Wednesday, May 10, 2022: Biosergen AB ("Biosergen" or the "Company") hereby announces that the 2022 annual report is available on the company website (www.biosergen.net)
Biosergen CEO Peder M. Andersen commented: "We are pleased to present Biosergen's annual report for 2022. The most important event during the year was the successfully repeated dose escalation in our Phase I trial in Australia, which has since been successfully completed earlier this year. The trial was successful in both the single and in the multiple ascending dose part and proved BSG005 to be safe and well tolerated with no serious adverse events and only mild to moderate adverse event (e.g. headache, chills, dizziness). Most importantly it was confirmed that BSG005 does not have any impact on kidney or liver functions and also not on any blood parameters. This is a major advantage compared to Amphotericin B, where kidney problems causes about 30% to stop the treatment with Amphotericin B. Moreover, through our successful rights issue completed in September, we raised more than 42 million SEK, providing us with the necessary funding needed to complete the Phase I trial and initiate and run our recently announced upcoming Phase II trial. The phase II trial will involve patients, who has failed on Amphotericin B for safety reasons and will look for showing efficacy and no safety complications on the kidney and other parameters. Given our pre-clinical data and now clinical phase I data this looks promising and would be a real rescue treatment in patients, with no treatment alternative. Should we be successful in this trial we consider to expand the trial to other countries in order to establish the basis for a regulatory submission and approval for these patients in a "compassionate use" or "named patient use" indication. Biosergen will still pursue our already communicated phase II clinical trials.
All in all, 2022 was a year of significant progress for us, and we look forward to advancing BSG005's development with the aim of bringing it to market as a much-needed treatment option for patients with difficult-to-treat fungal infections."
