-TREATED (CNT) HBEAG-POSITIVE SUBJECTS WITH CHRONIC HEPATITIS B VIRUS INFECTION AFTER 96-WEEK 300 MG ALG-000184, WITH OR WITHOUT ENTECAVIR (ETV) (AASLD 2025) - P1 | "100 or 300 mg ALG-000184 ± ETV for ≤ 24 weeks or ≤ 96 weeks resulted in dose- and duration-dependent multi-log reductions in HBV antigens in TN/CNT HBeAg+ subjects. Additionally, sustained reductions in HBV antigens were observed during the 8-week post-ALG-000184 follow-up period after longer treatment with higher dose of 300 mg ALG-000184. This may indicate cccDNA depletion, associated with the CAM-E secondary mechanism of action."

DIFFERENTIATION OF HBV CAPSID ASSEMBLY MODULATORS BASED ON STABILIZATION OF CORE PROTEIN OLIGOMERIZATION AND RESIDENCE TIME (AASLD 2025) - "ALG-000184 is a prodrug of ALG-001075, a novel capsid assembly modulator leading to the formation of empty capsids (CAM-E)... We developed a novel jump dilution assay to assess the biochemical potency/residence time of CAM compounds. Our results demonstrate that the stability of Cp oligomerization and target residence time are important parameters for the characterization of next-generation CAMs."

CAPSID ASSEMBLY MODULATOR ALG-001075 PREVENTS CCCDNA FORMATION AND HBV DNA INTEGRATION IN VITRO (AASLD 2025) - "ALG-000184 is a prodrug of ALG-001075, a novel capsid assembly modulator leading to the formation of empty capsids (CAM-E)...This was not the case for nucleos(t)ide analogs entecavir and tenofovir... ALG-001075 demonstrated potent prevention of HBV cccDNA formation and HBV DNA integration, further confirming its best-in-class properties and superiority over commonly used nucleos(t)ide analogs."

These findings support the continued development of ALG-000184 as a potentially improved monotherapy regimen for chronic suppression. A head-to-head comparison of ALG-000184 vs Tenofovir monotherapy has been initiated in the Phase 2 B-SUPREME study."

Viral kinetics and sequence analysis of a phase I monotherapy study in subjects with chronic hepatitis B reveals a high barrier of resistance to the capsid assembly modulator ALG-000184 (EASL 2025) - "No viral breakthrough or non-response, as measured by HBV DNA levels was observed in the 21 CHB participants undergoing ALG-000184 monotherapy for up to 96 weeks. Consistently, none of the major ALG-000184 resistance mutations identified in vitro (T33N, T33P and V124G) were detected in any of the baseline or on-treatment samples, indicating a high barrier to resistance. The lack of viral breakthrough and emerging resistance, combined with the significant reduction in HBV DNA, positions ALG-000184 as a promising candidate for further clinical development as a potential backbone of therapy for chronic viral suppression."
