Absci announced today that it will host a virtual key‑opinion‑leader seminar on December 11, 2025, and that it now expects to initiate the Phase 1/2a trial for its ABS‑201 anti‑PRLR program in early December 2025, ahead of the previously scheduled early 2026 start.
The ABS‑201 program targets androgenetic alopecia, a condition affecting 80 million Americans. The trial will evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of the antibody. Earlier initiation could shorten the development timeline by roughly six months and position Absci to deliver interim efficacy data in the second half of 2026.
The accelerated schedule reflects Absci’s confidence in its integrated drug‑creation platform and its commitment to advancing its pipeline. By moving the trial start forward, Absci may enhance investor perception of its pipeline’s commercial potential and reduce time to potential regulatory approval, thereby improving the company’s long‑term value proposition.
