– Alignment reached on key elements of ATH434 Phase 3 development program –
MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA AND SAN FRANCISCO, USA – 30 March 2026: Alterity Therapeutics
(ASX: ATH, NASDAQ: ATHE) (“Alterity” or “the Company”), a biotechnology company dedicated
to developing disease modifying treatments for neurodegenerative diseases, today announced it
has received positive regulatory feedback following a Type C Meeting with the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) regarding its planned Phase 3 development program for ATH434 in
Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).
The Type C Meeting is part of a multidisciplinary strategy to seek alignment with the FDA on
readiness to initiate a Phase 3 pivotal trial in MSA. Alterity received written feedback supporting
its plans related to the clinical pharmacology and non-clinical development elements of the
program.
“This meeting confirms alignment with the FDA in two key disciplines and represents an
important step toward initiation of the Phase 3 program,” said David Stamler, M.D., Chief
Executive Officer of Alterity. “In addition, we will also be seeking agreement with the FDA on
Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) and the Phase 3 trial design. Today’s favorable
outcome sets the stage for our future discussions, culminating in an End-of-Phase 2 meeting that
remains on track for mid-year 2026.”
