https://promisneurosciences.com/podcasts/saving-minds-special-episode-promis-to-develop-a-covid-19-test/

TORONTO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), a company with a unique, core technology to predict novel targets on the molecular surface of complex proteins, announced today a collaboration with Dr. Hans Frykman and his team to develop a high-throughput, highly specific serological assay to accurately detect the presence of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. A test for COVID-19 immunity is essential to understanding patterns of immunity in the community and support an effective surveillance program, which public health authorities suggest is necessary to restart society.

A specific and sensitive test that could identify who has virus immunity and who remains at risk would enable normal societal function to recommence more effectively. A highly specific serology test for SARS CoV-2 is currently lacking due to its close relationship with other relatively benign (i.e., the common cold) but highly similar strains of coronaviruses. Prominent cross-reactivity between the family of coronaviruses hinders development of specific tests using traditional platforms such as ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay).

“Community surveillance of COVID-19 is the largest unmet need of our decade,” stated Dr. Neil Cashman, ProMIS Chief Scientific Officer. “We are very pleased to welcome Dr. Frykman to the ProMIS SAB and to collaborate with him and his team to jointly address this gap. Dr. Frykman’s lab has a substantial track record for developing novel serological assays, including the application of sophisticated techniques such as surface plasmon resonance (SPR), to unambiguously determine specific antibody concentrations in human serum samples.”

Commenting on the collaboration, Dr. Frykman stated: “This exciting collaboration brings together our broad experience in developing sensitive and highly accurate serological tests with ProMIS’ unique ability to create peptide antigens based on rational identification of the site and shape (conformation) of epitope targets on complex protein structures, such as those displayed on the surface of the virus causing COVID-19. We anticipate that the predicted specificity of the ProMIS peptide antigens for the antibody response to COVID-19, without cross-reactivity with other coronavirus infections, will be an essential component for the rapid development of a highly sensitive and accurate serological assay.”

ProMIS Neurosciences initiates Natural History Study of Blood-Based Biomarkers in Alzheimer’s Disease
By Promis Neuro Admin on Feb 26, 2020 07:30 am
Biomarkers offer opportunity to make go/no-go decisions for investigational therapies as early as Phase 1

TORONTO, Ontario and CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — February 26, 2020 — ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), with Toronto Memory Program, Canada’s largest and most experienced memory clinic and site for drug treatment trials in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has initiated a pilot longitudinal study to assess the level of blood-based biomarkers in early AD with the support of Parexel, one of the world’s leading global clinical research organizations (CROs). ProMIS will leverage Parexel’s significant data management and central nervous system (CNS) expertise for the study, which it will use as the historical control arm for its anticipated Phase 1 study of PMN310, a novel antibody that selectively targets the toxic oligomeric species of amyloid beta, a root cause of AD. The dataset will help ProMIS detect a treatment signal as early as Phase 1, potentially allowing for rapid proof-of-concept at a fraction of the expense associated with traditional clinical trials. The dataset will be made available as a communal resource for Alzheimer’s researchers.

“Alzheimer’s patients and their families have endured far too many late-stage therapy failures,” said Sharon Cohen, MD, FRCPC, Medical Director of Toronto Memory Program and Principal Investigator of the study. “A new generation of blood-based biomarkers offers researchers the opportunity to measure treatment success much earlier than with traditional methods. As both a clinician and researcher, being able to detect a treatment signal in Phase 1 allows me to proceed with confidence knowing I’m focused on a validated therapy candidate with credible potential for success with my patients.”

Parexel will support ProMIS on the assimilation and management of this large data set, aimed at helping the industry derive important insights to drive the development of future therapies.

“As a truly patient-focused CRO, it’s an incredibly exciting time to be involved in Alzheimer’s disease therapy research as we await FDA’s decision regarding the first disease-modifying therapy, aducanumab,” shared Sy Pretorius, MD, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical and Scientific Officer, Parexel. “Harnessing the power of biomarker data holds great potential in helping to reach the next generation of innovation with the ultimate goal of bringing more therapies to market for Alzheimer’s patients, their caregivers and their families.”

“The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has indicated it will accelerate approval of potential Alzheimer’s disease therapies if researchers can demonstrate meaningful biomarker changes,” said James Kupiec, MD, Chief Medical Officer for ProMIS Neurosciences, the study sponsor. “The Alzheimer’s research community has desperately needed a reliable, reproducible way to measure a drug’s effectiveness earlier than Phase 2 or 3 at which time so much money, patient hardship and time have been expended. The expected dataset could help facilitate the detection of a meaningful signal as early as Phase 1. This is really critical as it may enable us to advance only the best candidates with the highest potential for success. We look forward to using these data to advance PMN310 quickly. In addition, we will offer the biomarker dataset to the research community to help advance additional therapies.”

Several highly sensitive biomarkers are currently in development that could measure neuronal injury more accurately and/or more conveniently than current standards. Significantly, this new generation of blood-based biomarkers may afford drug developers a convenient means to measure the effectiveness of potential disease-modifying therapies as early as Phase 1, sparing patients, investors and researchers the time, expense and anguish associated with late-stage clinical trial failures.

Toronto Memory Program will lead this non-interventional natural history study which will measure the concentrations of neurofilament light chain (NfL) and other blood-based biomarkers on a monthly basis for a period of six months in AD patients with early stage disease. Designed to support multiple centers and up to 100 patients, the study will evaluate the plasma concentration of these biomarkers over the course of the study as well as visit-to-visit variability. The monthly data collection mirrors the design of a Phase 1 interventional trial where monthly blood draws to evaluate plasma biomarker levels coincide with monthly treatments/infusions.

The depth of the biomarker data from the natural history study will offer a powerful historical reference group with multiple monthly data points per patient.

ProMIS Neurosciences Data for Alzheimer’s Disease Program Targeting Tau Accepted for Presentation at Tau2020

January 29, 2020 News

Dual targeting of neurotoxic tau and amyloid beta is a promising area of therapy development for Alzheimer’s; ProMIS to present data on novel antibodies for toxic tau

TORONTO, Ontario and CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — January 29, 2020 — ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of antibody therapeutics targeting toxic oligomers implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, announced today that data supporting its Alzheimer’s disease program targeting neurotoxic tau has been accepted for presentation at Tau2020 Global Conference, an international conference sponsored by the Alzheimer’s Association, Rainwater Foundation and CurePSP. ProMIS will present data showing the ability of its novel antibody candidates to bind and neutralize the seeding activity of toxic tau species, which—along with the protein amyloid-beta—are considered the most promising targets for potential Alzheimer’s disease (AD) therapy.
ProMIS Chief Development Officer Dr. Johanne Kaplan will present the poster, “Selective Targeting of Pathogenic Tau Aggregates with Rationally Designed Antibodies,” as well as a short Lightning Round oral presentation on the first day of the conference, Wednesday, February 12, from 1:45-2:45. The antibodies were generated using ProMIS’ proprietary drug discovery and development platform. The tau antibodies join ProMIS’ lead candidate for AD, PMN310, which targets the toxic oligomer of amyloid beta (AßO), giving ProMIS a pipeline that offers a critical “one-two punch” for potential Alzheimer’s disease therapies.
“Published data from the team led by Nobel Laureate Stanley B. Prusiner M.D., show that Alzheimer’s disease is driven by self-propagating prion-like aggregates of amyloid and tau,” said Dr. Johanne Kaplan, chief development officer of ProMIS Neurosciences. “We created ProMIS to discover and advance new antibody candidates that can selectively target the toxic forms of misfolded proteins, including amyloid and tau, for potential therapies for a range of neurodegenerative diseases. We’re pleased to share our findings for tau with the larger community and to have our data recognized by such an accomplished program committee.”
ProMIS Neurosciences’ drug discovery and development platform produces antibody candidates that meet a key success factor for an AD therapy: the ability to selectively target the toxic form of a misfolded protein, while sparing its normal, physiologically important form. This continues to challenge Alzheimer’s drug development, evidenced most recently by aducanumab’s limited selectivity for AßOs: in the phase 3 EMERGE trial, aducanumab’s off-target binding to plaque caused adverse and dose-limiting ARIA-E (brain swelling) in 35% of participants. ProMIS’ platform not only generates high-quality antibody candidates with precision selectivity for only the toxic species, it also delivers powerful, confirmed candidates in months versus years. Used in combination with new biomarkers for AD, it gives researchers a unique opportunity to dramatically improve the success and speed of drug development efforts.
Tau2020 will take place February 12-13 in at the Marriott Marquis in Washington, D.C. To learn more about AD therapy development efforts, listen to the podcast, Saving Minds, at iTunes or Spotify.

