On September 21, 2023, NewAmsterdam Pharma Company N.V. (the Company) issued a press release reporting initial data from its Phase 2a clinical trial evaluating obicetrapib in patients with early Alzheimers disease (AD) and at least one copy of the apolipoprotein E4 mutation (ApoE4).
The open-label and single-arm trial was designed to assess the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of obicetrapib 10 mg in early AD patients carrying at least one copy of ApoE4. A total of 13 patients were given 10 mg obicetrapib and followed for 24 weeks. In the trial, the Company observed reductions in the levels of 24- and 27-hydrocholestrol of 11% and 12%, respectively, in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In addition, an increase of 8% in the Aß42/40 ratio in patients plasma was observed and pTau181 levels were observed to be stable. Overall, obicetrapib was observed to be well-tolerated. No serious adverse events (AEs) were reported, nor were any AEs considered to be related to study drug.
Increases in 24- and 27-hydroxycholesterol over time have been observed to lead to a rise in cognitive and related functional impairment. As such, the Company believes reductions of these oxysterols in the CSF may indicate improved cholesterol metabolism in the brain and may lead to improved cognitive function. In addition, the Phase 2a trial assessed the Aß42/40 ratio and plasma pTau181, also believed to be biomarkers of AD, with lower levels of Aß42/40 and increased levels of pTau181 having been associated with a greater risk of AD. This trial builds on observations from the Companys preclinical studies and third-party genetic studies that inhibiting cholesteryl ester transfer protein may protect against ApoE4-associated AD risk by preventing the accumulation of amyloid plaque in the brain through improved cholesterol metabolism and, as a result, potentially slow disease progression.
The Company anticipates sharing the full results of this Phase 2a clinical trial in a forthcoming publication or in a presentation at an upcoming medical meeting and plans to seek feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, to inform the potential further development of obicetrapib for the treatment of AD.
A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto. This Report on Form 6-K (excluding Exhibit 99.1) shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into the Companys registration statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-271019).

These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as and must not be relied on as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction, or a definitive statement of fact or probability.

These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political, and legal conditions; risks related to the approval of the Companys product candidate and the timing of expected regulatory and business milestones, including potential commercialization; whether topline, initial or preliminary results from a particular clinical trial will be predictive of the final results of that trial and whether results of early clinical trials will be indicative of the results of later clinical trials; ability to negotiate definitive contractual arrangements with potential customers; the impact of competitive product candidates; ability to obtain sufficient supply of materials; global economic and political conditions, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict; the effects of competition on the Companys future business; and those factors described in the Companys public filings with the Securities Exchange Commission. Additional risks related to the Companys business include, but are not limited to: uncertainty regarding outcomes of the Companys ongoing clinical trials, particularly as they relate to regulatory

In addition, forward-looking statements reflect the Companys expectations, plans, or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this document and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein. The Company anticipates that subsequent events and developments may cause the Companys assessments to change.
