– Prophylactic administration of Gemini (Intravenous PHAD®) reduces tissue damage and improves kidney function in a rat model of bilateral ischemic reperfusion induced acute kidney injury (AKI) -

Revelation Biosciences Inc. (NASDAQ: REVB) (the “Company” or “Revelation”) a clinical-stage life sciences company that is focused on harnessing the power of trained immunity for the prevention and treatment of disease, announced today new preclinical data on the potential therapeutic benefit of Gemini for the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) that was presented at the International Conference on Advances in Critical Care Nephrology (AKI & CRRT 2024) taking place in San Diego on March 12-15, 2024. Gemini is the Company’s proprietary formulation of phosphorylated hexaacyl disaccharide (PHAD®), a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist, in development for prevention of AKI. A copy of the presentation and poster presented at the AKI and CRRT 2024 Conference can be found on Revelation’s website.

Results from Bilateral Rat Model of Ischemia Reperfusion Induced AKI

In a clinically relevant bilateral rat model of ischemia reperfusion (I/R) induced acute kidney injury (AKI), animals were dosed intravenously with PHAD at 0.07 or 0.35mg/kg at 24 hours and/or 48 hours prior to I/R surgery. In addition to clinical observation, rats were evaluated for markers of kidney function at 24 and/or 72 hours post-surgery, and markers of kidney damage at 72 hours post-surgery.

In this model, Gemini pretreatment (0.35mg/kg) significantly:

  • Preserved kidney function with a more rapid return to base line relative to untreated control animals, with statistically significant reductions in serum creatinine (p<0.01 at 24 hours, p<0.02 at 72 hours) and serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (p<0.02 at 72 hours).
  • Reduced overall damage (necrosis) of the cortical (p<0.02) and medullary tubules (p<0.01) relative to the untreated group.
  • Significantly reduced markers of local inflammation at 24 and/or 72 hours as measured by concentrations of urinary and serum c-reactive protein (CRP) (p<0.01) and IL-6 (p<0.05).
  • Significantly reduced markers of cellular inflammation as observed via reduced neutrophilic inflammation with a single dose of 0.35mg/kg (p<0.02).

The improved kidney function, reduced necrosis and reduced inflammatory biomarkers observed in this study are attributed to the immunostimulatory preconditioning effect of Gemini which includes strong upregulation of IL-10, a key cytokine responsible for resolution of inflammation.

“These results demonstrate that Gemini has the potential to reduce tissue damage and improve kidney function in ischemic reperfusion induced acute kidney injury and potentially other inflammatory diseases,” said James Rolke, Chief Executive Officer of Revelation. “In addition to this, we are excited to have initiated our Phase 1 clinical study with Gemini in February 2024 and we look forward to starting studies in patients later this year.”

About Gemini

Gemini is a proprietary formulation of phosphorylated hexaacyl disaccharide (PHAD®) for systemic administration. It is being developed for multiple indications including as a pretreatment to prevent or reduce the severity and duration of post-surgical infection (GEMINI-SSI program), and as pretreatment to prevent or reduce the severity and duration of acute kidney injury (GEMINI-AKI program). In addition, Gemini may be a treatment to stop or slow the progression of chronic kidney disease (GEMINI-CKD program). Revelation believes Gemini works through trained immunity, which redirects and attenuates the innate immune response to external stress (infection, trauma, etc.). Revelation has conducted multiple preclinical studies demonstrating the therapeutic potential of Gemini in the target indications.
