Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On January 10, 2025, ProMIS Neurosciences Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing the initiation of its Phase 1b clinical trial (PRECISE-AD) evaluating its lead therapeutic candidate, PMN310, in Alzheimer’s disease (“AD”). A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The information in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On January 10, 2025, the Company issued the Press Release announcing the initiation of its Phase 1b clinical trial (PRECISE-AD) evaluating its lead therapeutic candidate, PMN310, in AD. The ongoing Phase 1b PRECISE-AD trial will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of PMN310 over 12 months of treatment in 100 patients with mild cognitive impairment due to AD (Stage 3 AD) or early AD (Stage 4 AD). The study will also evaluate key biomarkers and clinical measures of efficacy to gather data on PMN310’s therapeutic potential. Results from the recently completed Phase 1a study in healthy volunteers demonstrated a generally favorable safety and tolerability profile, with drug concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid supporting its potential for robust target engagement in patients with AD. The Company anticipates reporting certain interim data in the first half of 2026.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain information in this Current Report on Form 8-K constitutes forward-looking statements and forward-looking information (collectively, “forward-looking information”) within the meaning of applicable securities laws. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “excited to”, “targets”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “an opportunity exists”, “is positioned”, “estimates”, “intends”, “assumes”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate” or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Specifically, this Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking information relating to the Company’s plans and expectations for the Phase 1b study of PMN310. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management's current expectations, estimates and projections regarding the future of our business, future plans, strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including, but not limited to, the risk that clinical data from healthy volunteers may not be indicative of future results in patients, the Company’s ability to fund its operations and continue as a going concern, its accumulated deficit and the expectation for continued losses and future financial results. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking information include, among others, the factors discussed throughout the “Risk Factors” section of the Company's most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in its subsequent filings filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Except as required by applicable securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking information, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
