Aligos Therapeutics Presents Positive Data at the EASL Congress 2024

Aligos Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGS, "Aligos"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel therapeutics to address unmet medical needs in liver and viral diseases, today announced positive data from six poster presentations at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress 2024, being held June 5-8 in Milan, Italy.

The clinical poster presentations highlight the continued potent antiviral activity of ALG-000184 for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative subjects.

Data from ≤72 weeks following an oral daily dose of 300 mg ALG-000184 monotherapy demonstrated sustained HBV DNA suppression (

Reported for the first time were antiviral and safety data in HBeAg-negative CHB subjects who received a daily single dose of 300 mg ALG-000184 monotherapy for ≤60 weeks. In all 11 subjects (100%), complete suppression of HBV DNA (

"We designed ALG-000184 as a highly potent agent that could deliver broad antiviral efficacy in hepatitis B patients, regardless of their HBeAg status," stated Lawrence Blatt, PhD, MBA, Chairman, President & CEO of Aligos Therapeutics. "These new data in HBeAg-negative CHB patients complement the broad antiviral activity we have already reported in HBeAg-positive CHB patients, with data now up to 72 weeks showing 90% of subjects achieved HBV DNA suppression. The extent of HBV DNA suppression observed to date in both CHB patient populations appear to exceed those reported by the current standard of care nucleos(t)ides, leading us to believe this is a best/first-in-class molecule."

Additionally, other preclinical poster presentations demonstrate the potential of next generation siRNAs for treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and CHB as well as a novel CAM-A molecule for the treatment of CHB.

Details of the presentations are as follows:
