Item 7.01     Regulation FD Disclosure.
On December 4, 2025, Denali Therapeutics Inc. (“Denali” or the “Company”) hosted its 2025 Investor Day, during which members of the Company’s executive management team provided updates on Denali’s development programs and upcoming milestones. A copy of the presentation made available in connection with the 2025 Investor Day is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The information contained in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

Item 8.01     Other Events

On December 4, 2025, Denali provided the following key updates on programs across its development pipeline at its 2025 Investor Day.

Tividenofusp Alfa (ETV:IDS) — MPS II (Hunter Syndrome)

The Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for tividenofusp alfa remains under review with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (“PDUFA”) target action date of April 5, 2026. A Late Cycle Meeting with the FDA has been completed and labeling discussions are underway. Commercial readiness activities are progressing. Enrollment in Cohort A (neuronopathic) of the Phase 2/3 COMPASS study of tividenofusp alfa is expected to complete in December 2025.

Tividenofusp alfa received Rare Pediatric Disease Designation (“RPDD”) status for the treatment of Hunter syndrome in January 2019. Denali is in ongoing dialogue with the FDA related to the eligibility of tividenofusp alfa to receive a Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (“PRV”) upon approval1. Because Denali submitted a filing of its intent to request a PRV after the initial BLA submission, based on discussions with the FDA, the Company may not be eligible to receive the PRV. Therefore, Denali is not including any potential future proceeds from the sale of a PRV in its financial planning. Denali continues to work with the FDA and the FDA will determine whether to award a PRV upon approval of tividenofusp alfa.

DNL126 (ETV:SGSH) — MPS IIIA (Sanfilippo Syndrome Type A)

The Phase 1/2 study of DNL126 remains on track for completion in 2026, supporting a potential accelerated approval pathway and commercial launch by the end of 2027. Denali plans to present initial Phase 1/2 data at the 2026 WORLD Symposium. Phase 3 planning is ongoing.

TAK-594/DNL593 (PTV:PGRN) — Frontotemporal Dementia (GRN Mutation)

The Phase 1/2 study of TAK-594/DNL593 is ongoing with screening closed in Cohort B. Initial FTD-GRN patient data are expected in 2026.
1 Congress created Section 529 of the Food, Drug, & Cosmetic Act to incentivize drug development for rare diseases in children. Under Section 529, the FDA administers the RPDD and PRV programs.



DNL952 (ETV:GAA) — Pompe Disease

The Investigational New Drug ("IND") application for the Phase 1 study of DNL952 has been placed on clinical hold. The FDA requested a protocol amendment to include a lower starting dose, revised inclusion criteria, certain safety monitoring commitments, and stopping rules. These requests are related to preclinical hypersensitivity reactions observed in GAA mouse models, which are commonly observed across all GAA enzyme replacement therapies in mice. The FDA did not request additional nonclinical studies. Denali has submitted a response to the FDA, and pending FDA feedback, anticipates minimal delays in the initiation of the Phase 1 study. As part of our global development strategy for DNL952, Denali is on track to submit a Clinical Trial Application (“CTA”) in Europe in the first half of 2026.

DNL628 (OTV:MAPT) — Alzheimer’s Disease

A CTA for DNL628 has been submitted, and a Phase 1b study in patients with Alzheimer’s disease is expected to begin in the first half of 2026.

DNL921 (ATV:Abeta) — Alzheimer’s Disease

A regulatory submission for DNL921 is planned for the first half of 2026 to initiate clinical studies.

BIIB122 (LRRK2 Inhibitor, partnered with Biogen)

The Phase 2b LUMA study for BIIB122 in patients with early-stage Parkinson’s disease is expected to read out in 2026. The BEACON study in patients with LRRK2-associated Parkinson's disease continues to enroll.

Eclitasertib (SAR443122, RIPK1 Inhibitor, partnered with Sanofi)

Phase 2 data in ulcerative colitis are expected in 1H 2026. Development is led solely by Sanofi.

22 • A group of over 50 disorders, each associated with deficiency of a different lysosomal enzyme or transport protein • Inherited in an autosomal recessive or X-linked fashion • Very heterogenous What are LSDs? Figure 7-14, Biological Science, 2/e, ©2005 Pearson Prentice Hall, Inc.


