The poster, which details POLB 001 as a potential therapy for Cytokine Release Syndrome ('CRS') associated with cancer immunotherapies, was presented by Dr Emma Searle from The Christie Hospital, Manchester, UK on Saturday 9 December. CRS is a well-recognised toxicity that occurs frequently following certain cancer treatments such as T-cell engaging antibodies and CAR T cell therapies. In addition to patient mortality and morbidity risk, the high frequency of CRS associated with these treatments represents a barrier to outpatient delivery. The need for in-patient management of CRS adds to the overall healthcare costs of delivering these treatments and contributes to restricting their availability. Meanwhile, the POLB 001 LPS human challenge trial conducted by Poolbeg demonstrated good safety and tolerability, a clear dose-response relationship, inhibition of p38 MAPK activation, and a reduction in all measured pro-inflammatory cytokines. The effects observed were a negation of immune over-reaction rather than an ablation of core immune function. Phase II trial enabling activities are underway with strong interest from potential pharma partners. David Allmond, Chief Business Officer of Poolbeg Pharma, commented: "The field of cancer immunotherapies, including CAR T and bispecific antibodies, is burgeoning and expected to grow to over $100bn by 2030. However, CRS is rate limiting in the delivery of these potentially lifesaving therapies. There is strong interest from pharma partners seeking an effective and convenient (orally administrable) solution to CRS to broaden the utilisation of their breakthrough immunotherapies. Presenting at ASH is strong validation of POLB 001's potential and we are delighted to have the opportunity to continue our productive partnering discussions at this prestigious conference." - Ends - Enquiries Poolbeg Pharma PlcJeremy Skillington, CEOIan O'Connell, CFO +44 (0) 207 183 1499 Cavendish Capital Markets Ltd (Nominated Adviser & Joint Broker)Geoff Nash, Charlie Beeson, Nigel Birks, Harriet Ward (ECM) +44 (0) 207 220 0500 Singer Capital Markets (Joint Broker)Phil Davies, Sam Butcher +44 (0) 207 496 3000 J&E Davy (Joint Broker)Anthony Farrell, Niall Gilchrist +353 (0) 1 679 6363 About Poolbeg PharmaPoolbeg Pharma plc is committed to the development and commercialisation of innovative medicines targeting diseases with a high unmet medical need.
