Rethinking the Role of Immunomodulators
Watch how EOM Pharmaceuticals is rethinking the role of immunomodulators with its novel, dynamically dual-acting, broad-spectrum lead asset, EOM613, which can produce anti- and pro-inflammatory effects and could mitigate a hyperimmune reaction or “cytokine storm.”
An investigational, novel, dynamically dual-acting immunomodulator. EOM613 is a peptide-nucleic acid solution and is believed to have both anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory broad-spectrum cytokine effects. In human cell culture studies, EOM613 demonstrated a unique “dynamic dual action” by suppressing or stimulating monocytes and macrophages depending on the activation state and environment of those key immune cells.1,2,3 It is hypothesized that this dynamic dual action may overcome a limitation of many approved immunomodulators that only reduce the inflammatory state, without achieving immune system balance.
An investigational, broad-spectrum aminosterol with a unique intracellular mechanism for the treatment of retinal diseases. EOM147 is believed to affect multiple angiogenic growth factors such as VEGF, PdGF, and bFGF. This mechanism of action is uniquely differentiated from other retinal therapies that are only anti-VEGF and administered as an intraocular injection. The novel formulation, administererd as an eye drop, represents a potential breakthrough that does not require intraocular injection.
EOM147 is being developed as proprietary, newly reformulated eye drop, containing a steroid-polyamine conjugate compound with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and anti-angiogenic activity.