 
23 MPS II (Hunter Syndrome)


 
24 • Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) conditions are rare, progressive genetic disorders that can affect nearly every organ in the body1,2 • Hunter syndrome, or mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II), is one of 8 distinct MPS disorders – It is estimated that 1 in every 25,000 infants born will have an MPS disorder4 – Approximately 1 in every 100,000 infants will have Hunter syndrome. This is an X-linked disorder so almost all affected infants are male • MPS diseases are caused by a deficiency of lysosomal enzymes, which are needed to degrade glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) • The specific enzymatic deficient in MPS II is iduronate-2-sulfatase which is coded for by the IDS gene. Enzyme deficiency leads to progressive accumulation of the glycosaminoglycans heparan and dermatan sulfate. Hunter Syndrome (MPS II) is a Type of Mucopolysaccharidosis, a Subset of the Lysosomal Storage Disorders (LSDs)1,2 1. Giugliani R et al. Genet Mol Biol. 2014;37(2):315-329; 2.

25 • GAGs consist of a core protein plus simple carbohydrates to form a type of molecule called proteoglycans • Proteoglycans are expressed throughout the extracellular matrix and cell surface to support cell signaling and proliferation, tissue morphogenesis, and the interaction of growth factors What are Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)? Gal – Galactose; GalNAc – N-acetylgalactosamine; GlcA – Glucuronic acid; GlcNAc – N-acetylglucosamine; IdoA – Iduronic acid; Xyl – Xylose; Mizumoto S et al.

26 • MPS II occurs along a spectrum of severity but there are two major subtypes – the neuronopathic form (70% of cases) characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline and the non-neuronopathic or attenuated form (30%) characterized by normal or near-normal cognitive development without progressive decline • Within the neuronopathic subtype there is considerable variability in the pattern of decline • There are a small number of “intermediate” patients with stable mild to moderate cognitive impairment- 5-10% of total patients – may be classified in either neuronopathic group or attenuated group depending on definitions used Variability of MPS II

28 • Progressive airway narrowing • Cardiac valve thickening and dysfunction, cardiomyopathy • Carpal tunnel syndrome • Retinal degeneration with progressive visual impairment • In neuronopathic patients, developmental slowing followed by progressive neurodegeneration • Death in teens for most neuropathic patients; those with attenuated disease may live into their 40’s, 50’s or beyond Later Signs/Symptoms of MPS II 28


 
29 Newborn Screening 29 • MPS II was added to RUSP in 2017; approximately 25% of US newborns are now screened but this is expected to increase rapidly


 
30 • Most affected individuals receive enzyme replacement therapy with Elaprase® from time of diagnosis • Surveillance for complications with symptomatic treatment as needed • Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is used in some cases but relatively infrequently in North America. It provides somatic benefit and may provide some CNS benefit if done within first year of life but data are limited. Current Treatment of MPS II 30


 
31 • Does not cross the blood brain barrier in significant amounts so does not alter the course of neurodegeneration leading to death • Cardiac valve and airway issues continue to progress and are the major cause of death in attenuated patients • Does not prevent retinal disease • Does not prevent progressive hearing loss so most patients require hearing aids Limitations of Current ERT 31


 
32 • A treatment is needed to address the progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive decline seen in the neuronopathic form of the disease • Better treatment for the hard to reach peripheral tissues in which disease progression continues to occur despite current ERT Unmet Need in MPS II 32


 
33 MPS IIIA (Sanfilippo A Syndrome) 33


 
34 • Autosomal recessive disorder resulting from deficiency of the enzyme N-sulfoglucosamine sulfohydrolase (SGSH), also referred to as sulfamidase or heparan sulfate sulfatase. This leads to progressive accumulation of heparan sulfate. • Most common of the 4 types of MPS III, accounting for about 70% of cases • Overall incidence estimated at 1 in 125,000 births MPS IIIA – Sanfilippo Syndrome, Type A 34


 
35 • Primarily ( but not exclusively) a neurologic disorder – Infants are normal at birth but exhibit developmental slowing at about 2 years of age with speech delay – Hyperactive/aggressive behavior at about age 3 – Developmental regression becomes apparent typically by 4-5 – Often initially misdiagnosed as ADHD, non-specific developmental delay or autism • Average age at clinical diagnosis 4-5 years; average age of death 10-15 years. Approximately 20 % of patients have a more attenuated course with later diagnosis and longer survival. MPS IIIA – Clinical Findings 35


 
36 • Hepatosplenomegaly • Recurrent otitis media and other respiratory infections • Chronic or recurrent diarrhea • Coarse facial features- less prominent than in other MPS disorders • Prominent GI dysmotility late in the disease • Cardiac valve disease • Skeletal findings such as hip dysplasia MPS IIIA – Additional Findings 36


 
37 • Primarily symptomatic • No approved disease-modifying therapy; HSCT does not alter the course of the disease • Many patients currently receive anakinra (Kineret®) approved for a different disorder but with some data showing benefit in MPS III • Many therapeutic trials including trials of IV or intrathecal ERT and gene therapy have failed in past. The frustration in the patient community is very high. • No newborn screening underway at present but it is feasible MPS IIIA – Current Treatment 37


 
38 • There is a pressing need for any disease-modifying therapy to health or slow down the relentless progression of the disease and prolong life • The focus is on the brain but if treatment of the brain is successful, the need for effective treatment of peripheral tissues is likely to become more pressing MPS IIIA – Unmet Need 38

41 • It is a progressive, genetically determined disorder inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion • Biallelic mutations in the GAA gene lead to deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme alpha-glucosidase and progressive accumulation of glycogen in lysosomes of cells • Other names for Pompe disease used in past: acid maltase deficiency, glycogen storage disease type II What is Pompe Disease Leslie N, Bailey L.

