- Sarepta announces plans to initiate a clinical study with imlifidase as a pre-treatment to SRP-9001 gene therapy in DMD in 2023.
- Results of the Phase 2 study of imlifidase in patients with anti-GBM disease published in Journal of the American Society of Nephrology.
- First patient enrolled in the EU post approval efficacy study (PAES).
- Announcement of positive topline data from the imlifidase phase 2 study in AMR.
- Completion of preclinical work with lead NiceR candidate for repeat dosing (HNSA 5487).

The European Society for Organ Transplantation’s (ESOT) published the first guidelines for desensitization treatment of highly sensitized kidney transplant patients.

Potential indication universe
Looking beyond transplantation, there are several other growth vectors and areas where imlifidase may play a role, including acute autoimmune diseases, gene therapy and as oncology.

Helping highly sensitized patients who cannot access a kidney
A subgroup of kidney transplant patients, representing between 10-15% of those waiting for kidney transplantation, are considered highly sensitized due to the presence of anti-HLA antibodies. For this group of patients it is extremely difficult to find a compatible donor.

Imlifidase in gene therapy - an emerging opportunity
Neutralizing antibodies (Nabs) are immunological barriers in gene therapy. We believe that imlifidase has the potential to eliminate antibodies which can bind and inhibit gene therapy, thereby enabling effective transfer of a healthy gene sequence into these patients.

Autoimmune conditions
Hansa’s technology platform may have relevance in several autoimmune diseases where IgG plays an important role in the pathogenesis. More specifically, we are investigating rare life-threatening conditions such as anti-GBM antibody disease and Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), which are both ongoing clinical programs in phase 3 and 2 respectively.

Exploration of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) as an opportunity for imlifidase
Allogeneic HSCT is a key, potentially curative treatment intervention for patients with high-risk hematologic malignancies, with over 50,000 HSCT transplants performed annually, worldwide with approximately half being allogeneic1.
