A word from CEO Tord Labuda
- A new era for Alzinova

Dear shareholder,

It is with great enthusiasm and humbleness that I have taken on the role as the new CEO of Alzinova AB. Having taken office on 1 October, I now have the exciting task of leading this innovative company into the next phase of our clinical development and growth.

Our unique position in Alzheimer’s research
Alzinova is a pioneer in the development of treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, and I am deeply impressed by the strong scientific foundation laid by my predecessors and our entire dedicated team. Our unique approach focusing on an amyloid-beta oligomer-specific immunotherapy positions us as a pioneer in Alzheimer’s research, and the progress we have made so far, both preclinically and in the first patient studies, is very promising for our further journey.

Insights and potential
During my first six weeks, I have spent a lot of time understanding our ongoing projects and listening to our employees, partners and shareholders. It is clear that we have significant potential to build on, especially considering the results from our phase 1b study with ALZ-101, which targets the neurotoxic amyloid-beta oligomers, as well as with ALZ-201, our antibody therapy against the same toxic oligomers, currently in the preclinical phase.

Key milestones ahead
Our main priority going forward will be to accelerate our clinical development programme and we are looking at some key milestones in the next six months:

• In Q4, we expect to present long-term data (up to week 42) from the extension part (part B) of our phase 1b study, i.e. patients have been in the phase 1b study for at least 84 weeks. Provided that these data are in line with our analysis earlier in the year, from part A1 where we saw good safety and tolerability, a dose-dependent immune response and excellent biomarker data, we will be able to strengthen our position in the ongoing discussions for further funding and potential partnerships.

• Recently, the last patient in the high dose part, A2 of the phase 1b-study, was dosed, where patients received 400ug in 4 doses over 16 weeks. This will be followed by a 4-week follow-up and we expect to report data early in the new year. The focus here is safety, tolerability and immune response, which will give us valuable insight for future phase 2 studies.

• Looking ahead, we are working intensively on the important preparatory steps for a phase 2 study including protocol development, manufacturing of study drugs and selection of a contract research organisation (CRO). This work is crucial to ensure a smooth transition to the next phase of our clinical programme and thereby maximise the chances of success.

Financial strength and outlook
Financially, we have strengthened our position through the successful rights issue earlier this year, giving us the resources to drive our clinical development forward in the near term. However, we recognise that the continued development of ALZ-101 will require significant investment. As we approach phase 2, we are of course carefully evaluating different options - from strategic partnerships that can provide both financial resources and expertise to more traditional capital raising that can enable us to run the phase 2 study on our own - to ensure that we have the resources needed to realise the full potential of our pipeline. Our goal is to make the best informed decisions to position Alzinova for success in the challenging but promising world of Alzheimer’s research.

Our results so far have attracted significant industry interest and we look forward with confidence to the world’s largest pharmaceutical conference, JP Morgan, in January. There, with new clinical data, we will hopefully be in a stronger position to continue our discussions with the major pharmaceutical companies. This conference represents an important opportunity for us to present our results from the phase 1b study with ALZ-101 to potential partners and investors.

ALZ-101: A potential game-changer
Financial strength is crucial for us to fully develop our main asset - the vaccine candidate ALZ-101. With its unique mechanism of specifically targeting the toxic oligomers of amyloid-beta, ALZ-101 has the potential to be a game-changer in Alzheimer’s treatment. Positive results from our ongoing studies could open up entirely new opportunities for the company and millions of patients worldwide.

Lastly, I would like to thank you for the warm welcome I have received from the entire Alzinova family. I look forward to working with our fantastic team to take Alzinova to new heights. We have an exciting journey ahead of us, and I am convinced that with our innovation, commitment and expertise, we will continue to deliver value to our employees, shareholders and not least to our Alzheimer’s patients and their families.

Thank you for your confidence,
Tord Labuda
CEO Alzinova AB
