ZyVersa Therapeutics’ CEO, Stephen C. Glover, Featured on Benzinga All Access

WESTON, Fla., Jan. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZVSA; “ZyVersa”), a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class drugs for treatment of patients with renal and inflammatory diseases who have unmet medical needs, announces that Stephen C. Glover, Co-Founder, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President, addressed the 2024 outlook for ZyVersa and the biotechnology industry in a recent interview on Benzinga All Access.

During the interview, Mr. Glover described the significant unmet need and market opportunity in kidney disease, and how ZyVersa’s Cholesterol Efflux MediatorTM VAR 200 has the potential to improve kidney function and reduce kidney disease progression. Current treatments target glomerular hypertension and inflammation, but there are no treatments that target lipid accumulation, which is known to contribute to structural damage, proteinuria, and progression of kidney disease. ZyVersa plans to initiate a Phase 2a trial with VAR 200 in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in the first quarter of 2024, with preliminary data anticipated by mid-year 2024.

Mr. Glover also discussed ZyVersa’s proprietary Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100, which is designed to block initiation and perpetuation of damaging inflammation contributing to a multitude of inflammatory diseases. ZyVersa plans to complete GLP toxicology studies with IC 100 and submit an Investigational New Drug (IND) application in the fourth quarter of 2024, followed by initiation of a Phase 1 trial.

In addition to highlighting ZyVersa’s anticipated 2024 milestones, Mr. Glover offered his views on the renewed optimism in the biopharma macroeconomic environment in 2024, as evidenced by an increasingly positive fundraising environment, and upticks in IPOs and mergers and acquisitions across the industry.
