MyMD Pharmaceuticals® to Present Data on Oral TNF-a Inhibitor MYMD-1® at the British Society for Immunology (BSI) Congress 2022

BALTIMORE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MyMD Pharmaceuticals, Inc.® (Nasdaq: MYMD) (“MyMD” or “the Company”), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing groundbreaking therapies for the treatment of serious and debilitating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, is presenting data today at the 2022 British Society for Immunology (BSI) Congress in Liverpool, England. Results from preclinical and clinical studies showed that MYMD-1 was safe and well-tolerated in healthy subjects and significantly reduced inflammation in a mouse model compared to the widely used arthritis treatment etanercept (Enbrel®). These findings support the continued evaluation of MYMD-1® for autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The studies were designed to investigate the safety and pharmacology profile of MYMD-1. In a preclinical study, repeat oral administration to mice in a collagen antibody induced arthritis (CAIA) model at 450 mg/kg/day significantly reduced the clinical score and paw swelling when compared to the CAIA disease control. In-life results showed percent change of inflammation relative to control was reduced by 37% with MYMD-1 while reduction was 29% with etanercept at 10 mg/kg/day. In a clinical study of healthy adults, single daily oral doses each of 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg for 3 days and multiple daily doses of 600 mg for 6 days were safe and well-tolerated. “
