Synvista Therapeutics Announces Published Data Demonstrating Elevation of Carboxymethyl-Lysine (CML) Is Associated with Decline in Renal Function and Arterial Stiffness in Older Adults
Date:12/16/2008

Synvista Therapeutics Technology Provided CML Biomarker Data for Studies

MONTVALE, N.J., Dec. 16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Synvista Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE Alternext US: SYI) today announced two publications demonstrating findings from studies that indicated that the presence of the advanced glycation end product (A.G.E.) called carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) in older adults is associated with a decline in renal function and arterial stiffness in older adults. Kits developed through a license to Synvista's technology were used in these studies. Synvista is validating this clinical diagnostic assay as it prepares to submit a CML kit for 510(k) clearance in the second half of 2009.

"These studies represent an important next step in our understanding of the role of CML in an elderly population, and they provide physicians more information that may be useful in the prevention of cardiovascular and renal disease, particularly in older adults," said Richard D. Semba, M.D., M.P.H, W. Richard Green Professor of Ophthalmology, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and lead author of both studies. "As we have learned, the elevation of CML is preventable in many cases, as it can be mitigated by changes in diet. Therefore, to bring a clearer understanding of this A.G.E. to the forefront may help doctors better explain to their patients how to help prevent cardiovascular and renal complications."

In one study, published in a recent edition of American Journal of Hypertension, investigators measured 493 adult subjects participating in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging for their aortic pulse wave velocity (an index of aortic stiffness) and CML (using Synvista's proprietary technology). Results demonstrated that elevated levels of CML in these subjects corresponded to increased arterial stiffness, a known predictor of cardiovascular disease.
