Proteostasis Therapeutics commences 7 mln common stock offering 

Proteostasis Therapeutics announced positive study results across all three of the company's CF pipeline programs;  
  • Results of PTI-428 Meet Efficacy Endpoint in 28-day Study in CF Patients on Background Orkambi - Proteostasis announced that it has completed its Phase 2 study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 50 mg once-a-day of PTI-428 over a 28-day treatment of CF patients on background Orkambi (lumacaftor/ivacaftor). The addition of PTI-428 to Orkambi demonstrated mean absolute improvements in ppFEV1 of 5.2 percentage points from baseline compared to placebo 
  • The two registrational phase 3 studies of Orkambi, TRAFFIC and TRANSPORT, showed that magnitude of response to Orkambi varied according to patient lung function at screening, suggesting that the overall efficacy was mainly driven by the subgroup with baseline ppFEV1 below 70% (+3.3 percentage points) while the changes in the group with FEV1 =70% were not statistically significant.
  • Preliminary Ad Hoc Analysis of PTI-801 in Ongoing 14-day Study in CF Patients on Background Orkambi - The Company has also shared initial data from the first five subjects (four PTI-801 treated and one placebo) of the first dose level tested in the 14-day dosing study of PTI-801 in CF patients on background Orkambi therapy.
