Aclaris Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACRS), a physician-led biopharmaceutical company focused on immuno-inflammatory diseases, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2020 and provided research and development (R&D) and business highlights.

“In the first quarter, we borrowed $11 million from Silicon Valley Bank enabling us to extend our cash runway, and started enrolling subjects with moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis in our Phase 2a trial of ATI-450. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and as a precautionary measure, we temporarily paused subject enrollment in this trial. At this time, we have decided to resume enrollment at one clinical trial site. We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and engage additional clinical trial sites, as appropriate, based on our assessment of the impact on our trial. I’m proud of our team’s focus, dedication and resilience while navigating through the unique challenges that the COVID-19 pandemic has created,” said Dr. Neal Walker, President and CEO of Aclaris.
