WVE-003 leads to allele-selective mHTT reduction, correlating with slowing of caudate atrophy Allele-selective mHTT Slowing of Caudate Silencing with wtHTT Functional Benefit Atrophy Preservation • mHTT reduction of up to • WVE-003 trended towards • Caudate atrophy is an 46% vs. placebo less caudate atrophy vs. imaging biomarker expected placebo (4.68% vs. 5.10%, to predict clinical • wtHTT preserved/increased not significant) outcomes, including throughout study clinically meaningful worsening of Total Motor Score (TMS) Greater allele-selective mHTT reduction correlated with the slowing of caudate atrophy at 24 weeks (R = -0.50, p=0.047) 44 Liu et al., 2023 Brain Comm


Analysis of natural history demonstrates that absolute reduction of 1% in rate of caudate atrophy is associated with delay of onset of disability by ≥7.5-years WVE-003 next steps p<0.001 HR = 0.31 • Preparation ongoing for a global, potentially registrational Phase 2/3 study in adults with SNP3 and HD • Using caudate atrophy as a Rate of Caudate Atrophy: primary endpoint Fast: -3.04%/year Slow: -2.04%/year Expect to submit IND application for potentially registrational Phase 2/3 study in 2H 2025 45 Wave internal analysis; TRACK-HD and PREDICT-HD are longitudinal HD natural history studies that include MRI brain imaging, clinical outcome assessments.
