CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 1, 2022 — Seres Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: MCRB), a leading microbiome therapeutics company, today reported fourth quarter and full year 2021 financial results and provided business updates.

“The progress made throughout 2021 has set the stage for an exciting year ahead for Seres, highlighted by the anticipated BLA filing for SER-109 with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for recurrent C. difficile infection (rCDI) in mid-2022 which, if approved, we expect to be the first ever microbiome therapeutic” said Eric Shaff, Chief Executive Officer at Seres. “In collaboration with Nestlé Health Science, we are executing on our plans for a successful SER-109 product launch. Together, we are committed to bringing this potentially transformative therapeutic option to patients suffering with rCDI.”

“As highlighted during our recent investor event, we are also advancing our earlier stage efforts in Infection Protection, including the recently initiated SER-155 Phase 1b study to evaluate safety and efficacy in individuals undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We believe that our microbiome approach has the potential to result in transformative new medicines for Infection Protection, a therapeutic category in great need of innovation,” continued Mr. Shaff.

Program and Corporate Updates

SER-109 Phase 3 ECOSPOR III study in recurrent C. difficile infection: SER-109, an investigational oral, live microbiome therapeutic, achieved its primary endpoint of superiority to placebo in reducing CDI recurrence in a Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with rCDI. The Company continues to prepare for a BLA filing with the FDA.

Seres has achieved target enrollment in its open-label study of SER-109 in patients with rCDI (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03183141), which also admits patients with a single recurrence of rCDI, to expand the SER-109 safety database. Based on FDA commentary, Seres believes the ECOSPOR III efficacy results should support a BLA filing as a single pivotal study. Seres intends to finalize a BLA submission, including data from the open-label study, in mid-2022.

While executing multiple activities necessary to support the BLA submission, Seres is also preparing for a successful product launch with Aimmune, the division within Nestlé Health Science leading commercialization efforts. The Company believes that a substantial commercial opportunity exists for SER-109. The cost of a patient with recurrence of CDI has been estimated to result in approximately $34,000 in annual direct healthcare expenses; this does not include the substantial indirect costs associated with this disease. There are approximately 170,000 cases of rCDI annually in the U.S. and CDI results in over 20,000 deaths.

In January 2022, the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) published data from the SER-109 Phase 3 ECOSPOR III study evaluating SER-109 for the treatment of rCDI. The publication highlights key results including that SER-109 was superior to placebo in reducing CDI recurrence, with 88% of SER-109 patients achieving a sustained clinical response compared to 60% on placebo. SER-109 was well tolerated, with a side effect profile comparable to placebo and no serious drug-related adverse events observed.

In November 2021, the Company initiated a SER-109 expanded access program at various sites across the U.S. The program is designed to enable eligible adults with rCDI to obtain access to SER-109 prior to a potential FDA product approval.

In October 2021, Seres announced the presentation of an exploratory analysis of its SER-109 Phase 3 ECOSPOR III study at the American College of Gastroenterology 2021 Annual Meeting. Data demonstrate that SER-109 reduced the risk of rCDI, as compared to subjects administered placebo, in individuals with risk factors for recurrence, including those taking acid-reducing medications such as proton pump inhibitors and H2 blockers.

In November 2021, Seres announced a collaboration with Bacthera, a specialized contract development and manufacturing organization to manufacture SER-109, Seres’ lead product candidate for rCDI. The collaboration is designed to expand upon existing production capacity to meet demand growth beyond the initial phase of an anticipated product launch.

SER-155 Phase 1b clinical study activities: In December 2021, Seres announced the enrollment of the first patient in the Company’s Phase 1b clinical study of SER-155 designed to evaluate safety, microbiome alterations, and the impact on infections and/or graft versus host disease (GvHD) associated with SER-155 in adult subjects who are undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The study is currently being conducted with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and the University of Chicago.

SER-155 is an investigational oral, rationally designed, cultivated microbiome therapeutic designed to reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal infections, bloodstream infections, and graft versus host disease (GvHD) in patients receiving allo-HSCT. SER-155 is a consortium of bacterial species selected using Seres’ reverse translation discovery and development platforms. The design incorporates microbiome biomarker data from human clinical data and nonclinical human cell-based assays and in vivo disease models. The SER-155 composition aims to decrease infection and translocation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract and modulate host immune responses to decrease GvHD. In addition to SER-109, SER-155 represents Seres’ second active development program in its Infection Protection franchise.

Infection Protection Investor Event: In January 2022, Seres held a webcast event that highlighted development of microbiome therapeutics as a novel approach for Infection Protection in medically compromised individuals. Building upon SER-109, and in addition to SER-155, Seres is also evaluating additional preclinical stage programs in indications such as cancer neutropenia, solid organ transplant, and antimicrobial resistant infections more broadly.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) development efforts: In July 2021, Seres announced topline results from the Phase 2b ECO-RESET study evaluating SER-287, a donor-derived investigational microbiome therapeutic candidate, in patients with mild-to-moderate UC. The study did not meet its primary endpoint of improving clinical remission rates compared to placebo. Both dosing regimens of SER-287 were generally well tolerated. In December 2021, Seres announced preliminary microbiome drug pharmacology analyses from the study. Engraftment of SER-287 bacteria was statistically significant in patients receiving SER-287 versus placebo (p ≤ 0.001 at all timepoints), however, unlike the Phase 1b study, anticipated changes in disease-relevant metabolites post-administration with SER-287 in the Phase 2b study were not observed. As previously reported, SER-287 Phase 2b clinical and microbiome data suggest that there may be an opportunity to utilize biomarker-based patient selection in future UC development efforts.

Seres has completed preliminary data analysis data from the first cohort of the SER-301 Phase 1b study in subjects with mild-to-moderate UC, which included 15 subjects. Evaluation of the first cohort data by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board indicated that it would be safe to proceed to the placebo-controlled second cohort. While clinical efficacy was not a defined endpoint in the first cohort, evaluation of outcome data indicated that no subjects achieved clinical remission as defined by the FDA using the Three-Component Modified Mayo Score after 10 weeks of treatment, though there were improvements in one or more individual components, (endoscopic, stool frequency and rectal bleeding sub scores) in some patients.

SER-301 led to modulation of the metabolic landscape in the gastrointestinal tract, including in short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids, tryptophan-derived metabolites, bile acids, and other microbe-associated metabolites, as well as host metabolites associated with a non-disease state. SER-301 strains were observed to engraft in subjects across the trial period. The degree of metabolic changes observed following SER-301 administration appeared to be dependent on the baseline metabolic profile of the study subjects, providing support for the potential for microbiome therapeutics to be developed in biomarker-identified UC patient subpopulations.

The SER-287 and SER-301 clinical and drug pharmacology data sets obtained to date provide a robust set of insights into the role of the microbiome in UC, and Seres continues to conduct analyses of data from our SER-287 and SER-301 programs to inform next steps for further development.

Appointment of Executive Vice President, Chief People Officer: In February 2022, Seres announced that Paula Cloghessy joined Seres, bringing more than 20 years of human resources expertise with broad business experience. She most recently served as Chief People Officer at Translate Bio, Inc., where she led the talent architecture and people strategy. She previously served as vice president of human resources at Joule Unlimited Technologies, Inc. She has also held human resources positions at Interleukin Genetics, Inc. and NUCRYST Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
