**Eledon Pharmaceuticals Announces Recent Business Highlights and Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results**

*Data from Phase 2 BESTOW trial demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile, substantially reducing the metabolic, neurologic, and cardiovascular toxicities commonly associated with tacrolimus* 

*Data supports advancement into Phase 3 development as a potential new standard for the prevention of kidney transplant rejection*

*Strengthened balance sheet with $57.5 million financing to advance transplantation programs*

IRVINE, Calif., November 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eledon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Eledon") (Nasdaq: ELDN) today reported its third quarter 2025 operating and financial results and reviewed recent business highlights.

"The results from our Phase 2 BESTOW trial demonstrated tegoprubart's excellent efficacy and safety, importantly avoiding many of the long-term toxicities commonly seen with current standard-of-care immunosuppressive therapies," said David-Alexandre C. Gros, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Eledon. "Further, the proceeds from our recent financing enhance our ability to advance tegoprubart's programs in kidney transplantation, islet cell transplantation, and xenotransplantation, addressing critical unmet needs in transplant medicine."

**Third Quarter 2025 and Business Highlights**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Presented results from the Phase 2 BESTOW trial evaluating tegoprubart for the prevention of organ rejection in patients receiving a kidney transplant at the American Society of Nephrology's Kidney Week 2025 Annual Meeting in Houston, TX. Tegoprubart demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile, substantially reducing the metabolic, neurologic, and cardiovascular toxicities commonly associated with tacrolimus. Kidney function, as measured by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), was approximately 69 mL/min/1.73<sup>2</sup> at 12-months for participants in the tegoprubart treatment arm (n=51).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Based on the Phase 2 BESTOW results, Eledon plans to advance tegoprubart into Phase 3 development following discussions with regulators on study design and data requirements. Insights from the Phase 2 BESTOW data set and the ongoing long-term extension study will be incorporated to optimize the Phase 3 protocol and strengthen the regulatory package.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•On November 13, 2025, Eledon completed an underwritten public offering of common stock and pre-funded warrants, resulting in total gross proceeds of $57.5 million and net proceeds of approximately $53.6 million after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and estimated offering expenses.

**About Eledon Pharmaceuticals and tegoprubart**

Eledon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical stage biotechnology company that is developing immune-modulating therapies for the management and treatment of life-threatening conditions.

The Company is building upon a deep historical knowledge of anti-CD40 Ligand biology to conduct preclinical and clinical studies in kidney allograft transplantation, xenotransplantation, liver allograft transplantation, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
