BOSTON, Mar 22, 2023 - Remedium Bio, a biotechnology company developing a lead candidate disease modifying treatment for Osteoarthritis (OA), and Exothera S.A., a full-service Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) specialized in gene therapy, vaccines, and oncolytic viruses, reached an agreement for a collaboration to demonstrate the industrialization potential of Remedium’s AAV2-FGF18.

Remedium’s lead candidate is the only disease modifying gene therapy based on the clinically proven regenerative mechanism of FGF18. OA is the largest unmet clinical need in rheumatology, with no currently approved disease modifying treatments and an estimated 300-500 million patients around the globe. Remedium’s recent development progress, demonstrating strong safety and efficacy potential in a translatable preclinical model, was recently presented at the 2023 Orthopaedic Research Society meeting, 2023 OARSI World Congress, and the 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research meeting.

Exothera is a highly experienced viral vector manufacturer, with demonstrated capabilities in large-scale AAV production, achieving state-of-the art titers and quality. Boasting an existing 160,000 sq. ft. high-tech manufacturing centre of excellence in Jumet, Belgium, Exothera is well-positioned to supply Remedium's lead candidate for clinical studies and at commercial scale. Exothera can count on state-of-the-art technology and an extensive set of experts in AAV-based viral vector production. The CDMO will execute a proof of concept for transient expression of Remedium’s AAV2-FGF18 with suspension culture, based on a HEK-293 cell line. Exothera will focus on identifying a high yield production process and reduce cost of goods for the manufacturing process of Remedium’s AAV2-FGF18.

Hanna Lesch, Chief Technology Officer at Exothera: “It is wonderful to engage in a new challenge to apply the exoREADY™ platform to a first-in-class gene therapy for Osteoarthritis. We have already achieved promising results with other AAV-based gene therapies, and we are confident that we can play our part in making a better life for patients”.

Frank Luppino, President, and CEO of Remedium: “With several recently approved cell and gene therapy products advancing to the market, gene therapy is transcending the realm of rare monogenic disorders to enable treatment of large unmet clinical needs like Osteoarthritis. Remedium’s recently published preclinical results uniquely position the company to advance this transformative therapy to the clinic. We are very excited to be able to partner with Exothera on this project to advance our lead candidate through preclinical toxicology studies and eventually human clinical trials.”

BOSTON, Mar 13, 2023 - Remedium Bio, a gene therapy company developing novel treatments for significant unmet needs, today announced the publication of pre-clinical data demonstrating the safety and chondrogenic activity of RMD1101, its innovative gene therapy for Osteoarthritis. These data are the first to be published from Remedium’s ongoing research collaboration with Tufts University studying the approach. The paper, entitled “Adeno-Associated Virus-Delivered Fibroblast Growth Factor 18 Gene Therapy Promotes Cartilage Anabolism” will be published in Volume 14, Issue 1 of the journal Cartilage, and is available OnlineFirst.

Key Points

- AAV2-FGF18 appears to have a wide therapeutic safety window and is able to induce chondrogenesis at very low, locally administered doses

- The FGF18 gene therapy appears to induce chondrogenesis by increasing hyaline cartilage associated gene expression and promoting chondrocyte proliferation

- RMD1101 appears safe and effective at promoting cartilage anabolism in vivo, following a single intra articular injection

“Having these results published in Cartilage provides important external validation of their significance” said Frank Luppino, President and CEO of Remedium. “Our findings confirm the chondrogenic mechanism after a single injection of RMD1101 and provide preliminary confirmation for the potential of the gene therapy approach to treating Osteoarthritis.” RMD1101 is the only disease modifying gene therapy treatment for Osteoarthritis based on the clinically validated chondrogenic mechanism of FGF18. It is being studied as a single injection treatment for OA in both the human and companion animal markets. “Our results show the promise of treating Osteoarthritis by harnessing the endogenous regenerative power of articular cartilage with a single intra-articular injection FGF18 gene therapy,” said Dr. Li Zeng, PhD, Associate Professor of Immunology at Tufts University School of Medicine. Dr. Zeng is a co-author of the publication and an expert in Osteoarthritis and the molecular and cellular mechanisms of the disease.

Cartilage is a peer-reviewed, open access journal which publishes articles with a focus on recent discoveries related to the musculoskeletal system and cartilage repair, development, and regeneration. The Sage Publishing group, MEDLINE indexed journal publishes full length original manuscripts covering preclinical and clinical research, and is considered among the top journals in the field of cartilage regeneration.

BOSTON, Aug 15, 2022 - Remedium Bio, Inc., a biotechnology company developing novel gene therapies, today announced that it has closed more than $2.3M in its expanded seed round financing. Funding from the raise is being used to study Remedium’s lead product, a single-injection gene therapy potentially capable of reversing cartilage loss, in a collaboration with Tufts University School of Medicine scientists researching rheumatic disorders. The financing was led by Sherwood Ventures and included participation from, LongevityTech.Fund, Primo Medical Group, Angel Star Ventures, Apis Health Angels, MicroVentures, and Guindy Alumni Angels.

Remedium’s lead candidate is the only single injection gene therapy based on the clinically proven anabolic mechanism of FGF18, which has demonstrated the ability to reverse cartilage loss in a placebo controlled, multi-center, randomized clinical trial. Osteoarthritis is the largest unmet need in Rheumatology, presenting a market of $37B with no currently approved therapies capable of slowing or reversing disease progression. Remedium’s novel solution offers the potential to arrest disease progression after a single injection and promote restoration of a more natural, youthful phenotype of articular cartilage.

“Our technology has the potential to reverse years of age-related cartilage loss, for a disease that currently has no approved therapeutic treatments capable of slowing or reversing progression” said Frank Luppino, President and CEO of Remedium Bio, Inc. “We are extremely excited about the progress made to date, and believe that our gene-augmentation technology can be translated to a number of other age-related pathologies with no currently available disease-modifying options.”

Remedium was founded by orthopedics industry veterans with proven track records of developing leading therapeutics at companies ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500. Remedium has attracted a number of academic collaborators and medical KOLs to its advisory board including Dr. Timothy McAlindon, MD, MPH, Chief of the Division of Rheumatology at Tufts Medical Center, Professor at Tufts University School of Medicine; Dr. Anastassios Pittas, MD, MS, Chief of the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism and Co-Director of the Diabetes and Lipid Center at Tufts Medical Center, Professor at Tufts University School of Medicine; Dr. Jeff Ellsworth, PhD, the pioneer of rhFGF18 technology and CSO of Recardia Therapeutics; Dr. Li Zeng PhD, MA, MS, BA Associate Professor Immunology at Tufts University School of Medicine; and Dr. Kai Zou PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Exercise and Health Sciences, at the University of Massachusetts, Boston.

Remedium’s pipeline includes therapeutic indications in Osteoarthritis, Diabetes, Stroke, and other large unmet clinical needs.
