Production difficulties caused by unforeseen events may delay the availability of material for our clinical trials or commercialization efforts. We have engaged WuXi Biologics, a CDMO, for the development and manufacture of our product candidates for clinical and commercial use.

The costs were primarily related to contract manufacturing costs. 107 • In the first quarter of 2023, we prioritized the clinical development of VYD222 instead of NVD200 and therefore, there was no comparable spend for NVD200 during the year ended December 31, 2023. • The decrease in personnel-related costs of $7.1 million was primarily due to a reduction in headcount, including a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $6.6 million, partially offset by an increase in our bonus compensation in 2023. • The increase in external discovery-related and other costs of $10.3 million was primarily due to an increase in contract manufacturing costs related to our pipeline candidates of $8.6 million and an increase in other external costs of $2.3 million primarily due to services performed by PHP under the PHP Work Order, partially offset by a decrease in nonclinical and clinical trial costs of $0.6 million.
The $21.4 million decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to the following: • The decrease in direct costs related to our pemivibart program resulted from $60.2 million in contract costs for commercial manufacturing, $5.0 million in contract research costs for our Phase 3 CANOPY clinical trial, and $0.2 million in nonclinical expenses, partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in other external expenses; • The increase in direct costs related to our VYD2311 program resulted from the nomination of our VYD2311 product candidate in the first quarter of 2024 and consisted primarily of contract manufacturing costs, nonclinical expenses and contract research costs for our Phase 1 clinical trial; • The decrease in direct costs related to our adintrevimab program of $3.3 million resulted from the nomination of our pemivibart product candidate in the first quarter of 2023; • The decrease in personnel related costs resulted from $6.6 million in headcount-related costs and capitalization of $2.2 million of certain inventory costs which were recorded as research and development costs prior to the EUA of PEMGARDA; and • The decrease in external discovery-related and other costs resulted from $8.2 million in contract manufacturing costs related to our pipeline candidates and $3.7 million in other non-clinical expenses, partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in other external costs and $0.2 million in clinical trial expenses.
Recipients should not be currently infected with or have had a known recent exposure to an individual infected with SARS-CoV-2. PEMGARDA is our first mAb in a planned series of innovative mAb candidates designed to keep pace with SARS-CoV-2 viral evolution.
Recipients should not be currently infected with or have had a known recent exposure to an individual infected with SARS-CoV-2. In January 2024, we nominated VYD2311, a next generation mAb candidate for COVID-19, as a drug candidate, and in September 2024, we announced dosing of the first participants in a Phase 1 clinical trial of VYD2311.
In addition to developing candidates for COVID-19, we expect to apply our INVYMAB platform approach to produce lead molecules for other viral diseases, such as influenza. Globally, COVID-19 has caused millions of deaths and lasting health problems in many survivors and remains a significant global health concern, particularly for immunocompromised individuals.
