Capricor Therapeutics Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2020 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update
Exosomes Platform Technology-Pre-IND Meeting with FDA this Quarter to Discuss Multivalent Exosome-mRNA Vaccine--Pipeline Expansion Underway Using Engineered Exosomes- Cell Therapy Program-In Discussions with FDA on Pathway to Approval for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy--Phase II INSPIRE Top-Line Data Expected in Third Quarter- -To Host Conference Call and Webcast Today at 4:30 p.m. ET- LOS ANGELES, March 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Capricor Therapeutics (NASDAQ: CAPR), a biotechnology company focused on the development of transformative cell- and exosome-based therapeutics for the treatment and prevention of a broad spectrum of diseases, announced today its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020 and provided a corporate update. "2020 was a tremendously important and meaningful year for Capricor marked by advances in our engineered exosome platform technology and continued progress in our clinical-stage cell therapy programs for Duchenne muscular dystrophy and COVID-19,” said Linda Marbán, Ph.D., Capricor’s president and chief executive officer. “Pivotal to the plan to initiate our engineered exosome platform technology was the appointment of Dr. Stephen Gould as executive consultant to guide the development of this platform. In order to validate the technology, we developed a multi-antigen vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 which led to several publications describing that our vaccine candidate can induce long-lasting immune responses to multiple SARS-CoV-2 proteins, and potentially elicit a broad-based, cellular and humoral immunity. We are now planning on moving this vaccine into the clinic in 2021, subject to regulatory approval.” “One of the reasons the exosomes are potentially so useful and transformative is their ability to speak the language of a cell. We believe that exosomes loaded with biologic payloads will be important in the development of new therapeutics and vaccines, added Dr. Marbán. “Capricor, in 2021, is focused on becoming a leading exosome-RNA company and all of our work in the development of a vaccine for SARS-CoV-2 is simply a prelude to the future development of exosome-based vaccines and therapeutics, with the ultimate goal of generating formulations of engineered exosomes and synthetic mRNAs to potentially prevent and treat human diseases. The opportunities for pipeline expansion are very exciting.” Dr. Marbán continued, “we have now conducted two positive clinical trials in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Our HOPE-2 trial demonstrated statistically significant results in upper limb skeletal muscle and cardiac function. We are currently discussing this program with FDA to determine the appropriate path forward and are actively discussing partnership opportunities for this asset. We believe these initiatives position us well as we look forward to a productive year in our therapeutics development programs."