ProMIS Neurosciences issues Chairman’s Update detailing positive outlook for Alzheimer’s disease therapy, pipeline in 2020
By Promis Neuro Admin on Jan 08, 2020 07:30 am
Anticipated approval of first amyloid-beta-targeting therapy to pave the way for next-generation therapies; PMN310 positioned as best-in-class against amyloid toxicity

TORONTO, Ontario and CAMBRIDGE, Mass. —January 8, 2020— ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc. (TSX: PMN) (OTCQB: ARFXF), a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of antibody therapeutics targeting toxic oligomers implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, issued today a Chairman’s Update, which discusses the outlook for the company’s pipeline in light of anticipated regulatory approval for the first disease modifying therapy for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Accumulating data continue to validate the need for a drug candidate with improved selectivity for amyloid-beta oligomers (AßO). Compared to Aß-directed antibodies in development, ProMIS’ lead therapeutic antibody candidate, PMN310 demonstrates superior selectivity for toxic AßOs, and great potential as a next-generation, disease-modifying therapy candidate for AD.

“We are finally turning the corner in Alzheimer’s disease,” said ProMIS Neurosciences’ Executive Chairman Eugene Williams, who authored the Chairman’s Update. “In this decade, physicians and researchers alike will gain access to new non-invasive biomarkers that will allow them to diagnose Alzheimer’s earlier, monitor disease progression and significantly, develop next-generation therapies faster and with greater efficiency and lower costs than traditional clinical trials have allowed. I believe this will enable drug developers to usher not one but a portfolio of Alzheimer’s therapies to this patient community in dire need of effective treatment.”

Mr. Williams continued: “ProMIS is in a unique position to contribute to and benefit from this unprecedented momentum. Our diverse portfolio includes differentiated antibodies selectively targeting toxic forms of Aß and tau along with robust discovery efforts to target additional misfolded proteins involved in neuroinflammation and neuroprotection. At the precipice of what is poised to be a radical phase of progress in addressing this devastating disease, we are invigorated by the promise of our path and steadfast in our commitment to patients, our investors and the research community at large.”

Aducanumab is good; next generation Alzheimer’s disease therapies will be better. New data for aducanumab strengthens potential for Alzheimer’s therapy in near term, fuels next-generation therapies with more selective binding for toxic species of amyloid beta
GLOBENEWSWIRE 11:50 AM ET 12/5/2019

TORONTO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ProMIS Neurosciences, Inc.(ARFXF) , a biotechnology company focused on the discovery and development of antibody therapeutics targeting toxic oligomers implicated in the development of neurodegenerative diseases, commends Biogen for its trailblazing efforts to advance aducanumab. Data released today at CTAD (Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease conference) strengthen aducanumab’s potential to become the first disease-modifying therapy for Alzheimer’s disease. The data clearly underscore the need for next-generation drug candidates that offer more precise binding to the misfolded beta amyloid oligomer (AßO), the toxic species of the amyloid beta protein and root cause of Alzheimer’s disease.


“Today’s presentation reflects yet another landmark step toward the approval of a disease-modifying therapy for Alzheimer’s disease, which, we must remember, is currently the only top-ten cause of death without treatment,” said ProMIS Neurosciences(ARFXF) Chief Medical Officer James Kupiec, MD. “The aducanumab data is indeed good news, but the compound has limitations. History frequently shows that first-generation therapies for the most challenging diseases often have major efficacy or safety limitations. In heart disease, cancer and HIV, first-generation efforts often paved the way for better, safer medicines, and the same will be true for Alzheimer’s disease by more precisely targeting only the toxic species of amyloid beta and thereby avoiding the dose-limiting side effects associated with unwanted off-target binding. We will get there. Biomarkers will help us get there faster, but aducanumab is a tremendous first step.”

New data for aducanumab affirm a statistically significant reduction in cognitive and functional decline for participants in the EMERGE trial. As clinical benefit depends on the amount of antibody that can reach the pathogenic species of amyloid beta, data continue to show that aducanumab demonstrates limited selectivity for AßOs: off-target binding to amyloid plaque was associated with adverse and dose-limiting ARIA-E (brain swelling) in 35% of trial participants despite attempts to minimize it by titrating drug dosing.

PMN310 is a next generation drug candidate that offers more precise selectivity for AßOs, which is expected to provide greater clinical benefit and safety based upon current preclinical data. Created using a novel drug discovery and development platform that can uniquely and precisely target the toxic forms of otherwise normal proteins, PMN310 demonstrates a high degree of binding to toxic oligomers without binding to non-toxic forms of amyloid beta. Data also demonstrate PMN310’s greater therapeutic potency versus other Aß-directed antibodies. For more information about PMN310, please visit www.promisneurosciences.com.
