Acumen Pharmaceuticals reported Q2 2025 earnings, with a cash balance of $166.2 million, expected to last into early 2027. R&D expenses increased to $37.1 million, mainly due to manufacturing and clinical trial costs. The company announced a strategic collaboration with JCR Pharmaceuticals to develop an Enhanced Brain Delivery therapy and is advancing its ALTITUDE-AD Phase 2 study with topline results expected in late 2026.
Acumen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABOS) reported its second-quarter 2025 financial results and business highlights, indicating continued momentum in its Alzheimer's disease research. The company reported a cash balance of $166.2 million as of June 30, 2025, which is expected to support current clinical and operational activities into early 2027 [1].Research and Development (R&D) expenses for the quarter totaled $37.1 million, an increase of $17.6 million compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to higher manufacturing and materials costs, as well as increased costs associated with the ALTITUDE-AD clinical trial [1].
General and Administrative (G&A) expenses were $4.6 million for the quarter, down from $4.8 million in the same period last year, primarily due to immaterial decreases in insurance and recruiting costs [1].
The company reported a loss from operations of $41.8 million for the quarter, compared to $24.4 million in the same period last year. This increase was primarily due to the higher R&D expenses [1].
Acumen Pharmaceuticals also announced a strategic collaboration with JCR Pharmaceuticals to develop an Enhanced Brain Delivery (EBD™) therapy for Alzheimer's disease. The collaboration leverages JCR's blood-brain barrier-penetrating technology and Acumen's AβO-targeting antibodies [1].
The company is advancing its ALTITUDE-AD Phase 2 study, which is evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of sabirnetug (ACU193) for the treatment of early Alzheimer's disease. Topline results from this study are expected in late 2026 [1].
