SELECTIMMUNE PHARMA IN BRIEF

SelectImmune Pharma is an innovative biotech company that develops novel immunotherapies against infection.
  • Excessive innate immune responses to infection cause symptoms and pathology in acute pyelone phritis and acute cystitis. Immunomodulation is therefore a realistic option for treating these condi tions as alternatives or complements to antibiotics.

  • Several of the company's drug candidates have shown protective effects against bacterial infection in animal models, including acute cystitis, severe kidney infection and urosepsis.

  • One drug candidate, Interleukin-1 receptor antag onist (IL1-RA) has successfully been used in the clinic to treat bladder pain syndrome and is currently being investigated in controlled Phase II trials.

  • Furthermore, IL1-RA treatment is being investigated in a Phase II trial in patients with recurrent cystitis.

  • SelectImmune Pharma is a research based company with an agreement with LU.

  • The discoveries are protected by four patent fami lies. Patents have been approved in the US, Europe and Australia. Group I includes known immunomod ulatory substances and pain inhibitors. Group II includes molecules from ''good'' bacteria that rebal ance the immune system and Group III small RNA inhibitors that target excessive inflammation and reduce the risk of sepsis or kidney damage.

  • The drug candidates address important medical needs in large patient groups. The markets for the treatment of infections are extensive, both nation ally and internationally.

  • Antibiotic resistance is a global, rapidly growing health concern. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared antibiotic resistance a major threat to global health.

ONGOING CLINICAL TRIALS DEVELOP ACCORDING TO PLAN

This quarter has seen the continued development of SelectImmune Pharma's project portfolio. The strategy includes the completion of the ongoing clinical Phase II trial for recurrent acute cystitis and the start of a placebo-controlled Phase II trial in patients with bladder pain syndrome. The first patients have been recruited. In both cases the immunotherapeutic drug Kineret, which is an IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA), is being used. SelectImmune Pharma owns the patent rights to use Kineret for both of these indications and the potential for helping these patients is significant. Kineret treatment has shown great promise for severely handicapped patients with bladder pain syndrome.

The company is also taking the drug candidate NlpD, through the drug development process, including GMP production and toxicology testing, and planning for clinical trials. NlpD is a protein from `'nice'' bacteria, which is beneficial for different tissues and prevents exaggerated inflammatory responses to infection. The recombinant protein shows potent anti-infective and anti-inflammatory activity in animal models of cystitis and kidney infection. NlpD promotes bacterial clearance and inhibits the inflammatory response that causes disease. In view of these properties, NlpD has the potential to add a new approach to the treatment of infection and potentially a wide range of inflammatory conditions. In addition, structural studies of NlpD may open up for 2nd generation drug candidates or new production methods, in the future.

Additionally, the company will focus on developing IRF7 inhibitors for use primarily in the treatment of kidney infections and urosepsis. IRF7 inhibitors have the potential to significantly add to antibiotic therapy for these indications and the company is exploring novel ways of inhibiting IRF7. Urosepsis is a major cause of death world-wide and treatments is made very difficult by wide-spread antibiotic resistance.

Overall, the company's continued development strategy is focused on bringing new and innovative drugs to market, and on improving patient outcomes through the use of these new treatments. The engagement in partnership and market access discussions, all play a critical role in achieving this goal.

The company has sufficient funding for this fiscal year ending 30 June 2023 and is actively seeking solutions to raise additional funds for the next development phase.

We understand that it is in the interest of all shareholders that the clinical trials are completed as soon as possible and the company is making every effort to run the studies safely and efficiently. We thank our colleagues, consultants and partners for their contributions and our shareholders for their confidence and continued support.

First patient in - a new treatment option for patients with bladder pain

SelectImmune Pharma has announced the start of a controlled clinical trial for patients with bladder pain syndrome, using the drug Kineret, an Interleukin1 (IL-1) receptor antagonist and the first patient has been included in the study. The study will include a larger number of patients and clinical centers in Sweden, and aims to evaluate the treatment effect with greater precision. The trial will initially take place in two centers in Sweden, which have extensive experience with this patient group, with the goal of reducing pain and improving quality of life for those affected. The company has received permission from the Swedish Medicines Agency and and Swedish Ethical Review Authority, and has established the study organization in Sweden. The possibility of treating this patient group is of great medical interest.

SelectImmune Pharma AB

SelectImmune Pharma AB is a company that performs drug development. The company's development aims to offer effective alternatives to antibiotics. Instead of killing the bacteria directly, the body's immune system is strengthened and balanced. The company is developing new drug candidates for the treatment of bacterial infections.

The technology agreement between SelectImmune Pharma and Linnane Pharma from 2021 ensures the company's access to advanced science and technology. The agreement runs for two years and the technology platform is available to SelectImmune Pharma on a subscription basis. This is an effective way to gain access to cutting-edge expertise and new technology at low cost. The agreement does not contain any further financial commitments to Linnane Pharma.

Revenue and earnings

As SelectImmune Pharma is a development company in life science, future income will primarily consist of various forms of royalty income such as advance payments, milestone-based payments and ongoing royalties. The longer the company runs its projects under its own auspices, the better bargaining power the company will have in business negotiations with potential future partners. The company has assessed that continued development under its own auspices will increase value and has therefore chosen not to enter into any cooperation agreements yet.

Net sales during the second quarter amounted to kSEK 0 (0), and the profit after tax amounted to kSEK -1,338 (-4,498). The lower negative result is explained by an uneven distribution of costs between the quarters and specifically lower costs for the clinical trials during this quarter.
