−Removed: Positive Interim Data from Phase 2 CALLIPER Trial of Vidofludimus Calcium in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
−Removed: On October 9, 2023, we announced positive interim data from our Phase 2 CALLIPER trial of vidofludimus calcium in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis ("PMS").
−Removed: The predefined interim analysis examined the change from baseline to 24 weeks in serum neurofilament light chain (“NfL”) and glial fibrillar acidic protein ("GFAP") levels among approximately the first half of patients enrolled in this trial.
−Removed: We believe that this data showed biomarker evidence that vidofludimus calcium's activity extends beyond the previously observed anti-inflammatory effects, thereby further reinforcing its neuroprotective potential.
−Removed: Serum NfL responses were consistently observed for vidofludimus calcium across progressive MS disease and all subpopulations.
−Removed: In the overall PMS population at 24 weeks (N=203), vidofludimus calcium was associated with a 6.7% reduction from baseline in serum NfL, compared to a 15.8% increase over baseline in placebo (p=0.01, post hoc).
−Removed: At 48 weeks (N=79), vidofludimus calcium reduced serum NfL by 10.4% from baseline, compared to a 6.4% increase in placebo.
−Removed: Substantial reductions were also seen across all PMS subtypes, as well as in patients that show or do not show disease and/or magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI") activity.
−Removed: Although early, interim GFAP data also showed a promising signal:
−Removed: at 24 weeks (N=203), GFAP increased by 3.7% for vidofludimus calcium, and 4.4% for placebo.
−Removed: At 48 weeks (N=79), the change was only 2.7% for vidofludimus calcium, with a 6.4% increase for placebo.

−Removed: Activation of Nurr1 could be responsible for the drug’s postulated neuroprotective effects and may contribute to the previously reported reduction of confirmed disability worsening events in MS patients.
−Removed: Specifically, preclinical data shows potent Nurr1 activation by vidofludimus calcium at low concentrations in several test systems.
−Removed: The data was published in the peer-reviewed, high impact Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, in a paper entitled, “Development of a potent Nurr1 agonist tool for in vivo applications” (Vietor et al., 2023).

−Removed: On May 4, 2023, we announced positive results from our Phase 1b clinical trial of IMU-856 in patients with celiac disease.
−Removed: The data demonstrated positive effects for IMU-856 over placebo in four key dimensions of celiac disease pathophysiology:
−Removed: protection of the gut architecture, improvement of patients’ symptoms, biomarker response, and enhancement of nutrient absorption.
−Removed: IMU-856 was also observed to be safe and well-tolerated in this trial.
−Removed: We believe that this data set provides initial clinical proof-of-concept for an entirely new therapeutic approach to gastrointestinal disorders by promoting regeneration of bowel architecture.
−Removed: The data provides first clinical evidence that IMU-856’s ability, observed in preclinical studies, to induce physiological gut cell renewal translates into clinical benefits for patients with celiac disease.
−Removed: Most importantly, the observed protection of intestinal villi from gluten-induced destruction, independent of targeting immune mechanisms involved specifically in celiac disease, appears to be unique among proposed therapeutic approaches and may be applicable to other gastrointestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, short bowel syndrome and irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea.
