Immunis Wins Grand Prize in National Academy of Medicine Healthy Longevity Global Competition
Recognition follows National Academy of Medicine Healthy Longevity Grand Prize win and highlights Immunis’ pioneering approach to restoring muscle function and advancing healthy aging
This marks the company’s second year on the prestigious list of key innovators in scientific, regulatory and industry progress and builds on the recognition of Immunis last month as the National Academy of Medicine’s Healthy Longevity Global Competition Grand Prize. Later this month, new preclinical data of Immunis’ investigational IMM01-STEM therapy will be presented by its Chief Science Officer, Dr. Tom Lane, at Obesity Week in Washington, D.C..
“Aging is a multi-system problem that requires a multi-active immunotherapy, one that can address the complex processes that contribute to chronic disease and age-related decline,” says Hans Keirstead, PhD, Chair
man of the Board at Immunis. “Immunis has produced an immunotherapy that addresses what matters most to patients: mobility, strength, and independence.”
Immunis’ lead investigational biologic, IMM01-STEM, is a first-in-class, multi-active secretome-based therapy designed to address the complex biological pathways associated with age-related muscle and metabolic decline. In a Phase 2 clinical research study of older adults with sarcopenic obesity, IMM01-STEM demonstrated
preservation of muscle and improvements in gait speed, a clinically meaningful measure of mobility and physical function.
The Immunis team is advancing its clinical development program with plans for two confirmatory Phase 2b trials, supported by financing and expanded manufacturing capabilities designed to accelerate the development of IMM01-STEM. Immunis celebrates HTR’s recognition and will build on this momentum to pursue promising advances in regenerative medicine with real-world impact.
Immunis is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel multi-active biologics designed to address age-related muscle and metabolic decline. Its lead investigational therapy, IMM01-STEM, leverages a proprietary secretome-based approach to target multiple biological pathways associated with aging and restore muscle function. Through rigorous clinical development and a focus on meaningful functional outcomes, Immunis aims to advance therapies that help people maintain mobility, independence, and quality of life as they age.
