Alterity Therapeutics Receives a A$3.9 Million Research & Development Tax Incentive Refund

MELBOURNE, Australia and SAN FRANCISCO, March 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alterity Therapeutics Limited (ASX: ATH, NASDAQ: ATHE) (“Alterity” or “the Company”), a biotechnology company dedicated to developing disease modifying treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, today announced that it has received a A$3.9 million cash refund from the Australian Taxation Office under the Australian Government’s Research and Development Tax Incentive (R&DTI) Scheme.

The cash refund relates to the cost of eligible research and development activities conducted during the financial year ended 30 June 2023, and represents the amount disclosed in the company’s audited financial statements. These funds will be used to further Alterity’s Phase 2 clinical trials in MSA, ATH434-201 and ATH434-202, along with planning for a potential Phase 3 clinical trial in MSA, continuing discovery and research efforts in neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s Disease, and general working capital.

About ATH434
Alterity’s lead candidate, ATH434, is an oral agent designed to inhibit the aggregation of pathological proteins implicated in neurodegeneration. ATH434 has been shown preclinically to reduce α-synuclein pathology and preserve neuronal function by restoring normal iron balance in the brain. As an iron chaperone, it has excellent potential to treat Parkinson’s disease as well as various Parkinsonian disorders such as Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). ATH434 is currently being studied in two clinical trials: Study ATH434-201 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 clinical trial in patients with early-stage MSA and Study ATH434-202 is an open-label Phase 2 Biomarker trial in patients with more advanced MSA. ATH434 has been granted Orphan drug designation for the treatment of MSA by the U.S. FDA and the European Commission.
