Company continues to show significant progress on developing highly selective antibodies targeting root cause of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases and ALS
TORONTO, Ontario and CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts – May 14, 2019 – ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of antibody therapeutics targeting toxic oligomers implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, today announced its operational and financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
“Over the course of the first quarter of 2019, the value of our unique discovery and development platform was further evidenced as we made considerable progress in expanding our portfolio of opportunities in neurodegenerative diseases,” stated Eugene Williams, ProMIS’ Executive Chairman. Antibody candidates selectively targeting toxic forms of alpha synuclein for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and toxic, aggregated forms of TDP43 for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) were identified and further characterized to support ongoing pharmaceutical partnering discussions.”
Corporate Highlights
• In January 2019, we completed a private placement of 9,560,000 common share units at a price of $0.23 per unit resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $2,198,800. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common share warrant. The common shares are subject to a four-month hold period from the date of issuance. The expiry of the warrant is subject to acceleration under certain conditions.
• In February 2019, we announced the identification of several antibody drug candidates showing best-in-class selectivity for toxic forms of alpha synuclein compared to other therapeutic antibodies in development for PD.
• Following this announcement, Dr. Neil Cashman, our CSO presented further results of the Company’s PD program at the International AD/PD 2019 Conference on March 31. The data presented showed how our novel drug discovery and development platform created antibodies that: 1) selectively bind to toxic forms of alpha synuclein while sparing healthy forms of alpha synuclein that are critical for proper cell metabolism and communication, and 2) block the neurotoxicity and the spread of the toxic forms of alpha synuclein in vitro.
• In January 2019, we appointed Timothy G. Rothwell to our Business Advisory Board. Mr. Rothwell is a highly accomplished pharmaceutical leader with more than 30 years of experience directing the development and commercialization of new therapies.
