REGiMMUNE presents enhanced efficacy data in preclinical transplantation models

by the combination treatment. In addition, the combination of RGI-2001 with low-dose Sirolimus significantly enhanced Treg induction.

The results indicate the potential of RGI-2001 to be a key component of a novel tolerance induction regimen, avoiding the use of calcineurin inhibitors that are not only associated with high toxicity but suppress Treg activity. The finding suggests the possibility to develop a pharmacological approach to induce long-term transplant tolerance by promoting the body's intrinsic tolerogenic pathways using RGI-2001.

RGI-2001 is in late preclinical development and REGiMMUNE plans to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) for the prevention of acute GvHD associated with bone marrow transplantation later this year.

The poster presentation is scheduled during the session "Tolerance I: Regulatory Cells" today in Exhibit Hall C, Hynes Convention Center. It is available for viewing from 8:00 am to 6:30 pm; and the authors, Drs. Omar Duramad and Reiko Namikawa, will be present from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm for discussion and questions.
