Additionally, X4 Pharmaceuticals has closed an upsized $85 million private placement, exceeding the initially announced $60 million offering. The financing includes 11,040,776 shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 48,852,772 shares. The offering was led by Coastlands Capital with participation from notable investors including Empery Asset Management, Bain Capital Life Sciences, and NEA. The proceeds will support the continued development of mavorixafor for potential approval in chronic neutropenia and its commercialization in WHIM syndrome .
In a recent development, X4 Pharmaceuticals has announced significant inducement grants to three new executive officers under its 2019 Inducement Plan. The grants include stock options for 12.7 million shares issued on August 12, 2025, and additional 1.4 million shares on August 14, 2025. The initial grants were distributed among Dr. Adam Craig, John Volpone (4.25 million shares each), and David Kirske (2.83 million shares) at $1.42 per share. Additional grants were issued at $3.14 per share following X4's $85 million private placement. The options feature varying vesting schedules over 18-36 months, subject to performance conditions and continued employment .
X4 Pharmaceuticals has also reported positive Phase 2 trial data for mavorixafor in treating chronic neutropenia at the 30th EHA Congress. The six-month study involving 23 participants demonstrated that oral, once-daily mavorixafor effectively increased absolute neutrophil count (ANC) both as monotherapy and in combination with G-CSF. Key findings showed that patients with severe chronic neutropenia achieved nearly 3-fold increases in mean ANC levels, and 89% of participants were able to reduce or discontinue injectable G-CSF while maintaining normal ANC levels. The drug was well-tolerated with no drug-related serious adverse events .
In another significant milestone, X4 Pharmaceuticals has been granted Fast Track designation by the FDA for mavorixafor to treat chronic neutropenia. The drug, an oral CXCR4 antagonist, is currently in a global Phase 3 clinical trial (4WARD). The company expects full trial enrollment in Q3/Q4 2025 with top-line data anticipated in late 2026. Currently, the only FDA-approved treatment for chronic neutropenia is injectable G-CSF, which has significant side effects including bone pain, splenomegaly, and increased leukemia risk. X4 believes oral mavorixafor could offer better disease control with reduced treatment burden for chronic neutropenia patients .
