Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 9, 2025, Vir Biotechnology, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release announcing 24-week post-end of treatment data from Part B of its ongoing MARCH Phase 2 clinical study evaluating tobevibart, an investigational broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibody targeting the hepatitis B surface antigen, and elebsiran, an investigational hepatitis B virus-targeting small interfering ribonucleic acid, with or without pegylated interferon alpha, for the treatment of participants living with chronic hepatitis B.
The Company has not secured a development partner for the chronic hepatitis B program to date, and will not allocate additional resources beyond completing the ongoing Phase 2 study while minimizing cost. As stated in the press release, the Company will streamline the final stages of the MARCH Phase 2 study. This decision aligns with the Company's previously announced prioritization of its ECLIPSE Phase 3 registrational program for chronic hepatitis delta and its dual-masked T-cell engager oncology programs.
The detailed data were presented today at the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) Congress 2025 in Amsterdam (the Netherlands).
A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
