Ocean Biomedical (NASDAQ: OCEA), a biopharma company that endeavors to accelerate the development of compelling discoveries from top research scientists, congratulates its joint venture partner, Virion Therapeutics, LLC, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing T cell-based immunotherapies, for the acceptance of its abstract highlighting the first-ever human data from its novel checkpoint modifier immunotherapy for HBV functional cure. The abstract was accepted for late breaker oral presentation at the 33rd Annual Meeting of APASL (The Asian Pacific Association for the Study of the Liver), taking place in Kyoto, Japan, from March 27-31, 2024. “This accepted abstract highlights Virion’s commitment to finding a functional cure for chronically HBV-infected patients – and the first-ever human data for a genetically encoded checkpoint modifier T cell vaccine of any kind. VRON-0200 is uniquely developed to stimulate a patient’s own immune response to the virus. Additionally, its mechanism of action and intramuscular administration were designed to limit safety issues for this novel therapy,” said Dr. Sue Currie, COO of Virion and one of the study authors. “We look forward to sharing these late breaking clinical HBV data at APASL, one of the leading meetings on the treatment of liver diseases in the world.”
