On September 17, 2024, AC Immune SA issued a press release announcing that it will receive the second Re𝜏ain-related milestone payment (CHF 24.6 million) under its agreement with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Janssen), a Johnson & Johnson company.

The milestone payment has been triggered by the rapid rate of prescreening in the potentially registrational Phase 2b Re𝜏ain trial investigating active-immunotherapy candidate ACI-35.030 (now called “JNJ-2056”) to treat preclinical (pre-symptomatic) Alzheimer’s disease (AD). With last December’s milestone payment, this brings the total milestone payments received for ACI-35.030 related to this trial to CHF 40 million.

This Report on Form 6-K (other than Exhibit 99.1 hereto) shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the registration statements on Form F-3 (File Nos. 333-227016, 333-249655, 333-255576 and 333-277940) and Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-213865, 333-216539 and 333-233019) of AC Immune SA and to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is filed, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.
