Alector reports Q3 EPS (43c), consensus (53c)

Reports Q3 revenue $15.34M, consensus $15.7M. “We continue to make meaningful progress advancing our innovative pipeline of product candidates and remain on track to report data in 2024 from the INVOKE-2 Phase 2 trial of AL002, the most advanced TREM2 candidate in clinical development for early Alzheimer’s disease,” said Arnon Rosenthal, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Alector (ALEC). “We believe that increased TREM2 signaling via AL002 may recruit disease-fighting microglia to broadly counteract the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. INVOKE-2 is designed to provide meaningful insights into AL002’s potential benefits across a combination of clinical and functional endpoints, as well as imaging and fluid biomarkers. We also believe that the broad mechanism of AL002 may have the potential to deliver potent and durable therapeutic benefits, both as a standalone therapy and in combination with anti-amyloid beta antibodies.”
