iBio Announces IBIO-600 Non-Human Primate Data Showing Extended Half-Life and Muscle Growth, and Interim In Vivo Results for First-in-Class Activin E Antibody, Advancing Cardiometabolic and Obesity Pipeline
These forward-looking statements are based upon current estimates and assumptions and include statements regarding non-human primate pharmacokinetics data suggesting IBIO-600, a potentially best-in-class long-acting anti-myostatin antibody, could have a human half-life as long as 130 days; remaining on track to submit a regulatory submission for IBIO-600 in Q1 2026; IBIO-600 providing a significantly extended half-life in humans and a weight loss treatment option while preserving and promoting muscle growth; the extended half-life potentially enabling a once every 3 to 6-month dosing schedule and positioning IBIO-600 as a best-in-class therapeutic for muscle preservation and high-quality weight loss; IBIO-600 possibly exhibiting the longest half-life among any other anti-myostatin candidates — potentially leading to best-in-class muscle preservation and growth with a significantly reduced dosing burden for patients with a few doses a year; IBIO-600’s extended half-life and muscle-building potential making it a transformative candidate for high-quality weight loss, further strengthening our expanding cardiometabolic and obesity pipeline; and the potential of Activin E inhibition as a transformative approach to obesity treatment, supporting further development and clinical advancement.
Non-human primate pharmacokinetics data suggests IBIO-600, a potentially best-in-class long-acting anti-myostatin antibody, could have a human half-life as long as 130 days Additional interim in vivo data for a first-in-class Activin E antibody shows muscle sparing weight loss alone and in combination with a GLP-1 receptor agonist iBio remains on track to submit a regulatory submission for IBIO-600 in Q1 2026 SAN DIEGO, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iBio, Inc.(Nasdaq: IBIO), an AI-driven innovator of precision antibody therapies, today announced data from a non-GLP non-human primate (NHP) pharmacokinetics (PK) study suggesting IBIO-600, the company’s novel lead asset and a potentially best-in-class long-acting anti-myostatin antibody designed for subcutaneous administration, could provide a significantly extended half-life in humans and a weight loss treatment option while preserving and promoting muscle growth.
Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among others, the ability of IBIO-600 to have a half-life as long as 130 days; the ability of iBio’s innovative pipeline of therapeutics in cardiometabolic disease and obesity to promote healthy weight loss and muscle-building; and iBio’s ability to create a pipeline of breakthrough antibody treatments to address significant unmet medical needs; iBio’s ability to obtain regulatory approvals for commercialization of its product candidates, or to comply with ongoing regulatory requirements; regulatory limitations relating to iBio’s ability to promote or commercialize its product candidates for specific indications; acceptance of iBio’s product candidates in the marketplace and the successful development, marketing or sale of products; and whether iBio will incur unforeseen expenses or liabilities or other market factors; and the other factors discussed in iBio’s filings with the SEC including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024 and its subsequent filings with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 8-K.
