Welcome to another episode of On the Couch, the podcast series where we chat with brokers, CEOs, and fund managers to give you valuable insights into the investing world.

In this episode, Henry Jennings is joined by Dr Nina Webster, CEO and Managing Director of Dimerix (ASX: DXB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company working on treatments for inflammatory diseases. With a market cap of $270 million, Dimerix is advancing its proprietary Phase 3 candidate DMX-200 to treat Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a rare kidney disease, and is also developing DMX-700 for respiratory disease.

Nina has over 30 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, with leadership roles across research, development, and commercialisation. She was formerly Commercial Director at Acrux (ASX: ACR), an Australian pharmaceutical company that successfully developed and commercialised multiple products globally. She is also Non-Executive Chairperson for SYNthesis BioVentures and a Non-Executive Director at Linear Clinical Research Limited. Dr Webster holds a Ph.D in Pharmaceutics from Cardiff University, a Bachelor’s degree in Pharmacology, a Master’s in Intellectual Property Law from Melbourne University, and an Executive MBA from RMIT.

Talking Points:

• Dimerix is focused on developing and commercialising new treatments for inflammatory diseases with poor outcomes. The leading drug candidate is a treatment for a rare kidney disease known as FSGS - what’s the nature of this disease and its current treatment?
• What’s changed, and how did DXB come about?
• DMX-200 is now in a global Phase 3 clinical trial - an update on the trial and when results are expected.
• The upside from here following DXB’s strong run.
• Are all the eggs in one basket if this trial is not successful? What is Plan B?
• Three successful commercial deals - how they came together.
• CEOs shouldn’t speculate on future licensing deals, but the US market is always the big one. What interest has there been from US pharma companies?
• How does what’s happening in the US impact Dimerix? Elon Musk has been vocal about the FDA, and with Kennedy in charge, is there extra risk of regulatory slowdowns?
• NEU as a playbook - Dr Webster previously worked with NEU’s CEO at Acrux. Is Dimerix a bona fide Neuren replica?
• Cash reserves and burn rate - what’s the current financial position?
• Who are Dimerix’s biggest shareholders?
• If the FSGS trial goes well, what happens next? Licensing?
• What will be the major Dimerix milestones for 2025?

A deep dive into Dimerix, the biotech sector, and what’s ahead for the company.
