Psoriasis First-in-Human (Phase I/IIa) program is slated for 2022

Type 1 Diabetes and Skin Allografting are planned to enter clinical trials in 2022

Pre-clinical investigational work has started in Multiple Sclerosis

Aditxt, Inc. (the “Company” or “Aditxt”) (Nasdaq: ADTX), a biotech innovation company with a mission to improve the health of the immune system, today announced its Psoriasis clinical program will now be slated for 2022 instead of December 2021 as previously announced. The updated timeline is due to a lengthier large scale clinical grade manufacturing and approval process for initiating toxicology studies. Meanwhile, Aditxt has continued to strengthen the data set that will be supporting regulatory submissions for the Apoptotic DNA Immunotherapy™ (ADi™) platform for evaluation of ADi in clinical studies for skin allografting and type 1 diabetes in addition to the trials planned for psoriasis.

The Company is also announcing the expansion of its preclinical ADi program to include antigen-specific immune cell modulation for multiple sclerosis (MS), alongside its existing projects focused on type 1 diabetes and skin allografting. Broadening the therapeutic programs to include MS is intended to address an important clinical need in addition to demonstrating the utility of ADi as an antigen-specific immune tolerance platform.

‘’We’ve chosen to target our research into MS because there is a significant clinical unmet need for therapies that aid repair of damage caused by MS that impacts nerve cells in the central nervous system,” said Amro Albanna, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Aditxt. “This development is a natural evolution of our business model for therapeutics, which is focused on early-stage clinical development in partnership with life sciences leaders and partners.”

ADi is a nucleic acid-based technology, which utilizes a novel approach that mimics the way a person’s body naturally induce tolerance to their own tissues (“therapeutically induced immune tolerance”). ADi is designed and being developed to retrain the immune system to become tolerant to transplanted tissues, allergens and self-tissues that have become the target of autoimmunity. This therapeutic approach is designed to modulate the immune cells that specifically attack the target tissues rather than indiscriminately suppressing or blind folding the immune response.

Aditxt is continuing to build its patent portfolio protecting ADi with the addition of new patent families in 2021. To date, Aditxt’s worldwide exclusively licensed ADi intellectual property portfolio is comprised of 96 issued patents, and 22 pending applications.