45 Newborn Screening for Pompe Disease 45 • Added to the RUSP in 2015 • Now on the NBS panel in all 50 states


 
46 • 3 approved forms of ERT available in US – Lumizyme – approved for both IOPD and LOPD – Nexviazyme – approved for LOPD in children and adults – Pombiliti – given with Opfolda (miglustat) approved for adults not improving on their current ERT • Patients with IOPD are treated urgently at time of diagnosis. Patients with LOPD diagnosed clinically are offered treatment at diagnosis; those diagnosed by NBS are monitored and treated once symptoms appear Current Treatment of Pompe Disease 46


 
47 • If immunologic issues are addressed with appropriate immune modulation, it is very effective for treatment of cardiomyopathy in IOPD and is live-saving • It is much less effective for skeletal muscle disease. Most patients exhibit modest improvement in muscle strength, mobility and respiratory function after onset of treatment followed by variable period of stability but ultimate disease progression. • Long term data not available for the two newer ERT’s but the improvement seen is incremental when patients are switched. Considerable unmet need still exists How Well Does Current Treatment Work 47


 
48 • Sparse M6P receptors compared with other tissues • Inadequate dosing • Late diagnosis in some patients with some muscle fibers destroyed and replaced with fat • Lysosomal rupture leads to accumulation of cytoplasmic glycogen which is not cleared by ERT targeted to the lysosome Why is Treatment Less Effective for Skeletal Muscle? 48


 
49 • We likely need treatment of the brain in IOPD although the natural history of the brain disease has not yet been fully charted • Better treatment of the skeletal muscle disease is needed in both IOPD and LOPD Unmet Need in Pompe Disease 49

66 Living it. Denali Hunter Syndrome Patient Advocacy Survey Distributed 12/10/24-1/20/25; BBB – Blood-brain barrier; HCPs – Healthcare professionals Waiting for it. Watching it. – Message from current clinical study family to Denali ​ We are simply amazed at his overall health and what he is capable of that we never dreamed possible when we received his diagnosis. ​ He has a rich vocabulary and imagination, loves listening to books, and he literally never stops talking. We are able to engage in so many family activities we enjoy together that we weren't sure we would ever be able to do as a whole family. With that said, life is not simple or easy by any means. It is really incredible to reflect on how far he has come, while also making us wish that we could have begun treatment so much earlier … It makes us wonder (and hope) for what could be for those children who will … someday be able to initiate brain-targeted therapy at the earliest possible moment. We are literally changing the future, truly creating a future that hasn't existed, for every family that comes ahead. Recent community survey in partnership with Project Alive. Change is not easy. As new treatments emerge, we know families are watching closely — seeking reassurance through others’ experiences and outcomes. Our goal is to make these early experiences with tivi both positive and inspiring, building confidence for families considering a future switch. From lived experiences to hopeful anticipation — the Hunter community’s voices guide our next chapter. “60% of respondents emphasized the need for therapies that cross the BBB — underscoring the urgency for options that address cognition.” ✓ Engagement with HCPs ✓ Payer and access strategy ✓ Working with advocacy to shape our plans ✓ Dedicated Patient Services Team


 
67 Hunter Syndrome Patients Fall on a Disease Spectrum, with CNS and Peripheral Manifestations in All Tividenofusp alfa has the potential to address both CNS and peripheral manifestations of disease Peripheral Disease Manifestations Range from Mild to Significant Vary in severity; same symptoms may occur as in severe patients, although over longer time CNS Symptoms Appear and Progress Over Time e.g., behavioral issues, inattentiveness, retinal degeneration Significant Peripheral Disease e.g., facial dysmorphism, enlarged spleen/liver, joint stiffness, and eventually pulmonary and cardiac complications Severe Phenotype Attenuated Phenotype Birth Age 10 Age 20 Age 30+ Significant CNS Disease e.g., reduced cognitive function, communication skills, motor skills (some require wheelchair) Significantly Shorter Lifespan (10-20 years) Lifespan into Early Adulthood CNS – Central nervous system
